Default [ARB] A few Cards

I stumbled upon these pieces of paper on my way home from work today... The names and rarity are a little off, and I can't remember the exact casting cost of the second, but their effects are accurate.

EDIT: This is the art for this card.
EDIT 2: The card as provided by Urzassedatives. Thanks for the name!

Card 2 (Corrupted Sigil or something like that) 1WB?
artifact
Tap, sac ~: You gain life equal to the total life lost by players this turn. (damage causes loss of life).

The 2WWBB cost belongs to a rare sorcery that removes a player's hand from the game, along with their graveyard if I remember correctly. The flavor text reads something regarding Etherium improvements, and how you must "forget yourself" in order to be enlightened.

The UUR cost belongs to an uncommon instant that counters two target spells. I can't remember if it said "up to two target spells" or "two target spells," though.

The last art in that article belongs an enchantment that reads something among the lines of "at the end of each opponent's turn, if that player didn't play a creature spell that turn, put a green 2/2 viashino(?) creature token into play." It's rare, but no name or casting cost.

And finally, the weird snake-dude from the booster packs costs two (UG I think), is 1/1, and lets you draw a card whenever he damages the opponent.

EDIT: the whole card
Vedalken Heretic ug
Creature-Vedalken Shaman (R)
Whenever ~ deals damage to an opponent, you may draw a card.
1/1

I'll see if I can find some other pieces of paper over the week...

That would be just regular lizard tokens. I look forward to seeing the ug 1/1 that draws cards for damage, cause I was thinking of that when I saw the artwork.

All of those sound really exciting. I'm especially fond of the last two mentioned. Viashino-Blossom ftw?

I can't help the feeling that WB isn't getting anything really solid. Plenty of very fun stuff, especially for casual, but nothing backbreaking. Poor WB tokens
Everything else sounds fun though ^^

edit: Given the art of the lizard tokens, me-thinks it relates to that other artork spoiled by wizards where one Viashino is looking to be eaten by a bunch of huge crocodiles.

Shadowheart? really? haha.

The cards look ok, but I think the Enchantment Puts LIZARDs instead of Viashinos as seen on the tokens from the arcana today, so if that is right everything else would check out.

yes it would appear that the tokens match the Viashino card...

They're all okay. I dislike spells that remove people's hands from the game.

Ok..this is just so wrong in terms of the color pie. I love the effect and it is an answer to cascade spells but why red? It seems more like a UUW spell. Remember that spell from disenssion which counter all spells and gain 2 life for each spell countered this way..5cc if I am not wrong. To be honest this feels more like a mono blue card..which it should be.

Are you kidding that first card reads:
Kill all opponents bitterblossom tokens.
Kill all opponents spectral procession tokens.
Kill all opponents BFT, BoP, Noble Hierarchs, bla bla bla.
Your Blossom and Spectral tokens each get +1/+1 until end of turn.

That's friggen amazing! (I think).

Sorry I think naming decks like that is kinda childlish yet I dont know your age so Im not to judge!, plus I been seeing you talk about your shadowheart deck in other threads and it kinda reminds me of that whole anime genre.

On other News, did anybody check the orb to the words Etherium Improvements?
