Well, the landfall ability seems like something I'd morph my green deck to be centered around.

well the new machanic is something not done too often before but i can already see half the set already because of its obvious applications... just like one could see most of naya coming and bant and grixis.

Please to not reveal information not present on wizards.com?

Unless you make thread "discuss pirate lists for zendikar", then I simply won't look in that thread.

I read the pirate list for M10 before I went to prerelease. Worst mistake ever. Now I desire to have blindfold for Zendikar.

Please to allow me to continue wearing blindfold?

So you are saying that we shouldn't talk about the new zendikar?
That we may not discuss the news from mtg.

I bellieve this is a MTG discussion room


----------------- EDIT ----------------

Erh, two questions!

1: Any ideas of a deck builded to a turn 0, 1 or 2 kill? show me.

2: A combo i think might work, but i'm  not shure.
Painter's Servant and Grindstone.
Can i mill a deck with this totally? And can a land be a color?

1: There are plenty of turn 0 kills.

Vintage t1 (godhands required)

My favorites are channelball
t1 black lotus for 3 green, mountain cast channel pay 19 life cast a fireball where X is 20

also dragonstorm rush.
t1 mountain, rite of flamex 4 to get at least nine mana Cast dragonstorm storm count is 5. search for 4 kokusho the mouring star or 4 bogarden hellkites. preferably the bogarden unless you are in multiplayer.

and flashhulk.
t1 mox, island, flash into protean hulk. search library for 30 creatures with haste and attack.

2: Yes Painted Grindstone does work. it mills their entire library and tends to get them upset.

No, he's kindly asking you to make a new thread for Zendikar spoilers.

It works. The combo is played competetively in Legacy and iirc in Vintage as well.
Painter's Servant was printed in Shadowmoor which was released April 19, 2009. Take a look at what that did to the price of Grindstone on the secondary market.

There are many takes on storm combo that can win t1. Flash/Hulk can potentially win on t0, but that would require a sub-optimal build. Goblinstorm can probably also win on t1.

Turn zero means on the opponent's turn, before you draw your first card. How do you give the lotus flash?

Same as above. How do you play the mountain on the opponent's turn?

Quote:

Flash Hulk actually can win on turn zero. This involves Gemstone Caverns being played off your opening hand, plus an elvish or simian spirit guide to play the flash.

@Rarensu - It is not a pirate list, it is an actual card spoiled at a convention for preview to Zendikar.

And today Sorin Markov's cost was spoiled, 3BBB, so I think he's going to be a Vampiric planeswakler. Here's what I think.

+1 - Target creature gets -2/-1 until the beginning of your next turn.

-3 - Target player loses 4 life and you gain 4 life.

-6 - For the rest of the game, black creatures you control gain lifelink and "Whenever a creature dealt damage by this creature is put into a graveyard from play, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature."

But that's just my thoughts.

Some cool art was spoiled today. Due to request I will not disclose what was on it, but give you a link

I like them.

this is why i hate people. you ask for silly things like mana costs instead of abilities.
to find out if he was a planeswalker you chose to reveal his loyalty? instead of his name and art? his name will tell you because planeswalkers have unstyle art.

well mamga, I don't quite understand the meaning of your post, but WotC is spoiling in order of a mock survey two weeks ago that gave no directions just "You Decide" and multiple options. Nobody knew what was going on. So the No 1 result was Power/Toughness/Loyalty, so monday was spoiled with his Loyalty. Wednesday with art then Today with Cost, next monday will be spoiled the fourth result.

But still why cost or anything? is it that people like the cost as the fourth best thing of a magic card whilst skipping abilities.

I think I vote Name, but don't put me to that.

@mamga - Its just a new evil way WotC created to spoil cards...quite effective, but it only works once hehe. Of course, rumors of Vampire becoming a real tribe should be interesting...

don't worry the name still tells us many things. including his color, and whether he is a planeswalker or not.

1) Hmm, i new that one with channelball(The problem is black lotus! It's expensive), But it's cool..
And i also new the flashhulk (It's on youtube) but he kills in a difrent way (Much cooler way)
And the dragonstorm rush hehe, i have it myself. Needs a insanely lucky hand to win first round.

2) Hmm, i like ;p But i just looked at the price on grindstone! Nooo way

@mamga - I don't understand your point.

It seems combos aren't meant to be used unless you desperately want them. I just looked at a Protean Hydra online, and five dollars is a bit much to me. I was thinking of building an Extended Hydra deck, using the simic Advisors from Ravnica to continually build the Protean Hydra while drawing an immense amount of cards. I liked it, but five bucks for something I'll need a three of to build a good version kinda bums me out

For Magic online? Physical copies shouldn't cost that much. Try Cardshark or eBay.
