Default [Judge] New Judge Foils - Stifle and Windswept Heath

These will be the next Judge Foils to be given at Nationals.
Heath was known already I guess, but Stifle was not, IMO.

I guess I should add more content so its not spam, I'm just really excited. I wanted foil stifles for legacy so to have them somewhat more available makes me happy, but not my wallet.

Can't wait to see the new art for Stifle. Should be pretty hot.

Sweet cards !
Sooo bad I am not judging my nationals... Stifle is one of my favorite cards in Magic. Very elegant.

Hot and nice... I just can't wait for the scans !

So you're a judge?

I seriously don't know how people manage to get those (without hurting your aforementioned "wallet" to depressing amounts) if they're not judges.


I think Stifle is a very good choice. So many options, that I guess they went for an easy answer...

"What would be a cool card in Extended that people would want in a Judge version?... Oh, to hell. Stifle it is!"

I'm trying to decide if this post is trolling, bad spam, or if you're really just that... well, I'm not supposed to flame people around here, so I won't.



Anyway, this almost makes me wish I were judging. Maybe next time around...

Seeing Stifle is our Blue Judge Foil for the year, its another year without Judge Foil Force of Will.

Stifle good choice... Force of Will simply better.

Stifle is so populair in Legacy, good pick I'd say.

Is stifle confirmed to have new art? I can't say I'm looking forward to that if so because I love stifle's art, yet I also feel it goes well with the old frame and might look funny in a new frame. hmm...

Regardless it's a great choice for a foil if only a few months late. It would have been perfect when dreadstill madness had just peaked, but the deck is still amazing, and popular, and uses stifle. It's not alone in that regard either, stifle is pretty hot in legacy.

Edit: old art is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better. Scourge foils > this.

does this give any more traction to thoughts about Stifle being in M10?

Sure looks amazing with the new art, clean rules text and no flavor text. i didn't love water-people thing they did in Scourge.

heres hoping anyways!

hmmm the art seems very simple.....i dunno if its really that good....could have been better

also i thought with stifle being a judge promo that it may be reprinted in m10....but now with it being released at the same time as windswept heath which does not contain the new wording for "battlefield" we can pretty much rule out that stifle will be reprinted in m10.

anyone else agree?


Doublepost merged and warned.
