Doesn't prove its not, just adds evidence it might not be there's a difference.

I normally call fake straight away but this looks pretty legit, one thing that stands out to me is the dings on the right hand edge and the bottom left hand corner, this would indicate the card was opened and the player was like OHHMYGAWDZ!!! and handed it to everyone else at the draft table to gawk at and it go roughed up.

This has to be real, because everyone knows that anyone who can photoshop as well as this should be doing photoshops of celebrities into pornographic pictures and selling them to tabloids and making big money.

It dies to removal.

Seems legit to me. As a Johnny, I approve of this card.

[jimmyrussles77]

Gonna say legit.

The odds of this happening twice are pretty crazy though.

[WoodWraith]

Nice. Cant wait to see more!

Unless they did it on purpose. It would seem like a good and creative way to refresh the whole spoilers thingy.

I'm not sure about the story behind this card, but I really like this card.

Also, note that the Evolve mechanic is from the Great Designer Search 2.

Anyone else catch that you could have it in play, then play any 1/1 and in response to the evolve trigger activate the mage to move its +1/+1 counter thus making the other creature larger than it... sounds like sweet synergy.

(edit) If it already had at least one counter that is.

Magic Set Editor uses the old watermarks. They haven't updated with the RTR ones.

[Sengir]

Well thats an interresting ability seen in the great designer search 2.

Fits well with simic and I can definitely see some interesting things with that.

Sorry, but that's not how intervening ifs work. The ability wouldn't trigger at all if the creature was smaller than Fluxmage.

No you can't. The ability won't even trigger if the creature enters with equal or less power than is.

I would be very surprised if the U/G one drop hybrid was not a 1/1 or 0/1 with evolve.

The uncommon one-drop cycle was a RTR thing. It isn't reappearing in GTC.

Of course, that doesn't preclude the possibility of a U/G one-drop hybrid. I wouldn't assume it, though.

I love how it kinda works out with Simic's old keyword, graft. Oh, any creature with a +1/+1 counter can do x? might as well use it on my biggest dude I played on the third turn.
