Doctor, my eyes, tell me what you see. I hear their cries... just say if it's too late for me.
Doctor, my eyes...cannot see the sky. Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry?

It's the same art as in Avacyn Restored, but with the same promo symbols as the other promos in the set. I guess the promos are really random to what they select.
EDIT: I guess there is a cute combo, but still not what I would call a hugely "playable" card. It is an Angel, though, so you could certainly do worse.

I agree, that combo is niche at best. But I guess those playing it can pimp their decks with additional promos now.

It's also been the preferred combo target of Cephalid Breakfast since its release. My Boo Berry list uses that exclusively.

The deck is completely fine. Also, this eats all zombies in play so it is potent for that reason as well. Not to mention the card is an angel and people love angels.
It's a nice promo, nothing to go running to the store about but a nice promo nonetheless.

Good post!
On another note, you guys are lucky to have access to these. It's the one thing I hate about living in CA.

I found a few at a local Target - boosters were 2 M13s and a M12. I bought a pack, and pulled a damn Thragtusk.
I'm a little bummed that the same art is used - the original art is seems borderline considering the fact that the ability that exiles Zombies and resurrects your graveyard.
I would have loved to see another artists interpretation of the card,...
These randomly appeared on the Walmart shelves again.. I bought two of them, I'm going to open them in a bit and see what packs they are.. I was kinda hoping for at least 1 SOM booster in each based on the first post but now that I've read further I'm thinking it could be just about anything. Btw it was $10.89 for these, at three boosters and a promo it's cheaper than individual packs, just hoping they aren't total crap sets

The card reads A9 as its number in the promo set.
The packs inside are from SOM, m13, and DKA.
I found them here in Albuquerque, NM.
I'll try to post a photo later on.

Most likely it looks exactly the same but its has a different expansion symbol.
The Terastodon here was the last one I saw in one of the 3 pack dealies.

If this is A9 which ones are still missing?
Eww SoM? I hope my Wal-Mart has at least Innistrad or Avacyn restored.
I will be getting this though either way just to have one.

By playable you mean fringe sideboard in 1 archetype?
I mean the central card of an archetype.

Are you sure you aren't confusing this with Angel of Serenity?

Huh. Good on it, I guess.
...And just won Grand Prix Nagoya.
At mine, it was 3 M12 packs. I cracked a Dragonskull Summit & threw the rest out.
