Weekly Top 5 Cards

With Rise of the Eldrazi approaching to our decks, let's make a short list of some interesting cards from Worldwake.

Jace, the Mind Sculptor

No need to say anything about this one. Jace has a special place in Control decks.

Kor Firewalker

What a great card for Kor decks, especially in sideboard against red.

Leatherback Baloth

Only three green mana for a killer beast. A must for mono-green decks.

Urge to Feed

Works best in Vampire decks, obviously. Since Vampires are massively played in Standard, it's a nice addition.

Basilisk Collar

Perfect for Kor Equipment decks, but it's useful in many other decks as well. Nice equipment.

BR Vampires deck

You probably wonder, why would anyone splash the mighty Black Vampires with another color? Red in Vampire decks has some advantages, removals like Terminate or Blightning, even Lightning Bolt, type of removals that lack in mono-black decks.

Check out this list below:Creatures:
4 x Bloodghast
4 x Kalastria Highborn
4 x Gatekeeper of Malakir
4 x Vampire Nocturnus
4 x Vampire Nighthawk

Spells:
4 x Terminate
4 x Blightning (or Lightning Bolt)
4 x Urge To Feed
3 x Bituminous Bolt
2 x Grim Discovery

About lands... We'll it depends. You can use various combination of Dragonskull Summit, Lavaclaw Reaches, other Fetch lands and of course, Swamps and Mountains.

Have fun.

Worldwake visual spoiler: Jace, the Mind Sculptor

Yeah, Worldwake is the new set in the Zendikar block. It's scheduled to be released February 5, 2010 and it will contain 145 cards.

The only known Plainswalker for now is Jace, the Mind Sculptor. This card have four abilities and my guess is that it will be the most valuable card in the set.

[+2]: Look at the top card of target player's library. You may put that card on the bottom of that player's library.
[0]: Draw three cards, then put two cards from your hand on top of your library in any order.
[-1]: Return target creature to its owner's hand.
[-12]: Exile all cards from target player's library, then that player shuffles his or her hand into his or her library.

More info on Worldwake soon.
