Selecting 10th Edition! 

My vote goes out for Dragon Mage, but i’d be fine with either Brimstone Dragon(I’d much rather have rorix, tho. Gah, why’d he have to be a legend...) or Shivan Hellkite. I’m kinda glad they did a Dragon Vote, instead of a “huge 4-mana guy for less than he should cost” vote, as dragons are always great for the coreset.

I kinda have a hunch that Brimstone will win, mainly because of the reanimation possibilities, and the fact that he does more damage quicker than any of the other dragons.

I wonder if they’ll have a run-off vote between the top two or three choices.  My vote goes to either Shivan Hellkite or Thunder Dragon as the two dragons bringing the most card advantage.  Thunder Dragon comes with a built in Pyroclasm and a half?  That’s pretty cool for a card I’d never even heard of.  I’d vote for this guy over any of those, however:

Trogdor the Burninator 3RRB
Legendary Creature - Dragon Human
B:  Trogdor deals 1 damage to target creature with power 3 or less.
R:  Trogdor gains +1/+0 until end of turn.
4/4
And the dragon comes in the NIIIGHT!

burninating the countryside, burninating the peasants.

Ok, Husk won, not a big surprise. Boring vote this week (You all voted mindstone right? because card advantage / quality is more important than paying for a one time bear), I just hope next week is like:

Unsummon vs Echoing truth (how about both? :P)
Incinerate art vote woooooo hooo! I’m so happy incinerate is coming back!

I hope it’s true that every snowflake is unique, because I never want to see one like this again.

i want a foil vampire bat sketch B. and guardian idol is better.

I like both Mind Stone and Guardian Idol (they did reference Death Cloud in the article, did anyone else see that?  Could it be back in 10th?  Please be black’s big sweeper for 10th!).  I think I’m going to have to go with the stone because I could see myself playing it in a variety of decks unlike Guardian Idol where I would only use it in a Wrath deck or a Death Cloud deck.  Yeah, Sketch B of the vampire wolf/dog looks pretty nice.  What’s that you say?  It’s supposed to be vampire bats?!  Okay, Sketch A it is for me, then.  I’m not convinced that B is a bat, much less multiple BATS.  What’s with the Nekrataal vote from last week, while I’m on the subject of bad art concepts.  Do we really need a second card with Arctic Nishoba’s art?  I was really hoping Nekrataal could get back to his roots on that one.  At least Nantuko Husk won. 

In unrelated, but much more exciting news, there’s supposed to be a Christmas box coming out around November that will have card boxes, TimeSpiral packs, a pendant(!!!), and card dividers in it.  Maybe the book, too.  That should be exceptionally cool, I think.
EDIT:  Oh, yeah, it includes a playmat also!  Barry loves playmats.

sweet, a second time spiral fat pack, exactly what we need.

I’m not a big fan of either bat sketch, but I would choose sketch B just because it’s a more powerful composition, and it’s a fine bat if you’ve ever seen one up close.

Yes, Sketch B… as well as Flavor text B for the Air Elemental (BLECH!)

Anyway, I voted Mind Stone… even hoping that Death Cloud is back (yes, I caught that too).
I used to use Mind Stone in constructed way back when… and hope to see it back!

I like big creatures and I cannot lie
You other players can’t deny
That when a beast walks in with an itty bitty cost
And your blockers are all lost
You get removal!

While Mindstone might seem to be the more card-advantageous/flexible of the two, I just can’t see us going another 2 years without any GOOD manalands(idol counts here, because you play him for the acceleration :P)... And what’s the point of playing out a mana-accelerator if you’re just gonna use it a couple turns and then cycle it away? I just think Guardian Idol would bring more to the table this time, especially since we’re gonna have the Fellwar Stone/Star Compass/whatever reprint that would probably get played more than Mindstone anyway.

DEATH CLOUD!!!!!

Me will buy fatpack-thingy if the playmats are nice…

I will bust something very gross if Deathcloud comes back. But even if deathcloud comes back, I’d perfer the stone over the idol.

VIVA LA DEATHCLOUD!!!! THE BEST THING WE WILL GET TO P. DEED IN STANDARD ROCK!!!

I hope death cloud comes back, just beacuse itll be another way for black do deal with the untargetables. I’ll like death cloud a lot if they DONT print tron/post in 10th. im getting tired of that.

Matt

I like it when they print things like Tron/Post… it gives formats so many possibilities for decks… like White Tron. Or UW control with Mindslaver/Memnarch/W Bringer… etc. There are a few instances(*cough* izzetron *cough*) that we’d all probably like to forget, but overall I think printing tron/post-like lands is a good thing. Just not the same damn thing every set(in other words: post should be in 10th, not tron. 6 years is a long time to have the same lands to play with).

I could go for ancient tomb… Then i’d have JUST enough mana to equip my Troll with a SOFI on turn 3 :)
