Yeah, I need minimum 100 of these. Each. 40-50 of them for my cube, another 20-40 each for current and future EDH decks, and another 20-120 just in case.
Damn I am glad I am getting a box of Unstable, those lands are gorgeous. (Plus I've been talking with my Commander play group, we'll be allowing silver bordered cards at the table come December, so.... I hope there are monkeys in Unstable, because I want to make an Unstable monkey/ape commander deck so bad. >.<)

It's weird. Whenever they randomly stumble across something that is really beloved by players, they always seem to overdo it the next time and they come off as kinda meh.
Same thing with the Terese Nielsen Judge Foils that everyone completely lost their minds over.. Once again, the original GURUS are just lightyears more interesting and visually striking but everyone just fell all over themselves trying to out-praise eachother over a cycle of fairly generic-looking full-art lands. Silly.
These are...OK. Was honestly hoping for landscape-oriented full art lands. THAT would have been actually 'innovative'. These really aren't.
I'm sure this won't be a popular opinion. Just expressing myself. Enjoy your Unstable lands, everyone.
Those pictures are fairly blurry, but the only one I like is the Swamp. That Forest looks like re-purposed Swamp art, a bunch of dead trees and they just added a green glow to the background to make it look more lively? The Plains, Mountain, and Island all look badly rendered, like maybe they were good looking at one time, but someone lowered the resolution before sending it to the printers. Once again blown up projector images might be skewing them to much, but that graphic art can backfire as much as succeed.
Absolutely beautiful. I see why they do this - this is how they sell the set to the average MTG player...it's effective. I had ZERO interest in the un-sets. But these lands...son of a...

Yeah, they somehow feel less "sincere" than the Unhinged ones. Like Unhinged was a work he's proud of and these are the 31Kth encore of Freebird.
The color coded tops make them look extra tacky.
The art in these is simply stunning. Love John Avon. I'm sure I will never have them though, since their price is going to be absurd.
They are also light-years better than the judge foils from Terese Nielsen.
The only complain that I have is that the swamp and the forest look very similar in structure, and the mountain and the island even more so. Wished they were a bit more different from each other.

Would you like to read Commander stories? Check my latest stories, coming from Lorwyn and Innistrad: Ghoulcaller Gisa and Doran, The Siege Tower! If you like my writing, ask me to write something for your commander as well!
THOSE ARE SO SEXY LOOKING
Avon is still the master.

I LIKE DRAGONS!
Invocations are tournament legal.
They updated the rule from "black" or "white" border to "non-silver"
But Invocations are tournament legal despite not having border
No they are legal
I see the old full art un land in commander a lot

I also feel like I've seen these before.

Read my other stories as well (some ongoing):
