Depending on definitions you would also need to include cards with colorless mana costs like warping wail.

You guys ever notice that all the big dumbasses in that meme Golgari Fight Rigging deck face the same way:

No! Those are antlers! You can't make them into tusks, regardless of the artist's intent

It doesn't matter what they are the Gargaroth is still facing left!

I've always read that art as antlers, meaning the big Gargaroth is looking at his own mana cost in the upper right.

Tusks also can make sense, but whatever it is there's two sets, which complicates a lot of biology, I think.

There's a non-tusked, non-antlered lesser Gargaroth in the frame which is obviously facing back to the left. Birds looking back to the right. I guess you could say both Gargaroths are looking back to the left, reacting to the same thing, and the birds are facing the opposite direction for compositional balance.

I'm gonna need you stoners to trace where you think the Gargaroth's eyes and mouth are because I cannot picture what you're saying at all.

If you cheat and look at the hi-rez art I'm clearly right:



I also just noticed the little 3/3 Gargaroth underneath it.

Ooooh, I see. Crazy how two people can look at the same picture and see two different things. There's a message in here somewhere.

That would be nice (big ups to leaf eaters), but in my experience the only thing a Gargaroth eats is a removal spell in my opponents first Main after I resolve it.

I like that the fandom wiki has an entire section on this

https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Chandra_Nalaar#On_Chandra.27s_love_life

quote:

On Chandra's love life

Chandra was originally planned by the Creative team to be a pansexual "hot mess" and eventually be in a relationship with Nissa Revane.[3][4] However, she was described as a heterosexual who likes "big-muscled manly men" in War of the Spark: Forsaken.[5] Wizards of the Coast later released a statement on their website acknowledging the controversy and reception with the novel, and that Chandra's identity will be explored more in future stories.[6][7] Greg Weisman also released an apology, stating that the mutual creative/editorial process with WotC and Del Rey was to blame for the final characterization of Chandra in the book.[8]

In the storyline of Midnight Hunt, Chandra seems to be smitten by the looks of the cathar Adeline.[9] Chandra appeared on a Pride float in Secret Lair: Pride Across the Multiverse and was reconfirmed as pansexual in the drop's corresponding Digital Zine.[10]

I really couldn't care less about the characters or their orientations. What really matters is our arousal to the cards, and how that makes us feel.

Where can one find a printer friendly full set spoiler. Trying to get at least 4 across each row. Mtg-print.com only puts 9 per page. I don't have access to a printer, but was on the phone with someone who does. They said scryfall was printing out huge (2 cards per row) even after hitting ' Ctrl + - ' to zoom out.
