Relevant standard card with better art. Not the best, but better than a few we've gotten

aunshi189 · 12-20-2012, 12:43 PM

The art is nice, but too similar to the current art if you ask me.

JiffyWartbustle · 12-20-2012, 12:51 PM

Could have been a much worse card so no complaint there. Not really fond of this art. Maybe it will "pop" on a foil but it really doesn't grab me.

Safeguard · 12-20-2012, 12:54 PM

any translation on the flavor text?

that matters to me

CDDRodrigo · 12-20-2012, 12:55 PM

Very awesome art, but everyone and their mother already have a playset or two of this card...

Here are my crazy Brazilian translation skills at work:
"Sometimes you die a glorious death with your sword held high. Sometimes you're just target practice."

germanturkey · 12-20-2012, 12:58 PM

could be worse. if i remember correctly, the next few months are already known, so i guess no modern playables? and by playables, i mean fringe stuff.

pablocrenshaw · 12-20-2012, 01:02 PM

Say what, where's my serum vision FNM? Hang on a minute, was Wikipedia wrong about this? We aren't getting a Snapcaster Mage or Force of Will FNM card?

I actually l,e the artwork on this, I would like to have seen a galvanic blast one though.

gereffi · 12-20-2012, 01:10 PM

It's nice. I'm assuming that this card will be in Standard for a couple more years, so it's nice to see a promo of it I guess.

To be fair, this is true for all FNM promos. They always print commons and uncommons.

jonnybgood23 · 12-20-2012, 01:23 PM

Consider me in the minority. I was actually hoping for Modern cards, especially the "rumored" Sleight of Hand. You know, especially since January will be the first month that Modern hits FNM. A slightly wasted opportunity imho. Still... could be worse!

So it's the exact same as the M13 edition.

This is a great promo is you play FNM in Standard, but useless everywhere Lightning Bolt is legal.

Zer0 · 12-20-2012, 01:46 PM

The art is only slightly better than normal version.
Still, I'll probably end of getting it for my Pauper Cube. Better than me not using it at all.

**mabberman** · 12-20-2012, 01:49 PM

That's a pretty good promo of for January.

* applauds wizards*

Not bad, but not really one I'll work hard to get.
