New Phyrexia Tokens

~
Happy Thursday MTG peeps,

We are still reeling from the massive Magic the Gathering full New Phyrexia spoiler whose point of origin was a leaked 'Godbook'. With so many cards to process from our completed New Phyrexia Spoiler List, we were not sure where to start so we are looking at token generator cards in New Phyrexia - BUT - first a short word about this very unusual spoiler season.

We're huge fans of spoiled cards - they increase traffic to MTG Realm and helps us defray the cost of getting our small group a Booster Box for each set which comes out. Having two or three spoiled cards are great - having an entire set spoiled is NOT GOOD. We firmly believe in a blend of rumours, spoilers and a controlled stream of previews coming from Wizards of the Coast. This gives us a chance to look forward to tomorrow and then post an evaluation of how the new hotness may fit in our casual kitchen table games or at FNM. We (and our sponsors) love chugging along at 3,000 pageloads per day but when we 15,000 in one day, things get FedEx'd to hell in a hand basket. Traffic after this weekend will in all likelihood to slim to none and Slim left town as players cloister themselves off line or perhaps hit the forums to discuss the new metagame.

We firmly believe that this leak won't affect sales of New Phyrexia for Wizards of the Coast. We are just as pumped as any previous set to get our paws on these great new cards. There is also some interesting discussion on MTG Salvation with a very thoughtful poll which supports this general opinion as well.


In summary, this blog loves the odd spoiler along with official previews - it provides material for our daily posts and benefits Wizards by helping pump the product (as if it ever needed it) but having everything out all at once really is not beneficial for anyone.

Anywhoos - on to the topic of the post - New Phyrexia Tokens !
