Sinister Concoction

Theros Reprint Query

New 28 Jan 2020 Asked by gophilipbowles 34 Comments

"Do you know if either Zombie Infestation or Sarcomancy were discussed for reprinting in Theros Beyond Death?" FYI, Sarcomancy is on the Reserved List and Zombie Infestation doesn't fit Theros' flavour, as the only 'zombies' are Returned. I would have liked Sinister Concoction, though, a sacrificial enchantment that also fuels the graveyard.

Orpheus and Reprints

New 19 Jan 2020 Asked by gophilipbowles 49 Comments

As someone else disappointed by the lack of Orpheus in an Underworld set, did you consider reprinting Rescue from the Underworld? I like seeing rarely-reprinted cards in new draft and Standard contexts, and it seems Theros has remarkably few reprints despite good opportunities to reprint Theros-themed cards (e.g. Fanatic of Mogis to complete the almost-cycle of uncommon devotion ETB creatures) and non-Theros cards that synergise with the set mechanics and flavour (e.g. Sinister Concoction).


I’m pretty sure Rescue from the Undereworld was in the set when we handed off vision design. I don’t know why it got cut in set design. Probably because escape was hitting this flavor.
