Time Traveling and Fate Reforged
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

So I keep hearing a lot about time traveling with Fat Reforged. If this be true then I hope we get some new time spells. It'd make sense considering they printed Ugin's Nexus in KTK.
We might see Time Warp get reprinted or even better, a new Time Reversal. Oh my god that'd be awesome o3o Anyone else wanna speculate with me?

I'm sure we'll see SOME kind of time spells in Fate Reforged. It only makes sense given Ugin's Nexus and the time traveling. It's probably a good assumption we'll find something like Time Reversal seeing as we're going back in time to undo certain things.

My opinion is it may be more like Time Spiral block with the few oddities created by time travel, repercussions, like in planar chaos.

The printing of Ugin's Nexus does not necessarily indicate anything about what cards may or may not be in Fate Reforged.
"Oh man, they printed Helvault in Dark Ascension, so Avacyn Restored must include colorless artifact ramp to go with it!"

Rosewater HATES color pie violations, and all of the questions that came from the planar chaos color pie shifts. i doubt they revisit that kind of shift any time soon.
calling it now, Topsy Turvy black border reprint!

I forget where it was stated but colorless, maybe basic-like, are coming in khans block. So there may be a semi-heavy themed colorless coming.
On another note I wasn't aware of that, if they do go a different route what consequence(s) will happen when time travel hits, assuming there are repercussions to their actions?

@CrazyLittleGuy: In case you didn't notice, the printing of Ugin's Nexus wasn't exactly the strong point to support my statement, but a side one. The main point was time traveling and how one has gained the ability to surpass time or rewind it (in a sense). Since Fate Reforged is going back in time, it seems logical to get time spells.
I honestly wouldn't mind some pie color shifting like Planar Chaos. It was a cool set and so unique. However then we're combining three things that made blocks unique. 3 color combinations was Alara, hybrid mana in Shadowmoor/Eventide, then color pie shifting in Planar Chaos. Either way I'd be excited for some color shifting (give us a green counterspell :P)

I couldn't help bursting out laughing when I read "Fat Reforged". XD
Anyways, a new Time Reversal sounds awesome for my Neku EDH deck and I hope it gets something out of this. :3

UmbrotheUmbreon - Aside from Guttural Response?
Also just because there is time travel doesn't mean there are time spells. And it's been confirmed that hybrid is going to play a role in FRF based on Yasova Dragonclaw's card. Hybrid is probably a way for Wizards to design a set that goes well with a Wedge set and with another set that might not have any gold themes at all.
WovenNebula - It wasn't said that we're getting a colorless basic in Khans, but Aaron Forsythe said at PAX AUS that they might have figured out the colorless basic land problem. But he didn't say it was going to happen in Khans.

Your right, I couldn't remember where I saw it and the exact details. Some speculation tho is that it may be in Khans because of Ugin so I conjured up my own truth from bits and pieces. Lol, my old age beginning to show.

Yes, aside from Guttural Response JWiley129 :P
Well that's why this is all speculation is it not? I never said it was confirmed oor that it WOULD be, just what I think.

My theory has been for a while that we'll lose 1 color each block, ie tri color then bicolor then mono color

if it takes place 1000 in the past i believe that makes its pre-mending

Everyone who has said that Ugin's Nexus will not be relevant to this block could be right. Often times Wizards make cards that are not necessarily meant to impact the current state of standard. The card might not even be relevant until "Blood/Sweat". Why this would be the case for a card about extra turns in a block about time travel I don't know. It could also be that they printed the card so lore purposes. They needed something that would bring Sarkhan back in time and now they have it.

Time Walk is on the reserved list so it won't be reprinted ever. try again. LMAO

I think Maro said that development thinks Time Warp is too strong for Standard. And oh yeah, Fate Reforged takes place in the past. Around 1000 years in the past to be exact, right around the time that Ugin and Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker had a little fight.
