    The Rack is in M10 as well?

    I can see Blightning Aggro become insanely fast and powerful. Given enough discard cards to be printed, I think that Nyxathid might actually see play. Perhaps they're printing Hymn? :P

    There's no reason to not play RGx Bloodbraid Elf now. Ball Lightning was bad enough, but with Lightning Bolt, RGx Bloodbraid is just the nutz now.

    It was rumoured a week ago, but now there is confirmation.

    This core set might end being worth buying. I think the last one was fourth, with tenth being almost good enough. :)

    Well, it is different from everything since Beta since it has at least one card that has never been printed before. So, it isn't quite the same animal as all the core sets in between. And it is having exactly the effect they have been looking to manage on all the sets in between.

    Wow, never thought I would see this happen. As a common too? You would think they'd at list bump it up to uncommon, I guess in such a large set it wouldn't be as much of a problem for limited but still.

    As far as apologies go, its a good start...I'm not sure how I feel about the rule changes yet, as I haven't really gotten to play with them, but for those who are angry, this seems to be a good move.

    They had to do this or something similar. Creatures have been creeping up by leaps and bounds over the last year. Path to Exile and Lightning Bolt make for efficient creature removal for the two colors that are supposed to be able to do that fairly easily.

    Yeah, the power creep is starting to scare me. Bob, Goyf, BoP++, Knight of Reliquary, Coatl... Creatures are getting crazy!

    They might actually make this set worth buying. Between Duress and Lightning Bolt, they just need a couple of good rares and uncommons now.

    Do you expect them to be common? I hope so, but am afraid they will be uncommon.

    Well, when they reprinted Story Circle they bumped it to a rare...so I wouldnt be surprised to see this go as an uncommon. Path was, so it would make sense.

    Path of Exile was uncommon, but Swords to Plowshares has always been uncommon. Lightning Bolt and Duress will probably be common because that's the rarity at which they play best in limited. Serra Angel was bumped to rare in seventh and in M10 is uncommon again, so maybe we won't see more abominations like rare Story Circle in the spoiler.

    Bolt as a common will fuck up drafting terribly.

    Bolt really really has to be common, because Coreset Uncommons are freakin' ugly. *shiver*

    I just wonder if a newframe Coreset japanese foil Bolt is more pimp than an asian limited or Judge Foil one.

    edit:
    I haven't drafted coreset since 8th, which was pretty fucked up, because white tappers as commons destroy everything. I hated drafting 8th, so I decided not to draft the other coresets. How about 9th/10th?

    Wtf if it's printed in commons. 3 damage instant for 3 mana (that hits both players and creatures) is the benchmark for common burn spell, and suddenly they are going to shave off 2 mana? Incinerate was already kinda pushing it, and now they are going to bump 1 more mana off?

    the new image for Lightning Bolt could be found here:

    More people to join the fury (great thing I snapped up 9 copies, because from here on the price is going to jump).

    EDIT: I almost forgotten, they're going to be Black Bordered too. So it might as well be a great idea to buy a few of those copies too for the Black borderedness.
