The white card is definitively Fake. We have all the Names of the White cards. This isn't one of it.
The costs can be correct, but if they are it might also be a good speculation. Actually I'm expecting the same cost, to bad you didn't realize that this would also predict the cost of Ink-Treader Nephilim

Well....Ghostway - 1 hit in the orb. This sounds like a cardname, not a flavor text word.
Grant it a benefit of doubt. This must be from the same source as Tibor and Lumia, Frazzle, etc. - valid info with no exception.

The Nephilim costs are logical. There is not much left. Also, that leaves the Ink-Treader as , pretty much as we have expected.

If it is true, then the source that provided the names Rancored_Elf posted must be wrong. We had all the white names from there, check the Number Crunch Thread.

Edit: Probably a mixup, sry for my impatience. Maybe R_E's source meant Ghostway with Ghost Warden. Let's see about this.

Ghostway... eeehhhh. If it were 'remove each creature you OWN..." it would be much better "block-thematically" in a lot of subtle ways (Hunteds, Dream Leashed guys, Spawnbrokered dudes, etc). I fail to see why they didn't make it so. Honestly, I hate to get on the negativity bandwagon, but it really seems that development and/or playtesting was just really out of it for GP.

i wish ghostway is true... i can already see people wanting to build decks around this...

the colors of the nephilim seems to be logical

R_E just solved it. Conjurers Ban is actually BW, not white, this makes space in white for this card. Sorry again for my impatience.

Conjurer's Ban is multicoloured thus making room for ghostway. If only eternal witness was still around.
Ghostway still seems very abusable to me.
A strong card.

Ghostway seems like a nice card. I'm particularly intrigued about the possibility of playing it on your own turn before a Wrath...

I'm sticking by my stance on the Orzhov - their cards are good as long as they don't have haunt.

Ghostway is nicely costed. I think at that cost it's going to see play, at least experimentally, and perhaps more. I'll add this to the spoiler too! Thanks!

Ghostway makes me smile.

Block their offense, put damage on the stack, then whisk everyone away. Their offense dies and you can quite possibly alpha-strike ftw next turn.

Sweet. A mildly costed pseudo-regeneration effect that is just begging to combo with "comes into play" effects. I love it.

Interesting card, lots of applications. Run it with caryatid, wood elves, and hierarch for a cool CiP deck.

wow!! i love this card
if real this could potentially be very useful against many decks.
aswell as having a many cards that can easily complement around this card ie. pontiff, angel, hierarch

ehhe geez, hopefully without sounding too childish
WAY TOO COOL
