They have the creature type cat, that's good enough for me.
It must be weird interacting with cat people. On the one hand they're sapient beings, quite possibly smarter than you. On the other you just want to scratch them behind the ears and feed them treats.
Also Kemba has really huge tits, which is quite disturbing.
I wonder whether we'll see Ajani again. He's still on Alara, and thus I don't think he really has much of a reason to appear again. Maybe they'll stick a new Ajani in a core set.
Maro said in one of his articles that Archangel's Light is like that because it used to be a much stranger lifegain card that they had to change at the last minute because it wasn't workable, and that he wasn't going to tell us what it was changed from because he still thinks the original idea might be salvageable. Wonder what it was?
I doubt that was it; I got the impression that it was more out there. Something that had never been done before.
askjin-gitaxias asked: When R&D's Secret Lair is on the battlefield, what's the best way to determine how and when Floral Spuzzem has made a decision about its ability?
If you stare at Floral Spuzzem long enough, I’ve been told, you start to hear voices.
Awhile ago I noticed that Harpy is a creature type in Magic but that there are very few of them in the game. Is there any chance they could see more someday?
We haven’t done away with harpies. We just want to make sure to use them in environments where they make sense. I admit they are a little harder to use than the average creature type. Have no fear though, we haven’t abandoned them.

Greek mythology would be awesome. Just done straight up, like the Arabian Nights set way back when.
I wouldn't want to see them flat-out take stuff from real world mythology again; Magic's supposed to be its own world, and anyway you'd have to make specific characters like Theseus, Perseus etc. legendary which might cause all sorts of problems.
Zudak was telling me about Arkhos a while back. I think it's definetly coming up in some point, especially now that Maro has said that DFCs are a sucess and likely to come back.
One thing that could possibly hint at it is that we've seen a fair bit of stuff about Kiora lately. She a) is aquatic and b) has strange dreams. Arkhos is a dream-world, and both of the cards that depict it show a body of water.
Derp, I just realized that we were talking about Shadowmoor/Lorwyn, actually. We ended up talking about Arkhos because Zudak confused it with Vesuva, I think
On the other hand...
SpruceZeus: NumberSix: "Arkhos is a plane in which day and night intermingle, creating a twilight in which one never knows what is dream and what is reality."
Juan: sounds like "what if Shadowmoor and Lorwyn had horrible horrible planar sex"
ETA: Also, it'd be interesting if a set focused on a reality/dream aspect. /Sandman fan.

Hi Alice.

Nope; Jace 3, Chandra 3 and Garruk 2 have only been printed in Magic 2012.

So I found out that they sell MTG booster packs at the local Dollar Tree.
I am very suspicious.
Interesting. Greek mythology block, anyone?

I'd be up for Greek mythology, myself.
Won't be next block, though; that's confirmed to be somewhere new.

Meanwhile in an alternate universe.

edit: I forgot to change it to an enchantment.

And Arkhos! Come on guys, it looks awesome!

That's probably reaching, though.
