Good, I didn’t want that copper anyhow. They only accept Rupees at the corner store.

A Message from the Future
Hey, you there. Copper Myr. This is going to sound crazy, but… What year is this? Really? Okay. Thanks.
By Kaldra, I’ve finally done it. All the lives that have been lost, all the good Mirrans enslaved… It won’t be for nothing. I have a chance to save them.
Melira? Is that you? Listen, we don’t have time for questions. My name is Jor Kadeen. I come from a future where all of this… It’s compleat. Almost every man, woman, and child – infected or worse. It’s the Phyrexians, Melira. You’re the only one who can stop them, and that’s why they’re sending back in time a golem called Karnold to kill you. But I got to you first, and together we can –
Hang on. Why are you looking at me like that?
What do you mean you already know? Some… Some French guys already found out all this stuff? And you’re fine with the whole golem situation. Well, I mean, that’s great, obviously. No really, I’m happy for you. It seems like you have things under control! Shall I just… Go, then?
No, you don’t have to feel bad. It’s just, I look kind of like a jerk, you know? We actually invented time travel for this. Do you know how complicated it is? It would literally take until the Phyrexians arrive for me to explain it to you. I had this big hero thing all built up in my head – you know I wrote down some one-liners for when we’re fighting Karnold? Yeah, I had a lot of free time while I was hurtling through a perpendicular dimension in the time capsule. I was going to say, “You Karn’t touch this!” Get it? No? Never mind.
Look, I think it would be less awkward for both of us if I didn’t stick around. You don’t need my help anyway, right? I’m just gonna go find a nice spot near Lumengrid where I can unwind for a while. When the Phyrexians start invading, just give me a call, okay? Sorry to bother you like this. Uh… Yeah. Bye.

Good Gamery publishes scans of six new M12 cards!
Good Gamery has recently come in possession of six scans of entirely new Magic 2012 cards. Sources close to Wizards of the Coast have confirmed that they might indeed be real. Considering the events of the past few weeks, we have pondered whether or not to release these images to the public. In the end, we decided to go ahead. We’re really excited about this core set, so without further ado, here are the images.
White weenie decks in standard will certainly get a kick out of this innovative swinger!
Finally – a good white sweeper in standard! Thank you, Wizards! This is the card we’ve been waiting for since 1993.
This is a card with an effect we’ve never seen before in any color.
Our only mythic rare shows that Wizards will stop at nothing in being creative and bringing new and surprising cards to the core set!
Just – WOAH! This green common card is sure to find a place in all aggro builds. We’ve never seen anything like it before!
Wrapping up our amazing M12 spoiler scoop, the final card is the soft counterspell we’ve all been waiting for. We’ll be picking this one for sure!
Attention MTGS readers: This article is an obvious joke.
Good Gamery would especially like to thank the artists: Mr–Jack, Abi909, Amedyr, dinmoney, zakariah and barretxiii.

Wizards of the Coast Announces Major Security Breach
April 20, 2011 – RENTON, WA – Wizards of the Coast, publishers of the popular trading
card game Magic: the Gathering, announced today that, in an apparent security breach
unprecedented in the 21-year history of the company, the entire Homelands spoiler has
been released to the public. Anonymous Internet hackers were able to gain unauthorized access
to the confidential information through a previously-undiscovered security flaw in the company’s
Gatherer database. Rules text and art for all 140 cards in the set were downloaded hundreds of
times over before the hole could be closed.“This leak was huge,” said Magic Brand Manager Paul Levy. “We thought we had Homelands
locked down tight, but apparently this flaw in Gatherer has been there for years, and no one noticed until this morning.”As the leak spread, fan websites for the game were bombarded with heavy traffic from players
interested in seeing the spoiled cards. Player reactions ranged from indifference to outrage.
A large contingent of users from the popular website MTGSalvation threatened to boycott the
set entirely, due to cards that “violate the color pie.” Most players were in agreement that
the set’s power level was exceptionally low. Professional Magic player Luis Scott-Vargas
tweeted, “There’s no set like Homelands. At least, I hope there isn’t, because these
cards are all terrible.” Disgruntled players began to use the Twitter hash tag #HomelandsSecurity
to mark their tweets about the leak, comparing the usefulness of the set’s cards to that of the
security screens now commonplace at U.S. airports.“This was just about the worst leak we could have had,” said Levy. “The Dark,
Fallen Empires, Prophecy, those sets are all bad. But Homelands? It was
like the Virtual Boy of Magic sets. And now it’s out there on display for everyone to see.
I mean, what the hell does Giant Albatross even do? Just forcing myself to read
the card makes me feel like I’m stabbing my eyes out.”“At least nobody figured out that the booster packs only have eight cards in them,” he added.
“Then we really would’ve been in trouble.”Shares of Hasbro, parent company of Wizards of the Coast, were down 17% in the morning’s trading.

Mirran Field Report, Final Transmission
Phyrexians came through means unseen,
They brought us pain and misery.
They killed our tribes, they killed our sea,
They bent our suns to their own need.
We fought them hard, we fought them well
Out on the plains we gave them hell
But soon there came too many to see,
Oh will we ever be set free?Riding steeds on the glimmering wastes
Galloping hard on the plains.
Chasing the Aurioks back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game
Global compleation, a stab in the back
Women and children, a horror’s attackRun to the hills! Run for your lives!
Run to the hills! Run for your lives!Horrors stalk in the razor brush
With Leonin men as their game
Crushing the myrs and compleating the men
The only good Mirrans are tame
Breaking their spirits, replacing their gold,
Enslaving the young and destroying the old…Run to the hills! Run for your lives!
Run to the hills! Run for your lives!–End of transmission–
