I saw these photos (http://imgur.com/a/AzCDl/new_cards) linked on Reddit, and the bottom one looks like a new art Swords to Plowshares (I can't read German, but it certainly looks like it). It's coming out in the Elspeth vs. Tezzeret Duel Decks.

So what do people think? If there's a thread for this already I didn't find one with the search.

I think those are Razor Barrier and Crusade. But I think the Elspeth vs Tezz is the Ice Age art!

The second picture yankeedave. And I like my farmer the way he is. So I will not be getting the new art.

It does appear to be confirmed. The art is absolutely gorgeous, and while I won't be preordering any Duel Decks, I'm gonna have to get a playset.

I think the new art looks fine, but I honestly prefer my old BB Ice Age StP. Maybe it's just that I've been playing with them for so long.

I think the art is pretty badass. It looks like it should be a black spell.

Hydroblast really should of had Neytiri on it.

Yeah, that is a German STP. I have an Ice Age one with the same name. Also the art is hella cool.

It's a cool art, however I'll keep using my Judge foils, which are way cooler to play with.

In other news, I just managed to pre-order 2 japanese Jace vs Chandra sets at the normal price. Those things will only be limited to 1 each store in the Netherlands, and almost every store will use it as a price for a tournament.

God I love a manga themed set. Now let's hop they'll give us some nice manga style Daze of Counterspell in it, that would totally rock!

As far as I can tell, the only cards that got the new art were Jace and Chandra themselves: http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/481

I'm not too big on that Swords Art. I think I'll stick with Beta or the foil ones.

I have to say, I love the new art.

I tend not to worry about condition/artwork, even if I do, because I go for the card that remains playable, but is in the worst condition(cheaper that way...)

StP new art is amazing.I mean, Terese did em. What else would you expect?

Manga Jace and Manga Chandra are awful. They seem digimon.

Honestly Im super happy to see it back, but a little underwhelmed by the art. I still prefer my ice age ones beat though they may be.

Ice Age art > this art > the original

If there would be foils of the Ice Age version with the old card frame, I'd pay big money for a playset of those.

As the reporters were gone to post the pictures they took online the feature match ot those two decks continued and Mishra's Factory entered the game. That's confirmed. Looking forward to the factory art!

Well, guess I'll just buy me some foil Elspeths and be done with that set. Unless the Mishra's are somehow sexier than antiquities.

I kinda like the art, and I did pre-order TvsE, but I think I'll stick to my Ice Age ones... Classic, and I like the flavour text.
