That would make it even better TBH.

Gearhulking into a Bolt would be extremely cool and fun

It would be
1 - powerless and irrelevant
or
2 - annoying and oppressive.

Lightning Bolt being oppressive is a thing I never thought I'd hear about standard ever again.

They're not putting loving lightning bolt in Standard in 2017, please stop setting yourself up for disappointment.

People were saying this in 2009 too. That said, definitely not while Shock is still in Standard.

1-loyalty walker, some sort of "target player draws 7 cards", Gold tokens, checklands, 2-mana Pithing Needle-ish, interesting-looking enchantment, Coat of Arms-ish, and Looter il-Kor?

That black card to the side is a mythic, right?

Neat. That walker appears to be Jace, and the ultimate puts copies of him onto the board

e: Also I'm p sure he's 3 loyalty, not 1

That's a 3, not a 1. That's a Jace, ________; the ultimate appears to make more Jaces without a Planeswalker type.

In Oath of the Gatewatch someone leaked Kozilek mega-early and every other relevant mythic well before spoiler season.

This is hugely far ahead though.

They're up there with Shocklands as the best available Standard fixing you can get. Most of the time I'd consider them better than fetchlands because they don't cost life and they fix multiple colors at once while almost always being untapped.

Leaks are cool, spoil the whole drat set. I think that Jace has Castaway in the name. I wonder if at the end of Devastation Bolas kicks the GW's rear end and sends each of them across the verse to different worlds

Mono Red Pirate Aggro sounds amazing.

What was nice about the ALA/ZEN and ZEN/SOM Standard seasons was having both fetchlands and checklands around.

It makes me laugh how there are still people skeptical of these leaks as though you could fake 9 foil pirate cards less than 24 hours after they revealed that Ixalan is a pirate set.

Checklands with Shocklands was similarly ridiculous.

That's what I mean. This feels way further in advance than the Oath spoilers and much closer to the god book.

no set mechanics on that leak other than the treasure token, but there's 2 creature type matters rares so there's likely a tribal component.

Probably to make it clear you don't have to name a card that's in their hand.
