Inspiration - Whenever ~ becomes untapped, reveal the top card of your library. If it's an artifact, creature, or land card, you may put it onto the battlefield with a manifestation counter on it. It's an enchantment in addition to its other types.

My initial reaction is that WotC should have learned to avoid this kind of crap from Cascade. But, the whole manifestation-counter bit strikes me as something of a heavier drawback than we would know before the whole set is revealed, and we know exactly manifestation counters do.

Now we just need clever ways to untap it. Prophet of kruphix in standard comes to mind first.

Seems like a fun johnny card.

This is actually the only pre-release promo that piqued my interest this time around. I do really want to try it with Freed From the Real in casual games.

This, Freed from the Real and Springleaf Drum is some fun times indeed.

Ok, well, looks like everyone in my store is going blue for the prerelease. Again.

This is clearly the pre-release pack leader again. Although the red one isn't too bad. The 7s seems out. Given the depth of green in Theros and the 3 theros packs in Pre-release sealed... I wonder if Green isn't a value play (outside the gimme bomb). Probably depends on the rest of BNG.

I will probably go red just so I can get a copy of the dragon for edh, and have a chance at red heroic monstrous.dec

I'm probably going red and green because having only went to one prerelease for Theros (blue) and most likely going to two each of BotG and JiN I want to choose a different color every time.

They kept running out of black at the store I went to.

Black was solid if you got two merchants.

Black and blue were the first to go, but blue usually won.

I get the feeling the M-counters are just to show it's an enchantment.
