To be honest, I'm reluctant to. Users that do are doing so at their own risk. For now, it's the file itself that really worries me (hence why I'm not kiboshing the leak altogether), but I'm not entirely sure just how risky the images are.

Hopefully not too risky. I'll take them down if WoTC asks me too... at this point its out there though... and sites have been spoiling images for years without reaction. I've taken down the god book because it just doesn't make sense to have it up there...

A part of me thinks this may have been done in order to calm the "BAN JACE" talk down. Seriously. Now we can go two weeks of people seeing Caw-Blade continue to dominate, but...I don't think there will be serious "OMG SO BROKEN NEEDS TO BE BANNED" in those couple of weeks. Just a thought.

this would be a really cool and clever ploy by wizards if this was all fake,like a good old fashioned switch-a-roo.

Yes and No to the sites spoiling images. Sometimes Wizards will give them cards and sometimes they're stolen mental property.

Wizards can permaban you from sanctioned events and/or threaten litigation.

Damn, wish I could see the current reaction at the WoTC offices. Can't imagine they're too happy right now.

What an awesome set though.

Yeah, I feel really bad about them losing a couple of weeks worth of 'mystery & surprises* and having their new set hyped up and getting people to throw disproportionate amounts of money at them for cardboard that is inherently worth pretty much nothing in material value

Someone's getting fired for sure though. I'm sure they have a means of seeing who accessed what file and when.

Exactly. Believe me, you do not want to be on the wrong side of WotC when it comes to leaks of this nature. Players have been discharged from all sanctioned play, sites have been threatened with shutdowns, people have been sued. And I'm sure they've fired some from their staff.

Don't get involved if you don't want to take on the risks.

Do you even realize how much effort that would entail??

Consider all the NPH cards 99.999999999999% spoiled and confirmed.
to tell the truth, I was skeptical until about... 1 minute ago, when I found out the source.
Not a fan of the duress, but I guess there's not much I can do about it.

Not as many black infect creatures as I would have liked to of seen. If we draft this first its going to be much harder to justify going infect.

Hold on Ohms, not everyone here knows about Godbooks and whatnot. I wasn't sure until I heard that was the source (which confirmed it for me).

Well, this is certainly going to be a very, VERY interesting draft environment.
