Howdy y'all.

Remember how during Shadowmoor block, all of the FNM promos were high profile Lorwyn cards that depicted the creatures and spells as they would appear on Shadowmoor, created a sort of before and after look to them?

Well, I think we may very well see that again for the next year or so, check out next month's (August) FNM promo:



Don't that look a helluva alot brighter, and sunnier, and less "can't sleep, lycans'll eat me" than last time?



I hope I'm not overthinking this, because that would be so cool.

I read this as "Before and After Ponies" and got really, really excited. More evidence that I need more sleep? MAYBE

This is awesome though. I hope this is what they're doing, because if so it's a brilliantly subtle way of using art to convey a narrative.

Actually, can we get a link to the Lormoor promos? I actually didn't know about that art change.

Deal.

Though I actually really dislike the second Merrow Reejery art, but that is personal preference

How many planeswalkers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Spoiler: Show

Better question, what does Nicol Bolas want with the lightbulb?
