Oh wow, it just occurred to me that the number of people doing the chant decreases each time it's said. That's ... eerie, but really atmospheric. Really goes to emphasize how difficult it must be to become one of The Worthy and what happens to people through the trials.
So Bolas doesn't just want an army... he wants just an army of undead. Not just an army of undead... but an army of undead warriors. Not just an army of undead warriors... but an army of undead warrior champion fighters forged by endless battle and zealously devoted to him as a god. .......*gulp*
Christian Sabado that was very cleaver but i think it line represents one of the gods and that the planeswalkers. You did get the colors right for each one and Nicol bolas being to rise eternal.
I don't think it represents the planeswalkers , I'm pretty sure its for the five trials of the gods. And if you were to complete the five trials of the gods , then you can "rise eternal" , kind of like the twelve labors of Hercules.
pls ccp we want some more ehh sorry wiz of the cost we want some more!!!! a fight of mining drones on a velspar saing why have you warp master...... Catalys on D !!
This collection was when I started playing, and it feels like another era. I'm currently rewatching all the trailers and when I got to this one I couldn't help but feel emotional about it. So many things have happened in MtG since then, and these trailers seem to capture a feel of wonder that newer trailers and collections don't have. The animations and showcasing of cards, the story being told, it's no longer present. The newer animations are cool, but they aren't the same. I don't know where I was going with this comment, but I guess I just feel nostalgic for this era of MtG that I didn't get to truly experience because it got replaced with what we have now after War of the Spark and the arrival of March of the Machines. Maybe it's just that I miss those earlier years of my life, but it possibly also is that Hasbro and Wizards have been pushing too many sets out and they don't feel the same. With Kaladesh, Amonkhet and Ixalan, we could truly explore these settings, get inmersed on a story with stakes on the setting and characters and now it just feels like we are jumping from one place to another. "Look, we are visiting a land of arthurian legend meets fairytales, and now it's kaiju-land and now it's zendikar again, but don't get to comfortable because we are going to Theros again and now it's Hogwarts in steroids, and now it's viking-world, and now it's New York, and now it's a cyberpunk Kamigawa and now we are in DOMINARIA, everyone, and now we are in New Phyrexia, and now New Phyrexia is no more..." I don't know. I'm nostalgic for the worlds we visited years ago, I guess. I hope one day at some point Wizards and Hasbro stop this mad dash forward aimed at getting money constantly without giving us, the players, an opportunity to truly explore and get accustomed to a set of characters and settings and to let us enjoy them better.
Still a fantastic trailer. The number of voices decreasing as the chant goes on is a chilling detail. The people of Amonkhet live and train together, forge friendships, and one day must sever them in brutal combat.
I gotta apologize. I'm a 26-year-old man and to this day I can't say Nicol Bolas without my inner self snickering a little bit. You see, Spanish is my first language, and bolas means "balls" in Spanish. So here we got this elder dragon plainswalker who is inmmensely powerful and his name is Nicol Bolas. Doesn't help that Nicol is more or less how you'd pronounce Nicole (as in Nicole Kidman) in Spanish xD
hahahaha I am from Chile and I had the same experience when I was introduce to the all mighty dragon planeswalker.... and his surname was "bolas/ pelotas / testiculos" and he had a girls name....such a beautiful memory.
I really like how these trailers express the flavor of their respective sets! And this is one of the better ones, though not exactly Eldritch Moon or Journey Into Nyx.
Pro: This is the first time where I feel like the elaborate 3D animation actually looks ok. Con: The last few trailers have been missing a good "who's who" or guided tour of the plane, to let us know what we'll be encountering in the new expansion. The Return to Ravnica and Theros trailers did a good job of showing us the different things that would appear in those blocks.
This is one amazing trailer! Kudos to the team behind this, and I look forward to future trailers with high anticipation if the delivered product is able to even remotely match this quality! The use of music was absolutely spot on, capturing a feeling of ominous power, cultic fervor and blind determination we can expect to find on Amonkhet, infusing the whole piece with a trope-laden flavor reminiscent of works like "The Mummy" (not really surprising, but delivered with delicious dedication). Also great incorporation of the Gatewatch at the end - dramatic but not overly cheesy. The animations have also been improved significantly in the last few years, going miles from "the cards, but slightly moving" to "depicting real action, but keeping the focus on the obvious inspiration (the cards)". All in all, wonderful work. *klick replay again*
