Mischief doesn't leave the stack until it's finished resolving, so it's a legal target at the time. So yes, you can redirect a counter onto the misdirect to fizzle it.

Magic: the Gathering |OT| War of the Spark - Enter the Bo-Las (36 Planeswalkers)

Considering how viable (powerful) Liliana's planeswalker incarnations have been, $500 may be lax. :P
Totally Lost

i have bought every single SDCC promo prior to now, but I would actually go stand in line myself for the first time if they printed these.
Wizards have done the impossible... make me find something related to Fblthp amusing.
Amazingly well done
OP
OP
He's only appeared on Ravnica-set cards. They might make him a planeswalker to expand the joke, though.
MaRo has said in the past he can't spark because Homunculus are artificial creatures and can't hold a spark... unless they are Karn.
I could have sworn he was in a Conspiracy card too. Unquestioned Authority.
Edit:
Well... I just looked it up. It is updated artwork for Conspiracy, but the setting is Ravnica.
Dreadhorde Butcher and the new Blood Artist give me hope for Aristocrats.
They might be Fancy Zombies instead of true Aristocrats, but that's fine.

There is a 3 card infinite combo with the new Ral, Expansion, and any other cheap spell. You can even do it with just 2 cards if your opponent responds to Ral -2.

Wait actually you just need 1 if you use Ral -2 ability.
Doublecast and league guildmage also still exist, so some redundancy there that you can also burn on doubling up your cheap draw spells if you need to dig for other pieces.
Ral's -2 only applies to the next spell you cast, so Opt would get the copy effect as soon as you cast it. Unless you can use Planeswalkers at instant speed (which might be a card in this set), there's no way to stack it so Expansion gets the copy. Or if your opponent plays something (or teammate in team formats).
Guildmage works. You'd still need a dummy spell like Opt to target with the first Expansion, and Ral to get profit from infinite copy effects.
Storrev, Devkarin Lich
OP
OP
Pretty weird effect, but it's to prevent you from suicide charging with the same creatures over and over, I assume. Returning a planeswalker is new for this sort of effect, I think.
Otherwise couldn't Storrev return itself any time it manages to get damage through, even if it's killed? There's probably some broken interaction somewhere.
Invading Manticore; Lazotep Reaver; Lazotep Behemoth; Lazotep Plating
Amass is going to be this set's Level Up, isn't it. One must-include, a couple sideboard/situationals, and a ton of jank.
Just a little more information:
5R
Aggressive Manticore
Creature – Zombie Manticore
When Aggressive Manticore enters the battlefield, Amass 2.
4/5
1B
Lazotep Fleshrenderer/reaver
Creature – Zombie Beast
When Lazotep Fleshrenderer/reaver enters the battlefield, Amass 1.
1/2
4B
Lazotep's Behemoth
Creature – Zombie Hippo
5/4
1U
Lazotep's Plate Armour
Instant
Amass 1.
Until the end of turn, you and permanents you control have hexproof.

Amass seems lame, but I am eager to be proven wrong.

So far we've mostly just seen Amass setup. And the setup has been fine, but I'm expecting/hoping to see more payoff. Gleaming Overseer is a start.
I don't care if it makes a splash in Constructed, but I'd love for it to be a thing in Limited. Shoot, if they can print enough payoff for Surveil to make a sweet draft deck, they can do it for Amass, right?

I like how the creatures that Amass when they etb have the same number of soldiers in their art as the amount they Amass.
The mechanic still seems weird in so many ways though. I understand every mechanic isn't going to make perfect sense, but there's so many bizarre things with Amass. Like why does coming into contact with a 1/1 deathtouch decimate an entire army?

Unfortunately these seem to be the only cards for which that is true.

Looking at the spoilers list, the art for the new basic lands is cool and all, but I really don't like them in the context of being lands.
Guys do you think Niv-Mizzet Reborn would make for a good Superfriends Commander? Like, you draw a shitton of Planeswalkers when he comes into play, and with stuff like Venser's +2 you can repeat that since it's etb, drawing half your deck's planeswalkers in a few turns.
It's a crazy strong effect imo. Just not sure if it's worth it and whether you can get them out fast enough to not overdraw on them if you don't have a relinquary tower out. But if you get your hand discarded or otherwise gimped, you might just fill your hand with walkers again.

Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin
When Krenko attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on it, then create a number of 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens equal to its power.
Now that's a buildaround bomb.
Dream Halls seems super busted with NiveC.
Then again you could just play Omniscience and Enter the Infinite instead lol
Grabbed the Liliana preorder and gonna grab some Tezes too. This set is going to be insane. I need Dovin's Veto in my life.
So the expectation is that the Amonkhet gods will get new cards, right? That might actually excite me
Yes confirmed by a 3 months old leak that vaguely describe what they do. Leak is legit.
yeah, that's what I was thinking. I haven't seen anything about Amass that excites me, unfortunately.

Rather simple compared to most of the spoiled cards so far (especially considering it's a rare), but I like it.
Level Up was actually a pretty interesting mechanic decision-making wise, especially how to manage your resources. Amass is more like eldrazi tokens where the creatures that come with Amass will always provide value for you and you just use them to make bigger creatures.
The base set mechanics are obviously going to be less interesting/complex because of the number of planeswalkers and the decision points those will create.
