The card I am most excited about previewing is the second of three Ultra Rares in Phase 1 and is a card that saw significant changes since it was previewed initially. This will be the second Dual Alignment Dominant and will likely serve as the primary chase card for the Prophecies of Christ Phase 1 if not the whole set. I give you the new and improved DoN!

Well that certainly went from ‘interesting alternative’ to ‘big upgrade’. Definitely makes sense for it to be dual alignment though.

Why do both the good and evil do artifacts (even though one does all and the other does 1)? What's the point in having it like that?

Good side doesn’t hit temple artifacts.

Exactly. The evil side can take out Temple Artifacts if that is what you want to target.

Since covenants and curses are considered artifacts while active, I guess this can negate&dc a covenant/curse played as an enhancement? That's kinda neat.

Yeah especially good against some of the newer curses (like unknown nation or fall of man) that can act as battle winners on the evil enhancement side.

Bingo! We pumped to the power level significantly by giving it a "mini-woes" effect when used in battle, as we continue to print Covenants and Curses that are designed to be used in battle, Destruction will only continue to get better

Another reason, that I don't think has been covered yet, are an increasing amount of cards that interact with an opponent playing Dominants of a specific alignment. A classic example of this is Pithom. Examples as recent as PoC are Kinsman Redeemer and Potphar's Wife.

I guess the last UR is "Faith"?
It has been previewed as full art card which I take as a hint. Am I correct?

Faith is not the UR, it was a player made card which traditionally have been Rares.

Kor is correct. Faith was done in the same “full art” style (still has a white border) as we used for all of FoM’s player created cards.

I get reveal the final UR, but it isn’t on the schedule until later in the week.

Today's last two rares we're picked for two different reasons:

The first so that players wouldn't see this 'niche' card as often in booster:

The second because it's very powerful:

Sorry if this has been answered somewhere, but what is the "David" star mean on the cards? Is it replacing X or something?

The star ability on a card is optional and can be carried out any time you draw a card (with a star ability on it) by game rule. There are two times that happens, your draw 8 at the start of the game and your draw 3 at the start of each turn. If you choose to use the star ability, you reveal the card and perform the action after the star.

In “revealing” the card Can it remain in your hand?

From the REG entry for Reveal:

Quote

● A reveal effect allows all players to see cards that are not usually visible to all players.

and

Quote

● A reveal effect does not change the location of the targets, just their visibility.

I am completely ignorant of what it takes (effort and time) to make the picture be on top of the border like that. But my goodness that is pretty! Please make this a regular thing as long as it doesn't take too much (time and effort). If it does, and it is something you can teach someone, teach me so we can keep this going!

The second rare of the day may very well be making an appearance in a bunch of decks this coming tournament season. Who will be the first person to break Necromancer?

Excellent set so far. It's amazing wow you guys just keep making better and better sets. The star of David icons are a brilliant idea and should speed up decks for sure. For the Exiles lost soul can the card top decked by that ability be drawn as the replacement card when the lost soul is drawn? Or does the drawing of the replacement card happen before the ability can be used?
