Fountain of Ichor seems to be set on Ixalan. Is the titular "ichor' Phyrexian oil? How likely am I right, how likely is it to actually reflect something WOTC's considering, and what do they stand to gain by Phyrexianizing Ixalan in particular?

A pretty good nagle, really.

I think "ichor" is just a fantasy word for "oil" here and it's just a fossil fuel joke.

I could see that, though it's not a word for oil. It's more akin to blood in the traditional usage.

I never considered that. If it's true, they should have played into the joke a little more heavily.
I've seen "ichor" used to refer to oil, but only poetically. Usually in the sense that oil is essentially the blood of machines.

*"To YMTC it up" means to design cards that have value mostly from a design perspective. i.e. you would put them in a case under glass in your living room and visitors could remark upon the wonderful design principles, with nobody ever worring if the cards are annoying/pointless/confusing in actual play
