First thoughts:

Celestial Kirin - Wow.
Kataki - a letdown IMO. From the story, I was expecting something bigger.
Niko-Onna - makes sense.
Hail of arrows - what i had predicted. Seems a nice trick. Maybe a bit overcosted in some situations, but still.
Reverence - weenie stopper! cool.
Flip creature/enchantment - meh. You'd have to buid very specifically around it and even then it can easily be destroyed.

Sweet!

Some interesting stuff there. The flip-enchantment is kinda disappointing, though.

Thanks, R_E, I like most of these....but I think why the heck they make Kitsune Dawnblade? This is not good even in samurai deck...

Not really. White Weenies in extended probably needed it.

Celestial Kirrin is the sex!

Who'd have thought from the story that Kataki would be an affinity hoser? They must have finished this set before the T2 bannings, because this is going to be harsh on any surviving artifact based decks. Also, another "taxing" effect moved from blue to white in the pie.

Nikko-Onna is yet another strong enchantment killer for white. They must really hate enchantments.

Most of the others are lovely in either limited or constructed. Reverence in particular excites me, and the flipper's condition is miles more realistic than the green one.

Thank you R_E and anonymous source :grin2:

Celestial Kirin is so much better than cloudhoof... Aether shockwave reminds me of blinding light.
I have a sinking feeling that the Shinen's, while with cool names, aren't going to be as good as the ghostlits. But hey, they're common.

Ok, another Blah, card. Won't see any play

Quote:
Araba Mothrider - 1W
Creature - Human Samurai
Flying, Bushido 1
1/1
#2
This card is actually pretty interesting. Might see some play in Block WW and in T2 after Mirrodin and Leonin Skyhunter rotates out. And its a nice Limited card

Quote:
Celestial Kirin - 2WW
Legendary Creature - Kirin Spirit (R)
Flying
Whenever you play a Spirit or Arcane spell, destroy all permanents with that spell's converted mana cost.
3/3
#3
OMG!!!!! This card looks great. But its a bit prohibitive. And its Armageddon with Evermind! This Will definitively see play.

Quote:
Curtain of Light - 1W
Instant
Target attacking unblocked creature becomes blocked.
Draw a card.
#6
Neat little trick in Limited, and pretty good as a cantrip. Might see some play in Block.

Quote:
Hail of Arrows - XW
Instant (U)
Hail of Arrows deals X damage divided as you choose among any number of target attacking creatures.
Fireball in white. I love it. This card looks pretty good. A limited Bomb, but don't think its contructed Material

Quote:
Inner-Chamber Guard - 1W
Creature - Human Samurai
Bushido 2
0/2
Oo, I'm not quite sure what to think of this card. Will be nice in limited for defensive white decks, but in Constructed :/

Quote:
Kataki, War's Wage - 1W
Legendary Creature - Spirit (R)
All artifacts have "At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice this artifact unless you pay 1.".
2/1
OMG, this will make a splash in Extended for shure. This card is great. Oh wait, its another old card on a stick but in the right color and aggresively costed

Quote:
Kitsune Dawnblade - 4W
Creature - Fox Samurai
Bushido 1
When Kitsune Dawnblade comes into play, you may tap target creature.
2/3
Nice for limited, but nothing constructed worthwhile.

Quote:
Moonwing Moth - 1WW
Creature - Insect
Flying
W: Moonwing Moth gets +0/+1 until end of turn.
2/1
Another card for limited. Nice little flier.

Quote:
Nikko-Onna - 2W
Creature - Spirit
When Nikko-Onna comes into play, destroy target enchantment.
Whenever you play a Spirit or Arcane spell, you may return Nikko-Onna to its owner's hand.
2/2
A better version of Aven Cloudchaser. But even in limited only a sideboard card IMHO.

Quote:
Reverence - 2WW
Enchantment (R)
Creatures with power 2 or less can't attack you.
Oh no. OK, Nikko-Ona might find some use, if this starts popping up in BC. Thanks to Anthem this is no big deal in T2.


Quote:
Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant - 2W
Legendary Creature - Fox Monk (R)
2/2 When you have 30 or more life, flip Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant.
//flip//
Rune-Tail's Essence
Legendary Enchantment
Prevent all damage that would be dealt to creatures you control.
Can't help, but I don't like the Ascendant/Essence Cycle. I rather play Test of Endurance


Quote:
Shinen of Stars' Light - 2W
Creature - Spirit (C)
First strike
Channel - 1W, Discard Shinen of Stars' Light: Target creature gains first strike until end of turn.
2/1
[/quote]

This might be pretty good in limited. But not a constructed card again.

Nikki-Onna is uncommon, most likely, since it is in a circly with Kiri-Onna and Haru-Onna.
