We finally got the optional Bob ability that the original creator wanted.

It sort of feels weird to see a horse sized scorpion on Innistrad. I assume the non-zombie ones are that size too.

It amuses me that Krothuss has flying, but no wings, considering that lacking wings is pretty much the only thing that distincts his design from Cthulhu

I will now accept nothing less.

Hero's Downfall reprint implying that Odric becomes a vampire.

This aged poorly.

I jynxed it by brining it up.

Sorry everyone

Seriously tho Odric being vampirized is big sad for me. Kinda feels like a sucker punch after his struggle to side against the corrupted church in Shadows.

Random thought about this, but since arthropod size is at least partially restricted by oxygen concentration in the atmosphere (see irl Carboniferous) and generally zombies don't need oxygen, I'm surprised there isnt a bigger one if scorpions are on thr zombie menu.

To reflect a few B-horror movies Innistrad has giant bugs running around.

Do we think that Foreboding Statue is a hint at something bigger to come or is "ancient killer robot" just some of those random spooky things that show up every once in a while?

Cleave is just going to be a translation nightmare.

Hmmm I thought so at first too when the mechanic was shown off, but I’m not sure in hindsight. None of them really have funky wording due to it as far as I can tell

Apparently Japanese cards with overload just put the entire new effect in the reminder text. I wonder how many languages will have to do that for cleave, and how many will just work. It does seem like they have more flexibility than overload in terms of adjusting for translations.
