Cycles
A lot of the articles have left the "Cycles" field blank, but it is appearing on the display page. Could someone who knows how to play with it make Cycles an optional field? Another solution would be to 'add' the cycles (whatever they are) to articles such as the Ravinca block. -- saberwyn 04:22, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Should add Theme section
It seems that a large part of recent Magic: The Gathering sets has been a common theme. Odyssey had graveyard manipulation and discard, Onslaught had tribal (Creature type matters), Mirrodin had artifacts, Kamigawa block has legends, Ravnica has 2-color guilds, and Time Spiral has basically temporal gameplay (Flash, Suspend, Split Second) and nostalgia. These should be listed in the infobox template. In the case of Time Spiral it would be Timeshifted cards, homage cards, and use of old mechanics.

What does Mechanics entail?
What is the different between a mechanic and a keyword? Right now, 4 creature types are listed as mechanics under Time Spiral, yet creature type has little to do with the set, except for a throwback to Onslaught and Tempest block with the return of slivers or the return of some rebels from Mercadian Masques block. Anyway, these aren't mechanics, they are just creature types and make up only a small portion of the set.

Maybe mechanics should be replaced by new mechanics, in the case of Time Spiral: "Flash, Suspend, and Split Second". I know Flash is an old mechanic, but it gets a keyword now and a lot more supporting cards of the ability.
