The cards are from Un-sanctioned, a set of five monocolour (?) precons full of on-cards. The intended gameplay is that you mix two of the precons together to form a two-colour deck and battle it out with another mixed deck.

They have some all-new silver bordered cards, but also have reprints of old silver bordered cards for the first time:

ex:

There's also basic lands, which are a split of foil, nonfoil, full art and non full art.

The full art basics are done in a style mixed with that of the previous unsets:

The non full art basics have a squirrel hidden somewhere in the landscape

This is all memory so parts of it could be wrong

so this says 'an opponent', not 'your opponent', so because we're silver-bordered the guy playing a game of magic next to you can also ring a bell and have it count right

I don't think so; it's just worded that way for games with more than two players

I'm pretty sure if they're not explicitly your teammate, they're your opponent. That's the blackborder rule so extending it seems pretty easy.

If you go with this reasoning then you could probably successfully argue that the card doesn't ever do anything because surely someone in the world makes a noise imitating a bell at least once every five seconds

What do people call the different card frames now?

Old/8th/New?

And is M15 the first set to have the new frames?

I would say Old and 8th are unambiguous. Some people might still think of 8th and M15 when you say "new" though. I tend to think of them as Khans of Tarkir frames because that was the first non core set that had them

I'm doing work looking over a medical report and somebody in this report is taking a medication called 'Pentavite' :supo:
Hope they've got a good supply of +1/+1 counters

Yeah, yesterday I was in a meeting and they were talking about an engineer named Bruna. A coworker says, "She's always doing two things at once, I don 't know how she does it." And I wanted to say, well, she has Vigilance.

This thing kind of has the look like it's meant to be an actual person. Is it? My only guess is maybe Aaron Forsythe
