Bust Rodd posted:All magic cards are “contrived”... almost by definition yeah i know but i mean you can have legendary creatures without it being obvious they were conceived for edh, Questing Beast being a good example of that. edit: im saying Questing Beast feels natural to the set. its an example of a legendary card that doesnt feel contrived kalvanoo fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Feb 16, 2020 |

knox posted:I've been fascinated by the art of Magic since seeing it in comic book store windows as a kid and it still has the best art, though I never played many if any traditional/D&D/card type of games. Really feel like learning the game and teaching my brother/family, they play board games occasionally that I have zero interest in and I think Magic would be a lot of fun. Spent some time on the main website reading the basic rules and checking different cards as much as I can. I would like to have some physical decks to be able to play with, though I'd probably learn the game through free video game if that's a decent idea? the art stopped being good a while ago

No. 1 Apartheid Fan posted:old art is diverse, not high-quality; as a result of that diversity there are some really fun, funny, creative, or evocative pieces that seldom show up in the current game (especially outside of poo poo like lairs) and also some weird dogshit and vague racism this, basically. the quality of the art itself lately has been great but it's still generally too explicit. it's obviously an art direction problem, where the artists are being told what chandra should look like, as opposed to being allowed to decide what she should look like, or even what a planeswalker would be. i'd much rather the cards present diverse and even conflicting representation of the subject matter than having everything be homogeneous (and in my view, sterile). i liked their serum visions secret lair thing, so obviously they're aware of this on some level at least. my guess would be that their marketing chuds want to develop a coherent brand in order to sell toys and other poo poo. all that said, i'm probably in the minority here, since my favorite mtg artists were the foglios, margaret organ-kean, drew tucker and quinton hoover.

i remember reading somewhere that because of printing constraints the original art itself had to be relatively small (something like 5x7 iirc), which probabaly contributed a lot to the overall "readability" of it.Whaleporn posted:I miss a level of abstraction to the cards and worlds. The cohesive art/story design for all that it makes the art look more mature but leaves almost no room to muse about how two different cards co-exist in the same universe or just any wonder about the world of magic. i'd say almost the opposite re: maturity. the abstract (and sometimes almost disturbing) art felt a lot more mature to me than whatever the hell every planeswalker holding some kind of flaming orb is supposed to represent.
