    Hooray for Dissenter's Deliverance!  Efficient support removal in green that you can cycle away if not needed.

    So, to clarify - if all of your opponent's cards in their library are exiled, do they lose the game, or do they start over with another 40 card deck?

    When you pitch a card from your hand, does it go to the exile zone?  Or can you get that card back after drawing the rest of your deck?

    I have no idea what they're doing with exile. Right now, exile is meaningless as long as more 40 card decks are created when needed.

    Giant Spider isn't actually very giant, is he?

    Glorious End looks like it would be fun with Act of Betrayal / Turn Against.

    If exiling actually exiles, then Aven Mindcensor + Day's Undoing / Fevered Visions or similar effects looks promising.  If the deck gets remade after 40 cards, I'm not sure what the point is.

    Can it be that mill is now a thing?

    It would be awesome if it is.

    I skimmed through the spoiler on my phone and none of the cards had an exclusive tag. Is this a technology failure on my part, is this a mistake on your end, or will the whole be available on day one?

    Does Cycling trigger even if there's no valid target for the card in question? To clarify, let's take Dissenter's Deliverance as an example. If your opponent has no supports in play, will that portion of DD fizzle, followed by an activation of the Cycling ability?

    As another example, let's look at Shefet Monitor. If I have three creatures that aren't Shefet Monitor already on the board, will I be able to decide to use it's Cycling ability instead of having it just take up a spot in my hand?

    Please provide some clarification on this point, because if that is the case, then Cycling cards are much more powerful than they appear to be!

    A follow-up to my previous question, this time about Embalm.

    Does each copy of a creature with Embalm that is in the graveyard get its own activation gem, or do they all trigger off of the same gem?

    Angel of Sanctions in particular will be quite nasty if the whole stack in your graveyard triggers off of the same gem.
