Argue all you want, Chandra doesn't give a ****

She is objectively the hottest planeswalker

Oh yeah, I meant to post this last week when I saw it:

Quote:
tarotbycharles asked:
Does Kiora not get an oath because of story reasons or does she not take the oath in the story for design reasons (a blue-green oath being odd)?

markrosewater
Story reasons not mechanical ones.

I wonder if the slaying of Lorthos dis-allusions Kiora into rage-quitting and she skips Zendikar to go get her mind right.

Kiora doesn't seem used to losing, so I can see how this would cause a sort of existential crisis.

Someone on reddit mentioned that Barren Glory should have been reprinted in Oath. I'm not a huge fan, but I wish we'd had more cards that hammered in just how close and Pyrrhic this victory actually is.

Wouldn't really fit given how all the "evil" cards are Eldrazi, but a Devoid knockoff would be pretty good, especially if it was Ulamog's signature light spell.

To be honest, I'm not really buying the "story reasons, not mechanical ones" thing. It's pretty obvious that they'd want their Gatewatch to consist of stereotypical mono-coloured 'walkers only, and that a white, blue, red, green and blue-green Oath would make for the weirdest cycle ever. So unless you count that as a 'story reason' to some extent (though it's more to do with branding than story IMO), I really don't think story took precedence over deign there. Unless they kill off Kiora anyway, but then I'll care even less about anything than I already do.

Nope. Good guys won. Everything is happy now.

Maybe the Eldrazi ARE the good guys. After all, look at this from their point of view. They were just chilling out in the aether, their home. They stop by Zendikar for a quick visit, maybe a vacation, because the heard the food was good. What happens? They're jumped by a Vampire, a Dragon, and a stoner and locked in prison without a trial. They finally get free, only to find their children being slaughtered.

Sounds like they're in the right to me...

One piece of info in the fat pack guide that wasn't in the art book:

Ramaz confirmed canon officially now.

Huh? Did it say anything specific about Ramaz' involvement in the current plot?

Yeah, it spoke specifically about his role in tricking Chandra into getting the scroll and how it was a "dragon voice" that guided him when Chandra caught up with him.

Yes, it's going to be kind of hard actually using him since they shoehorned Sarkhan into every single note Ramaz had.

Then again, they now also have Tamiyo + Narset and countless planeswalker sin the same colour combinations, so.
