Tarkir is a plane of five warring clans. Each worships one aspect of the extinct dragons that lived there.

WEDGES ARE IN

The block is focusing on time travel and change between the sets, this sounds like it's based on the Great Designer Search 2 set pitch with each set being a unique era of time with changes between them. The focus is on the difference between each era.

e: Apparently there are dogmen.

I agree with this sentiment. What the hell is going on. I'm curious about the Commander and Duel Deck stuff and then there's this Tarkir stuff and what the hell.

I don't see how Abzan or Jeskai is any harder to remember than Dimir or Boros. They're all made-up words.

Every clan has a Khan, Zhurgo is the Mardu one.
