We notably don't get any green reprinted masterpieces. Window look is indeed sweet, but yea, readability.įull list. Card choices are pretty solid, just wish the theme was more obvious. That said I do think the window effect is cool, the color highlights look sweet, as does the Bolas horns on the side and around the foil tag thing. Another thing I saw people bring up is just in general the stuff on the card does blend into the background, happening even with the mana costs, set symbol, and even a little with the rules text. The art is also tiny, likely made to seem more so by how the frame frames it (it feels like I'm looking into a window), I'm also not big on the power/toughness. When I first saw it I took issue with the names and type lines as being a mess and even when I figured out how it functions (they are centered) it still has readability issues. I've come to appreciate that they were trying to do some cool things, and it really shows, but it still misses the mark for me. After seeing more and getting more accustomed to it I still don't like it, but I don't think I'd say I hate it. The only problem I have is that they're a bit hard to read, and I can get past that now that I'm familiar with the arts.ĮDIT: 3 more that I neglected to hear about.Īt first I REALLY didn't like the frame. Personally, I love the border design, but many people have been comparing them to Pokemon and/or Yugioh cards. Bit odd but there's little to complain about in terms of card choice.

'Invocations' here seems to simply mean 'very powerful and/or well-known spells,' and not instant or sorcery as was suspected. Since they're hard to read, I've put them in labeled spoilers for your convenience. We'll be getting most of the rest tomorrow, barring what will likely be the 5 which are a cycle appearing in Amonkhet. You all are quite late with these, I'm disappointed.
