==Mechanics==
This block included the searchable Rebels and Mercenaries, Spellshapers, new cards with alternative costs, and new abilities playable by any player (i.e. <c>Squallmonger</c>). It introduced the keyword Fading and Rhystic magic — discounted spells and abilities that work properly unless a specified player pays a set amount of mana.
