[TS] Japanese mag: Phthisis, Pentarch Paladin, Urza's Factory

Charlie · 08-31-2006, 12:27 AM

Magazine pages are against the rules to post.
Look to the fifth post for card images.

From the above cards, only 3 are new, and the image is quite blurred, so I will just post what I could read here:

??? Paladin
2WWW
Creature- Human Soldier
Flanking
When ~this~ CIP, choose a color.
WW, T: Destroy target permanent of the chosen color.

Urza's Factory
Land- Urza's
T: Add 1
7, T: Put a 2/2 Assembly-Worker into play.

???????
3BBBB
Sorcery
?????????
(Unknown keyword) 1B

eulib · 08-31-2006, 12:30 AM

[Edit1] I fixed some text. Assembly-worker is artifact.
[Edit2] Card name is fixed with SimianPa's informations.
[Edit3] OK. Phthisis.

[Edit4] Pentarch Paladin is Knight. not Soldier.
[Edit5] When -> As (Paladin)

Translation:

---
Pentarch Paladin
2WWW
Creature- Human Knight
Flanking
As ~this~ CIP, choose a color.
WW, T: Destroy target permanent of the chosen color.
3/3

Urza's Factory
Land- Urza's
T: Add 1 to your mana pool.
7, T: Put a 2/2 Assembly-Worker artifact creature token into play.

Phthisis
3BBBB
Sorcery
Destroy target creature. The controller of that creature lose life equal to the total of that creasure's power and toughness.
Suspend 5: 1B
---

We already know all other cards.

Thanks guys! Very nice!

It seems like Tron making 7, plus this land, is the "theme" here, but I don't know how good that is, persay. I suppose running a deck with 4 Mishra's Factory, 4 Urza's Factory, 4,4,4 Tron pieces could work... but is it worth it?

The black card is pretty sick

energythief · 08-31-2006, 12:35 AM

AWESOME!!!!

1) We have Eastern Paladin, Western Paladin, Northern Paladin and Southern Paladin... maybe a new Paladin (center of the compass sort of thing, perhaps)? Also, it should be mentioned that it looks like a 3/3.

2) I LOVE that this pumps out critters if the Tron is assembled.

But, the card seems expensive.

3) Blue field in the art would indicate suspend, I think. EDIT: Translation posted at same time. Blue field confirmed as suspend now, dontcha think?

Attached are just the new cards.

Edit: Might "Tuberculosis" really be "Smallpox??!"

Edit2: I guess Terramorphic Expanse isn't really so new, so disregard that one.

Cruz · 08-31-2006, 12:39 AM

Nice find, Charlie.

I guess the Urza's Factory is a homage to his brother's, even though it's more control-oriented than the original one. Remember Stalking Stones? This one costs one more mana and makes smaller tokens, but is it reusable. Plus, it interacts even better if you add the other Urza's to the mix. (Then again, what doesn't?)

Not sure about that new Paladin. 5 mana seems too much, IMO.

~~Can anyone translate the other one?~~ Nevermind

EDIT 2: 100th!!

bobspil · 08-31-2006, 12:40 AM

Nice cards. The soldier is very strong and tuberculosis could have potential as it can be very anoying to play against.

Thanks for the info

BlackHearted · 08-31-2006, 12:43 AM

I don't like the black suspend spell, but the Paladin and the Urza land are cool. I really like the reusability of the urza land though, and that a fully assembled tron can pay for it

Volcanon · 08-31-2006, 12:43 AM

Factory looks hot. Before anybody says "OMG SEVEN MANA", don't forget that T2 is slow nowadays, as it should be.

Bobby Corwen · 08-31-2006, 12:45 AM

i must say that it's a shame mishra's factory is so much more efficient

I suppose the assembly worker is an artifact creature token

ferro_man · 08-31-2006, 12:45 AM

i'm liking the paladin
i always liked flanking, and paladins

and the ability to become the missing anti-blue paladin makes it even better AND it can hit all permanents of the chosen color...not just creatures

Phthisis is going to be painful if it actually ever gets cast
lose life equal to power and toughness?
its crazy

eulib · 08-31-2006, 12:47 AM

Yes. Assembly worker is artifact token. I fixed some text.

SimianPa · 08-31-2006, 12:48 AM

Nice Find! Great translations,but just some thoughts-
1) Pentarch Paladin is probably the name (pentarch=1 hit, noun, a govenment of five parties)

2) Pthitisis=1 hit, it is a tuberculine mass of the lungs.

edit- this is in response to eulib's translations above.

edit2- the spelling is actually phthisis for any of the number crunchers out there.

Infernal Tiger · 08-31-2006, 12:51 AM

The new black card actually seems decent to me.

Forgotten_Hope · 08-31-2006, 12:52 AM

Wow... let's uh... wait 5 turns to kill something that might not even be there.

Honestly suspend on CK is stupid.
