I'm only now realizing that we'd never seen Elesh Norn from behind before.
We've never seen her open her mouth before either.
And thanks to both, many of us will have issues sleeping tonight. ;p
@@Telsun78 Cringe
More nightmare fuel than cringe tho. ;p
At first when I read this comment I thought she was gonna be thicc af 😅
Props to the camera man going across the multiverse uncompleated to show us a sneak peak of March of the Machines
They use their god-like omnipresent power to film stuff so we can like it on sites like CZcams. True heroes.
Dude survived a hungry Bear Grills, by now it's likely routine.
Hells, who do you think taught Randall Higgins from CoD how to do his job?
Who says they're uncompleated? This video is clearly Phyrexian propaganda.
@DC my thoughts exactly, conveniently edited to not show the part where elspeth runs her sword through norn's chest, they're not telling the full story.
CHADRAMAN
I love how there’s so much hype around this angelic elspeth saving Karn and attempting to kill Elesh Norn with a glowing sword. Then it cuts to the card in question and it’s like “make a 1/1 lifelink”
yeah other than the ultimate she's super underwhelming, also, none of her abilities are in the actual cinematic, and none of her cinematic abilities are in the actual card... kind of a fail
I really wish they would use the design space of Planeswalkers that temporarily become creatures more often. Gideon had it as his thing and Sarkhan does it a little bit too but other than that not very often. Elspeth, Garruk, Sorin and numerous others really should at least occasionally take the frontlines and kick ass themselves.
@@nemou4985 thanks to these noob devs that don't know wut their doing nor do they care about the game just profits
The card that shows this scene is really Elspeth's Smite (followed up by Mirrodin Avenged)
Card is designed on point. Cinematic Trailer is designed for peepz who like angels with swords fighting.
BY GOD IT'S ELSPETH WITH A STEEL CHAIR
No no no, proper JR phrasing is "BAH GAWD!" 🙂
@@DerekScottBland BAH GAWD THATS STONE COLDS MUSIC!
SHE BROKE HIM IN HALF!!!
That planeswalker has a family!
Will someone stop the damned battle?!?!?!?!?!
Elspeth coming back from the dead as an angel: "I was called to this world of steel, and it will be my steel that answers!" *Makes a 1/1 with lifelink*
I know its supposed to be Godsend, but that sword sure has Luxior, Giada's Gift vibes to it
@@brettdumain its neither, its both, she made it herself, from herself
Can we all agree this entire multi plane war should have lasted way, way longer?
Yup
It would've caused more destruction, Elspeth said "Nah.".
Quarterly profits isn't high enough.
Phyrexian invasion should have been whole three set block. Instead wizards decided to speedrun the story.
Worst of all, whole 'nothing will ever be the same ' ended up being just empty words. And double faced phyrexian cards were to few to be used as a thematic deck. Which is a shame, as it was cool feature.
Hell yeah man, I read some of the cards and phyrexia isn’t entirely done with, thank god lol
But they could’ve done more than make an invasion card for every plane. I wanted to see some transfigurations of cities, more lore to the invasions and the deeper plans to do a huge invasion to hide the underbelly of the true plan, to slowly infect each plane when they thought phyrexia was done in. Just more lord lol it would’ve been insane
Was really hoping there would be multiple glimpses of the team up characters 😢
Same
Yeah, Marvel would give us that 😅
Yeah, this was pretty generic and empty
@@federicoham2024 This isn’t an upcoming Marvel comic.
Also why not show innastrad?!?! We had 2 sets of it?!. No gin gitaxius either he's just vibing out of view ig.
There is zero white aligned phyrexian near Norm. Plus where is Chandra and wrenn?!?!
This is great, but I really wished we could've had a longer cinematic showing the invasion taking place on different planes. For such an important event in the magic storyline there really should be a bigger cinematic .
Yep
Buddy, I hate to tell you this....they don't give a shit about anything other than delivering the least for the most, if you catch my drift.
