Honestly, I've been out of play for a long time. But I still have fond memories of the aesthetic of MTG. I remember getting a book with a fat pack once, that was awesome, though it's been too long since I've read it to remember much. Admittedly, I don't know too terribly much about the lore outside of some Ravnica stuff, and even that's largely in part thanks to getting my hands on a PDF of Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica. Also some scraps about Jace Beleran. I'm sure I'll be tossing up some Golgari art now and then. But anyways, last I played was Scars of Mirrodin when it was coming out (may the phyrexian scourge scour the lands!) Perhaps I should look into other books that flesh out the lore.

The cinders were a cool twist of worldbuilding in Shadowmoor. Sad to see that they've been replaced with Rimebound in the upcoming set due to what I assume is color balance reasons, but I want to see what new lore they come up with

what an evil spell

call me immature, but the artist doesn't seem to be a fan of underwear 😄

NOt the monsterfucker ray again!

Aside from Investigate, the fact that it's so dark for a Blue card makes me think it's set on Innistrad

I love this one. Feels more like a black card w/ the artwork but so good.

This prompted me to go buy a print for this one! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for the fangs. Trippy!

unless you have a line to play it and then tap it 4 to 5 times in the same turn, you're not getting it done.

That's been my experience as well. Seems to get removed within a turn or two every time I play it. Haven't actually been able to flip it yet

Fun card. It's rare to see players allow it to hit the face goal.

Not saying anything about Ethan or H3H3 but Teddy Fresh made this into a sick shirt:

apart from the gorgeous art, I now realize that this is going to go so well in my Anikthea deck. Sure it takes a little bit of work, but once I tokenize Gloomshrieker I can populate it and keep the recursion engine going. I don't want to tokenize ALL the non-creature enchants, as I'd rather have the strongest ones be just enchants for obvious reasons, but sometimes the self milling (of which I've got plenty) works against you...
