Candy or dirt?

There's a run-off vote between Enchantment and Land in You Make The Card. Make an informed decision:

I'll level with you: this is what we in showbiz call "tongue-in-cheek." I actually LOVE lands. I still get a thrill every time I thumb to a non-basic in a pack. On the other hand, my absolute favorite cards are grievous enchantments like Grave Pact, Manabarbs, and Underworld Dreams. But I believe that for YMTC there will be more entertainment to be had on the enchantment route. Sorry, Land!

Experiments Two Through Five

Why stop at One?

They didn't specify which half.

I don't understand why the Simic think a frog lizard is a good idea. I mean:

Manufacture your own affronts to biology with this handy PDF.

Or maybe buy the original piece here.

Your Looter is now on Tumblr as well. I'm going to mirror the same content there so you can follow either. I may move the main URL over to Tumblr at some point. It depends on how many times Blogger changes their image resizing procedure in the next ten minutes. Anyway, Tumblr is here:

In addition, I've started ANOTHER Tumblr for cats + Magic cards pix. Yeah, you heard me. The multiverse is our litter box:

Send all your kitty MTG photos to me.

XOXO YOUR LOOTER

Irrefutable

A little love for a flavor extra hoping to jump to the big time: Blunk! When his parents gave him that name his future as a hammer-wielding goon was all but assured but now he's got eyes for something bigger. Really hoping Dragon's Maze steps up with Blunk the Blunked, Planeswalker.

Boros Boo-Boo Kisser

This guy. I kind of wish they'd gone all the way and made him creature type Spirit Ox.

Joy to the Worldspine

Season's greetings! Who doesn't love Ravnica at this time of year? The Izzet mix up their dangerous new holiday beverages. The air outside the Rakdos halls smells of roasting sage, thyme and victims. Golgari give each other gifts recycled from last year's gifts. Selesnyan chorale groups go door-to-door singing and handing out literature. The Azorius have their awkward office parties. And of course, the Schmazzgordios provided traditional wurm decoration.

As for the MTG community, my wish for the new year is for everyone to do their best to respect and include each other. It's been a rough patch (decade? forever?) for kindness in this community despite the fact that we have such excellent personnel. I don't expect MTGO to become a haven for enlightened discourse but let's all try harder to treat each other well, to think twice before shooting off that "clever" insult, and to understand the feelings of the players across from us. Let's make some progress.

XOXO
Looter
