As far as alternate art promos go, this has got to be one of the best ones I've ever seen. Your thoughts?
Edit: This thing almost makes me want to pay $15 to draft at my local FNM. Almost.

Hm. Would this thing sell better than Time Spiral Tormod's Crypt Japanese Foils? It sure looks better, for certain, though.

Art looks great, but the huge and fugly "Friday Night Magic" stamp that they insist to print on every FNM promo nowadays ruins the overall impression. A damn shame.

Probably not, being a promo card, it'll be somewhat easy to get ahold of (for a while at least). The artwork is so much better than the original artwork.

The art-work is pretty meh here. Honestly, I love the darkness and color saturation in the timeshifted Crypt in TSP. That thing is really bad ass.

Truth, I'll take foil TSP crypts over this any day. I like the old art, maybe I'm alone here, idk.

It seems like Wizards pumps out more quality promos this year. According to MTGSalvation, March's FNM is going to be Eternal Witness!

I like the promo artwork, but do not like foils (in general). Bleh.

I like it, but I really which they actually gave out cards that are playable in T2. At least this is legal.

I actually prefer The Dark Tormod's Crypt over all others. Truly hot.

For this art? I'd put up with the FNM stamp.

The flavor text is cooler than the art.

The art is awesome. FNM cards suck though, harder than most foils.

Wow...now instead of just losing to Tormod's Crypt, Ill occaisionally get to lose to an FNM-stamped new-bordered one...its enuff to make me sick :frown:

Yeah, the art here is pretty nice, and it's FNM, but the foil timeshifted ones are waaaay prettier. Brown > Gray when it comes to foils.

I'll never understand what you people see in these promo arts. This is the most boring art I've ever seen. It might as well be the Dome of the Fucking Rock for chrissakes.

I don't think this needed it's own thread. I dunno if I like the art as much as the original, but it's nice to see PLAYED cards being made into FNM foils again. There were a few months there (the months I won of course) that seemed iffy.

I agree, the regular art is better but that will do for an FNM foil...

If only they would get rid of that gay FNM stamp.

It looks like Mickey Rourke in drag.

Ugo. Is it really that hard to get good art for these things?

I agree. They need to ditch that "FNM" lettering on the bottom. It makes you stare at that more, and I want to look at the art, dammit.
