that art on the aura is a right-away contender for the worst of the last... 26 years.
You must have only played for a year i guess, some art has been truly horrendous.
Just go through antiquities, the dark, legends, or any of the really old sets.
I doubt this card will even make it in the top 500 worst art, maybe not even top 1000.
nope, since odyssey.
of course i went with a bit of hyperbole, but also not really.
I might be wrong, but this card seems to lack any text for what would happen if you are unable to sacrifice two lands ('if you do not, sacrifice this permanent'), nor is it worded as an additional cost or some such. Does that mean that if you play this as your first land, you wouldn't loose any lands at all?
Nope, you would have to sacrifice It. It enters, asks for the sacrifice, does it to self being the only land available.
I'm sorry for the off topic, but do you have a good word for even stuff like the horribly cartoonish Giant Strength from Legends or Dragon Mask? Seriously, when I was 8 I draw better honestly.
good? not really, but personally i prefer to see weird ugly drawings than generic "i'm trying" drawings - had it its own style those weirdnesses could've fleshed out into something nicer.
on the other hand, it's a bad common card in a core set, it's ridiculous i even complained in the first place. guess i got too impressed.
both are way more interesting and creative; scavenger may be ugly but it gets my attention right away with its weirdness and palette; and while WoC is low hanging fruit, at the very least it is menacing and unique, just lazily executed
The whole sacrifice activated abilities is a design space i wish they explored more - it'd hold off a bit the inherent power creatures are coming out the gates with while still maintaining them front and center.

Um what. No, it isn't. It's pretty mediocre, but the fact alone that the artist was capable of drawing the moonlight outline of the wolf's fur makes better than some of the truly awful art from MTG's past.
She's fairly accurate in this bland style of realism, but i prefer badly drawn pieces (and badly is pretty subjective) with style or at least better composition than this vanilla dutch-angled monstrosity.
Semi-decent is stretching... this is quite decent while our perception is a bit jaded by power creep.
If it was instant it'd be an auto-2-of in every blue deck in modern. As it is, it might enable better playing for a few control/tempo decks and that's fine.

Well, what could they print that would?

funnily, it can pay to disallow, repudiate, stifle or trickbind itself t1. "any one" color impeding voidslime.oops, enters tapped
i had been of spared of seeing it that time.
jeez
i'll unthank you for this

I assume it climbs trees bear style
Must really hate birds
if you'd be so kind
i won't
