From the Vault: Relics contains fifteen battle-tested artifacts, culled from throughout the history of Magic: The Gathering. This limited-edition set also contains an exclusive preview card, a mythic rare from the October Magic set code named "Lights."
Contents
* 15 Premium foil cards, including 9 with new art
* An exclusive spindown life counter
* A collector's guide
* Each card has been printed using a foil process unique to the "From the Vault" series.
* The 15 cards are all printed in the current card frame – for several, it is for the first time.
* From the Vault: Relics will be available world-wide in English only, and will have an extremely limited print run.
* All cards are black-bordered and tournament legal. This means that these cards are legal for use in any tournaments where the original printings are still legal.

(Monty) The art in the From the Vault: Relics annnouncement is not Conservator.
Correction: Star Wars taught us that George Lucas is a horrible, horrible person. And that WotC doesn't like doing licensed products for something they/Hasbro doesn't explicitly own.
THIS will be the EDH box set.
LaPille is a BIG EDH fan.
Also, yeah....Lights is def the "Mirrodin/Phyrexia Block", so the mythic from that set would make a bit of sense. (Even if the set was not artifact themed...its not like ALA was dragon themed)

The "Sol" in Sol Ring is in reference to the Sun, which is why the original art looks the way it does. This art is not for Sol Ring. This is almost certainly Nevinyrral's Disk.

It's widely known that [EDH] is very broken. Building a superdeck is quite easy. So what defines you as a player is [...] how you show restraint and creativity while still remaining a competitive player and a good sport.
the only problem with urza is that he is an oldwalker, so its abilities would be like:
+3: remove up to ten target permanents from the play
-2: win the game
-8: kick your opponents in the face, then win the game
starting loyalty: 100
I just seriously doubt Lion's eye diamond and mox diamond but i hope they are in there
Ok so list:
Sol Ring
Nev's Disk
Chrome Mox
Sensei's Top *i know i know but it fits the definition of this FTV*
Jitte? *we can all only hope*
Pithing Needle *hopefully not*
Chalice of the void
Engineered exlosives
Ravager
and 6 other bad ones cause we know they wont make them all good cards.

I can't see them giving any moxen or lions eyes in this one. Wonder what chances the money card has of being something like Mana Crypt (which would rock ....)
Woot! Preordering this tomorrow. That's almost for sure the Disk...I'm hoping for Crucible of Worlds. Top and Clamp would make sense, but they were already printed in Exiled...probably not another Jitte either, as they just printed the GP one. Anyone hazard any more guesses?

Stop wasting your time here and come to a forum that actually fosters intelligent discussion: Fires Rf Salvation
this gives the return to mirrodin a little (granted, not a lot) more credence: an artifacts-only FTV with a preview mythic rare artifact feels very much like a something that could lead into an artifact-fueled set.

Looks like it to me. Hope the rest of it is interesting as well.
If I had to guess seriously though, it's a Nevinyrral's Disk.
I used to write cube articles on StarCityGames, now for GatheringMagic and podcast about cube (w/Antknee42.)

I'm curious as to what amazing artifacts could be reprinted, since many of the good artifacts are reserved.
Arcbound Ravager, maybe?
EDIT: On closer inspection, I think is's more likely the Disk, but Sol Ring should probably make the cut.
Though Larry Niven's Disk would be nice I would assume for the awesome new art preview it would be something a little more famous.
Still want it to be Sol Ring since it wasn't in Exiled.

EDH box set? Have I missed something?
It's on the Reserved List.
However,
Mana Vault(EDIT: I meant Mana Crypt) could make it, maybe Voltaic Key.It'll have tons of EDH staples, that's what he was saying.
All it means is that the Relics will most likely be EDH staples like Sol Ring or Nevinyrral's Disk.
