I'm super stoked, I think the arts capture an entirely different side to these two planeswalkers, for example I feel like Nielson makes Liliana look much softer, but that's mostly her art style, but garruk looks so much angrier rather than primal... its really cool, I'm hoping though that I won't have to buy more than one of these, I also like the symbol, even more than DvD

even if the decks are terrible, the box set is still an incredible deal. two planeswalkers for $20 is really good(I'm assuming MSRP will be the same as the JacevsChandra).

Stop complaining about how "bad" Standard is right now. If anything, its a lot better than what it used to be:
While I'm not a huge fan of these renditions of the two (I had to do a doubletake of Garruk to see just what angle he was twisted), they're not exactly terrible.
That said, I would really really really like to see Daarken do a rendition of Liliana, if not her next edition.
OMG thats sick! much better than the original Liliana art!
garruks legs look weird, but you cannot see them on the card anyway so whatever. Definitly buying one of these.
His torso is rediculously screwed up. I actually cringed upon looking at that art...at least I'll have a Garruk I don't mind trading! I'm sure the decks themselves will still be hawt.
I usually like Terese Nielsen works, but that Liliana is messed up. The original art was much, much better. :/
That Garruk is pretty bad as well, but the original also was. Oh well, maybe I've got spoiled by so many good art in the recent years.
I dunno, those two arts seem to have come straight out of a comics book. That's not good.

I rolled 5 D6's and got 3 fours. They must have changed the odds of getting a 4!
Maybe I'm messed up, but I think that Liliana picture is really hot.
You're not messed up. Liliana's awesome new look is right up there in the half-dozen or so cards illustrated by Nielsen that aren't Diet Guay.
I was going to get four of these anyway since I don't have any Garruks; the new Liliana is every bit as good as Garruk is awkwardly twisted. Maybe he heard someone call his name?
That being said, I'll be buying one. Even though I already have a garruk and liliana in the cube - I don't have foily ones. Plus if the last few sets are any indication, there'll be a few other solid cards in there too.
we all will be, in the end the art is no reason not to get an awesome deal that it is
and there will probably be some good commons/uncommons in there too like there was in the others, plus I wonder what the other rares will be

You can never have enough overruns...which I assume at least 1 will be in Garruk's

Although always playing a deck I think is fun, I'm also always trying to win the tournament.

I am not a fan of Garruk's art at all and I like Liliana's and so, I look forward to getting them nonetheless!

Terese Nielson is not one of my favorite artists after this...stick with drawing animals, Terese.
Also, Garruk is twisting sideways for some reason.
Akuma will wreck you.
nope. they do look rather cartoonish, but all in all, they're pretty decent renditions.

It looks like a leaf in Liliana's headdress (upside down).
Garruk looks so much like someone; I just can't place my finger on who. Wolverine? Sort of.

I agree they are decent, but certainly not the best we have seen.
His torso is rediculously screwed up. I actually cringed upon looking at that art...at least I'll have a Garruk I don't mind trading! I'm sure the decks themselves will still be hawt.
The Vess is good and hot, but I prefer old helmethead Garruk.
That Garruk is pretty bad as well, but the original also was. Oh well, maybe I've got spoiled by so many good art in the recent years.

New Jace was bad, new Chandra was...meh, new Garruk is terrible, new Liliana is bad

Seriously. He looks like a hobbitses.

She looks like a velvet Elvis.
Garruk is too terrible to even comment on.
Still, these decks are a great value and I expect to pick them. I hope I don't regret it.
