| More stuff about Zendikar |         This is all talking about cards that will be in Zendikar. It was in an article today on magicthegathering.com.                  A card that is a two-card kill combo with a rare card in Magic 2010.         A spell capable of making a 14/1 token.         A creature that can sacrifice itself to make a planeswalker go to the graveyard.         A legendary octopus         A spell that can allow you for no mana to put a creature from your library into play.         A card with the reminder text "The land continues to burn..."         A card that allows you to pay eight mana for four 4/4 fliers         A creature whose rules text includes the phrase "you win the game."         A cycle of cards that players have been begging us to print for years.                  In addition, here are a few card names from the set:                           Electropotence         Grappling Hook         Journey to Nowhere         Lotus Cobra         Sphinx of Lost Truths         Vampire's Bite

|         There is a new land listed on MTG Salvation:Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle                 Land Rare         Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle enters the battlefield tapped.         Whenever a Mountain enters the battlefield under your control, if you control five other Mountains, Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle deals 3 damage to target creature or player.         {T}: Add {R} to your mana pool.

|         I bet you any amount of money it's the opposing duals. It's a land based set, and Onslaught is rotating. I think thats a good call, Tony.

|         Me too! Also, one of the red cards has a trap for two lands coming into play in one turn and that can't refer to only terramorphic expanse. So yeah, Tony wins the psychic award.                 (Who plays activated abilities on their opponent's end step?)

|         I'm still saying a stifle effect would be welcomed.

|
|         Just reprint Stifle I say although they will probably just give it a new name now.

|         I'm not really impressed with anything so far......         Obviously that 2/1 Blood guy goes in the same deck as Sorin Markov.

|         the white land comes ito play tapped, taps for white, and says when you control 7 or more plains during your upkeep you can bring a creature from your graveyard to play.

|         Did you guys see this one yet:Iona, Shield of Emeria         Legendary Creature - Angel Costs 3White&6 Colorless         Flying         When Iona, Shield of Emeria enters the battlefield chose a color.         Your opponents can't play spells of the chosen color.         7/7         I know the mana cost is 9 but if there is a way to reanimate from the graveyard say on turn 4 that could be cool.

|         anybody see sythe tiger?         Sythe Tiger         G         Shroud         When Sythe Tiger enters the battlefield, sacrifice it unless you sacrifice a land.         3/2                 And it's a common!

|         The Refuge lands look sort of cool, they are uncommons and come into play tapped but you gain 1 life when they come into play and they tap for friendly colors(green/red,white/blue,etc.). Also Terra Stomper:Terra Stomper         3ggg         Creature - Beast Rare         Terra Stomper can't be countered.         Trample         Sometimes violent earthquakes, hurtling boulders, and unseasonable dust storms are wrongly attributed to the Roil.         Illus.