@@brosephstalin2805 unfortunately yes
@@brosephstalin2805
Not even that anymore. If that were really the case, they would've made MoM the next block, not a single set.
Like, could you imagine the money they would've printed had we gotten an Invasion-style block of 3 sets across the multiverse? The new Battle card type, the proliferate effects, the compleated double-sided creatures, some actual damage to the planes destined to fall, and THEN the big blowout where Phyrexia is finally defeated by its own hubris for a record THIRD time?
But, no. Apparently after Rivals of Ixalan, Wizards of the Coast believes Magic fans all have severe ADHD.
We need Blizzard level cinematics. Legacy of the void trailer was so good
RIP Phyrexian Mommy. Was a great run while it lasted.
We knew the writers would make it so, Phyrexia still did amazing. Team machine killed it
@@rennac3152 I hope not all of the compleat planeswalkers die, they could be fun villains in the future if they manage to regain bits of their consciouness(mainly jace)
@@qaztim11 i wish jaya haven’t died in dominaria united
It didn't last long, sadly
@@qaztim11 Well we know at least Ajani has gotten a cure, I think it will be interesting to see what happens next
The cinematography for Elesh Norn walking was fantastic.
Also having Karn look at Elspeth the way he did gave me rather gleeful shivers, imagining he might have seen Serra’s power within her. Beautiful though perhaps unintentional callback?
This was very well done.
It's truly fantastic how they have done Elesh Norn's movements. It's like she has a semblance of how a human should walk but it is so animated. Loving it
@@themonolougist Almost like a Puppet you could say
I thought the exact same thing. I can't imagine there wasn't some intent there given the history.
it is not unintentional, Serra herself, or whatevers left of her, helped shape Elspeth into an Archangel.
It wasn't unintentional. When Elspeth took on the Sylex, she ended up in the space between Realms, possibly inside the powerstone that was once Serra's Realm. Serra is now an ethereal being existing in the space between the Blind Eternities, and transformed Elspeth into an angel.
What a shame that Elesh Norn was taken down so easily... Is she really not capable of more than sending out a few random minions and shouting angrily? The cards are incredible as is the setting but they really could've slown down a bit with the story and made the baddies actually feel powerful. This feels so anticlimactic
you say that like they showed her being defeated 💀
@@PremPnamNam My guy they literally showed a card with art that had Karn holding Norn's decapitated head while telling us that it was about Karn making sure Norn never returns ._.
ya the action in this trailer is kinda sus fr fr
She was not defeated easily. Norn fought with Elspeth, she keep her busy, but it was infighting of the Phyrexian preators that was the end of the end of them.
@@Lamaneus she was defeated easily. I read the story. Norn just tosses random shit (and I MEAN random lol her throne, vorniclex’s horn) at Elspeth with Elspeth having a “I’ll deal with you later” vibe. Then we see Karn disintegrate her like nothing
Angels being my favorite archetype, i got chills when Elspeth came in. Cant wait.
"I was called to this world of steel, and it will be my steel that answers," is a good line that I wish appeared in the story.
At least it is in the cards
@@Gulgulp. Oh cool, which card is it on?
@@GFreeGamer soul parry
There better be an ending/epilogue cause this is too much to miss out on
Next set is literally called
March of the machines aftermath..🤣🤣
@@zenmaster8826 to clarify, I mean a cinematic scene of the ending, if there is one, I haven't read the story yet. You know how they love cliff hangers and suspense
they ending is already out on the mtg story and its shit.
@@Aiba271 The actual story ending is so vastly much more than this.
@@victorbressler7156 😫😫😫
Need more cinematic trailers of other planes/characters
There isn't any. Praetors are being killed by random soldiers we don't know the name of and falling buildings.
As much as I would love more detail since I love the lore of Magic, we have to remember that this is a trailer and not a movie. Putting in a lot of details would please the die hards but it would be all gibberish to the casuals. We have to remember that trailers are aimed to pull in new players.
