Looks like WotC really noticed that people like Seb McKinnon art, huh. He's been getting a lot of cards recently.
Some people like Rebecca Guay's artwork, but Wizard's isn't commissioning her for regular art sets. I find Seb's artwork similar to Rebecca's in that it's not realistic, which is what I thought Wizard's creative direction has been.
Now that you mention it, Terese Nielsen doesn't do many pieces for regular sets anymore. Wich is a shame. Good thing Seb is picking it up big time.
Hopefully we'll see more abstract pieces in regular sets in future sets from different artists. Like 75% / 80% realism and 25% / 20% more abstract pieces.
Seb Mckinnon knocking it out with the creepy cool art yet again.
While it is rare, here are two people agreeing on the internet.
I love that Seb is getting at least one card a set. If only Terese Nielsen, Greg Staples, Carl Critchlow, Marc Zug, Mark Tedin etc would also chime in every set.
The card itself is very playable. EDH staple and might see standard play.
So if all the guilds with Planeswalkers have fallen to Bolas, does that mean that the true saviors of Ravnica are the guys that probably are in charge of throwing birthday parties and likely blew up a couple of peoples houses in the process?
Ravnica's final hope lies with the gatewatch, a demon lord and the guild that once made a giant ooze to take over the city by reasorbing cytoplast/prostethic limbs.
Growth Spiral is as beautifull as it is playable. I love it!
Lovinia looks pretty playable. Espescially in Legacy and vintage where it can stop moxen, leds, daze, fow, gush and even early show & tells, tendrills and ad nauseams.
Ooh look, another Neo-Walker killing old established characters that where previously undeafetable just so wtc can shove more walkers down our throats! Yes, these neo-walkers sure are just like any other wizards.
Unless there’s something from the original Ravnica block that indicates otherwise I don’t think the Obzedat was ever previously undefeatable. And they’re literally bringing in someone who’s power set is incredibly specific for this exact task. Get over yourself.
They made it a point that the Obzedat was near untouchable during the last block.
But very well, say this assassin that stabs ghosts whalzes in and kills off the Obzedat. Why would she lead the guild other than wotc's wills? All the other nobility simply stop their plotting and withdraw their aristocratic and bureacratic rights simply because their current leader is dead? I don't think so. Oh Bolas secured a place for her? Did he kill half the guild or something?
There is no way that the Orzhov would accept a stranger, with no ties to them, as their leader. Except when wotc sees a way to shove some more walkers down our throats by supplanting/beating excisting lore or figures.

5 mana 5/5 flying with a great mana sink is pretty good.
This is both and i love it. It has serious potential.
Cool card!

I like the art less, but really dig her flavor text.
