Well, we certain do have an interesting choice for us to make on the cards picked.
===================
Mana Birds + Vine Trellis
VERSUS
Llanowar + Utopia Tree
===================
They split up the greatest little pair of buddies Magic's ever known! I'd much rather vote for Llanwar and Mana Birds to stay together, and ignore those other two wannabees. But, they split them.
I think the vote will be decided on the players' loyalty to either Birds or Elves. The Tree and Vines are just extra crap thrown in. DAMNED PORKBELLY VOTE!!!
So, ignoring porkbellies, which do you think is cooler? Llanowar Elves, or Mana Birds?
I'd vote Birds because I like them, and I know the value of foil birds would be high, but...
I like the long standing history of the little Llanwar Elves, too. They've been like buddies since I first started playing, always there in the main set for me to put in my green decks. Did the birds come to my aide? Nope! They're rare, so they stuck their noses up. The elves, those little helpful dudes, they're nice folk who deserve to stick around.
Damn...voting...hard choice....can barely...choose.....ELVES!
Who knows what type of Aladin's Rings flavor text we'll see. Then there's the artwork. Spined Wurm? *groan* Why don't they just let us pick the art for Eager Cadet...
They both suck in their own ways. And they both have their qualities. Parkison's has a look of Jurassic Park realism that's nice. The wurm actually looks like a monster you'd not want to wander upon. Then again, Critchlow's piece is all fantasy looking.
But fantasy looking isn't enough. That, and I'm tired ot seeing color-coordinated artwork. Does there have to be a dominance of color in a card's artwork just because the game has mana colors? Look at Critchlow's...all frikken green. Parkison's actually has a real nice contrast because of the complete lack of green.
Parkison it is!
How are y'all voting?
