Origins Spoilers 7-02

~
Happy Thursday MTG peeps,

We hope all fellow Canadians among our followers have had a pleasant Canada Day yesterday and to our American cousins to the south, we wish a safe 'n' happy Independence Day weekend.  

Given the good showing of artifacts and Enchantments in this next and last core set, we hope to be able to go with Thopters (and what-not) during the PreRelease event at our local gaming store, OMG! Games here in Barrie and perhaps even take a run with a Constellation / Enchantment strategy in the new standard.  Aywhoos, Let us get straight into Magic Origins spoilers and previews -  

UPDATE !
Dan Barrett, WotC EU minion does a Magic Duels: Origins digital game walk-through AppSpy Pete which floats out another 15 Magic Origins cards -

Mage-Ring Responder, 7
Artifact Creature - Golem, Rare
Mage-Ring Responder doesn't untap during your untap step.
7: Untap Mage-Ring Responder.
Whenever Mage-Ring Responder attacks, it deals 7 damage to target creature defending player controls.

7/7

LoadingReadyRun preview - All Hail the DurdleBot !!  Big, bulky, akward like that introvert linebacker.  You could use a recursion tech like Whip of Erebos or perhaps an un-tapper like Kiora's Follower to reset but we don't think this would pass muster for most.

Sigil of the Empty Throne, 3WW
Enchantment, Rare
Whenever you cast an enchantment spell, put a 4/4 white Angel creature token with flying onto the battlefield.
When Asha left Bant, she ensured that the world would have protection and order in her absence.
illus. Cyril Van Der Haegen # 31/272

Chinese MTG Facebook preview.  We loved this card in Conflux and hope to make the most of the enchantments in Magic Origins and of course with Theros block before rotation, perhaps even floating a constellation build that actually may not be rubbish.

Willbreaker, 3UU
Creature - Human Wizard, Rare
Whenever a creature an opponent controls becomes the target of a spell or ability you control, gain control of that creature for as long as you control Willbreaker.
"Master your mind, or I shall master it for you."
illus. Dan Scott # 84/272
2/3

Mothersite preview.  Rather interesting and potentially powerful should you fire off a spell targeting multiple creatures like Curse of the Swine or an Icy Blast.
