I like it

Did elves finally become "evil" ??? If I recall correctly a piece of art was found awhile ago wich, in my opinion, was an elf *according ot others it was a gorgon*. Nonetheless we all seemed to agree that she was definitely B/G.

GoGo Ravnica!!! GoGo Evil Elves!!!

I hope for the same card, it would look so nice foily. If there is a new art though, I hope its by Rebecca Guay. Elves, Bop, and EoDS together with duals, painland, guildlands, and all that mana search from CHK makes a crap load of green acceleration and mana fixing. Me likey

OMG. Isn't

4 Llanowar Elves
4 Elves of Deep Shadow
4 Birds of Paradise
4 Sakura Tribe Elder
4 Sakura Tribe Scout
4 Kodama's Reach

a bit much for one deck?

Turn 1: Land, Bop (2 mana)
Turn 2: land, Sakura sac, Elf (5 mana)
Turn 3: land, Koshuko

Nasty. Too nasty?

This may sound stupid, but what about something like this:

{card name}
1
Sorcery
Add two mana to your mana pool. This mana must be of two different colors, and can only be used to cast multi-colored spells.

Yeah, lousy templating, but it's a guess.

I'm going on vacation, so I expect a full spoiler by the time I get back in a week.


1) The card is a reprint, that isn't one.
2) We just revealed the card.
Please read threads in the future before you post

Elves of Deep Shadow is currently one of those super collectable cards just for its art... they go for $2~5 each

I wonder what will happen to my Dark copies once this comes out And I hope the new art does it justice... Such pretty art... Guay would be wonderful for the artist....

For those who don't know this card was an uncommon in The Dark.

However in Ravnica it will be a common with new art.

Hope you enjoy .

GoGo Ravnica and thank you source .

Great news Bel, you're on a role with these my good friend. (Love the name: 'Belands' too, I just love it!)

We all predicted this, and it came to pass, and of course, thanks to our source!

Oh and seconded on the GOGO Ravnica!!!! It's all about making our multicolored dreams come true, baby!

Please save me from trawling through the thread and let me know if I should be demanding any apologies in writing.

Seriously, though, let's hope they commissioned Jesper Myrfors to do the new art or they release an FNM version of the original card..

So much for them only wanting one CMC 1 mana accelerating creature in T2 at a time. This, llanowar elves and birds makes three, in addition to reach and STE in the higher cost slots.

Nice reprint anyway, its a good creature and the ability fits in with the block's theme.
