Innistrad is my favorite plane and this was a great breakdown of it, though as you can imagine from that statement I'm not particularly fond of Nahiri. Thankfully its implied from what spoilers we got so far that the good silverfur pack are still around and play a role in helping humanity. This renewed reputation, despite Tovolar's machinations, is probably due Arlinn who seems to be the main character of this set and made a name for herself leading some uncorrupted werewolves in defense of the relm. Sadly despite Cathar, Witch and Werewolf coming together to hold back the night, it seems their efforts will fail if a mysterious tome has any say on the matter. As for my favorite creatures, they are the angels, humans belonging to the church and the good werewolves. So the new white/red werewolf Brutal Cathar has quickly become my favorite non legendary creature for combining two of these aspects. (going by the fact that hes white/red and his pelt is grey and white, the mark of a silverfur)

Lorebrarians' take on Innistrad, and with a DiceTry cameo? What a treat! Thanks for a great vid on one of my favorite planes. I've been seriously wanting to run a D&D campaign in Innistrad, if I had the damned time xD

@markthegriffin 2 жыл бұрын

So glad you've gotten to Innistrad! And really appreciate the level of detail youve gone into as far as the worldbuilding. The story for Innistrad rightfully gets focused on a lot, but the worldbuilding has always struck me as a super creative take on Gothic Horror meets Epic Fantasy, if that makes sense?

Yes, I love the worldbuilding aspect of MTGs planes. So much rich lore and story that often gets left out of the spotlight. Glad you enjoyed!

Lorebrarian as always, stunning content and really happy with the new video, keep up the great work! You have a great voice and the level of detail is way better than what other magic channels can offer and do. *The only thing I am upset about is how we only got 1 new legendary werewolf (Tovolar), I was honestly expecting 2 to 3 new legendary werewolf commanders because the block is themed around werewolf's!!! I know the block gave us a new art card and style of Arlinn Kord, but she was expected to be in the set. Just wishing WOCT would pay more attention to smaller subspecies legendary cards. *Also does anyone else think we will get a Phyrexian appearance with the next block maybe Jin Gitaxias, or Sheoldred.

Hey do you have a source for where you say there are "tales tell of land beyond the water, but none can verify their existence". I always felt like Innistrad was a pretty small plane that they left open to expansion at some point in the future. It would be great to have a source that also implies this. Thanks.

Innistrad, the most gothic, terrifying and scary plane of all the Multiverse. Where the human race has to survive every day, knowing that when the pale sun goes down, the night will set free every kind of monster the plane has to kill, enslave or do worst to them, and their only hope is to pray angels to fight to their side, as they do the most fearless charge into the unknown, hoping to slay whatever there is in that dark pitched night before it get them.
