We won't see spoiled cards for a couple weeks, but we may know the themes, because some store had this on their product page:
Each deck has a returning keyword ability as its main theme. The four featured abilities are populate, flashback, morph, and madness.
I hope it's true, because I never really keep the decks together, so these themes seem way better in an "incorporate the cards into other decks" way.Originally Posted by Scott

WHERE ARE THE SPOILERS!?
I need some stupid morph/manifest shenanigans card to help me make dreadnought busted again!
Better take this time to make sure you already own Masks before they break it and spike prices!

It's Thursday! SPOIL THE CARDS, COWARDS!
How does Mask work with morph creatures? Can you "cast" them face down for 0, or does it have to be the cc on the front of the card?Better take this time to make sure you already own Masks before they break it and spike prices!
You have to pay based on the cost on the front of the card. (This seems like a question for the rules section.)
Illusionary Mask's Oracle Text specifically refers to it's Mana Cost, so, it's not just the CMC, it's the actual Mana Cost. So, you, for example, can't activate Mask to cast Savannah Lion by paying. As far as I know, the card having a Morph Cost, only effects what can be done with the Creature once it is in play. Since the ability of Mask specifically refers to Mana Cost, I don't think you can ever cast something with Morph off Mask for
, since I am unaware of any Morph thing that actually has a Mana Cost of

You have to pay at least their normal cost like any other creature.
BUT! If you want to turn them face-up you can using their morph ability. They will also trigger any "when you turn this face up" ability if they had one.
Mask has no interaction whatsoever with a DFC, before anyone asks. A DFC can be cast as a face-down 2/2.
Despite being played less over the last few years the price has done nothing but go up.Better take this time to make sure you already own Masks before they break it and spike prices!
I like these guys better than the m20 ones. They’re more niche, and actually require some amount of building around and have unique effects that make for interesting deck archetypes.
The m20 ones are just sledgehammers. Good and powerful, sure. But leads to uninteresting decks

Maybe it's just because I play Rhys, but I kind of like this card. Not going to be in my deck though, because it isn't foil though.
