Exclusive Shadowmoor Cards!

spoilercards.jpg

We here at the GayGamer castle were lucky enough to get some exclusive spoiler cards from the upcoming Shadowmoor expansion to Magic: The Gathering! Well, technically only the Furystoke Giant is exclusive - we share the wicked-looking Wound Reflection card with another, as-yet-unknown site.

As exciting as our pal the Furystoke is, he's just a taste of the Shadowmoor experience, in which the Aurora has changed Lorwyn into the inky Shadowmoor, a plane of eternal night filled with warped and twisted denizens - expect to see familiar races from Lorwyn, but with seriously altered allegiances and all kinds of new powers.

Even the game itself has gotten a bit twisted: over a third of Shadowmoor's 301 cards will sport hybrid mana costs (back again), and -1/-1 counters get a kick in the ass from Wither and Persist effects. When Shadowmoor launches, Magic fans will be able to travel to Shadowmoor via booster, tournament and fat packs as well as theme decks.

How appropriate that the gay-themed blog got "furystroke giant." Sounds pretty hot. :P

Seriously, I feel so legitimate!

And Shadowmoor scares me—the untap symbol is the stuff of nightmares.

And yes, yes, I know it's "furystoke." That's not to say it SHOULD be.

Furystroke is just so much better ^_^

seriously, I typed "furystroke" about a million times. I triple checked. It was like the card WANTED to be called the Furystroke Giant!

@Mad Pawn

I was going to make the exact same joke, until I finally noticed that it didn't say Furystroke.
