Behold! The fearsome Bloodhusk Ritualist! If you're wondering how to perform a bloodhusk ritual in the privacy of your own home ... we can't really help you. But we can give you some insight. See the smoke roiling off that goblet? It's forming a face, which is the essence of the target's mind. Bloodhusk Ritualist | Art by DaarkenDiscuss on the message boardsArcana Archive (more)

Symbol of Phyrexia

In the distant past (2004 and 2005, anyway), we showed the Symbol of Yawgmoth and where it appeared on Order of Yawgmoth, the Seventh EditionYawgmoth's Edict, and the Ninth EditionYawgmoth's Demon. Senior creative designer Brady Dommermuth points out that the symbol more precisely represents Phyrexia itself. Yawgmoth’s own symbol is the so-called Mask of Pain, which is the Apocalypse set’s expansion symbol and appears on a different subset of Phyrexian cards. And since... (more)

As you are presumably aware, the planeswalker Chandra, who first appeared in Lorwyn as Chandra Nalaar, has reappeared in Zendikar as the angrier, more in-your-face Chandra Ablaze. So what we're going to do today is give you a chance to compare the two portraits of Chandra. Ready? Go! (more)

You Decided - Sorin Art

Thursday, August 20, 2009 11:15:27 AM GMT Monday, August 17, 2009 12:18:52 PM GMT
On August 10, every article on Daily MTG had a YOU DECIDE! poll on the bottom, asking readers to choose between several different elements of a card. Those elements were: Name, Mana Cost, Art, Type Line, Rarity, Line 1, Line 2, Line 3, Artist Credit, and "Power/Toughness or Loyalty". Now that our readers have decided, we're going to reveal a Zendikar card, bit by bit, in the order given by the poll. Two of the results were very close, but they'll still be revealed separately.

Zendikar Plains

Thursday, August 13, 2009 11:57:47 AM GMT Monday, August 10, 2009 12:01:35 PM GMT
Let's talk for a moment about basic lands. It will surely come as no surprise that Zendikar (the next large expansion set, which has prereleases on September 26-27 and previews here on magicthegathering.com starting on September 7) has them. If, for example, you were to open a Zendikar Intro Pack, you might well find these two Plains cards. Ah! But what if you get your lands from a Zendikar booster pack or the fat pack? Well, then you'll get lands that look more like th... (more)

Vektor480, in response to a previous sketch arcana, had this to say: One edition of "Sketches" I would like to see is of Time Warp.

M10 Sketch Options

featured 398 days, 8 hours, 9 minutes ago posted by SummonerSummoner 401 days, 7 hours, 51 minutes ago
Saturday, August 01, 2009 4:33:24 PM GMT Wednesday, July 29, 2009 4:51:26 PM GMT
Here at Magic Arcana, we often show you sketches of card art before they're finalized—a fascinating glimpse into the Magic art process. But much like card text, it's deceptive to think of a card's art going through an unbroken, inevitable progression from sketch to paint to card. At any number of steps, art concept writers, art directors, and the artists themselves made choices that could easily have gone some other way. Perhaps the clearest illustration (ha!) of this...

Here's the art description for Nature's Spiral. Action: This is a symbolic representation of rebirth: Amid a patch of ferns, we see an extreme closeup of a trio of fern "fiddleheads," the curled-up fronds of a young fern. But these fiddleheads have taken on curled-up creature shapes -- a snake, a nautilus, and a human embryo. Focus: the fiddleheads Mood: Symbolic of renewed life of all kinds Now, before we look at the art, are you familiar with the Golden Sp... (more)

Melissa worked on a number of cards printed from Alpha through 9th Edition. The original art for Lord of Atlantis, Nightmare, and Shivan Dragon are probably the most famous although there are ...

Many years ago, I had a conversation with my friend Chris in which each of us described exactly what it looked like when we summoned something in a game of Magic. After all, when you're exerting your will to pull something to yourself across an unfathomable distance, there must be some pretty powerful magic at work—and if movies have taught me anything about magic, it's that serious spells are always acc...
