Free +2/+2 instants seem good in draft.

You're still paying 2 life. It's only free against Infect.

Dispatch is going to be amazing only in a deck with metalcraft (preferably 4 too, since the other guy could easily have a shatter).

You'd slit your wrists, get reincarnated and do it again for some cereal? Whoa dude... priorities? How about some Captain Crunch instead?

Holy ****. This is a HUGE leak for WOTC. Someone is definitely getting fired over this.

Colour me underwhelmed. So many things they could have done with "phyrexian mana" and they didn't do them. A "free counter" that was XU, counter if not pay X, where you could pay phyrexian mana for U and X would have been a half-decent FoW reprint, for one.

Yeah, Mental Misstep is HUGE, especially for Legacy (probably elsewhere too). My only question is how best to fit it into my 75.

Beast Within will be interesting.

Jin-Gitaxis, Core Augur <-- Sick for monoblue EDH
Mental Misstep <-- Free Counterspell for 1 CC spells
Melira, Sylvok Outcast <-- Anti Infect
Noxious Reveal <-- This is neat you can timewalk people
Etched Monstrosity <-- Interesting EDH card
Myr Superion <-- Interesting for sure, 2 mana for a 5/6 if you can cast him with creatures
Soul Conduit <-- Mirror Universe without the sac (6 mana and tap)

The set is interesting to say the least

Am I the only one who is extremely suprised to not see a better, more universally playable anti-jace card?

I thought they said that there would be something in this set that "fixed" the Jace problem.

Yeah, removing counter(s) cards are usually dead cards if there's no planeswalker out. I really thought they were going to make cards that hit non-creature, non-land stuff and would be useful otherwise too. Something along the lines of:
3
artifact - creature
2/2
metalcraft - +1/+1 and flying. ~ gains "sacrifice: destroy target non-creature, non-land permanent"

Hex Parasite still works to stop people's chalices; Spheres; and other mana sources relying on counters. Tumble Magnets get depleted, etc...

Aether Vial, Lackey, Dark Ritual, Thoughtsieze, SDT, and many many others aren't going to like Mental Misstep.

Gitaxian Probe in dredge?
With Cabal Therapy...

Also there has to be some kind of way to abuse all this free life loss in the set.

Also Leeching bite clearly should have been able to move a poison counter from one player to another or a -1/-1 from a creature to another.

Also Meliria = the "just in case we didn't test infect well enough" reset button.

Triumph of the hordes seems too strong for limited to be just uncommon.. I dunno

Also Darksteel Relic is clearly the card Phylactery Lich needed to finally be broken haha WINK

Immolation Souleater + Berserk = haha.
