Skill is an ability that relates more so to the type of deck that's built and how said player pilots it. It also relates to the ability to assess the board and use the cards available to you in the most optimal way relative to each situation.
When a deck is filled with above par cards and every play is solid, there comes a diminishing need to "think" for the lack of wanting to use a better word.
Just did a few checks on the flavor text of new cards:
Elesh - 0
Norn - 0
Grand - 1
Cenobite - 0
Kind of wanted to find out what a Cenobite is.

Out of the blackness and stench of the engulfing swamp emerged a shimmering figure. Only the splattered armor and ichor-stained sword hinted at the unfathomable evil the knight had just laid waste.
So two things, the first of which is not the poll:
1) Anyone who can compile the artist data into names and possible cards comissioned (and for bonus points, get it all to add up to 249) would be appreciated. RL is keeping me from doing that research.
2) Poll! Been mulling a little over various things, such as whether I should just lump everything together in proper nouns rather than subcategorize into plane-specific terms or not. Any thoughts on what to change for when I wipe the template for next time (and/or pass it off, depending)?
If anyone wants to send me a list or a link with known MtG artists ill gladly *at least attempt lol* going through the orb with them ^^

SonofaBith - Wizards was so excited about making the packaging for Modern Masters 2 recyclable, they decided to make most of the rares and all but 1 of the UC's recycle-bin ready too. Convenient!
dont know if this is posted yet but there is 15 instances of spellbomb so there should be 5 spellbombs total.

"On top of that, if you ever manage to T2 Lead the Stampede, fill your hand, and pitch two Vengevines on your cleanup phase, the sky rains kittens wearing tophats, each carrying a sock full of quarters. True story."
if this means anything
Or its a True Believer Reprint.

AND EVERYONE KNOWS THERE ARE TWO LOCUS!
>_<
I don't think so. On the card Darksteel Colossus the word colossus is used 4 times. So I don't think that its being reprinted.
More likely is that the land is a Locus and has text similar to Cloudpost, adding mana equal to the number of Locus on the battlefield.

Well, in Hellraiser the Cenobites were "extradimensional beings" who used to be human and are summoned by a magical puzzle box....
But I don't think there are any of those in magic....
