Feb 3, 2014joeyjojo posted a message on Launch Giveaway!Stoneforge mystic. I enjoy strapping equipment on to creatures, and this one lets you choose the best one for the job. There's nothing quite as satisfying as pulling out an equipment and turning the meekest of creatures into a flying death machine (never mind the logistics of how a bird might carry multiple swords).Posted in: Announcements

I also really like the art on Basandra, battle seraph, especially in foil, but the combination of her cost, color identity, and abilities really discourages me from taking apart my WR deck and rebuilding it around her.
Mishra, artificer prodigy, is another I like, partly for lore reasons. I don't think I could ever justify getting a nether void, though.
In terms of generals that I don't want to use based on art, I'd have to say Marchesa, the black rose. It's not that the art is bad per se but I would have preferred the art of something like power play instead. Hanna, ship's navigator is one where I liked the idea of her kind of deck but not the art. Good thing the Terese Nielsen version came out.

But really I'd prefer magiccards.info to get up to speed again.
Edit: Included a comparison with other cards
Given that board wipes generally start around turn four I think you should also consider recursion options even if they don't contribute directly to a hyper aggro plan. Return to the ranks and proclamation of rebirth are good choices if you're keeping your curve really low. Marshall's anthem provides a boost to your creatures while also having some late game utility as a recursion spell. Lapse of certainty and even mana tithe can also be good options if you anticipate your hyper agressiveness forcing opponents to tap out to cast their board wipes. They also work off of sunforger.
In terms of removal it'll probably also help to have them attached to bodies. Soltari visionary and duergar hedge-mage come to mind.