Not saying that this is a good trailer though. War of the Spark and All will be One are the ones who I think did it right.
Just realized... Elspeth's now got the two gems from the sword on her armor. SHE is now the 'Godsend'
Form the looks of things the gems are still in the sword. I'm guessing she either had a new set made or has bound their power to the armor.
@@airistal she made the sword and armor from nothing, well the energy from the Sylex blast, which also was used to reshape her into an Archangel, with Serra's help.
@@keithfilibeck2390 Isnt serra supposed to be dead, got beat decades ago
@@thoticcusprime9309 she was an old walker, so some fragment in the blind eternity's was probably left behind for this moment, it wasn't the full her
Kind of a short trailer gearing up to the conclusion isn't it? Feels paced so weirdly compared to something as iconic as the Liliana one
@@SusanBewley that's some copium lmao. It's literally called "official cinematic"
To be fair, the War of the Spark trailer is probably the best one they've made up to this point so its not easy to top that
@@Vitaire throne of eldraine and neon dynasty were also very high effort and well done but obviously the stakes weren’t as high or dramatic. But year, the facial expressions of liliana seeing the siblins that reminded her of her and her younger brother is pretty hard to beat. That being said I still have a soft spot for the journey into nyx one.
@@SusanBewley when they were teasing they put "teaser" in the name, not "official cinematic".... I think that we won't get any more from this set :/
Magic has been going on a consistent downhill lol
Hard to pretend to be a good company when you hire literal villains (pinkertons) to do your dirty work.
It's too bad that Magic can't write a compelling ending to save their life. After building up the phyrexian threat for multiple years, it's amazing how easily they were all defeated by every single plane. Vorenclex gets killed in the stupidest way possible, Ajani and Nissa get magically healed. There are barely any lasting implications for our heroes to make anyone believe that the phyrexian invasion "was actually a threat to the multiverse". Truly lazy storytelling.
I like how Elesh Norn moves herself at 1:02. Her motions have a regal and haughty look. Too bad the conclusion to this arc was bad.
I wouldn't say "bad" as much as rushed. They really need to scale back set releases, give the lore more time to breathe IMO.
But yes, Phyrexian Mommy could slap me around anytime and I'd apologize to her hand 😅
SOOO BAAAD. PLOT HOLES GALORE
@@stephenmanuel9860 breathe lmao. plot has been trash for years.
They have sets to make, they can’t be focusing on deep flesh out stories, who does those anymore? Come on!
Legendary Cards: Pinkerton Collab?
Kinda weird to release the trailer after the entire story is already live lol. Trailer still pretty good though.
Yeah, and it has major inconsistencies compared to the story, too.
To be fair, maybe it's good that the trailer doesn't spoil the whole story. It's a trailer. It should generate hype.
@@124085 My point is that releasing it now, after the whole story is finished, is silly, since it would’ve worked much better to build hype without us knowing what was going to happen.
@@ascendantfiction7220 Well by releasing the trailer it already spoils that Espeth is going to be an Angel.
Also the trailer is for the set, not the story. All wizards cares about is if the trailer makes people buy cards and I can't really blame them for that.
@@124085 POVs:
1. A casual who has no idea about MTG - Wow killer robots marching in portals. Just like Terminator. Is that a golem?…..Is he losing?… A female
cyborg?……Looks like she is the bad guy. Wow an Angel…. One angel taking on an army of robots? Oww so it is a card game.
2. MTG player who does not follow the lore - So those gotta be the Phyrexians invading different planes. Its Karn. He is losing to Elesh Norn. Is that….. Elspeth??? She has wings. Is she an Angel??? Wow she is an Angel!! I can’t wait wait to make a new Mono white deck. Also will test this with my Soldiers deck.
