Welcome to the Peculiar Flavor Roundup!
Every day at Peculiar Flavor, we bring you rejected flavor text from some of your “favorite” Magic cards. Whether it’s a visual joke, an absurd one-liner, or a response to the real flavor text, it’s guaranteed to make you laugh.* Each Monday on the Roundup, you’ll get to see a few of last week’s, ah… best entries.
On this Roundup, to celebrate the release of the full Battle for Zendikar set list: Barrage Tyrant, Ally Encampment, Horribly Awry, Endless One, and Shrine of the Forsaken Gods!

“Oh, isn’t that cute: They carved me holding a little stick thing,” said Ulamog.
Kozilek buried his face in his palms. “It’s called a ‘scythe,’ you moron.”
