First card for the new set has been spoiled:
http://media-dominaria.cursecdn.com/...9404933380.jpg
Saheeli's Artistry :4::u::u:
Sorcery (Rare)
Choose one or both -
- Create a token that is a copy of target
artifact- Create a token that is a copy of target
creature, except it's an artifact in addition
to its other types.
Looks like the Planeswalker character the set will be following is named Saheeli Rai.
So we're creating stuff now instead of putting a copy of stuff into play.
Yes, this has already been confirmed: http://hopelessly-vorthosian.tumblr....tokens-will-beQuote:

But why not just use MetamorphQuote:

EDIT 2: I can imagine better things to do than copying a Sundering Titan, though. How often do you need to kill three of every basic land?
You get TWO sundering titans if you copy one in play and if your,opponent tries to kill one, they lose their lands againQuote:

Master of Etherium - pay 6 - have at the very least 3 5/5's in play.
Precursor Golem - pay 6 - copy spell twice(?) - end up with 9 golems total?
Solemn Simulacrum?
Ashen Rider lol
You only get two copies of the same thing if it is a artifact creature (you could just copy an artifact and a creature though)Quote:

No, no contraptions in this set. There will be Vehicles though.
New planeswalker/story details from the mothership.

Dovin Baan is a Vedalken 'Senior Inspector' for Kaladesh's World's Fair.
God DAMNIT! Damnit, damnit, damnit!Quote:

Ahhhh damnit. :frown:
Edit:
Reading through a bit more, it looks like the 'establishment' on Kaladesh, of which Dovin Baan is a part, are the ones that killed (maybe?) Chandra's parents and caused her spark to ignite. I'm sure that will cause drama within the Avengers.
Humans and Elves confirmed on the plane. It appears Vedalken will be there, and it mentioned gremlins... Should that be assumed to be goblins?
So that means that it won't predate the ignition of Chandra's spark. Laaaame. So does this mean we get to look forward to each future set putting out the Gatewatch Signal and no more independent planes? I get that it's Chandra's home plane and all, but come on.Quote:

They reach out to Chandra who then convinces the Gatewatch that a regime-change is necessary, or she just works in secret to assist her folks.
Am I doing it right? I forgot to work the Eldrazi in there somehow... :rolleyes:
An artifact matters set may point more to the Phyrexians. Maybe during the course of his inspections he finds some of that greasy Phyrexian oil.
It would be interesting if he might be something like 3 CMC, UUR. I don't think there has ever been a 'Walker with double one color, single other. There has been "clamoring" from the "community" for a UR "Artifacts matter" Planeswalker, so I am guessing he'll probably be it.Quote:
