M12 Planeswalkers – Jace Has Been Spoiled!
Last week we brought you what we think/hope will be the new Garruk.
Along with that mock-up, we showed you the “confirmed” artwork for the new Jace and Chandra incarnations.
Now, we have absolute assurance that the art we showed you was indeed a spoiler of what you’ll get in M12, but we also have confirmation of Jace 3.0, or as you’ll call him henceforth, Jace, Memory Adept.
Here is the picture that we have, along with a text rendering of his abilities:
Jace, Memory Adept – 3UU
Planeswalker – Jace (Mythic Rare)
+1 Loyalty – Draw a card. Target player puts the top card of his or her library into his or her graveyard.
0 Loyalty – Target player puts the top ten cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard.
-7 Loyalty – Any number of target players each draw twenty cards.
Loyalty 4
There he is! What do you think? Is this a more fair replacement for Jace, The Mind Sculptor? Does it seem strange to print a third Jace when Wizards just banned the second? Leave us a comment and let us know your reaction to this announcement.
He really reminds me of the old jace in the fact that he can’t protect himself very well. However, depending if Innistrad is graveyard based, he will either be widely played or not played at all. I am, however, sad that I won’t be able to play Beleren in Standard once Innistrad comes out š
