Magic 2013 Spoilers: 3rd Time's a Charm

Hello everyone and welcome to yet another spoiler filled edition of the emporium, in today's edition i'll be talking about some of the interesting stuff to come along in terms of new spoilers, so let's get straight into the spoiled cards.

So who called for the Akroma's Memorial reprint hmm, certainly not me but it is nice to have it back once again in the current enviroment, we know the whole deal with this being uber expensive, it's sure to drop in price, hopefully.

Master of the Pearl Trident is essentially the new Lord of Atlantis but with none of the downsides Lord offers of course, a 2/2 with a 2 blue mana cost, rare other fish get +1/+1 and have islandwalk that you control, this is important as Lord's effect was global, makes modern and legacy scream in joy.

So does everyone remember that saproling token i showed off yesterday, well here's what makes it, Fungal Sprouting, where you get to put 1/1 green saprolings onto the field equal to the highest power creature you control, which is nice in EDH, but that's about it.

The translation for this bad boy is Trading Post and it does 4 things, Pay 1, tap it discard a card and gain 4 life, pay 1, tap it, pay 1 life and put a 0/1 goat token onto the battlefield, so we know what the goats are made from. Pay 1, tap it, sacrifice a creature, return target artifact card from your graveyard to your hand, pay 1, sacrifice a artifact and tap it to draw a card. A very interesting choice of artifact but cool none the less.

Introducing yet more new cards, Spelltwine, 6 mana for a sorcery that exiles target instant or sorcery from your graveyard and from a opponent's graveyard, copy those cards, cast the costs if able without paying their mana costs, Exile this card, Now i am a big fan of the copy spells in this game, this just makes me excited for sure, EDH material for certain, Limited bomb, neat stuff wizards.

Is that what i think it is, Mutilate's back, wow they'd actually reprint Mutilate in the core set of all things, well for those not familar with this, 4 mana for a sorcery speed that gives all creatures -1/-1 for each swamp you control, it's essentially a indestrucible dodger card, so Avacyn eat your heart out, thank you for reprinting this wizards i loved this card back in the day.

All in all this set is shaping up to be quite a spectacle this year, we can expect to see the remaining cards in the set over the next week and a half roughly, so until next time this is vergil signing off.
