Awesome card, just wish it was standard legal. But maybe they are setting up a promo run for the new Modern FNMs. Which Im totally behind also.

I still don't get why they bother making non-Standard FNM promos, but this is a fine one to print if they're going to print promos for Modern.

Pretty nice promo card. Shame they couldn't have released it when it was still in Standard but it sees play in larger formats so no big deal.

Because standards not the only format. (Not even the best format IMO)

Lyracian · 11-20-2012, 04:30 PM

Well it is a card worth turning up for and at least it give Alternate art in the deck (which is something I like to have).

MUST HAVE!!! OMG MUST HAVE!!! This is PERFECT...setting up for the Modern FNMs in January with a card that is a staple in a common "budget" modern deck, which I happen to be playing for said FNM xD

NGW · 11-20-2012, 04:43 PM

I like the new art, but definitely prefer the old art.

I want an alt art Jin-Gitaxias :[

Icarus599 · 11-20-2012, 05:59 PM

I'm okay with this. Fun card.

Gangstah Mizzums · 11-20-2012, 06:02 PM

I LOOOOVE this art. Very dark. I am so getting a set.

Fissure · 11-20-2012, 06:04 PM

Makes it easier to foil out my Modern Delver deck and now I won't have to buy it in the future.

As was mentioned, Standard is not the only format in Magic. Furthermore, this is the reason they're printing this promo now.

I can here everyone's collective "Ahhhhhh..."

AnotherMirran · 11-20-2012, 07:03 PM

I am thoroughly okay with this being a promo. An Alt-Art foil for Gitaxian Probe is never an issue in my book, and it is tournament legal as well. I am all for it!

ralleon · 11-20-2012, 07:19 PM

I dont get it. The artwork looks more like an equipment rather than a sorcery.

'Standard is not the only format'

And? Might aswell print standard legal cards, as all those other formats can use them to... plus standard! zomg!
