I have a feeling that almost nothing in this set will make an impact in standard until Innistrad rotates. Granted only like 20 cards have been spoiled and I do think that the plainswalker is kinda neat, but standard just seems so in balance right now that I can't see anything from a small set will really impact it.ps. I do hope that someone makes a good populate deck though

As of now, I'm thinking the Blood Witch is the best guild champ. Followed by the simic guy.Some of the others may be fun for edh, but don't seem to be playable anywhere else. I'm kind of excited about Trostani's Summoner. 4 creatures for seven mana. I think that'll be a fun card to play. Practical cards, I'm all about Render Silent. I know there has been a lot of talk about counterspells recently, but I've always been a firm believer that 2cc counters have always been OP. A 2 mana answer to anything... I don't mind paying three with a little added benefit, and render silent has a nice benefit. Finally I think advent of the wurm will be seeing play. I really feel like people are underestimating the fact that it's an instant. Cards like Advent of the Wurm have so much utility it hurts. Final note: I really wish Lavinia of the tenth cost 4 mana instead of 5. I think by turn 4/5 against aggro decks it's too little, too late.

Advent of the Wurm is already up to 7 on SCG, so I don't think people are underestimating it.

Beast Attack saw a little play back then and this card is infinitely better. Great combat trick imo

I used to play beast attack back when I played Snaketongue. I think this card is on par with Beast Attack. Beast Attack cost one more, gave one less P/T and no trample, but you got two of them.

Turn//Burn 2U//1R Instant // Instant Target creature loses all abilities and becomes a 0/1 red weird until end of turn. // Burn deals 2 damage to target creature or player.Blood Scrivener 1B Creature - Zombie Wizard If you would draw a card while you have no cards in hand, instead draw two cards and lose 1 life. 2/1 Not hard to get there with aggro. Could definitely use this in Jund aggro, Aristocrats, and Bx Zombies.

Yeah like holy crap that's an incredibly aggressively costed scavenge enabler. Even dead bridge Goliath took two more mana to scavenge. __________________ It is a known fact that more Americans watch the television than any other appliance.

Varolz could be a pretty interesting EDH general. The opportunity to scavenge a Dreadnought or Death's Shadow is pretty awesome.__________________ (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

They need to bring Garfield back to the design team. This edh high the design team is on is kinda making me want to make more edh decks and that's unnecessary expenses

Sometimes I can't really tell if I am terrible at this game or a lot of others are. How can that black creature that draws you an extra card while hellbent not be bulk???

Blood Scrivener would be terrible if you are looking for it to fill the void of Phyrexian Arena in a control deck, but if you are using him in an aggro or b/r Sligh variant where you need to constantly consume your spells to put pressure on your opponent, he would definitely shine. __________________ (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

I'm not sure either. He seems bad to me. I'm sure someone will try to break him with LED or Zombie Infestation. How would he work if it was a draw 2 cards spell with him on the board? 2 life and 4 cards? Assuming you had no cards when you cast it?
