Eh one of my non-magic playing friends got himself tattooed with the eponymous angel from the card Empyrial Archangel.
That's a really good piece though, and doesn't look super Magic art / generic arms out yelling pose.

Admittedly, I bought that set of prints so I might be biased.

So, having never played magic before. Do I just rock up to my flgs and buy something to learn the game?

The MTG 2015 game doesn't like my nexus 6.

He had no idea what it was, he's just a religious type who liked having a strong guardian angel on his arm.

That card was a sweet silver bullet in reanimator back in the days of 2011 along with cool finishers Iona, Inkwell Leviathan, and Sphinx of the Steel Wind :rip:

You don't even need to buy to learn the game, they usually have 'sample packs' or something (not sure of the name), they're small decks, they don't even need shuffling, and an employee can use them to teach you the game (and you keep the deck :v: )

yeah thats one way to do it, better way is to post where you are located so that goons can tell you what store to go to/help you out.

But yeah, any good Magic store should have someone their willing/happy to teach you how to play, they probably have free starter decks to help get you started addicted.

Don't be salty over your Commune with Lava bet.

Atarka's Command? Yeah, about 3 dollars. But I was planning on using those.

I'm over that really bad speculation. Mostly. Commune With Lava's still probably my favorite bad rare in the set despite me never using it, though.

The foil is a nice EDH Toy for Norin, though.

Other lovely specs by me: Skaab Obliterator that one time a modern deck ran a couple at a GP, Spirit of the Labyrinth when it looked like the new toy for Hatebears, Flame-Wreathed Phoenix that one time a GR aggro list was running a playset about 3 months back, and Herald of Torment for "when RTR rotates out, Mono Black Devotion will TOTALLY start using these."

I bought like 12 Prognostic Sphinx for a quarter each because it seemed like a shoe-in for post-rotation play. Then they gotta go and print a buncha dragons.
