Nile (like the river) @nilejoan.com · 06/01/2026ah yes, magic's time honored tradition of going "hey we just received one of the best arts we've ever received, do we have any bulk commons that need artwork??" 5366677
schmandrew ➡️ SCGCon LA @schmandrewart.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I saw you say this to someone else in the replies, but I thought I’d add my two cents as a magic artist. Unless something is a reprint, I’ve never known the rarity of the card I’m illustrating. I thought Unstoppable Slasher was gonna be a Reassembling Skeleton type of common/uncommon. 1663
high king pʰɪɫnɒk @pilnok.dad · 07/01/2026omg is this a misprint? I'm p sure Evyn's name is pronounced G-O-A-T 000
Dr Judge - MAKE GK NOBLE! @mtgdad.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I'm indifferent about this problem. At the worst, more people at prerelease will get to see her art. Seems more win than loss. 000
HumbleDad - Art @humbledadgames.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Will definitely run this in my BG Glissa zombie/elf deck outta spite, cuz it's a beautiful mill stick 000
Triske 🔜 Boston, Very Slowly @triske.chicagostylecu.be · 07/01/2026One of the most important and self-nurturing parts of playing Magic is loving cards that are veritably absolute ass doo doo. 030
Moulder Balling @doolittleq.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Huge fan of when gorgeous artwork is on a card that's rarely going to see play because it means more people see it and it's not going to be $10 270
Mani @eyeznteef.com · 06/01/2026it's one of the coolest things about the game, honestly. the baseline quality of art is so goddamn high. i remember back in 2013 when a friend saw a loading screen for Duels of the Planeswalkers and was like "that's art from a CARD? are they all that BEAUTIFUL?" it was art for a basic land. basic! 030
Mrs. The Despoiler @mrsthedespoiler.bsky.social · 07/01/2026You're right and you should say it I would hang this IN MY HOUSE and it's on this CRAP COMMON 110
Princess Fielder (Evil) @notkimboslice.bsky.social · 06/01/2026When that happens I like to think its so that everyone who opens a few packs will have their own little version of the art. They may never see it again, or it'll turn up when they're sorting bulk in a couple years and have a pleasant surprise 000
“Pops” the Duc Rider 🫘 @adantejada.bsky.social · 06/01/2026On the other hand, if it’s useful you might see it multiple times in a game. 000
Durdle @durdle.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I was thinking about this, and frankly I've decided that great art on common cards might be one of the good things about the game. That said, I feel this in my soul. Sometimes the art is too epic for the card it gets. 050
BoogerMcPoopyPants @boogermcpoopypants.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I honestly think it’s one of the secret ingredients that makes a set memorable 000
Ponder @ponder719.bsky.social · 06/01/2026All other things being equal, IMO, the best place for the best art is on commons and uncommons that see play in constructed formats. They're generally cheaper, therefore more players can get them, and people will be bringing them to tables much more frequently than draft chaff. 010
Magic The Flavouring @mtflavouring.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Every magic card deserves the chance to be the prettiest 040
Cahzin @caheinecke.bsky.social · 07/01/2026It reminds me of this absolute banger masterpiece too ♥️ 000
Milly (recovering from Full Indie Summit) @foxesforsale.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Well they know it's a common when they send the art request out, but yeah sometimes you see something and go hmm is it too late to bump this up to playable because the artist just went HARD (Storm the Seedcore flashbacks) 270
Jason Rainville @jasonrainville.bsky.social · 06/01/2026God damn, Evyn blasted that into the next universe over 2350
MORTAL DOWNER @inspiritinspite.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I'm still hurting from Host of the Hereafter 000
Splinter Twink @splintertwink.bsky.social · 07/01/2026My gf was distraught to learn that not only was he not legendary but also completely unplayable 000
Amy the Amazonian @amytheamazonian.bsky.social · 07/01/2026This art was on the promotional pages too. It should be on the most banger card in the set 1160
Premium Steve @premiumsteve.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Like a mini siege rhino in one color but it also mills you Gonna be a limited role player for sure 030
Jacob @merfolksovereign.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I feel like this can be solid in limited at least. At least now when I pick the pretty art in the pack it is playable 020
Michael Grabusky @grabuskymichael.bsky.social · 07/01/2026Why are you complaining about great art on Siege Rhino with upside 010
Keithulhu @keithulhucards.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I am absolutely fitting this into my pauper cube though, so at least I'll get to look at it every once in a while 030
joanofork.bsky.social @joanofork.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I’m BEGGING for this having a playmat at least. 000
Gutcake @gutcake.bsky.social · 06/01/2026It's unreal how fantastic a piece this is, just for it to be on a common & some cheap sleeves 100
💜winry🖤 @w1nry.bsky.social · 06/01/2026strained old stickfingers noises making this fit in a deck 010
Fae-xplosive 🐭🧚♀️💥🏳️⚧️ @fae-xplosive.bsky.social · 07/01/2026Pauper players deserve to eat good too y'know ? Plus if it's on a common, it means more people have a chance to see and own these beautiful cards 😊 010
jodickejan.bsky.social @jodickejan.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Yeah such cool art and its just draft chaf 000
Scott Howland @showland.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Absolutley stunning art. Laughs in Pooh Hunny Wizard, art so good they released it as a playmat, deckbox and sleeves eventually. 040
Momma Rose MTG @momma-rose-mtg.bsky.social · 06/01/2026The art for this card is incredible, might find a home in some of my graveyard focused decks where I want to mill but yeah, shame that the art feels wasted on this one. Fingers crossed this art gets a playmat. 000
Mishotem, nontent creator & unfluencer @mishotem.com · 06/01/2026Yeah, they should tell people they give common card art assignments to, to tone down the effort so all the commons look like ass and all the very best art is on pushed mythics that hardly anyone will pull and will go for 30+ on the secondary market. 010
shylax @shylax.bsky.social · 07/01/2026On the other hand, we're going to see these cards a lot, it is really nice when they do have nice art. 000
VorthosMike @vorthosmike.bsky.social · 07/01/2026It’s actually good for the game. And always has been. You can’t just put chris Rahn on the top four cards of every set Even Donny Cola gets commons 2202
BratApfel @bratapfel.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Love that for us. How all cards get this amount of care and quality in art and art direction. Gives a "every card can be someones favorite" character to the game. 000
scratchcardcomics.bsky.social @scratchcardcomics.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Commons make the best arts to hole-punch and use for tabletop role playing games 020
dusty cupboards @dustycupboards.bsky.social · 06/01/2026the reality is the inverse, but i 100% think it's a mistake for them not to reallocate the piece to a more splashy card. this could have been bloom tender. 390
Nile (like the river) @nilejoan.com · 06/01/2026okay i get it i get it you guys like when mid cards have banger arts 2400
Se7eN @se7endeadly.bsky.social · 06/01/2026It feels like someone messed up and swapped the art for Eulogist and Bloom Tender and no one caught it 030
Jirachibi! 🏳️⚧️ @jirachibi.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I feel if they made this a 1-2 mana 1/1 and just made it this sets version of Deathcap Marionette or whatever itd have been at least run in some places more :( 000
b101nf0matr @b101nf0matr.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Hey! Sometimes commons deserve a glow-up as a treat. 😁 1170
CJ 🍂 @dukegatsby.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Better playmat than card is an honored tradition in this house 000
Ron Foster @ronmfoster.bsky.social · 06/01/2026I believe the technical term for this is “Gallegos Syndrome”. 000
