Yesterday, over at MTGS, there was a major leak and 20 cards have been supposedly spoiled. Among them is the next PW: Karn. Here is the card's translated text: Karn the Released Mythic (mana cost) 7 Planeswalker - Karn +4: Target player exiles a card from his or her hand. -3: Exile target permanent. -14: Set aside all non-aura permanents exiled by Karn, then restart the game. After that, put into the battlefield under your control all cards set aside this way. (loyalty) 6 Also, a new feature of the set includes a new type of mana that can be paid with a color or 2 life. This is shown in all colors and even on artifacts. Pictures will be in next post. Here is the link for the translation of the cards along with the pictures of them. http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=313754http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showthread.php?t=313733

ok, If Phyrexian pall (you don't lose the game for having 0 or less life. as long as your life is zero or less, damage to your life is treated as though the source had infect) is a real card, combining it with the circles of protection and a stall deck would make it own... dude, I can't wait for this set now, I have some REALLY nasty ideas now... ^_^

Yah know, I always root for the good guys. I always have.
But I dunno, I'm kinda diggin' on New Phyrexia.
Phyrexian mana looks innovative, playable and well, awesome.
Phyrexia has embraced all five of the colors, making it less single minded and animalistic, and more like a society and a culture. A culture spread by infection and destruction, but a society nonetheless.
So yeah, I guess you could say that I've gone to the dark side on this one. But the dark side has cookies, and I never cared much for Mirrodin anyway.
As long as phyrexia doesn't spread to Ravnica or Alara, me and New Phyrexia have a live and let live relationship.
If Phyrexia goes to those planes. I'm torching Wizards of the Coast.

Matias-Lord of Crows Now that seems that phreyxia is back in full swing, maybe wizards will go back to dominnaria. blaugh I hope not. Center of the Multiverse or not, Dominaria has had so many sets revolve around it I doubt we'll see it again. At least, not for a very long time. If you read the books, you know that Ravnica has become the unofficial center of the multiverse, at least for social interactions between planeswalkers. I would be surprised if we don't revisit Ravnica sometime soon. And what a welcome revisit it would be.

But the thing about Domainaria is, it's such a huge plane, and wizards hasn't even covered the most advanced part of it yet, I forget the area's name but from what was said on the magic wiki, they have even invented basic firearms. But yes, a return to Ravinca would be nice, and a good reason for me to start using my Dimir and Rakdos decks again.

Im not that happy(but i like it) about the new mana symbol.
I teach a lot of kids how to play magic, and things like this make it harder becauase its all they will play for a couple months.
i know how hard is it to tell them Pay two life for each symbol OR the colored mana for it?
but trust me its really really hard to explain mecanics like this to them.
as far as new ravnica and new dominaria visit?. the new set is called innistrad or something. And the picture with lilliana and the title looks very gothic. i think its gonna be a new plane, and maybe the visit to a old plane n was just a once in a while type of visit. but who knows I could be veryvery wrong with this assumption

Perhaps we'll find out who the hell the Raven Man is if this is Lili's plane. Lili's web comic I think that revisits are going to happen again. I think that overall Scars of Mirrodin was a success. And with the popularity of other older sets I can't see why Wizards wouldn't want to revisit beloved planes. I think we'll see more revisits, they'll still be few and far between, but I think they'll happen.

A ravnica revisit would be epic, and probably give me some decent reasons to pull my boros cards out of retirement. I wonder what they're gonna come up with next though... Some of the planes wotc has come up with have been interesting.
