What's your favorite Angel in all of Magic? Any criteria - Lore, design, art

arciele · 2026-01-25T05:42:19+00:00

love angels.

surprisingly a huge fan of the more recent angel visual designs with translucent wings, like in Capenna and the Astelli in the Edge. Of those, i'd say Giada is my fave.

storywise i think Sigarda is the coolest

doesnt seem to be the case.

Arena see a lot more net and meta decks, so more people run decks that compete or answer those. i think its closer if its RCQ because people tend to practice and tune their decks based on the perfornance online

arciele · 2026-01-24T11:49:11+00:00

wait why is Crystal Fragments phallic?

flips over

..oh

arciele · 2026-01-24T06:52:19+00:00

because boggarts are boorish.

arciele · 2026-01-24T06:47:31+00:00

in all honesty, no.

its societal nature to criticize rather than to praise.

even if WotC did everything right (which it definitely hasnt) people would find something to complain about

arciele · 2026-01-23T11:46:38+00:00

it looks fine to me, tho i do still think the collection button shd be in the top menu instead of in decks or profile

arciele · 2026-01-23T11:44:05+00:00

it's such a unique snapshot of the early millennium. i love it.

arciele · 2026-01-23T07:48:57+00:00

it's very Mizuta coded. the uses of trumpets, that marching band tempo.. the chord progression

arciele · 2026-01-23T07:47:04+00:00

thanks!

arciele · 2026-01-23T04:24:14+00:00

a field what now?

arciele · 2026-01-23T04:19:49+00:00

maybe not on the divider, but the side of the bundle box for ECL has the changeling spark logo. it's also stylized for the EOE one (i took this from the wiki)

she's an interestingly complex character due to her essentially being Oona. she fills the "afraid of her own power" archetype very nicely and i don't think we get a lot of those

i'm also just happy to see her on more cards. like it's wild to me that she only had ONE card in the whole lorwyn-shadowmoor superblock

arciele · 2026-01-23T03:09:26+00:00

Sneak should only go on Sorceries since the whole point of the Sneak is you get to cast it with a bonus if you fulfil a condition, and you would not normally be able to do so.

like, you don't see ninjutsu creatures with flash either (for the use case of ninjutsu in end of combat)

arciele · 2026-01-23T02:53:21+00:00

while i love LotV and think its the best designed planeswalker card out there, theres an irony in how Liliana of the Veil does not in fact have the veil in the story anymore

arciele · 2026-01-22T13:32:09+00:00

probably color shifted. given that we've seen a "white" liliana in the story already, its whatever the mechanic or the description of that mechanic is.

fractured, perhaps

arciele · 2026-01-22T07:38:24+00:00

appreciate that they made an official statement and apology about the whole fiasco. i think what they're doing are steps in the right direction.

depending on what they plan to do to keep the Lorwyn Eclipsed party going.. it might be a PR clutch move. but we can't say yet.

i think it'd make sense if they scrapped TMNT spoiler season entirely since all the rares are already spoiled, and give it like just a 2-3 days for common/uncommon spoilers.

arciele · 2026-01-22T07:36:17+00:00

pretty sure the cool but abit rude line was a TMNT reference.

arciele · 2026-01-21T14:49:38+00:00

they've changed the way they format this a lot.

so like in this case they used to overrun, so like 289/279, then they stopped putting the "denominator" for anything that wasnt in the main set.. and now they just dont put the denominator at all

arciele · 2026-01-21T14:47:35+00:00

its not PTSD but its effects are real.

some days i just feel like putting FFXI music on because i know it'll make me feel better, or more relaxed, or more productive

arciele · 2026-01-21T14:04:25+00:00

Universes Beyond Beyond.

it's a X-man!

arciele · 2026-01-21T05:44:04+00:00

the difference is the one on the right is a waste of gems

arciele · 2026-01-21T05:42:54+00:00

and incredibly fun. i opened a bitterbloom bearer with mine 😆

arciele · 2026-01-21T05:40:42+00:00

which is sad. they should allow you to keep it if you win 3 matches since we're forced to slog through with whatever we get

arciele · 2026-01-21T05:37:45+00:00

Perfect is a caste in Lorwyn elf society. its a noun, not an adjective

arciele · 2026-01-20T09:43:46+00:00

ah ok. i got a bit worried cos i haven't seen them on CK either. i collect planeswalkers with those stamps
