M13: Thragtusk and new Liliana and Ajani !

Thragtusk follows the trend of creature who creates token if he leaves the battlefield. A good addition for a Thromok EDH deck.

We already had Brindle Shoat, this one cost a lot more but also give life when he comes into the battlefield.
He's also fantastic in a deck with flicker abilities, like Deadeye Navigator.
This beast is a 5 power creature, so you can also play him in a  Mayael the Anima deck.

The new Liliana is a planeswalker that you should play in a mono black EDH deck (Griselbrand, Iname, Death Aspect, Korlash, Heir to Blackblade) that wants a lot of black mana, along cards who can generate lot of black mana like Cabal Coffers or Altar of Shadows and finish opponents with Exsanguinate.

Being able to guarantee a land drop each turn for no mana is really great !

Note that she isn't able to win a game by herself.

Ajani is a strong planeswalker. He's not able to protect by himself but he is cheap.Build an army and wait until you can use his ultimate. Again, this Ajani relates to your life number so find way to increase it.

M13: Odric and the Rings

Odric is a 3/4 first strike, enough to be hard to deal before putting over creatures to support him.

It's quite difficult to reach that number of creature but then, you can choose either to deal has much damages has possible since you can decide that your opponent don't block you or setting an edge by destroying ennemy creature.

A good idea is to couple him with Darien, King of Kjeldor.

 

 

The ring is a new cycle of equipment, an interesting cycle, their equip cost is really cheap.

The black one can provide a regeneration shield for each of your creature if you have a lot of mana.

The red one is quite good, cheap price for haste, and can help red creatures get bigger.

M13: Put the world in Fire

Worldfire is a red mythic card from M13.

What is the best thing to do with it ?

Play it in Jhoira of the Ghitu Commander deck and suspend a creature ?
Suspend Rift Bolt ? !! This card is fun !

M13: new red legendary goblin Krenko is here !

Krenko, Mob boss is a new legendary goblin. He is quite expensive, and don't have haste. Thus, He's ability is slow, but if he stays in play, you can't outnumber opponents with goblins. And how can you do that faster ?

Don't worry, he don't came alone, we have a functionnaly reprint of Dragon Fodder, with a new name.
He's a good new card for a Wort, Boggart Auntie commander deck.

By the way, he combo with Intruder Alarm :)

Don't forget that goblin token has already been pushed with Beetleback Chief

Krenko is part of a cycle of legendary creature with Talrand in blue, and Nefarox in black.

There's also a new angel called Sublime angel. We already knew that exalted was back in M13, in black and white this time.

M13: a new green legend and an old artifact

Legends are back in core set.. If you play it as your commander, you can play it by surprise : )
Maybe best to not play it as commander, but it's a good addition to any Commander deck !

Tormod's Crypt is back too !
