One of them is Twiddling Time Vault for a free turn.  It was just obvious that that's how it worked.  We accepted umpteen errattas to fix it, but when Wizards decided that they don't do Power Level Erratta anymore, we can now twiddle Time Vault.  I mean, it just can't be unseen.

Also back in the day, Wizards had demons.  Dungeons and Dragons had demons.  They changed it to some name I can't recall (Horrors - Godder), but everyone knew they were demons.  TSR (publishers of AD&D at the time) tried to get some controversial stuff re-branded to placate certain religious groups.  Or that's what they told us.  I dunno if AD&D had demons now (it does - Godder), but Wizards did a similar thing back in '94ish.  

Unholy Strength.


I've seen tidbit after tidbit about this pentagram thing, and how Wizards was playing it safe by removing the pentagram "just in case".

But once you see it, it can't be unseen.

The pentagram was STUPIDLY drawn.  Imagine a CIRCLE (with a star in it).  Now look at the "CIRCLE" of Unholy Strenth's pentagram.

If you had to draw a "circle" in Geometry Class (or say, in a 4th grade math class homework problem : "Draw a circle.  Make it look circular") and you drew they above "circle", you would be a Fail.  Doug Shuler was a fail in this pic.  Actually, a lot of his pics of "people" were kinda bland, but I digress.

Can you unsee that awefully drawn pentagram now that you've seen it?

Why is Wizards/Hasbro/MTG.com covering this up?

Like Sex Monkey? It's real name is Uktabi Orangutan but I guess noone knows that name anymore.
Those two little monkeys having fun on the card cannot be unseen once you noticed them.  Smile

Am I the only one who thinks the picture looks like she is flashing her ass and rubbing a dildo? Maybe I'm just perverted idk but I never have and still don't think that about Gifts...

I suppose it's mostly the thought that this format is just one big Mistake; and not even a very sophisticated one at that.

I think the intended flavor of the card is, "How far are you willing to go with her?"

I'm the only other legal target, so I draw 6 cards, and he literally quits Magic.

I have never been able to successfully explain away the goblin in the background.


I'm not sure if you saw something especially disconcerting (as in Realms Uncharted)...but I think the Goblin is depicted as receiving first strike in the form of a spur on his right hand.

Thanks. I could never figure out that the red thing was supposed to be a spur.