3. Die hard MTG fan who wholeheartedly read the lore - this trailer missed out on a lot. Where is Wrenn, Chandra, Melira, Koth and the other Mirrans? Nissa should also be there. That random Phyrexian minion should have been Jin-Gitaxias. And where the hell are the other planes? I wish there was more Innistrad, Zendikar, Ravnica even though we have already been through those planes multiple times. New Capenna is important to the story. I wish I have seen the team-ups of the likes of Thalia and the Gitrog Monster, Drana and Linvala and the others. I could still go on but I’ll end it here.
The voice actor for Elsh Norn is so good at capturing her dominance and elegance in her performance! What a treat to be able to enjoy such amazing cinematic trailers!!!
Borg Queen vibes.

Well, strictly speaking neither the Phyrexians nor the Borg feature any AI.
@@verilymcarthur9471 Haibo, coz I like a trailer its now an AI generated comment. 🥱According to you people can't like things unless they're not human, lol

Elesh Norn back head reveal
It's giving less body horror and more disney cyborg thing...
Yeah they really cleaned the look of the Phyrexian. Only the black aligned ones still look a bit creepy (most of them).
@@iomar90 yeah, since 12 years ago, in scars of mirrodin block you mean...
The usual "retards of the coast" stuff that has been going on for years.
This set would be metal and appropriate if they stuck to the entities and amalgamations from the og art but let's be honest, with that MotM front cover there's no way they were gonna keep that same energy moving forward. If we got multiple sets per plane I could see it. Innistrad would get the real phyrexian grim dark experience while planes like strixhaven would have the Disney watered down stuff since WotC don't have the guts needed to vivisect kids on cards yet.
captain eo 😂
This is a way better way to potrait Elesh and Elspeth meeting. Norn is so cool walking and sending the minions to fight instead of throwing things and pieces of preators at her.
A piece of Vorinclex beats any other conceivable projectile, didn't you know?
Totally disagree
@@ToonLinksDair She could have at least used a piece of Urabrask or Sheoldred's head. Phyrexians used to like to recycle.
It’s to show her breaking down. Everything she does is false. When Elspeth comes along and throws a wrench in her plans she is no longer able to put up the calm facade.
She didn’t want all to be one, she wanted all to be her.
@@twingemios5139 I understand and if we consider that Elspeth appearing was her nightmare since Ashiok did what he did, it has even more sense.
But she wasn't supposed to! She was the embodiment of white mana and of the will of Phyrexia and that's why I loved her. She just wanted a world of peace where everyone would be the same and that was scary and relatable. Why she had to turn into a crybaby? Why she had to turn into a classic evil character instead of a cool original one? Why an entire plane (or at least 3/5) should follow her? No one in New Phyrexia was enough smart to understand it? Sheoldred did it.
Also, I don't think that shaping the universe around yourself is really what a white mana creature would like to do!
I started playing MtG when «New Phyrexia» came out. The previous set was like coming home. Now it feels like my homeplane is destroyed
And yes, I know it's a very strange choice of homeplane. But I like it
Same here, I started in scars block too, love myrs and the battle cry stuff, hero of bladehold and accorder paladin ♥️
And I love the art for planes in that set, the razor grass planes and such
"Aw, my house burned down." Was more or less my reaction.
Mirrodin Reborn!
on the contrary i started playing competitively when scars of mirrodin came out. so elspeth getting it done, to me feels like we did it mirrodin will be restored.
It's trailers like this that make me want a show or movie.
WOTC: We are bringing Elspeth back even more powerful than before as an Archangel to defeat Elesh Norn.
Also WOTC: +1 - Create a 1/1 with lifelink.....BEHOLD THE POWER
More fun if you consider how Elesh Norn, both versions, kinda crush ut Vs Elspeth
@@DarkTider both Norn’s are so good. Maybe it’s Elspeth’s sword that gives her so much power so we will see if we get an equipment of it like shadow spear.
I mean, it's her +1. What else would you expect lol?
@@omegaxtrigun I expect bigger bodies or multiple bodies. Not just a single 1/1 like that’s pathetic.
@@patrickwoodlands4086 someday people will understand the magnificent power of "Whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control".
