Today, from the same ebay auction as the last cards, we recieved close-up scans of some of the cards we had seen as well as some new ones! Come on in and check them out!
*Update*
An Akroma, Angel of Wrath in the same style as these cards was shown on an ad on Adult Swim. This confirms all the cards we have here, as well as proving her to be in the set!
Before I show these to you, I want to make something clear.
These are REAL. They've been analysed, art checked and looked at, and they have been confirmed real. There is an extremely, extremely small chance of them being fake. If you are going to cry fake on this thread, you better have a darn good explanation for doing so. Yes, some of the cards are a little fuzzy in some areas. This is because of file size reduction and the way the cards were taken pictures of.
Now, onto the cards.
Enjoy and discuss!
Edit:
A purple expansion symbol Akroma in the same style as the reprint cards we have was shown on a ad on Adult Swim. This confirms all the cards we have here, as well as proving Akroma to be in the set!
If you have ANY questions about the purple expansion symbol, refer here to look for your answers first!
They seem a little off, still. I'm sorry, I can't shake of that strange feeling that something's not right... I'm sorry... It might be me in denial, but yeah...Consistency apparently is a weird issue to Wizards.
Well,I do mean the reprints the Time Spiral cards are awesome
Those old cards are one of the most redicilious things ive ever seen they wouldn't make the old font they haven't done that since mirrodin. even when they remade cards they didn't do it in the world champ decks or in cold snap and thier not going to do it now clearly those purple things have been altered why else would they be purple.

Don't make a post like this again on this thread or you will recieve an infraction.
Well I guess that crpulent corpse kinda confirms the rumor that creatures with suspend would be shown coming through a "frozen wall".
As well I like the Drifter il-dal card, not only is it awesome, but it kinda redifines the image of shadows as the grotesque things they were back in the day. (and even though the stronghold overlord didn't quite look like one of the old shadows, still looked dark and grotesque to me lol)
Sweet! Awesome array of cards. I actually didn't notice the reprints were in the old frame till I read some of the previous posts. Still wonder how they will get distrubuted, but I'm liking Time Spiral.
i know they are real, butt doesn't sengir autocrats creature type seem look dumb? it's yust a human, not a minion anymore, so hoe does not have any skill or class or something?...

These are wicked awsome. I wonder how you get the purple expansion cards?

Upon taking up the sleeping habits of Keith Richards (Which involves sleeping upside down like a bat to gain immortality),the only people left after the apocalypse will be Me, Keith, cockroaches, and goths and emo's. Man, its going to be a long eternity.
Best guess on the purples, they come one to a pack, like the Coldsnap basic lands. I'd just like to know if they are going to be legal or not, since that would TOTALLY screw with the play envionment and the secondary trade market.
I think that these cards are kinda cool and that they are bringing back some old cards..... I think that Akroma will be making a comeback and in purple.....
Also I think that they will be legal in standard, or there would be no point to reprint these cards. It looks like they have their own set number.... I dont know if there will be a seperate booster or maybe included in the set itself..... I am excited though.....
It seems reasonable that the "new" cards (the ones in the new frames) are real, unless the faker is an inconcievably good artist (or this is a trick by Wizards, which is unlikely).
If this person has real cards that haven't been spoiled, then it seems that there is no reason for him to also create fake cards (the old-bordered cards with purple expansion symbols).
However, it is ridiculous to think that Wizards would undermine the new frame just to drive home the point that there's something goofy going on involving time. This reason alone still compels me to call shenanigans, and I will do so until there is a better source than Some Guy With Photoshop.
And shouldn't Consecrate Land have reminder text for Indestructable?
Hmm, very odd. Apparently I can only see the images that have the cards: Word of Seizing, D'avenant Healer and Ignite Memories. The rest of the 4-card images aren't there. Does anyone else get this problem or know how to solve it?
Try refreshing the page a few times. Otherwise, I don't know.

