Default [ZEN] Sorin Markov (Complete card in 1st post)

Well wizards has f'ed with my mind again with You Decide today on the site. Apparently, we, the players, vote on a line of text to be shown on a card that they may reveal, or at least that's what i think.
What do you think this conundrum could possibly be?

(It's at the bottom of the page)



Complete card attached.

Is loyalty something they've worked with before?

It's at the bottom of every article, I thought it was originally what we get to choose for a card but this makes more sense

Yeah, I like how they gave us ZERO explanation as to what it means, wtf.

There's a You Decide at the end of each artice, btw.

Oh, I thought it was a You Decide! as in, what do you want us to make? Because I voted artist credit to force Aleksi Briclot to do more stuff. Damn it...

It's almost definitely a preview card. How could they offer Lines 1, 2, and 3 for a card that they don't know the text for yet?

I'd recommend voting for Line 2 or 3, that will probably give us the most information. (Line 1 is probably "Flying".)

Or it could be a new mechanic that WotC wants to show off to make us go "ooh" and "aah" about for the next month or so before official preview start.

I voted for Line 1, but good thinking on Line 2.

Guys, vote for one of the lines, we gotta find out if theres a new keyword or ability!

Line 3 could just be flavor text. Vote line 2.

I'm certainly hoping it's something really similar to You Make The Card. Either that or it's about previews, which I wouldn't mind, but YMTC would be a billion times better. I voted name just for the sake of it maybe being previews.

I really hope whatever it is it doesn't turn out like You Make The Comic.

I voted line 2 because I suspected it would give the most info about the functionality of the card, pretty much for the reasons already stated. I doubt it's a YMTC, and would guess on something of a preview. -Jack

I voted rarity. having loyalty and three text lines makes it seem like a planeswalker to me so I'm going with rarity because I would like to have non mythic planeswalkers just so there is a walker i can afford to buy a play set of.
