Cool Card Design of the Day9/11/2012 - Today I've got no rules text, nor even a vanilla creature for you. Instead, I wanted to share some art that I found while making other cards that seemed nearly perfect for some basic lands. They're all a bit foggy and make me think of world shrouded in mist. What kind of block would these basics belong to? While you see a lot of mist in horror worlds, we just did that in Innistrad. Plus these just don't feel scary, so much as mysterious or primeval. Perhaps these are lands from an undiscovered world. The question is,
What are they hiding?
these are definitely basic lands from an ancient and mysterious plane, where the shadows of past events still linger not he land itself. The inhabitants have all but shut themselves away from the world, afraid of the powers that might bacon them to venture into the deep lands, afraid that they might re-awaken the ancient powers that were culled centuries ago...
ReplyDeleteso I definitely typed that way too fast, and my phone auto corrected some things... apologies for the mistakes :(
DeleteI love it. It's so spooky and then BACON!
DeleteA rasher of bacon would make an excellent expansion symbol.
Deletehaha yes you can never go wrong with bacon! that was supposed to say 'these are definitely basic lands from an ancient and mysterious plane, where the shadows of past events still linger on the land itself. The inhabitants have all but shut themselves away from the world, afraid of the powers that might beckon them to venture into the deep lands, afraid that they might re-awaken the ancient powers that were culled centuries ago..."

Extraplanar terrors from the blind eternities have ravaged the very heart of Ravnica, and though the New Guildpact managed to fight them off, there is something very wrong. A tumor of annihilating magic seeps from the core of the plane. There will be no rebuilding. There is no hope of a savior. Your only chance is to ESCAPE FROM RAVNICA."
