Judge promo or foil Apocalypse version of vindicate
I love some promo's so normally I would snap pick the promo, so long as it was the 2007 promo and not the Sorin art. But the Apocalypse printing has a tie fighter on it. So for this specific situation I would take the Apocalypse pack foil over either of the promos.
So my order is also
That's a good question. I think if you are running all 10 Shocklands, the Rob Alexander set looks best all together as a cohesive set. However, for Blood Crypt, I like the Vincent Proce one quite a bit too, and the foil looks better than the Dissension foil in my opinion.
My shock lands preference is actually the newer versions for them all. I really like the Rob Alexander set for it's artistic similarities, but comparing them all side by side, I think the newer versions are better.
@ravnic: I prefer the original Dragon Fodder, but in the case of Dragon Fodder or Krenkos Command: Why not both? (I must admit, my opinion is influenced by the fact, that I really like Goblins).
@Chained to Life: I like the Masterpiece version more.
OG Sundering Titan and it isn't close. Masterpiece frame looks bad, the foiling looks very bad, and the art on the Masterpiece isn't even especially interesting.
I can't say I'm pleased to see you and must warn you I may have to do something about it.

Pauper: URDelver
Modern: UGRDelver
Draft my cube: Eric's 390 Unpowered
Pillage: 7th edition
Swords: Ice age, the Duel Deck version doesn't express the cards flavor in my opinion.
Punishing Fire: Zendikar, looks more punishing to me.
Rampant Growth: Mirage, as I like it most.
Pillage: Arena foil, it has the original RKF art in an old frame foil.
StP: It may be heresy to many here, but I like the new Terese Nielsen art so much I had a border extension alter commissioned of it. Also, the foil is pretty reasonably priced on this art. You can get an EMA or FTV foil with this art for around $5.
Punishing Fire: I prefer the Duel Deck art.
Rampant Growth: If you prefer old frame foil, 7th Edition is your only choice, but that art is fugly. The Tempest art is my favorite of the bunch, which you can get in foil from 8th or 9th Edition.

Note that what you call "the new artwork" is actually older than the Odyssey one: It's from Tempest. (And I personally like it more.)

Alliances or Foil 7th
Ice Age or Eternal Masters art?
Duel Deck vs Foil Zendikar
these rampant growths will be foil if possible but I'm stuck on the art
I like the Ice Age versions, more like swords to birdshares, amirite?
I like the OG for Punishing Fire, the dragon is pretty uninspiring.
7th edition because it's so ******* ugly, but I guess the middle one looks best? They all suck IMO.
