Premier Alexander Romanov Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Anyone else noticing a spiral motif in the art?Because I am...and after Eldritch Moon, I'm getting a little unsettled...Interestingly, out of all of the card art I saw, I didn't see anything that popped out as Black. Plenty of the other colors, but nothing obviously representing Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Yea, that was one of the things I noticed. The world is obviously very UR, W works very well, and they showed off a lot of the G. Nothing on black outside of maybe this one land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delibirb Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Hmm... "The Enlighted Keepers of the Consulate have put out a call for Kaladesh's greatest minds to present their findings in refinement methods, extraction techniques, and especially the reality-bending concept of alternate means of matter transportation. We expect the results to be ground-breaking!" Could it be possible that the consulate, with or without Dovin Baan's advisement, is trying to develop methods of either creating artificial planeswalkers or planar portals...? Perhaps this is the conflict in Kaladesh, and this apparent resistance is in fact led by at least one planeswalker, Saheeli, trying to prevent it. Perhaps she knows they intend to conquer other worlds? Near-blind speculation, but "reality warping" and "matter transportation" are concepts which previously could only really be used to describe planeswalking.

Hell, even teleportation isn't unheard of, with Venser mastering the art well before his spark ignited (though one could easily argue that his latent spark had something to do with his brilliance) and Jhoira performing feats well beyond even him, with no spark to speak of.

Delibirb Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 Her face shows so much maturity that isn't present in her earlier artworks. It's cool to see the characters' developments through both story and art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
