Guess what? Looks like another unused Ixalan masterpiece artwork found a home, though from the first glance it looks like another Starcitygames alternative art.

Wait, what? When did you read that Ixalan had unused Masterpieces? I always said it should have had them in the set... This makes me sad
Is there a confirmed list/art gallery of other unused cards for it?
There is the ixalan artbook which has art that is not used on cards in the set.
High potential that the art was expected to go on masterpieces and they decided to screw it over.
Very high because all these cards with unused Ixalan art have "search" theme. Can't think about any other theme that would fit Ixalan masterpiece series better.

I thought that sudden change of the course from Masterpieces with stylized map frame for DFC lands with the same frame was a very well known fact.
Nope, not to me I guess. Sorry, I must have missed all that. Does anyone have a list of what other cards were possibly going to be in the scrapped Ixalan Masterpiece Set? I really don't understand, or don't agree rather, why we can't have random masterpieces in every set. They just went too big with it when it first came out. They don't need to make TONS of them, just a nice like 10-20 each set or something like that. And as long as the cards as somewhat desirable, it shouldn't matter.
Playing since 1994: Currently MAGS (HomeBrew),Standard & Pauper (Pioneer and Modern are degenerate trash formats)
STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.

Cats stir stuff up. It's an ancient cat figurine. Figurine = artifact = colorless.
Yeah I don't know
I like it though. It's pretty, and some people, strike that, LOTS of people, are sick of eldrazi. Run the old one in Tron and this in KCI and Hardened Scales

Yeah, I really do not like this art. It looks like some Leonin warrior being doomed, which isn't at all what Ancient Stirrings does.
The OG art is pretty fine, I'll stick with it for the foreseeable future.

The "Crazy One", playing casual magic and occasionally dipping his toes into regular play since 1994.
Currently focusing on Pre-Modern (Mono-Black Discard Control) and Modern (Azorious Control, Temur Rhinos).
Find me at the Wizard's Tower in Ottawa every second Saturday afternoons.
I 100% agree with the Scapeshift one for sure. I tried telling people when it was released with that art in M19, that I said this should have been an Ixalan Masters card for sure. Thanks
Usually I really love the 99% of the art direction of WotC new art reprints but this time not only I don't like it, but I don't even get it what the **** should be this supposed to be.
Yeah, cats are nice and everything, but it seems really so out of place and just inappropriate for this specific card.
Look closer. It's not an actual cat, but a cat-shaped figurine or relic, or, you know... an artifact. Which this finds.

Judge Merchant Scroll as well. We don't have a definitive list here, and I don't know of anyone who is maintaining one - it's an interesting list, but not really something that we're tracking since it's not ... exactly ... relevant. If there's serious interest in such a list, LMK. As far as other fetches, it's possible that they exist but Zack Stella told me that he was only assigned the one.
On topic - this looks like a jaguar figurine from Orazca, an ancient item that would start stirring once the city was claimed. Not that great of a stretch.

Can it be a cat artifact figurine from Amonkhet?
A ramunap excavator must have dug it up by accident.