"i was called to this world of steel, and it will be my steel shall answers" that goes so hard
I wish Elspeth had a “Gideon” ability of transforming to an angel/archangel.
It was a shame the official trailer didn't show Elesh Norn throwing random objects at Elspeth like she did in the full story.
I loved it when she broke off vorinclex's horn to throw. 😂
elesh norn be like SNAP and then vorinclex went like ow ow ow
Where do people read the actual story?
Ah, another chapter in the great magic story of “Dues Ex Machina is all we can think of”
ah, another chapter in the great magic story of " People dont read previous history of magic "
@@Liber-Abraxas The Phyrexians win, obviously.
@@hazemazze7963 This comment makes no sense, mostly cause I have read it. All of it.
@@hazemazze7963 Out of curiosity, how much are you getting paid to defend this trainwreck of a story?
TBF that was the only plot they could realistically write after the events of All Will Be One. But TBF again they also wrote those events, so...
I also feel like there is an over-reliance on Deus Ex Machina in the MTG story these days.
Can't wait for the meta where if you lose you can just hire the pinkertons to beat up the guy who won
I wish they made a full series like this on MTG
It wouldn’t sell enough
Elesh Norn Will dominate the multiverse, and all will be on- OH MY GOD IT’S ELSPETH WITH A STEEL CHAIR
KING: WHAAA?!?
Not pictured: the entire rest of the crew getting their buts kicked trying to get Wrenn to the tree
NGL I would enjoy the human chain passing Wrenn around as the actual trailer. xD
This was an amazing cinematic. The raw emotion was just unreal. I have played this game since I was a child and it holds a special place in my heart. The expression on Karns face as he looks up at Elspeth... That was my soul as I watched the same heroes I cheered for years ago still fighting the good fight.
I needed this more than I knew... Rest in peace Omnath
This is why I love Wizards of the Coast. The official cinematic goes against the official lore. What a great company.
how so?
@@elitedarkchild5551 In the video you can see jin gitaxias about to kill Karn under Elesh norns command and elspeth saves him.
In the lore, many more people are there: Nissa, Chandra, Wren, Koth, Melira, A group of mirrodin soliders, and Karn is on a floating table. Realmbreaker should also be in-view.
Great company? Who? Certainly not Wizards or hasbro
@@tim57564 Ikr, thought the same thing, they been milking consumers for the past few years now
My guess: The lore-version was too expensive to animate (Phyrexia and a whole battle in the background) and/or they didn't write the lore yet (animation takes a lot of time).
The biggest war across the multiverse truly needed a full block to capture its impact.
The Phyrexians and the voice of Elesh Norn reminded me of the Zerg and the Queen of Blades
The Zerg and their queen are much closer to the Golgari back when they were still led by Vraska tho.
So... the big plan, the great teased conflict will be over... Because of "Elspeth Ex Machina"?
I love Elspeth's little smirk when she kills that phyrexian, it just says "sure lady, but I don't think you'll be surviving this"
ok this is amazing but can we get like, a show or movies? the scope of Magics story is so insane, I do wish sometimes the media would fit that scope. i want to see the phrexians marching across the multiverse!
"We Machine Shall Rise, To make a Perfect world."

Nice audio callback to "Elspeths music" from the Theros reels!:o
I don't know how I feel about finally seeing the back of Elesh Norns head
It has already been shown in concept art all the way back when New Phyrexia was first introduced.
Hope that's not the end of Phyrexia. We still to learn where Jace has left - maybe to visit and compleat one particular elder dragon and ex-planeswalker, hmm?
Never played this game.
I just come for some awesome cinematic experience.
Keep it up!
