open topic, open debate.

Were the spoilers revealed real?
What kind of mechanics are we looking at?
What's going to be the hot guild to go with? (I'm thinkin BOROS)

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I haven't seen nothing yet but I can only think of my precious Dimir..

Mill all the way!

Sadly, I suspect that Gruul and Boros will the tier 1 in Limited, with Simic following close after.

I'm looking forward to Dimir and Simic so I can build a BUG deck with a decent mana base, and I'm kinda curious to see what UG Merfolk will look like (cards & deck).

The new art for Breeding Pool is autrocious. I'm looking forward to the new charms and guildmage abilities. I hope we get an instant discard in the new charm. Most likely it will be in the Dimir Charm.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I don't like ANY of the new shocks' land art better than the originals.

I've only seen five cards. Hard to gauge an opinion...

I mean, I'm not a fan of Domri; Aurelia is savage with Deadeye Navigator, Hellkite Tyrant is probably constructed unplayable, Borborygmos sucks again, and Enter the infinite is funny with Dream Halls.

+1000000000 orig artwork is still the best.

I hope Dimir is unplayably bad so I won't have to suffer through another format with a playable mill archetype.

well as an EDH player.. more legends will be good.

weenie decks have a hard time right now because the midrange decks are really good at recovering and stabalizing themselves. so boros/gruul might not be so great.
I have a feeling gruul wont be its own deck. rather anything good printed for gruul will just get worked into the existing midrange decks. (though i dont see anything better then huntmaster/hellkite/etc being printed)

simic I have a strange feeling is going to have something to do with tokens.. maybe even making their own thragtusk like ability. when creature X dies.. make a token or something similar. or maybe something like mimic vat almost.
simic seems like a guild that would tinker with cloning creatures for fun.

blue/white control will probly remain a thing. they have access to good stuff right now.

dimir seems like it could have the biggest impact on the meta right now. depending on how they did the guild. if its mill.. well.. then, the meta will probly stay the same. if its control.. then weenie will probly totally fall off the map, and it will be a mostly control meta with various midrange builds and maybe rites follwing behind

Simic is the merfolk guild, so I don't see any of that happening.
