Nice to have a rarity on the Sigil. Love the card, and can't wait to exploit it in Multiplayer.

Ranma · 04-21-2009, 03:34 PM

Any chance for scans? I would be grateful.

Pyrrhus · 04-21-2009, 03:35 PM

Tainted Sigil sounds like a lot of fun for multiplayer. I'm not as excited by the other two, though tapping down creatures could be good for Limited.

Nevik Ecir · 04-21-2009, 03:35 PM

That tainted sigil + Bond of Agony in MP just made me laugh.

MarcusTorrent · 04-21-2009, 03:36 PM

Common for the Nayan Sigil? Thought it was equipment by the name, though it's pretty sweet. I like the aura's synergy by attaching it to Naya Hushblade. (I think that's how the Hishblade works; doesn't have shroud till the Sigil enters play)

MTGN00B · 04-21-2009, 03:38 PM

Not bad stuff! I kinda like that shield of the rightcheou actually, think it could be pretty sweet in limited, it fits nicely into a limited esper deck even better than bant actually.

Tainted Sigil is a semi fog for Esper Control in block.

Which card depicts the ability of Shield of the Righteous ?

sogeking · 04-21-2009, 03:40 PM

the sigil is wrong in so many ways......
why does it have to pump for each creature you have? what is the flavour?
and why an enchantement? the first sigil was an artifact
i imagined an artifact wich makes the equipped creature a 5/5 + an ability like trample or vigilance

Mr. Needlesworth · 04-21-2009, 03:40 PM

The sheild looks like it's part of the new colored loxodon cycle.

saintskeith · 04-21-2009, 03:40 PM

pretty decent actually

limited is getting all sorts of awesome goodies

ElricJC · 04-21-2009, 03:44 PM

All good, and I like the Sigil of the Nayan Gods mainly because you can cycle it cheaply if its primary purpose would be unfeasible. However, Uril likes it, so I like it

.

roussos · 04-21-2009, 03:45 PM

Lol that is actually a playable aura in limited.
You can cycle it usually but also if your opponent is tapped out you just put it on a flier and alpha-strike

.
The artifact equipement makes me think that the UB one will also have equip cost equal to 2.
That makes it playable

.

Can't wait to put that shield on a wall :P

You mean like the 0/7 wall for 1UU in M10 with that ability? (obviously vigilance means nothing)

Sheild is a beast in limited, the Sigil is cool in a casual way, though I'm sure it could have some SB or niche uses in constructed.