The little hero sting from back in the Theros trailers is such a lovely touch.
interesting how much ugin and karn have in common. both were ancient planeswalkers, both were colorless, both were worshipped as messiahs on at least 1 plane, both have fought numerous horrific evils, and both not only returned to power due to being saved by the interventions of planeswalkers (ugin saved by sarkhan and karn by venser) but also had to eventually sacrifice that power to bring down that evil (ugin imprisoning himself with bolas and karn sacrificing planeswalking to cure the corruption). quite interesting being able to see so many similarities between these 2 planeswalkers who were willing to fight all the evils they could even if it meant sacrificing their own strength to do it
Both are played in tron
Yeah, get 'em Elspeth! That's pretty epic 😎
She's my favorite character in all of Magic. To see her elevated like that was epic.
Kinda wish they didn't just use the blue aligned phyrexians as what seems to be the main force
yeah, all other colours are probably little better suited for battle...
Elesh Norn is out here looking like a l o n g girl. I'm here for it
Elesh Norn must have some serious bad breath if Elspeth has to shake it off from that distance.
They got my man Karn looking full derp.
That Elspeth is going straight into my Adeline deck for sure
Elesh Norn is oddly attractive...
Wha-
That walk off the throne though
ayyyyyyyyyyyyye wizards of the coast pushing out another set of desired cards that will break your bank.. niiiice
Wotc: phyrexia will invades and everything will change
What we really get: phyrexia invades and gets stopped by random soldiers.
This is so anti-climactic. Turns out the Phyrexians were a paper tiger.
USA next?
@@keeganross vorinclex died to a rando who we don't even know the name of. Lol
Can't wait to play this set
As much as I appreciate the artists, I have to say, direction-wise it is incredible how much style and soul has been lost. That grit is nowhere to be found.
Phyrexians remind me so much of the element corruption from ARK but still are different in ways as well
The main question is: will there be less than 25 different versions of Elspeth in the set?
You'd think with such a badass trailer Elspeth would be a good planeswalker. You'd think wrong
Was really hoping the Phyrexians would win this time. RIP Dommy Mommy
No, they're nasty and ugly creatures. Only one should win is Garruk/sharkhan or Emrakul
Looking back, wish we got a trailer leading up to this showing the nightmares Ashiok gave Elesh Norn, as a parallel to when we saw them do the same to Elspeth. Something to show cracks in the gears as it were.
This feels like a scene out of a movie or show...one that I would absolute watch.
I started playing Magic in Dec of 1993... if you had told me back then that nearly 30 years later I'd not only still be playing that game but that I'm be more into than ever, well I probably would have believed you cause I was really young and also the game was even then really freaking cool. But still, it blows my mind that I'm still playing it and that there's no end in sight.
In case you're wondering, that sword is gonna go right where it looks like!
I was sort of expecting Karn to whisper a confused "Serra ??" looking up at Elspeth.
this is nice. The Phyrexian represented only by two units (two very simply disney-like designs :c) is very bad. The sight of differet worlds is cool. The Elish Norn and Elspeth are great!
That's some gorgeous 3D with attention to detail. 0:22 her neck 0:36 her stomach flexing as if breathing, 0:55 that "gotcha" smile, 1:45 and that fury!!!
Really hope this set doesn't feel like I'm movies when they show the world being destroyed by a massive tsunami, and to show this, they have a shot of a wave hitting the statue of liberty, the eifel tower, the leaning tower of piza, etc.
Based on the Etali spoilers and the planes we see here... i think it's gone be like this...
It's cool that all of Elspeth's setup since Theros Beyond Death is finally playing out, but I'm meh on the angel thing
New mommy killed old mommy
In terms of gameplay, the new card for Elspeth may indicate that there will be new updates for soldier tribal decks, that use white mana, and updates to aggro decks, including Mono White Aggro, provided of the ultimate ability. However, this is just only with the available cards, and results may change.
Karn is just upset he only has a Mine and a Powerplant and no expedition map to find a tower
Target creature or planeswalker you control gains protection from colorless or from the color of your choice until end of turn. If it's a creature, put a +1/+1 counter on it. (It can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, enchanted, or equipped by anything with that quality.)
