I don't know how I missed that before. Holy shit that's cool.Thalia's promo art really lost me on her face- at least the low-res images we have make it look pretty bad. Pack art is great and I'm glad for it.
This is... interesting. We get this effect so rarely. Anywhere unsummon is good enough or close this has to be gas, right?

I'd guess I prefer >90% of original arts to promos, even disregarding the shitty foiling process
Man, the promo Hero of Bladehold was so much worse than the regular art.
The story of a boy growing up to become a father
Putting a token into play as additional value to spells (inst/sorc) + tribal support seems really sweet. This into snapcaster? Aw yeah!
That's pretty cute that he turns them all into/makes delvers.
In the latest "inside magic" or whatever the youtube interview series is called, they talked about a 'scale of eldraziness,' one being an ordinary citizen, five being full-on tentacle monster. I imagine when you get that far you've lose your previous identity / you're colorless now.

I love that the art on Docent of Perfection mirrors the one on Delver of Secrets. It's an insect researcher with a human in a cage
Looks really strong to me. The creature it eventually turns into is nothing to scoff at.
Not sure if its really playable but I like it.
This thing seems pretty strong... a single equipment or pump spell leads to a significant upgrade... front strike on the front side really makes it. (EDIT: Ojutai's Command wombo combo- just be sure to use it at the end of their second main so the trigger makes it!)
Much more exciting / fun than Dungeon Geists IMO. Pretty good clause to tack onto everything.
The dreaded white 4-CMC slot; but looks pretty interesting for lower power level stuff- I'm not sure mono white has gotten repeatable 'processing' into spirits?

Yes! They made Venser 's signature!

How do we all feel about unsubstantiate? Is the raw flexibility of this sort of effect good enough over, say, miscalculation? I suppose it depends on the decks you are trying to support...
Really like the Nibilis of Frost too. Toned down control effect and wincon at 4 mana, that interacts with instants/sorceries? Nice. Is this just better 'spells' payoff in U than Talrand is?

I suspect unsubstantiate is going to be really good. It's a janky Into the Roil and a janky Remand, but because it's both that flexibility may push it over the edge of playability. Not 100% sure though since I never did care for non-kicked Into the Roil.
On the fence with Niblis. I really like the ETB effect on Dungeon Geists. This new dude is slower, but he has more synergy potential, gets bigger and can tap multiple dudes if you plan accordingly (plus targets stay tapped one turn after he dies), so higher ceiling? I'm definitely testing that.

Unsubstantiate has staple potential: that type of affect is really, really good.

Another thing to note is that if anyone's still doing the ajani's pridemate deck, this guy is nice side support that is also fine if you just throw bonesplitter on it

finally, a card that works well with Rancor
Lone Rider seems like a card that in a really subtle way supports stuff like equipment and pump spells. Heroic card in disguise?

Lone Rider seems strong, I run both double Bonesplitter and double Seeker of the Way in my cube!
Edit: My autocorrect turned Niblis into "In list". Luckily this did not seem to affect people's understanding of my comment
Nibilis seems like a perfect analogy to Mistfire. Very cool. I do also really like lone rider and how it let's you go ~deep~ to get that nice bonus
. Not sure where I'd slot it in, but I do appreciate ways to value stuff like equipment that isn't double strike.

How have you liked mistfire in general/how have people been playing it? I really like the card, but I believe your format is higher power.
I like the idea of it being a higher power mistfire analogue.
uhhhh
