Look at Rankle's card number. It says 356... Is that like a card from the brawl decks/ pw decks ?

Edit : or its an alternate art deal, i forgot they were doing those this set

The adventure cards with the alternate frames have it too. I guess it's for contents of the new collector's booster product.

The "M" is still exactly where you'd expect it to be if it read "356/XXX", so I think it's that they're not wanting to spoil what the actual number is yet.

The XXX is 269, it's on the other cards. They've said before that there won't be a /XXX on cards that aren't part of regular booster packs.

You should probably treat that more as a mana rock with late-game upside than trying to build around the draw-7. And a 3-mana rock that doesn't even fix your colours is a bit dubious.

But boy, that's a lot of upside when it does go off.

Maybe they'll do a functional reprint without that nonsense, and then we can run 8blossom in Modern.

No way they reprint a card that defined the last standard it was in and has a type they refuse to support anymore. They totally could, but, they won't.

Dreadhorde Invasion doesn't really count, since 3 evasive 1/1s over 3 turns is better than a 3/3 that can never productively attack against anything.

That tiny adventure box doesn’t leave much room for text and reminder. Hope the translators can be super concise for other languages.

On the other hand, instant adventure is a great type line.

Not from play, casting adventures is from hand. Then you can cast it from exile as a creature.

Any creature going into or leaving the graveyard, it seems. Just keep your hands off the graveyard already!

It's funny that they had to make 'go to the graveyard from play' (dies) and 'go to the graveyard not from play' both be defined separately because of Teysa's replacement effect.

The adventures shown add an interesting new heuristic early in the game. You can play the creature immediately or hold the spell to get “full value”, since the ones shown are useful/castable late game.
