I think this set is going to be a nice long excuse to quote Scooby Doo A LOT. :D

Every time I use a clue token - "Jinkies! It's a clue!"

Structural Distortion - "insert favorite revenge quote here"

Do we have to make 2 names for Double Faced cards?

I hope not, because I feel like Madacyn works for both sides of the new Avacyn card.

Nahiri, the Harbinger - Cool guys don't look at explosions.
Also Flmaeblade Angel can inherit Slayerbane Angel because Madvycyn is so GOOOD.

I think Awoken Horror (the flip side of Thing In The Ice) should really be named "Thing From The Ice". Alas.

Aside from that, I don't have anything clever yet. Delerium seems disappointing, and if Skulk works will really depend on how much pump is in this set. I'm looking forward to playing red/black aggro though.

I don't think Arlinn Kord alone can rescue red/green from its current Zendikar doldrums. I feel like it wasn't that great in Dragons either, so that side of the colour pie could use some TLC.

Excited to see Nahiri again - she seems pretty powerful in a set with Madness in it. Still utterly unexcited by Jace, he's so boring. Still don't like Liliana, she needs a smack upside the head. We'll see where the story goes - I was originally unexcited by Tarkir too - but eh. I'd rather be charting new territory than returning to old haunts.
