I like the fortress cause i have always like double strike (Jitte= Very Happy

) but also w/r is lookin awsome

Actually, the wall is insane, it is almost as good as wall of blossoms. It holds off weenies while netting you a card, for only 1GG. It holds of weenies even better than wall of blossoms, since this one actually kills them.

The other card is not that good, but not bad either, if you're mana base can support colorless lands, it can be really good.

I agree it wouldnt be bad if you could reuse it effectivly

I actually like them both, but since the wall is just a redo of an old card, the land got my vote. I think if your deck can find room for the land, it will be great. At first I thought the land was awful, but then I realized it's non-legendary, which means you could safely put 4 in (assuming your deck is ok on color mana).

hey if you give a double striker double strike is it quadruple strike or still double strike? I think its still double strike but im no sure.

And Craze, when you put cards in a Poll, please make them the same order as you put the pictures, I voted the wrong one now Evil or Very Mad

I like them both okay. Carven Caryatid will be good in some control decks or as a stall card but it is definitely much more particular about which deck you put it in due to the GG in the casting cost. Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion will obviously probably be an auto-include in any WR deck. But I don't necessarily see it as a 4 of in any deck. Even though it does not have the legendary drawback, I don't see it capturing more than 2 slots in any deck as it is more of a late game utility card than a staple or game-winner.

craze i think you broke the poll rule... you should have had all the preview cards =/

as for what we have i would say the land because it is a little more versitile (IMO) than the defender

I didn't break the poll rule....

i consider that close, but your the mod and im not soo...

anyways both cards seem cool, and both will be bombs in limited, but as for constructed...

Bomb? Hardly. But both cards are solid. W/R decks will be looking to replace Blinkmoth nexus as it is, so Sunhome may find a home.

On another note, why isnt Sunhome legendary? It is a place with a name, it should be.

The tree is decent, and will at least make the sb agaisnt random aggro like ww

ok maybe the defender isnt a bomb, but i have to say double strike is very powerful =/

i think the sunhome isnt legendary cuz they are trying to stray away from kamigawa
