Gatecrash Spoilers: January 9th, 2013

Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of the emporium, where as always during a spoiler season i'll be taking a look at all the spoiled previews for a upcoming set, today's spoilers including the final guild leader, so let's get straight down to it.


Yeah, 6 for Prime Speaker Zegana which is the simic leader this time around, she enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters where X is the greatest power among other creatures you control, also when she enters the battlefield, you draw cards equal to it's power.


Oh wow, a actual playable constructed card, introducing Frontline Medic which costs 3 and is a 3/3 with battalion but the ability which makes him shine is the 2nd one, sacrifice him and counter target spell with X in it's mana cost unless it's controller pays 3, so a Mana Leak with legs for all X spells in the format, wow, this thing is pretty good.


Biomass Mutation is another one of those hybrid cards, but it costs X, Blue/Green, Blue/Green and is instant speed plus it's a rare, where creatures you control become X/X until end of turn, where X is the cost paid of course, this gets stopped of course by the previously spoiled card, the medic with the mana leak if they tap out to cast this.


Pit Fight is sort of interesting as it's perfect for the Gruul this time around since target creature you control basically fights another target creature, plus it's instant speed, a common and costs a mere 2 mana to boot, this thing is decent for limited and should see a little play there.


Syndic of Tithes is the last card of the day, it's a 2 drop that's a 2/2 with Extort, the orzhov keyword this time around, it's a common as well so expect to see this quite often in draft in terms of the Orzhov, with that though it's time to call it a wrap, so until tommorow this is vergil signing off.
