Ox
Haste 4/2
end of each player's turn if no creature attacked put a fury counter on Ox and it deals damage equal to number of counters to that player.

Maybe the core set/innistrad check lands?

they're monogamous, while all the partner legends are really more of the swingers type
It'll be some subset of Lorwyn tribal duals, allied fastlands, and painlands -- i.e. stuff that's plane-bound and so can't typically be reprinted in Standard anyway.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Isn't Brushland like 20 bucks now because of Bant Eldrazi?
I don't play much commander but these products tend to excite me because it s chance for WOTC to make some sweet cards without having to worry about breaking Standard or some other shit. So spoilers are off to a good start. It also seems we will get a good helping of dual lands in these decks per Ethan's article. Extra shocks into circulation for every deck (especially if there is a Domain sub-theme in the decks)?
The marketing does seem to suggest every new legendary card is going to be foil though. Fuck that shit if true
Now I'm thinking they are untapped duals that don't have land types
Hot Lake
Land
T: add R or U to your mana pool
That's too good for standard, but are unplayable in Legacy/Vintage.

Really hoping for a Phyrexian Altar reprint in one of these... Pipe dream?
RE: Only foil Legends is kinda lame. I really don't like foils
Otherwise psyched, though - love the Flanking guy, but kinda wish he was White Blue. I hope there's more Flanking in the other cards. Or a new card with Provoke?

People called Romanes they go the house?
I've admittedly been a wee bit out of touch due to school, but this is some bonkers-ass-shit they're trying to defend.
At the VERY least, it's rules-lawyering to an absurd degree.
And the video doesn't do him any favors at all. Literally shows him picking up his graveyard, moving it....then putting it back.
And then his excuse is 'my opponent never called the trigger, and wasn't paying attention, thus the burden of proof is on him'.
Like, what the hell.
At least the new commanders shown are pretty cool n such.
I don't think they'd ever print these.

I could buy the argument that he was angle-shooting as opposed to outright cheating, but neither of those have any place in this game and neither should be tolerated.

They're reprints, they're not new lands.

I mean forget original art, it's only ever been reprinted as a Judge promo and that was 15 years ago, in the original card face.

Those are very playable in Vintage and Legacy.
So let's say someone were to go to the cardhoarder booth, put $20 on the table, and ask for a Torrential Gearhulk.
Would they be justified in taking the Gearhulk and the cash back? I mean, cardhoarder never verbally confirmed the sale. No reason not to just assume you're getting the card for free.
... That's how this defense sounds to me. Picking up your graveyard is acknowledging the trigger as much as placing a $20 on the table is acknowledging a sale. You can't just take that back because the other party failed to say "yup, this happened."
Fuck I really hate playing in a hyper competitive commander meta. If you're not at 6+ mana turn 3 or able to combo off any given second you don't stand a chance. Even having a fun game turns into 4 people playing solitaire.
Kind of over this damn game and it's bullshit

Or bringing a hyper competitive deck to a casual table and having to hold back so as to not spoil everyone's fun.

I only noticed now that Bruse Tarl is an ally.
Pretty good. Combined with Silas Renn you could make an interesting Bug modular, counters matter deck.
:O neat, I hadn't noticed.. I have a 5c allies edh deck, but that would be pretty cool if his deck was an Ally sub theme.
Totally agreed. To me it's an equivalent to an offsides where you preemptively act to cause a misplay, in this case Kent removing his graveyard is basically acknowledging the trigger and baited his opponent not to declare it.
I don't agree with the pitchfork mentality towards the store though.

My favorite part of Commander now is how they're making card versions of story characters who never got one.
Xantcha when?
I like that they're making these. I just hope future cards like this have the right identity.
Like, I know the flavor and the story about how they dropped off including black in their identity when the Dragons timeline took over. I just hate that he's called "Last of the Abzan" when the color identity of that tribe includes white, and the card doesn't. You can't use him as an Abzan commander. Which is stupid.

There are a bunch of Artifact Cycle characters I'd love to see as Legends.
Xantcha, Tocasia, Gix, Tawnos, Ashnod, Glacian, Yawgmoth...
Maybe aura and equipment interaction, aka Voltron.dec? Since Black sucks at both of those.

It's hard to think of a "theme" that covers four colors, but I just really hate Group Hug (at least of the kind described; Zedruu and Nekusar are cool because their "Group Hug" effects obviously benefit them most and their decks are rarely built around letting the game get out of control).

She's female and she was killed by Silumgar and Ojutai alongside Shu Yun. I like the idea that she's GB because Daghatar abandoned Abzan and he's monowhite.
I get the feeling that Return to Tarkir will be ally color Dragons vs. enemy color Khans for control of the clans, so Abzan being GW vs. GB makes sense in that dimension.
But yeah, it'd be like naming a guy "Biggest Baddest Gruul Dude" and making him mono-green. I would have gone with "Last Khan of (Abzan Place)" or something.

Bruenna now
Board management for blue and white, wonder if each color gets something?
Meh, it's okay I guess. Prefer Cyclonic Rift and Crush of Tentaclez.
Eh. His activated ability gives him the full identity.

Ugh blue doesn't need more of this lol

These Undaunted spells will go great in Timesifter decks.
More people should play Timesifter.

Guessing those took 80% of the art budget.

I think partner is kind of dumb. Do non partnered commander decks get to draw extra cards every few turns to compensate?