My poor karn what have they done to you
Damsel in distress, or nerf or nothing
I stant chills!!!!! Following the story and what not, this was more than I could have hoped for from MTG. Elspeth looked amazing. And Karn!!!! Yes!!!! I. Rooting for the Mirren Resistance and our heroes. All will NOT be One
Praetors rise and fall but Phyrexia is forever.
That is really well made, gj. The characters look amazing, I like having more Angels 👍
Is Elesh Norn, and for that matter, are other Praetors 100% metalic, cause she looks a lot like she's made out of flesh.
Phyrexians are more or less cyborgs, with their biological bodies slowly replaced with metal that serves the same function. Most of what you see on Elesh Norn is metal that looks and acts like it's fleshy counterpart (e.g. flexible pipes that carry oil the way blood vessels transport blood)
They are not artifact creatures so I assume not 100%.
Her deal is more porcelainy in her case, and like an uncomfortable amount of teeth stuff
I love the subtle callback to Elspeth's theme music from the Theros trailers when she blocks that phyrexian from attacking Karn.
"that phyrexian"
How dare you disrespect Mother like that
@@frigginresulrum I would never disrespect the Mother. I meant the little one that was about to attack him.
That’s supposed to be Gitaxias lol
@@austinmozer4638 Oh, my bad! Carry on
This better have some lasting impact
lol no, Hasbro wouldn't dare make creative choices that might upset the applecart.

So epic Elspeth Arch Angel.
I'm really glad for Elspeth, I just wish her card felt more "battle angel climactic." Like:
0: Archangel Elsepth becomes a 5/5 angel with flying and vigilance until end of turn
+1: Target creature or planeswalker you control has indestructible until your next turn.
-3: Destroy target white permanent
Non-land permanent* And yeah, New Capenna Elspeth seems way cooler
@@qwertasdfg3447 what do you mean non-land permanent? You don't want to make lands indestructible?
@@qwertasdfg3447 if you mean this for the -3 ability its unnecessary, lands are colorless so making it non-land permanent would be redundant
@@wingspantt Maybe obviate "white" I dunno, seeing "non-land" interactions is so common in the format. It feels like popping lands might be too op
@@justacasualguy13 Damn, you're right actually
Elesh Norn walking like she a character in a Tim Burton movie lolol
Love the Elspeth but I was hoping for like a plansewalker Elesh Norn there at the end :P
Say what you will about her, but Elesh Norn knows - when you make that entrance, POINT THOSE TOES!!
Elspeth gonna fight mommy! I'd like to have had a lil more appearances from other key players, but yeah, this was neato.
I love collecting angels, gonna add this one!
Cinematic is good but feel generic.
But just like war of the sparks the story is a chamble and MGT is trying there best to wrap it up and move away from phyrexia for good so they can do something else (prepare for only 3 story by pack now so they can make more money.
Holy molly, this trailer is so epic ! Could we just have a MTG movie this good with this storyline pls ?
Though Elesh Norn is super badass, Elspeth becoming an Archangel is absolutely magnificent !
feels like starcarft 2 heart of the swarm
Worse even like Legacy of the Void epilogue when they make Angel Godess Kerrigan.
The machine. Just the one machine. Only one machine will march. Just one. Only one.
In Phyrexia, all is one.
For them to treat Phyrexia how they did in the story is pretty unacceptable to me.
The Phyrexian invasion of the multiverse is THE most anticipated event in MTG history. It's been building since before Mirrodin, with Phyrexians spending millenia perfecting themselves, and their Praetors strong enough to best and even capture/convert planeswalkers.
Phyrexia achieved so much without special inborn god-like abilities and their champions stood equal, if not more so, to planeswalkers.
And they all get elimated in 5 seconds. With virtually no consequences and even less stakes.
Good thing the cards are cool and let make our own stories through the game, because the story is pretty much just woke garbage at this point.
Yeah, but don't blame all of the team, some of them just had to follow orders
Wherr Colossal dreadmaw
I really wanted phyrexia to win tbh
