Was the absence of Preeminent Captain from Odric an over-sight, or do you feel there aren't enough soldiers in the deck tosupport him?

While the other two options from Magic 2013 are direct, sincere, and obvious in what they want, Yeva is a bit more suggestive.
Interesting choice of words, there.

Okay, here is the clincher. I've been waiting to say this.
The "cam girl" this was inspired by was just a girl from a social networking website, Stickam. Her name was TinyTerror and she was just a regular girl who was on her webcam, totally unrelated to any type of adult content.
I hope you all feel really smart now. 
This is like someone coming into class with a bloody nose and everyone's like "Jeez what happened to you" and they're like "I ran into a wall" and everyone laughs at them for being an idiot but then at the end of the class they say "HAHA JUST KIDDING I PUNCHED MYSELF IN THE FACE!!!!!! TALK ABOUT OWNED HAHAHAHAHA"
I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.
Sorin walked into the chamber where his newly wed bride, Vampy, awaited. A beam of moonlight illuminated his brilliant silver hair as he strode with confidence towards the bed. His shirtless body showcased his powerful abdominal muscles and he was wearing jeans with holes in the knees.
I wish more girls play magic cards... 
Have you considered assassinating Kevin?

"This Friday" is the 13th, not the 20th, so which is it?

That makes no sense to me.
If they spelled the ability out on the card in full then it would not be allowed in a mono-black Commander deck, but because they used a keyword to save space it is allowed?
~ Tim
Yup, just like you can have Birds of paradise in a mono green deck but not Noble Hierarch . YAY COLOR IDENTITY 
Is algebra really that difficult?
Survey says yes.
You want to make a milky drink. You squeeze a cow.
I love this description. Like the cows are sponges filled with milk. I can see it all Nick Parks claymation-style with the cow's eyes bugging out momentarily as a giant farmer squeezes it like a squeaky dog toy, and milk shoots out of it.

"Each of the new Magic 2013 Intro Packs brings a premium foil version of a legendary creature. "
Adam, there's no premium foil. Wizards has made cuts. Again.

Do the Intro Packs really not have foils at the front anymore?!

Yeah, I want to know if this is true or not. I really wanted a foil Krenko.

No, the legendaries are pretty shiny alright. I might be wrong, but it looks like they are using the From the Vault foiling method now. It certainly seems different.

Correct. There are Soldiers, but there's a ton of non-Soldier stuff too. The Soldier Lords are nice together, but I don't foresee tons of extra Soldiers in hand.

The 20th is the correct date. I have something special planned for everyone's deck lists.
Yes, everyone's.
