First thought: Retrace is flashback 2.0. I love it as a mechanic. Let's you use useless land cards later in the game for something. Unmake is awesome, and Stigma Lasher is the Kitchen Finks response card that has been needed for so long. No more primal command or finks after he goes through

edit: wait oh man, you can retrace multiple times? that is AWESOME

New mechanic: Retrace.

It's flashback, but you can keep doing it. The tradeoff is having to discard a land each time.

Stigma Lasher is my worst nightmare.

I'm so glad Unmake is a Common. Guess I'm going to have to find some Caves of Koilos now, since I'm definitely playing BW. I also like how Endless Horizons will work with Retrace.

holy crap, that's awesome. at first I thought it was like flashback and got rfg'd, but since it doesn't that one black discard is pretty nuts. now i'm kinda glad we have all of this graveyard hate in the format.

Stigma Lasher says:
Whenever [this] deals damage to a player, that player can't gain life for the rest of the game.

Does that effect only apply if that Stigma Lasher is in play? For some reason, this wording seems different to me and it sounds like even if Stigma Lasher is removed somehow, the effect would remain.

Jaelan · 06-24-2008, 11:09 PM

I am really liking the idea of Retrace. Over-packing on lands and being mana flooded has never looked so good.

Yawgmoth_Demon · 06-24-2008, 11:10 PM

Nice find! Unmake and Stigma Lasher are both sick. I like the new version of Flashback as well and the watered down Cabal Therapy.

Edit: Wait! Retrace can be done any amount of times!? I hope they know what they are doing.

I think the effect stays even if it gets removed.

Also, Doomgape is pretty cool. that + bitterblossom + 10/10 trampler for 7 + being able to sac it for 10 life when needed isn't shabby at all.

Unmake is absolutely amazing. And it's a common?!

WOW.

CTZeal · 06-24-2008, 11:10 PM

And we now know that the red/white spirit avatar is called the "Nobilis" of something.

CEKT_37 · 06-24-2008, 11:11 PM

wow....lots of cards......with such cool art i was hoping needle specter would be better (or as many expected- a liege)....hes just way too fragile

Off the top of my head....Scaepshift and Worm Harvest seems fun...sure theres plenty of better options tho

Solmancer · 06-24-2008, 11:11 PM

Five more.

JodoYodo · 06-24-2008, 11:11 PM

Stigma Lasher is CRAAAAAZY! I love it!
