Dang, they killed liliana in this bit too

[vsDenchal]

"Here, have some wolves." Awww! I like it when people give me stuff!

[Haiddon]

I like how they said "36 cards you can open in booster packs" and then went on to show literally the single one guaranteed to not be in a booster pack within 10 seconds

[JohnStynes]

"Your opponent can't gain life"

Fair thee well, my sweet Vampire deck

[knavenformed]

One thing I always though Magic could use is music.

There never really was any ost to keep me in, it's a big part of any media for me.

And I have to say, this piece in the video is a treat to start with.

[SuzuHotaruVt]

Magic just became the equivalent of oprah. You get planswalker. You get get planswalker.

"On the horizon"








I see watcha did there xD

[ultimasys]

"One who may not even *have* a face"

The Wanderer = Emrakul/Emeria theory is stronger than ever.

[Baby_boodle]

As someone who's played for a while, I wanted to mention that this video flavorfully and concisely goes over the primary mechanics well. Nice job!

[_donny_]

I bet when you said Tibalt first, The Professor cringed. Non of us blame him either XD

[lovetownsend]

I just got into magic last week, this is what i needed! I made my first deck, a green white CAT deck teheh

[WickedDealer]

Thanks WOTC, you finally gave me a reason to come back to the game and Update my C/Ube for the first time since Khans Block.

[mylesfrost]

I got into magic on the last set

This was EXCATLY what i needed

[toskagamingz]

Finally a Liliana plus ability that summons a zambo without side effects. HELL YES!

[ty_sylicus]

"There are 36 Planeswalkers cards that can show up in booster packs."
*Shows an image of Tezzeret.

Me: ? 🤔

[kyrios]

Dang the even the OST sounds like the final boss theme for a Final Fantasy-esque game

[poekelseele]

Some Players: "Oh no, some of the Planeswalkers can barely get Counters!"

Wizards: *Laughs in Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded*

[esworld]

36 PLANESWALKERS!? AND RARE PLANESWALKERS!? OMG cannot wait.

[GirlPainting]

I bet the story goes, the last surviving planeswalkers manage to kill bolas...who had acumulating spark after spark like a bag of M&M´s...and in his final act of menace, he rips open a permanent portal to new Phyrexia!!!! BOOOM!

[mikelong]
