This article is part of the Rise of the Eldrazi Alliance. Wizards of the Coast is working with Good Gamery, among other fan web sites, to help drum up excitement for the upcoming set. Take a look at the humorous and/or strategic content generated so far, and stay tuned for more ROE-related articles and ‘chops!



Good Gamery was chosen as one of the Magic fan web sites to spoil a pool of 6 cards from Rise of the Eldrazi on Monday — but Monday, as you know, starts at midnight Eastern, or 9:00 PM Pacific. Either way, for most of us, these cards is gonna be spoiled tonight.

And who better to escort these 6 new ROE cards into public knowledge than four of GG’s top Magic players/evaluators? Don’t even try to answer that rhetorical question; it cannot be done.

You heard right. At 9:00 PM Pacific tonight, you’ll not only get the 6 brand new ROE cards, complete with all sorts of big, juicy images, but you’ll also get speculative commentary from Peebles (Benjamin Peebles-Mundy), Llarack (Jarvis Yu), NicotineJones, and Sti (Stuart Wright). Let me tell you about these dudes.
