Wizards of the Coast has revealed to MTV Geek that at Hasbro ToyShop in San Diego Comic-Con they will be offering a limited edition collection of "Magic: The Gathering" 2014's Planeswalker cards. The five cards will be presented with unique black-on-black art by Steve Prescott, variants of those found in the core Magic 2014 set. Below you will find both the Magic 2014 and the SDCC version of Garruk.
Digging the necromancer! It seems that tribal themes are back, don't you think? Slivers, humans?
In addition, Banisher Priest is there to be the walking exiler for you. And for those white weenie decks that despise red and black, Fiendslayer Paladin is there to save the day! I don't actually see how Xathrid Necromancer would be great to use, but it would surely see some fun in casual play as there could always be an Orzhov human aggro deck.
Banisher Priest is probably one of the best 2/2s that white has to offer, aside from Silver Knight against goblins, White Knight against black, and Knight of the Holy Nimbus to annoy opponents. Oh, and there's Knight of Meadowgrain to gain some early life points. This human cleric is simply like an Oblivion Ring on a stick, though it only exiles a fellow creature. Nonetheless, the opponent has to shock this one before getting his/her creature back.
Speaking of knights, Fiendslayer Paladin has one of the coolest artworks I've seen. His weapon looks like a lightsaber. This is definitely a great card to use against Rakdos or goblins or zombies or any deck that has red burn spells or black removal spells. It has both first strike and lifelink, and giving it some +1/+1 counters or just temporary power-ups can make this a heavy-hitter.
