Innistrad Spoilers 6

~
Happy Thursday MTG folks,

This is our second post for today - to see the previous regarding the new Planeswalker Points system for Magic the Gathering players, click HERE. We are again slowly churning through several new Innistrad spoilers and previews. Let's bounce . . .

Angelic Overseer, 3
Creature - Angel, Mythic Rare
Flying
As long as you control a Human, Angelic Overseer has hexproof and is indestructible.
5/3

A converted mana cost of five gets you an Angel with a 5/3 body - not that good, so let's move onto the abilities. You need a Human creature on your side of the game table to give this Angel hexproof - not that bad at all but this does not really feel like this should be a Mythic Rare. We can see this going straight into a Commander deck (think Kaalia of the Vast). If you are attempting a standard build, we suggest you double up on the hexproof and play with Invisible Stalker.

Tormented Pariah, 3
Creature - Human Warrior Werewolf, Common
At the beginning of each upkeep, if no spells were cast last turn, transform Tormented Pariah.
3/2
/ / /
Raging Werewolf
Creatue - Werewolf
At the beginning of each upkeep, if a player cast two or more spells last turn, transform Raging Werewolf.
6/4

We love the juxtaposed artwork here. The flavour text translated by forum member Ormus7577 gives the following : "Guys, the moon is rising. Now we can see him beg for mercy even better. // Look at him, crawling there, what a sad little... whoops!" Yep - hilarious. This card fills a space for a common transform.

Haunted Moorland
Land, Rare
: Add 1 to your mana pool.
, , Exile a creature card from your graveyard: Put a 1/1 white Spirit creature token with flying onto the battlefield.

We're rather liking this land (as well as the rest of the non-basic lands in the set so far). One can create 1/1 Spirit chump blockers from your graveyard. Couple this with Battleground Geist and now you're cooking with Ecto-Plazm! Not much of a stretch of the imagination to see this get worked into a deck to replace the soon to rotate Squadron Hawk.

Falkenrath Marauders, 3LinkCreature - Vampire Warrior, Rare
Flying, haste
Whenever Falkenrath Marauders deals combat damage to a player, put two +1/+1 counters on it.
2/2

Here's yet another lead from YouTube user 'bassethound85', aka 'Semen Nikolaev' - see our previous post HERE. It has been pretty much determined that this is a clever viral marketing ploy from Wizards. Again - we warn you that this is unofficial content and that you take this as pure rumour until officially release by WoTC.

Laboratory Maniac, 2
Creature - Human Wizard, Rare
If you would draw a card while your library has no cards in it, you win the game instead.
2/2

We here at MTG Realm, being huge fans of the casual game, love cards with alternate win conditions - this one is no exception - but DANG! - This is a weird one. MTG players around the world are currently working on combos to make a build with this hilarious and fun.

Our friends over at MTG Mint Card is having yet another contest on their Facebook Page.

They are looking to give away to two lucky participants an Ajani vs. Nicol Bolas dueldeck.

This contest closes on the 18th of September, so don't wait too long to enter.
