When I saw someone open this card at a draft, I found someone and traded them for a copy. I just love Nielsen's art - geometrical designs worked in with natural images makes for an interesting picture.
The artwork just speaks to me, like i can feel the emotion of the Commander giving his authoriti (said like Eric Cartmen).
The way to sun hits the scene just gives it that magic touch.. pun intended lol

I know exactly what you mean, I do love Terese Nielsen (and Rebecca Guay, of course!) artwork. Have you seen her Guru lands? Phenomenal!
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Hmmm, all of my favorites are reprints - Angelic Benediction, Serra Avatar, and Serra Avenger, so I'm going to give it to Crusader of Odric to avoid having my decision overly-tainted with sentimentality (or the fact that I see a ginourmous Serra Avenger banner every time I walk up the stairs).
Komarck brings his A-game here. I love the detail on her uniform, the wind is blowing everything in the same direction, and the tip of her hat forms Avacyn's collar symbol. Genius. This is very much meant to be an "I am from this plane" piece and it works well. She pushes out the man himself because of the background - what's with that weird coliseum where Odric is? Or is it some sort of forum? And if that's the case, why does he have his sword drawn? The two other soldiers, as the visual clue for Odric's quasi-Battalion ability, work much better.

Talrand, Sky Summoner
Talrand is cool and the fusion between ocean and sky is jaw dropping and captures execlty the flavor of the character. Imo that art changed my perceptive on nature for real. Whenever I see a heavy rain cloud i just feel like there's a ocean on top of me.
