YES, this was a no brainer, since people have been asking for it for ages.

However, I think this is just MARGINALLY better than the original...

AND with better art than the original? (And by Steve Argyle nonetheless. His art is always welcome.)

I just screamed like a little girl.

Long overdue, but certainly welcome. Maybe this will drop the price of BBE just a tad...

Thank goodness spring break is coming up and the first couple weeks of school are slow so I can play a couple FNMs. This is an amazing promo and steve argyle is a tiny glowing diety among illustrators. <3

FINALLY Bloodbraid Elf has good art. YES! I've never wanted to play it (for mainly that reason), but I might try it now that the art's better (no kidding). GREAT trade fodder, at the least.

Well, at least no one can argue that the FNM card for April is unplayable jank or casual fodder. Always awesome when you can get promo copies of the best card in Standard at your FNM.

And yes, the art is way better on this version!

DO! WANT!

Much better than the original art in my honest opinion. Now if you excuse me I must change my shorts.

Way better than the original. It needed this so much!

Is that a Dragon Whelp skull I see?

Finally, I like how it only takes Wizards a year to put an instant staple as FNM.
