Phyrexian Reaper's Oracle wording should to be modified back to its printed text. If my opponent activates its ability and reveals a card with converted mana cost 3, according to the printed text I could kill it by proliferating the +3/+3 counter. But the Oracle wording gives it 3 +1/+1 counters, so that won't work. Ditto for its interaction with Doubling Season.
Um... Phyrexian Reaper's Oracle wording IS the printed text. And it doesn't involve any card reveals or counters.
What card are you actually talking about?

I am thoroughly excited about the new EDH Commander decks that are coming out. Definitely buying all of them. I am, however, a little disappointed that the Commanders are going to be oversized cards. Maybe I'll be less tempted to tweak the decks and keep them stock. Regardless, very excited. Can't wait until they preview the cards that come in each deck.

They do need to fix that card. Not sure what is taking them so long.

There are oversized cards AND normal-sized versions of the three generals. You get to have your cake and eat it.
I'm disappointed. I heard there was going to be an EDH preview tonight, and got excited thinking there was going to be a new card previewed. Instead we get 1/3 view of 5 different cards, which doesn't tell us anything. WANT SPOILERS.

Oh, sweet. The oversized cards are an added bonus then (if you're into that sort of thing). I can get behind that.

Extra oversized cards is actually really cool. I'm excited for these decks. I just hope the power level is decent so you have more incentive to buy them than just for the legends. I'm not sure if the $30 price is for the extra cards in each deck, or for power...

The art of the new cards that I can see seems pretty cool. there is not many much I could comment though until the spoilers come.
I think though that the 30$ price is too much for a 100 card deck. The duel decks cost 20$ and have 2 decks with 60 cards each. 20 more cards for 10$ less. It is not like the oversize cards are of any use. You can just have them instead of the actual card if you use that general for the awesomeness. I don't say I wouldn't pay for awesomeness but 10$ for 3 oversize cards are way too much.
I just hope that the price is that high because of the high number of rares and mythic rares the decks will contain.

1) All-new content. That's unique (well, hopefully not, but it's new).
2) I predict these decks will be a lot better than most budget-costed pre-builts (I qualify it that way because they've done absurd things like a sliver deck and a burn deck with a playset of Lightning Bolts, but the Premiums aren't "cheap").
