Quote from: Mark Rosewater
There are six choices, but I've condensed it down to three. First, I've combined instant and sorcery as both card types are identical from a creative standpoint. Plus, mechanically it's best to leave us the ability to modify spell speed as a tool to later fine tune the card. Second, I've eliminated artifacts, as the art does not support being an artifact. And third, I've eliminated land for the same reason. This leaves us with three options:

1. Creature

2. Enchantment

3. Instant or Sorcery


I went for #3...surprise?

Personally I think this card is an Enchantment, and that's what I voted for.  True, the woman is obviously in the process of casting something, but it looks more like she's creating some sort of aura rather than generating a quick effect.

I think it should be called 'Stink Finger' or 'Smell my Finger'

I voted for this too, I just felt that it was on the same art standard as many other cards in magic.  Some of those other pieces of art, despite being good seemed rather cartoony.

I'm thinking Sorcery.

I find this a boring, utterly mainstream art choice.

I liked #1, it was very different and interesting.

I guess art is like that though Smile

Yeah, I totally voted for #1, the Merfolk Fetus.

This'll be OK to look at, though.
I like how compelling her eyes are.

Personally, what I find most compelling is the fact that there is nothing compelling at all about this piece. What a waste.