End is Bolas saying the chant and turning on someone who has proven worthy when saying death. And the chant isn't about The gate watch, it's about the Gods
Could be one of the key characters staying in AMonkhet.. it also looks as though that gideon might have joined the trials to investigate more on what the trials are and intercepting Hakoret's spear. Coincidentally enough if you look at the lines of the chant, gideon has pretty much went through every single one of them
@@imthatmysticgaming9341 Nope, still the best. The animation is surely not on the same level of the new ones but this trailer is still 100% better in setting the atmosphere and the story of Amonkhet using very few elements
Bolas is totally trying to make a Planeswalker army loyal to him. The trials are all ways of weeding out the weak and ensuring only the best survive. Killing them in the end is probably an attempt to ignite the spark of a latent planeswalker that survived the trials.
If the netflix series does some stuff on Amonkhet, which is very likely as it centres around chandra and the gatewatch so it could start out with a few episodes each for their origins, battle for zendikar, Innistad, Tarkir, Amonkhet, Kaladesh, Ravnica, war of the Spark or possibly Theros too... They have slot of potential and there's an amazing team behind the production including the Ruso bros and writers of The Tick and Clone Wars TV series, someone who worked on Castlevania series and an animator who's reading through all the card art so I think this is gonna be a phenomenal series.
And there we go, Nicol Bolas is back front and center as the main bad guy. Looks like he's made himself another empire, but I wonder if it'll end up better for him than with his stint in Madara.
Okay so predictions as to how this will go...let's begin. If anything this is how I hope the story goes, from a standpoint of good writing as a writer, but...that's a lot to expect from Wizards, at times. -At the time of my writing this, three chapters of Amonkhet have been released, so it is already known that Gideon is facing the trials and is entranced by Oketra, who, if I'm correct, is the God at the end of this video. -Hour of Devastation is clearly referencing the 'Hours', which is the time in which Bolas returns to Amonkhet to destroy the Hekma, the barrier protecting the city from the outside desert, taking those loyal with him and leaving the rest to prove themselves. -I personally believe that in either Amonkhet or Hour of Devestation, Gideon will die. =If you look at the past set, which had a lot of development for Gideon, second only to Chandra in my opinion, it makes sense. He has grown incredibly close to Nissa and Chandra, with even Liliana admitting to respecting his strength early in Amonkhet. =They also have a new 'beefslab' (with a side of fur) in Gatewatch now, replacing the niche that Gideon had. =Gideon is a greek hero, which means there will be hubris in his death. Gods that wield spears like the spear that killed Gideon's friends has plenty of hubris. -Chandra and Nissa will get hit hardest by Gideon's death for the aforementioned reason. (It's not likely, but fucking props to WotC if they put an LGBT relationship into their main cast as aftermath of this. Chandra already seems interested, according to the third chapter of Amonkhet...) -Hour of Devastation will refer to the mourning of Gideon or the death of him, depending on when it happens. -Chandra will go full supernova against Bolas and potentially even hurt him, but let's get real, Bolas doth not die this block. Nissa will be assisting her. -Liliana will be focused on Razaketh more than anything, using the immense power of death in this realm to assist her in the assault against the demon - maybe a power that he overcomes and turns against her. Jace, following his emotions, will go with her more than likely, perhaps with a last minute pulling her ass out of the fire before the two of them go do the same, literally in this case, to Nissa and Chandra.
looks like right at the end that guy completed the five trials and was going to have his life threatened in order to ignite his spark. I guess if it doesnt happen you at least get to be a mummy...
Oh wow, it just occurred to me that the number of people doing the chant decreases each time it's said. That's ... eerie, but really atmospheric. Really goes to emphasize how difficult it must be to become one of The Worthy and what happens to people through the trials.

