Tap all creatures target opponent controls. They don't untap during their controller's next untap step.
Essentially a Night's Whisper at common? I'm very pleased with that! The angel is great too, especially compared to Urza's Armor.

I think the draw spell is really good. You can target your opponent to Shock them if you have to. The angel is pretty good. Its a 3/4 flyer with a relevant ability for 4, which is nice. AND it stops bitterblossom pretty well...
As I am the one who posted them on the French website, you surely can. I PMed them to Seds.
I was going to make a thread less than a minute ago
Many people speculated Night's Whisper would be in...but it wasn't. This card is in instead. Notice it costs an extra black, but you can hit your opponent with it. This is good if you are trying to mill them or if you have Underworld Dreams out...or if they are at 2 life.

I think this set is trying to push control to use creatures to fend off aggro, rather than spells. Wall of Frost, Wall of Denial and this guy all help hold back the tide while you continue to control the board. Urza's Armor on a stick seems fine. A 3/4 flyer for 4 seems fine too.

If a source an opponent controls would deal damage to you, prevent 1 of that damage.

I like the new whisper also. What I don't like is, as you said, the push towards creatures......ewwww.
Nice! I like that the black card has two uses, and glad that it isn't splashable. The 'guardian' angel is also very nice, though it isn't quite as good as Urza's Armor because you can't play Pestilence/Pyrohemia games with it (source an Opponent controls) .
Well that certainly qualifies as a quality draw spell. I'm interested to see which archetypes make use of it to its fullest extent. Do note it can also be used as a weak form of pseudo-burn, too.

People hiss and grunt at Mark Rosewater for the state of the game. Few realize, though, that it is Aaron Forsythe who is directly responsible of the current state of affairs due to negligence as head of Magic R&D and a completely skewed view of the game as a whole.
So next time you want to make an avvy with Rosewater pissing on something, take a deep breath and consider pasting Forsythe's face there instead...
It may be more colour intensive that Night's Whisper, but it's also a mono black control card that would be in decks with Tendrils of Corruption. Don't imagine you'd be seeking out too many non-swamp lands.

(Not saying the angel is bad, just...ewww)
Last I checked, control (Lark?? Faeries??) was using creatures.
What is the difference?
Cards control decks lose in M10: Wrath, Mind Stone
Cards control decks gain: Planar Cleansing, Wall of Frost, this Angel, Silence, Harm's Way, Time Warp, Darksteel Colossus, a dual cycle that favors control, Gargoyle Castle (Not to mention they don't have to worry about manlands anymore)
Control isn't going anywhere.

Pseudo-Night's Whisper! Yes, all Necromages rejoice! The fact that you can point it at an opponent can have some very nice strategic benefits just in case, but if I am playing black anyway, I am used to bleeding for my benefits. I need to find room for this in my RB Control deck. Hell yes.
And the angel, meh, s'ok.

Is this confirmed? The manlands are out?
I'm so torn about this... the control side of me loves that I won't be beat-down by Treetop Village anymore... but the aggro side of me is really sad that I won't be beating down with Treetop Village anymore.
P.S. If you got one, play your Watchtower/Doran deck while you can!
P.P.S. If only Mutavault were gone too. It's been my least favorite manland for quite a while.
Sign in Blood + Harm's Way? Shock your opponent and draw two cards for only three (albeit all colored) mana.
Even if this DID work, which it doesn't, it's costing you 2 cards. It would basically be BBW for a weaker, cantripping Lava Spike.

The angel is out of range of Lightning Bolt, plus it completely destroy some kinds of decks (for example, some token strategies and Underworld Dreams decks), so I'd say it's possible that it sees MD play if not at least SB play. After all, it's a 3/4 flier for 4 with a GOOD ability.
So WoTC is pushing Underworld Dreams and pushing control decks to use walls.
Sounds like a legitimate return to the way things were when magic began, IMO.

I like both of them. The neo-Night's Whisper, like Harmonize (back in it's day, 2 years ago), will find itself in almost ll of my black decks. It's a suicide black must.
The Angel looks like a decent card. Not a mind blowing, ego shattering rare, but stil a good card. Slows down many of the aggresive decks out there. It even slows down the faerie deck.

It's not just very solid card draw, it's also burn!!
How many times have you used Incinerate to kill and opponent that's at 2 life, I have. Now black can do it too.
And with Underworld Dreams out, it's amazing.
And the angel, meh, s'ok.
