The Scourge is upon you
Time to make it big
the following has been quoted
from www.magicthegathering.com
The Scourge of Otaria -- Kamahl knows he has to act.
The conflict between Phage and Akroma threatens to consume all of Otaria.
All armies have converged and are ready for war. Breaking his deep
meditation in the Krosan forest, Kamahl races to the scene of battle between
his fallen sister and the arcane angel. Just as the two women are about to
trade blows, Kamahl strikes, cutting both women with a single blow to end
the feud, but ancient, unseen forces intervene and fuse the two women into
an immensely powerful being: Karona.
She is an avatar of war – a reflection of the
multitude’s fanatical desires. She is the ultimate abomination birthed by
the warped power of the Mirari. Kamahl must find a way to destroy her, lest
she bring total annihilation to each being, each race, everything.
That is why with every booster pack Scourge delivers
huge power. As the conflict has grown to immense proportions, each card in
the set has been designed with the theme that “this is the big one” so “size
definitely matters”. Boasting some of the fattiest – drop’em and watch your
opponent scoop – creatures ever featured in one set, Scourge reflects the
enormity of the crisis by featuring Dragons (yes big, powerful, you better
run…Dragons!) as the chief “tribe” of the set.
The Scourge set brings 143 new cards featuring such new
mechanics as Storm (more power for the more spells you play on a turn) and
Landcycling. Add the Warchiefs, a few creatures that Morph for free, and
you’ve got yourself some deckbuilding to do. Oh, and did we mention the card
you helped design is in the set too?
