What's the source? There's nothing over there at Salvation and the Sword wasn't among the spoiled Japanese cards.Originally Posted by Nidd
Um, is that real? I feel like they're encouraging mono-colors which is more boring in my opinion. If this is real, I can't believe they printed free land destruction on a creature that can't be removed for the most part.
Must have!
Edit: False alarm I think. My photoshop senses are tingling.
Got it from this site: *click*
The editor said that one if the cards is a mockup, but, to be honest, I can really see them print that Sword. Maybe it's also in the spoiler thread over at MTGS, but I honestly can't be arsed to look through 50+ pages - has someone followed the thread since the beginning and can confirm the the sword?
Or could someone check it whether it's shopped or not?
This looks like a job for me.

Definitely fake. If you read the blog, he says "One of these is a guess a friend of mine made at what it would do. I think I’ll stir the pot a little and have you guess which." Almost 100% sure it's the Sword.
EDIT: Too slow, but I can confirm there's nothing over at Salvation.
The art looks legit to me.
The art was spoiled a while ago as a wallpaper.
I call fake until we get the real spoiler.
Ah, alright. Thanks for clearing that up.
I agree it's better to wait for more evidence before jumping to conclusions.
The Sword is fake. Guy said so.
“It's possible. But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.”

That Sword was unrealistic to begin with. Wizards hates LD so much that they won't even bring back Stone Rain, let alone provide a reusable Wasteland every time the equipped creature connects with a player.
The same Surging Chaos on Salvation.
As if Wizards never contradicted themselves.
This looks like a job for me.

I was seriously worried for a bit. That would be so totally busted it's not funny.
Karn is just confusing. It's strange to have an ability like that. I really want to see an English version to see if it still has that "restart the game" part on it. That's just weird. Not like Wizards to give us cards that make the game go longer. If it's true, I'm buying myself a few foils. I loved Shaharazad.
Though if you start a game with Emrakul in play, for example, the game will likely end pretty quickly. Giving the opponent a draw 7 makes it unplayable. Just my opinion though.
I'm excited about the R/W sword I'm not going to lie. I'm also expecting its triggered abilities to not be very good. Plus, it would be too good to be true to draw some of the attention away from SoFI. Seeing as how I need a couple copies of SoFI it's almost guaranteed to remain the best sword (with a price tag to match). Meh.
As long as it doesn't have an ability that makes it unplayable (body) in this format...
fake, if u look at the artist name it states MTGsalvation.........
guys the details, dont forgett the details
Was excited at Karn for like 10 minutes, then settled down. @ That manacost, MUD already has all is dust, which is an immediate one sided sweeper straight away. If played in MUD on Say Turns 2/3, The recurring exiles are actually pretty game breaking. most likely it will exile 1 threat, drop to 3 loyalty, and get killed by kitties.goyf/folk. I'd prefer all is dust which deals with all the dudes immediately. Having 1/2 copies as late game inevitability is good though. As for the +4, it's crap, Karn as a win condition is overrated. Opponent's will just be pitching lands/spells to the +4. It's not liken Jace's fateseal which is just ridiculous. If you target yourself with the +4, and your opponent draws an out to Karn (Like vindicate/o-ring), you are stuffed. I can see Karn as just recurring removal (similar to Nicol Bolas) which you can use to pump up and keep shooting things down. Once you hit the ultimate with 2/3 Fatties, exiled you can re-start the game if you are not in a good board position (highly unlikely). Since you could keep Karn alive to 14 counters, I doubt you want to restart the game.
I'm of the opinion that most of this is pretty bogus. I have a hard time believing that a Shahrazad type effect could make its way into the most prominent tournament formats. If it ends up being competitive, the tournament scene is going to be a nightmare and players won't respond well to it. Karn is a very unfun card by the standards Wizards has been applying to the game lately (I would argue that Emrakul is as well but I guess they printed that anyways).
any 100% SURE confirmation of that? looks clearly like fake Oo
EDIT: Nevermind, Didn't see page 6 =P=P=P
Kenjawn, Mutator of Cells
:16:- (See, now Erratic Explosion's a deck)
Legendary Creature - Horror
Haste, Hexproof, Double Strike, Trample
Kenjawn, Mutator of Cells is indestructible.
Permanents you control can't be sacrificed or copied.
Whenever Kenjawn, Mutator of Cells attacks, defending player gets liver cancer (This effect doesn't end at end of turn.)
13/13
Again, that Sword is fake. Guy says right on the page that it's fake. Guess it's that time of year.

Pariah's Shield is so much better since you can run it in mono-black and it's reusable.
I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums
The first use of Pariah's Shield is almost triple the manacost. It is reusable, yes, but crazy expensive.
