A new Mox? I was interested in this anyways because it's liable to have a decent selection of artifacts, which I've really wanted to make a whole deck out of, but that's just icing on the cake. Will you be doing a set review?

Looking forward to a review if you decide to do it, Jeebus. The ones that you have up here and that other one you did on that MTG site really helped me get a better grasp of what's out currently as I segue back into regular play. I renewed my DC(I?) membership so I can get ranked.

I don't have high hopes for this new Mox, but maybe it will be good. I feel like there aren't any good idea left for Moxes. Here's what I'd like to see out of a new Mox:
Scarred Mox
When Scarred Mox comes into play, exile an artifact card in your hand and lose 5 life.
Scarred Mox is indestructible.
Scarred Mox cannot be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.
T: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.

Do you guys expect any reprints from the old mirrodin set? I would really like to see 2 specific cards.

Only card I'd like to see reprinted is Darksteel Ingot, but Jeebus keeps saying that Darksteel won't be involved in this block at all. I'd settle for a functional reprint. Indestructible is a Core Set keyword these days.

Hallowed Fountain was Dissension, guy. And why would they reprint 1/10 shock lands? You're silly.
Do you perhaps mean Quicksilver Fountain? If so, why? That shit is terrible.

I like a white blue land, that a fetch land can get . I was lookin' on gatherer and apparently greaves is in Archenemy is that it's own format (like it's own seperate deal) or will that eventually rotate into extended?

In the culmination of awesomeness, they've combined two great keywords into one (though one was only keyworded in Future Sight):
Infest (This deals damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters and to players in the form of poison counters)

That's going to be some exciting shit, especially with a Whispersilk Cloak. Does each point of damage equal a poison counter? That can make for a really quick kill.

Archenemy just came out a few months ago. Go ahead and put Greaves in any competitive deck you make in any format.

Woah. Source?
EDIT: NM, I found it. http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/519 , go click on the die for a while at the bottom.
Nice to see Wither back, at least. The poison counters, meh.

Maybe. I'm less interested in the poison counters than I am with that gets done with them.

Creatures with Infest will HAVE to be overcosted, making them useless.

Which'll be a shame, because the Wither mechanic was neat on it's own. Poison, eh, there's a reason that it hasn't been around for a while and really, if you're going for the Poison kill, you'd better go big or go the fuck home.

I really like Mirrodin flavor wise and now with the addition of colored and hybrid artifacts, they can really do what they were trying to do. Plus this whole hinting of Phyrexia invading and conquering (?) Mirrodin is intriguing. I love Phyrexia.

I agree with the flavor-wise part. Now let's just hope I don't see a goddamn artifact vampire!

Sounds really nice, but if you want to get rid of poison, Giant Fan and Leeches come to mind.

Proteus Machine or whatever it's called. 2/2 for 3 you can Morph and dictate its creature type.