Drifter il-Dal is definitely a nice common for Blue, and something they alluded to (going back and taking older ideas, regardless of today's definition of the color pie).
D'Avenant Healer will be a neat card to pick up in limited, and I think the purple cards will most likely replace a common slot in packs (1 rare, 3 uncommon, 10 common, 1 purple). They will in all likelihood be standard- and limited-legal.
It's interesting that noone has noticed that the "old" cards have the number x/121 and the others x/301...hmmmm, odd, isn't it?
Of course those cards are fake! Get a grip!
To differentiate further between old and new. These are real.
Please dont double post. Use the edit function located in the bottom right hand corner of posts instead.

The reason is that the old cards are part of a different numbering system then the new cards in Time Spiral. This may have to do with how they are inserted into the set, which is something we don't know yet.

Well, I was thinking of ways to prove they were fake and so I remembered the set number... and so yes, I noticed the x/121 and 301 thingy... I dunno, maybe they aren't fake, but at least answers that distribution question. I believe they will be distributed seperately. Maybe a special booster addition or something for the Fat Pack. No body has mentioned the Fat Pack Idea... Much less the Fat Pack in itself? What does nobody buy Fat packs? I love them.
in regards to the purple set...i remember a while ago i read somewhere about time spiral being a four hundred something card set, and once gemstone caverns was spoiled that rumor was forgotten because we could see the 301 as the total cards in the set. but i think maybe the 400 card theory is right seeing as how we now have 121 more cards. Time spiral also seems way to small by itself.
Well, while I'm still skeptical about the purple symbol, some of those cards seem quite interesting, Clockspinning is a very nice trick you can reuse to stunt the opponent's suspended cards or mess with their +1/+1 counters and whatnot.
Drifter il-Dal seems quite exciting to me, not only looks like an excellent common for limited, I believe it could have Constructed use too, a 2/1 with Shadow for just U is really efficient, even if he annoys you by tying up one land to pay for his upkeep every turn.
Such as the fact that none of the words Mindless, Whip, Withered, Shadowmage, Consecrate or Autocrat appear in Orb of Insight? Oh, and Eye appears four times, all four on Evil Eye of Urborg.
Its also been confirmed that none of the reprints show up in the orb, because technically they aren't in the main Time Spiral set, even though they show up somewhere, they are numbered differently then the set.
The new cards may be real, but the reprints are fakes.
This isn't the case. What sense would it make for this guy to have real Time Spiral cards, then just for kicks create fake old cards and throw them in? Either the cards are all real or they are all fake. In this case, it is the former.
The auction got canceled/deleted. Could this be a reason for us to believe that they are fake?
The seller said he was going to pull them down because they "Caused quite a stir". One can interpret this however he or she wants, however its likely he got a message from Wizards which actually 100% proves them to be real if that is the case.

The reason they wouldnt put the reprints into the Orb is because it would be way too easy to write a script to check every name and we would pretty insantly have a list of every reprint.
Cromatic Star seems weird to me since it is so close to cromatic sphere but not quite the same. I can't think of any reason to use the different wording aside from making it not work in one of the vintage doomsday stacks that uses the spere and Yawgs Will but it just seems like a weird choice of wording.

The different choice in wording fixes some problems with the original (Namely, what happens if I want to play a Panglacial Wurm from my library using a Chromatic Sphere?) while making it better, because now you can just play it and sacrifice it to something like, oh say, a Arcbound Ravager to draw a card.

I like how the Dal is a psuedo Spindrift Drake.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH EBAY AUCTION!!!!!!!!!!
Note to self: Your mafia theories are usually wrong, so don't act on them.
Also I think that they will be legal in standard, or there would be no point to reprint these cards. It looks like they have their own set number.... I dont know if there will be a seperate booster or maybe included in the set itself..... I am excited though.....

(Many Thanks R&Doom)

Neither Konda, lord of Eijango, Dark Depths or any of the Myojins have reminder text for indestructable.

On the contrary, it may be reason to believe that they are real - Wizards could have threatened to sue the guy if he didn't cancel.
