What colour would an Aboleth be? Could a Legendary Aboleth be in Rakdos colours?

Evil mind aberrations? Black/Blue I would think.

So, White Dragons are White...interesting Color Wheel bend there.

Why is it Frost Tongue instead of Frost Brand... or have I missed things over the editions.

Don't know?

Not too surprising to me, given that the five colors of chromatic dragon line up exactly with the five colors of magic.

You have a three card ritual to summon Vecna as a Zombie God token, that's amazing.

Very cool flavor, I have a hard time imagining it will be worth the effort most of the time.

The default Adventure party appears in all of all of Choose Your Advebture cards, I love that.

Dice rolling is in black border cards as a mechanic, that's wild.

Yes! Very cool stuff!

I don't know if it needs to be... Exodia like group of cards are almost always popular, just for being cool.

True, I had wondered if theybwould go for it since the Chromatics do not fit the cor philosophy or Land types particularly (at least the Blue Drsgon is an odd fit), but I guess they are going there.

Yeah, remains to be seen: depends on what the Eye and Hand do. It seems to be something to build an entire deck around, potentially.

Yes! Very cool stuff!

They are hitting the D&D flavor so perfectly, it's amazing.

With white dragons being white and the dragon orb we see being a red artifact, it's conceivable that there are dragon orbs of the other 4 colors as well.

It's interesting, the origins of this Set as a "Dungeons & Dragons themed Core Set" become more clear as I see more cards. Orb of Drsgonkind, from Dragonlance, Vecna, from Greyhawk. Lots of generic pulls from the PHB, New characters who are as much generic D&D as Forgotten Realms specifically....

Oh, for sure!

Possibly, though 5-color dragons seems to be an archetype they are going for here with Tiamat.