You think Nicol Bolas was doing that to see if he could find any planeswalkers on amonkhet to steal sparks from?

I could watch a movie based on mtg with these animations and enjoy it very much. In fact, this needs to happen.

This is the most hype MTG trailer I've ever seen
i'm here from the future to say: "war of the spark"
Theros beyond death is HAUNTING
Hello silver fang, I have travelled back in time to tell you that war of the spark’s trailer tops this, also, the corona vir- nvm
Journey into NYC is the best trailer to this day, and likely will be for a long time.
So nostalgic. I started playing right before Ixalan and Amonkhet block is still my favorite sets today.
same here, i still run a deck made out of almost all Ahmonkhet and Hour of Devastation.

Jace and Gideon be like "The stars are not in position for this tribute!"
"Like he says. Stars... can't do it... not today!"
I'm trying to think which one is Miguel and which one is Tulio.
Tulio is the intelligent one... so I would say, he is Jace.
The guy tackling my dude here is not Jace, it's the dude's boyfriend.
Jace and Gideon! Gideon and Jace! Together Mighty and Powerful Planeswalkers!

Buy Force of Will ! Buy Force of Will ! Buy Force of Will !
I gotta apologize. I'm a 26-year-old man and to this day I can't say Nicol Bolas without my inner self snickering a little bit. You see, Spanish is my first language, and bolas means "balls" in Spanish. So here we got this elder dragon plainswalker who is inmmensely powerful and his name is Nicol Bolas. Doesn't help that Nicol is more or less how you'd pronounce Nicole (as in Nicole Kidman) in Spanish xD
In my play group we call him "Sr. Testiculos"
hahahaha I am from Chile and I had the same experience when I was introduce to the all mighty dragon planeswalker.... and his surname was "bolas/ pelotas / testiculos" and he had a girls name....such a beautiful memory.
In france, it looks very much like the name of a TV host. Kind of hard to take seriously.
Well, I guess I learn something new every day about Lord Bolas. Oh gosh, I can't take that name serious any more!
Still not any more embrassing than the Bolas plushie.
I really like how these trailers express the flavor of their respective sets! And this is one of the better ones, though not exactly Eldritch Moon or Journey Into Nyx.
It is really fun to watch these after the set comes out and you can see all the art
They certainly said "Force of Will" a lot. #Reprint
That's the Blue Gods motto.
#ReprintConfirmed
We did get a reprint...as an invocation.
David LegitSurname that doesn't count. it doesn't effect the price at all.
aa, I was going to say this haha
So pumped! May Nichol Bolas reign supreme!
Gideon is having none of your sh*t, Hazoret.
Oh my god, the animations are improving.
The animation here is a MASSIVELY step up from the trailers before
Good on you, Wizards

Must have watched it six times and it still gives me chills
ok that was a good trailer, i would like to see more of the plane tho
Pretty stoked with all the Nicol Bolas imagery in the background. Ever the mastermind, that one.
Gideon has GOT to stop pissing the gods off.....
Doge god at 1:00 !
Such God, much Egyptian, very sandy. Wow!
Oh my goodness I can't wait for this set!
As someone who has played many other TCG THIS was the set that got me into Magic. You hooked me in with Egyptian Theme :)

I dont think a set trailer has gotten me more hype than Amonkhet before or since

can you see the future man? it was literally named like that

Is the god that we see the cat god or the doge god? I can't really tell with their new outfit.

Rewwgh That would be nasty in an old school hell-bent deck.
Yes but I wanted good EDH commanders, and this is very meh. Hopefully the white cat will be gud.
Hazoret IS good, just not (at least not obviously) in EDH.
