Bleh, I'll just settle for the OG versions for these cards, thanks.

The "Crazy One", playing casual magic and occasionally dipping his toes into regular play since 1994.
Currently focusing on Pre-Modern (Mono-Black Discard Control) and Modern (Azorious Control, Temur Rhinos).
Find me at the Wizard's Tower in Ottawa every second Saturday afternoons.
Playing since 1994: Currently MAGS (HomeBrew),Standard & Pauper (Pioneer and Modern are degenerate trash formats)
STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.

Martin Luther King Jr.: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
What's next? A reimagining of modern cards by Kaja and Phil Foglio? This is the ugliest Secret Lair drop so far...oh well, I've never bought any of them and these definitely won't change my mind.:thumbsdown:
oh hooray, another product! again, going with a hard nope. we've hit a critical mass of products. two secret lairs announced in the same day is just absurd.
the art here... i like the tattoo style aesthetic, i just don't like any of the arts here except inkmoth.
the choices also seem kind of all over the place. they're good, highly played cards but there's no theme here. its just crank out a product with some alternate art. given that... what exactly is the point other than to try to pump every single dollar out of us?
edit: oh i get it, they all have to do with tattoo'ing, needle, pierce, blood, ink, artist... that's ******* weak at best.

I would definitely buy that Bird Maiden is still my favorite magic card in terms of art.

By this point i think people would appreciate if they just reprinted the card without any art, i mean, those look worse than customs. But i guess there will be ppl who want those "tatto" art, soo thats ok.

I also absolutely love bird maiden (and shahrazad ). Back in the day foglio art, drew tucker art was loved and hated for the break that they made with traditional fantasy art. But regardless of whether you loved or hated it, you could at least recognize talent. These are just bad. Like my 6 year old could draw these and I wouldn't put them on my refrigerator.

I have a feeling these will mostly appeal to tattoo aficionados, and not so much your average Magic player. That said, I really dig the Inkmoth Nexus art.

I certainly do like the theme of the art and I do enjoy Spell Pierce and Inkmoth Nexus, but this is yet again too many products in a year of too many products, especially for Secret Lair, and it's yet another pass. I honestly might have bought some Secret Lairs in the past if the price was $10 less for some of these.
These arts also seem like something you'd find a booster and not paying $30+ for a small bundle.
I haven't even been able to get a hold of Ikoria in my local Wal-Mart yet and here Wizard's is announcing five different products in a week.
If someone put these garbage tattoos on me I would stab them in the face. That spell pierce looks like a 6 year old drew it.a bunch of you knuckleheads deface your cards with autographs of artists like this garbage artist.

I actually really want that. In fact, I've wanted it since Secret Lairs were first revealed. And if I get it, you are free to save your money. They wouldn't be for you.
Please, mill me. Mill my important cards. Mill my lands. Mill it all. Because I will still deal 20 damage before you can mill 45 cards most every time.
Wow - after 27 years, they finally did it - I can no longer say Word of Command has the worst art in Magic.
I play three of the five cards in this Secret Lair, some in up to a dozen decks. And I would never want to see these hideous versions on my side of the table or across the table.
I mean, of the Secret Lair drops announced today, this is by far the worst, and that's saying something considering how bad the planeswalkers are.

Then you can invest in random sleeves to get the art you want and play whatever the cheapest card is.
