Thread: Wizards, where are all the cute magic cards?

    Wizards, where are all the cute magic cards?

    My wife will only play magic if the cards have cute art on them. She wanted me to build her a deck filled with cute animals.

    Over 100,000 cards and Ive found a grand total of two that have cute art.

    Bear Cub from Portal
    And
    Might of Oaks from Urzas.

    Come on Wizards, you're missing out on a major demographic here!

    Update 1:

    Probably she saw Chatter of the Squirrel

    She had enough of Magic since then :-/

    We definitively need more cuteness, if want more women to play the game.
    See Wizards. I am not alone here.

    Update 2:

    Any reason that it couldn't have cost 1G, or instead been a 2/1 uncommon that makes a 3/3 wolf mom token? Art this cute deserves to see play. And 0/1 doesn't exactly sound Ferocious. A 0/1 is basically only useful as a chump blocker. And you guys are sick monsters if you think that's all that wolf cubs are useful for!

    Couldn't you guys have used this art for Nightpack Ambusher so that it would have wound up on a competitive card atleast?

    So my wife is still stuck with a deck that has cute art like she wanted, but that is utter trash and basically incapable of winning games against even pauper decks.

    There's the Hyalopterous Lemure which has a story about lemur vs lemure.

    My wife thinks goblins are cute, especially with their flavor text.

    Its a shame we dont have more cute cards though, enough to make a cute squirell deck or something

    Cub needs to be a creature type. So we can build a deck consisting entirely of deck bear cubs, tiger cubs, panda cubs etc

    Heck, even the original Nicol Bolas is a little bit Barney-like. There's definitely plenty of cuteness fodder out there. Wish I had suggestions, but I'm a husk bleeding nothing but liquor and misgivings.

    In fact you are correct... I mean about the other version of the Dragon Whelp! Well maybe you are also right about bleeding liquor too ahah.

    Early one morning while making the round,
    I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down;
    I went right home and I went to bed,
    I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head.

    You should look at lorwyn. And specifically, Kithkins / changelings.

    You could always make a Kobolds deck! That way she doesn't have to worry about things like tapping mana or... a chance at winning.

    From recent sets I can remember Thriving Grubs and Ruin Rat as noticeably cute

    Absolutely.

    Many of the cards posted here are only cute in an ugly, hideous sort of way.

    We need a Panda tribal deck stat Wizards. That would be supremely popular, I assure you.

    Or atleast draw squirrels more like on Urzas Might of Oaks and less like on chatter of the squirrels or hermit druid. What a wasted opportunity that was.
