What are the chances that the ONLY card we know is the prerelease card?
I don't like the picture.
Oh well. Good find.

While I like the card itself as a prerelease card, the alternate art is horrible. It looks like it has male genitalia for a head.

Nice find though, thanks for the info.

Now I can never look at that card again without thinking of what you just said

Anyway, nice find, I think the original art is a lot better though.

Considering it'll be a chase rare, it's pretty exciting news. But yeah, would have been wonderful to have some new info. Not so hot on the art either...

hmmm...idk. im a little disapointed that the only card thats is spoiled so far is the Pre-Release promo. and the art is not nearly as apealing as the normal one. this art seems more similar to the one in the link http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attac...7&d=1204816447

(i dont know how to attach files...)

I can't se the image because my school blocked it, but I'll see it when i get home.

My thoughts on Demigod beign the card though - Excited because it'll make it easier to pick up what would otherwise potentially be a format defining card (based on what we currently know), plus as I intend to attend the PR, my odds of picking up a set are quite good.

On the downside - The first new card pic we get in a pretty dry rumour season (so far.... we're not that far into the season of course!) is a rehash of the only known card i nthe set. Lame.

Although I can't see the card, the promise of a creature with a massive phallus for a head with tournament playability at my disposal seems like a promising notion indeed. Can't wait for April.

My first thought?

That there looks like a chained up *****.

Boo @ Wizards for two reasons:
1) Using the only preview card as a pre-re card
2) That 'art'. Seriously. Who approved bondage ***** as foily art?

Argh, can't unsee it =.=

I was wondering for some time that Demigod can be the prerelease card. It seems I'm not alone **

Also, I don't understand the background of that pic. Where the heck is it?

ughhh UGLY PIC. I mean really really ugly, no wonder they tried to put a bag over its head and chained it up some place remote. Good card but this is a promotion? This ugly dude?

Could this really the REAL alternate art?...
It's horrible... and I don't even understand what could link the pic to the effect of the card...
For some reason it makes me think about Austin Power's recurrent jokes...

Gee, now why do you suppose they chose Demigod of Revenge to spoil in that booster?

R&D is full of teases, I tell you. I like the picture, though. It'll go great in my Prerelease card collection.
