Return to Ravnica Spoilers: September 11th, 2012

Hello and welcome back to another edition of the emporium, it's more spoilers time with the latest spoilers revealed of course by wizards of the coast, so without further ado let's begin.


Well it seems wizards of the coast loves to spoil our game day promos super early as usual, introducing yet another hybrid card named Cryptborn Horror which is also the top 8 card for game day for this set this time around, amazingly enough it costs 1, Black/Red, Black/Red and has trample plus it enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it where X was the total life lost by opponents this turn, great if you ask me.


At least the fae aren't dead fully, introducing the 1 drop Faerie Impostor, it's a 2/1 that costs a mere blue mana, it flies as expected of a faerie and has the ability whenever it enters the battlefield, sacrifice it unless you return another creature you control to it's owner hand, seems decent honestly, but i will reserve judgment for upcoming days.


Did someone ask for a mass bounce spell, did someone ask for a mass bounce spell that only hits opponents, introducing the best Overload card so far, besides Mizzium Mortars, Cyclonic Rift which you pay 1 and a blue to bounce a nonland permanent you don't control or you can pay the overload cost of 6 and a blue to bounce every nonland permanent you don't control, did i mention it's a rare at instant speed.


Did someone order another creature tutor, in Black and Green that is, amazingly enough, this one that's called Jarad's Orders, which i might add seems pretty legit to me, for 2, Black, Green you get a sorcery speed rare that allows you to search for 2 different creature, put 1 into your hand and the other into your graveyard, not bad if you ask me.


Introducing the latest Star City Games spoiler, Growing Ranks, for 2, Green/White, Green/White you get a enchantment that lets you at the beginning of your upkeep populate, at the rare level, plus it's not legendary so having 2 or more of these things nets super value and a near unstoppable army, perhaps one of the better enchantments to date.


So, card in another language eh, well let's see it's a 2/2, translation seems to be Precinct Captain, it's a 2/2 rare human soldier, costs White, White to play and has first strike it seems, plus it generates 1/1 soldiers by dealing combat damage i'm guessing, honestly this isn't half bad, plus with stuff like Intangible Virtue in the format this is pretty good.

Well that's it for today, tommorow is another day for previews so until next time this is vergil signing off.
