Oblivion Sower

Lands from Exile

"No color should be playing lands from exile (of cards it didn’t put there)." - Is this a colourless ability then? Oblivion Sower allows you to get lands from exile, even those not put there with its exile ability. Or is Oblivion Sower a card that shouldn't exist?

Just because cards do things that aren’t square in a color doesn’t mean we shouldn’t to them. We design bends all the time.

Eldrazi Naming Scheme

"Endbringer," "Reality Smasher," "World Breaker," "Oblivion Sower." Someone should really talk to the Eldrazi PR team, because I think they'd get better traction with their whole initiative on Zendikar with names like; "Justice Bringer," "Prejudice Smasher," "Enmity Breaker," and "Equality Sower." All I'm saying is it's far more inclusive and sends a much more positive message that the Zendikaris might respond better to! An equal multiverse is a greater multiverse after all! :)

I don’t think the Eldrazi have a PR department. Hmm, a potential weakness for the Gatewatch to exploit.

Gameplay Mechanics

Say I have an Oblivion Sower in a multiplayer (3+ people) game and get killed. What happens to the lands that belong to another player which the Oblivion Sower brought into play on my side of the field? Do they leave the game?

When you die, cards you are own leave the game.

So after the spoilers of yesterday: Why Oblivion Sower is not a processor ?

Processors specifically use up some number of exiled cards owned by the opponent for an effect.

Exile Interaction Stance

You've mentioned that you don't like effects that interact with cards in exile other than the card that put them there. Have you changed your stance on this with Ingest, a mechanic that clearly puts cards in exile for use with other cards (like Oblivion Sower?)

A good topic but I need you all to see the whole set first.

What are your thoughts on Oblivion Sower being able to bring lands exiled before it enters the battlefield into play?

I have many thoughts, but it is not yet time for me to share them. Fear not. When the time is right you will hear all about it.
