  • posted a message on cute (like a puppy) black creatures
    The original art was called "dark judge" and the rabbit is a Puca dragging the soul to judgement. The artist gives a full description/explanation here: http://www.randyasplund.com/pages/fantpg/darkJudge.html


    That certainly clears up the rabbit there. But what about the other two with the rabbit? What's there story?

    Back on topic, Marsh Flitter has a cute little fairy with some adorable goblins.

  • posted a message on Liliana is now a drug mascot
    Quote from RevolverGunman
    But that is Liliana of the Veil's art, and it is still WotC's character being depicted.

    To elaborate farther, when the artist (who's name escapes me) drew the picure of Liliana caressing Chandra Wizards asked him to take it down because as a WotC commissioned artist he represented them with the pictures he drew were seen by people on the Internet. The character of Liliana Vess is trademarked to Wizards, and the art in Liliana of the Veil also most likely belongs to Wizards.


    Steve Argyle did that picture. He said something to how since he drew the picture of Chandra and Liliana being... close, it created a sort of quasi-canon that wasn't in line with what Wizards wanted. That and it's pretty risque too.

    But, on topic. I think Argyle could get some Wizards help to pull this distribution. I don't know how it works but, maybe?

    Have you given any thought to Glissa, the Traitor?

  • posted a message on New Liliana/Ajani?
    I think, considering that the Ajani and Liliana in the video share a similar style to Firebrand, Memory Adept, and Primal Hunter, that there will be a new Ajani and Liliana in M13.

    Speculation, of course, but like yuzakk said, maybe they want to finish the cycle?

  • posted a message on Wow, Magic players sure are petty.
    I don't think that it's solely Magic players that would do this. This kind of stuff happens for anything free. But, I agree, it's pretty pathetic.

    If you're going to do anything about it, talk to them about it.

  • posted a message on Gideon Jura Lore
    Chandra did. I think Gideon is a pretty awesome character, if a little bland. He just fits in with the rest of the planeswalkers in that they just have generic feel to them. But, he's still awesome.

  • posted a message on [[Official]] Trade Evaluation -- Pile A versus B
    I think your safest bet is to trade Sorin away for Goyf. Sorin is currently flavor of the month so he should go down.

  • posted a message on Dark ascension has....
    The art is pretty bland...

    No, just kidding. I think this set has really spectacular art. I do agree that it is a little lackluster but, scaling the power level back is good. Just gotta take the bad with the good, I suppose.

  • posted a message on [DKA] Examiner.com preview: Markov Blademaster
    Oh man, I want to like this card so much. Good ability, great art, but man it's ruined for the fact that it's not swinging till turn 4 and by then it can be chump blocked by anything. There's no doubt she could get crazy in a few turns but with Geistflame and such rolling around, she's not going to see any play. Even if it weren't, she's not that great. Granted, she could be useful but that tiny body is too much of a setback.

    Honestly, this thing can be a big threat. The problem is that a lot of things can be a threat while left unchecked. I think this is just a pretty bad card. I like that it's balanced and all, but I think it would've been better if Wizards used the art for something else.

    Looks like a pretty cool card. Lots say it's not good for Standard and it probably isn't. But, maybe should be fun to have in casual.

    Is Sorin doing the Dreamworks face? Anyways, packs looks interesting. Perhaps with Sorin being the face of the enemy colored half of Innistrad, maybe he'll be as well? Stretch reasoning for him being B/W but maybe?

    Quote from Hvirfilvindr
    Doubtful - it's probably a generic angel being destroyed. Akroma, Angel of Wrath has protection from Black, so she's immune to Doom Blade.


    I know there's certain similarities and certain differences making and breaking who the angel is. But, if it was, pretty funny since Akroma can't get hit.

    The angel on Doom Blade looks like Akroma, Angel of Wrath to me. Looks like, anyways.

  • posted a message on Will Snapcaster Mage hold it's value?
    Like what Biggus said, unless it gets reprinted it will keep it's value. It's a great creature. It might go down a few dollars but roughly the same price.
