WOW! I wish I was a judge! However, the art is... well... ugly... I would have prefered the old Alpha art to this one. But oh well, still cool stuff our fearless judges are getting. Play on.
The art isn't horrible, and for some odd reason it reminds a lot of Legend of Zelda.
Probably resembles a gorgon or a mask or something.
Anyways, looks like a fat faced imp on an alter with it's guts dissolving into smoke. At least, to me anyways.

Started playing since Invasion, stopped at Scourge. Returned briefly during BoK's introduction of ninjas. Finally back into magic during Shadowmoor/Eventide.

Media is not making me steal. But in a way is like the story of the very hot girl with the short skirt teasing the old sick guy with a history of rape.
Interesting. The art is just there, but I too wonder what this might go for as well as what it could have gone for if it had different art. Me personally, I think the Urza's Saga art would have been amazing if the licensing for the original Alpha art was unavailable.
I don't have any hard numbers on this, but I'm targeted more often than a black guy driving a beat-up sedan with a broken tail-light and no license plate, and Cy's well aware of that.
Looks like... I'll be trying to secure one of these to alter. :3 Because I don't think anybody will miss the old art... I still can't tell what it is really. An owlman? -_-
The picture seems to be that of a fetish. No not that sort of fetish. Its the only thing the picture could be and make sense.
fetish...the other definition
1. An object that is believed to have magical or spiritual powers, especially such an object associated with animistic or shamanistic religious practices.

I would give my first born for an Alpha Dark Ritual's art reprinted in foil. That would be the most evil looking card ever!
Strange art. I wonder if this shoots the hope of having DR in DvD? I know Tutor is in, but why put out more promos of things going to be put into a new set aimed at collectors?
so this is a judge reward... hmm, considering the fact that Demonic Tutor was given out to judges not so long ago and now it will see print again in DvD, I hope Dark Ritual will get the same treatment as well, and it will get printed in DvD too.
Every artwork Dark Ritual had so far... with the exception of the Ice Age and Beatdown Box art were better... BY FAR.
And even the both artworks mentioned (IA and BD) had some kind of style... but this... fat pokemon style (or this) sacrifice outlet on a nearly invisible altar and a "pressed-into-picture-dark-effect".... woooo this is worse than everything the poor Manasource should have gotten....
I like foils and promos... but THIS is to ugly for my collection, sry....

Looks like 'something' on an alter, or something?
wonder how much this'll go for...

It sucks they made a promo out of a card with so many better versions, beta, 2 korean printings, etc.

That's what I was thinking lol. It's definitely something getting sacrificed though.
Nuts, beat to it.
