I love basic lands, more specifically the set of 6 Ice-Age/Coldsnap Theme deck lands that share art. But for any card in the game, my vote goes to magus of the coffers.

I wholeheartedly agree. All my favorite art is on older cards.Quote:

The dark had some very beautiful art. Modern cards are all horrible for me, they are just some CG drawing strictly depicting the art. Give me back my favorite artist and my sketchy picture : <
Also: all four Hymns of Tourach sitting next to each other.
The Wizard one sucks, don't get me wrong, but I think it's interesting how my appeciation for different Hymns has changed as I've gotten older: when I was younger, I liked the Wolf; now I like the Table one the most as it tells an oddly creepy story without going overboard. I didn't get the Circle Chant one (despite having playsets of all the others) until rather recently, so I have a special appreciation for that, too.
Most of the new artwork is so incredibly awesome.
Just look at how insanely basic land art has increased in quality

Both the best and worst Magic illustration at the same time.

I've never understood this art. What's going on? Why was it illustrated this way? It has a lot of fans, so I'm curious to see what I'm missing here. It's certainly interesting, I just don't get it.Quote:
