Sad that the ugly art will be his PW card art. Oh well. First Jace I will not need to bother with getting. It'll save me time and money.
I personally LOVE that art though. Gives it that fugitive wizard feel, where Jace is in action and has to be sneaky as to avoid danger.
He looks old and fat. Ugh. Where is my lean, toned, sexy young Jace wizard? So upset.
Assuming this it the art you were referring to, as it was the one I was, he is most definitely not old looking, nor fat by any means. Pretty sure you are referring to another piece of art. He looks sneaky and somewhat stealthy here as he is on the move.
It's alright if you like it. But I truly just do not like this piece at all. I prefer the one on the Fat Pack. The "key art" as they call it. Same with BFZ - I love the key art of Gideon, but did not like his PW card art at all. Yet the key art never makes it onto cards, sadly. Can't stand that...

That is true. Individual taste is subjective here. I agree and am saddened that some art used for packaging and not on the cards, similar to a promo art of Kozilek, the Great Distortion.
I don't think he looks toooo bad there, but yeah bad angle. Weird one for a PW card, too. Overall though I really like the drawing. Chase Stone's Jace, the Living Guildpact is still my fave.

That's my favorite too. He looks great on Oath of Jace, Jace's Erasure and Calculated Dismissal too. Love those arts of Jace.
Evil Avacyn looks so much like Christina Aguilera omg.
That image of her beside Jace reminded me of "Not Myself Tonight"'s single cover.
And it's suprisingly apt.

Not feelin' that Sorin art, lighting be damned. Maybe it's cause he is pissed and stressed, but ick. He's a vampire, needs more handsome in the vein of Avacyn still lookin remotely beautiful while "evil".

I SEE IT NOW TOO! Damn Bionic was an amazing album. I Am, Stronger Than Ever, Monday Morning... Birds of Prey. Which would fit the theme of SOI actually.
Sorin looks handsome in his tight pants in the Avacyn, Jace and Tamiyo art. I don't know why his Booster and PW card art, like Jace, had to be so terrible. Funny that some of the best art isn't even on cards in a card game? Like Heliod killing Elspeth, or some of the land art from Theros. At least Unknown Shores from Theros was printed. If that art has not made it on a card, I would have lost it.
That's my favorite too. He looks great on Oath of Jace, Jace's Erasure and Calculated Dismissal too. Love those arts of Jace.
Yeaah between oath of jace and the key art this block, I was quite happy he's looking better after the horrendous Origins key art. This set's key art is great (dat countour) and I wish we got Jace without his hood on his card.
Booster images could be better, but the rest of the packaging look great. I wanted to just buy a booster box this time and not a fat pack, but I might get both just because the fat pack looks so cool.

Before the glory of Yawgmoth, yes, even this makes sense.
I don't know why y'all are getting so hyped for the fat pack box. It's just the jace key art again... The prerelease kit box on the other hand actually looks cool and unique. It's Tamiyo's journal unless I'm mistaken.

Feel free to tell me yours!
The little blue deckbox has the same symbol that was on Tamiyo's Journal. The card WoC said to pay attention too and how the Journal Entry numbers were different in each language.
So this means no Emrakul in Innistrad? so much for the lovecraftian horror theme
what makes you conclude that?
Common sense?
Did i miss a post or something like that? Weren't alot of people today thinking emmy may actually be in (based on the art of wasted landscape and the other one with the tentacle things? Mi literally just asking.
@Time_did_reverse:
Maybe some people still give traction to the eldrazi theories, though I think that Thing in the ice is the revelation of what our Cthulhu monsters are in this block.
Also, it specifies the subtype "horror" which has not been used a lot since Torment I believe.
We will have something, probably Runo Stromkirk "Sea God", though it's going to be an horror, not an eldrazi.
Pretty much what I was thinking. Would prefer this to the Emrakul idea, and I think it's more likely.
I think Jace will get corrupted and become U/B. So the question is will we get a Jace before or after he gets corrupted ?
Look at the fat pack/booster box and compare it with the Jace on the booster. The one on the booster box is much darker, even purple.
We can hear Jace saying "The source of this evil must be found before its dark presence consumes the world, consumes me" in the SOI trailer.
Let's go back in November 2014 at PAX Australia. Aaron Forsythe said that Tamiyo may (time to time ?) replace Jace. (~25:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V4nYRxG1G8)
And in the artwork that has been leak which we see Avacyn, Sorin, Jace and Tamiyo. Jace seems to be hurt (corrupted/cursed?).
Of course all of this is speculation. What do you guys think about that ?
Planeswalker key art is always better than card art. Gideon looked beautifully badass in Gatecrash and BFZ key art, but Ally of Zendikar looks like an ape.
Elspeth looked gorgeous in New Phyrexia/Mirrodin Pure key art, granted Knight-Errant, Tirel and Sun's Champion are all still very beautiful, just less epic.
Chandra's M14 Game Day playmat art is magnitudes more beautiful than any card art she's ever had.
Both of Sorin's DKA key arts looked much better than either of the card arts for Lord of Innistrad.
And yes, Jace looks Igor-ish in his SOI card art while the key art looked like a respectable investigator.
I just hope Liliana's EMN art is good because they key art is gorgeous and she's not had much luck with card art other than the three versions of Vess.

The key art for this and for BFZ are some of the best arts for their respective subjects. (probably the best, for Gideon).
