Because no one started it here:

White - Non-DF



I mean wow, a bartender ghost. While everything goes to madness, it's nice to know some good and whimsical things remain. He's even got the blazer.

Blue - Non-DF



I love when MTG cards all abstract and metaphorical. Also love the palette.

Black - Non-DF



Adore the palette. It makes it look a bit like an 19th century painting. Very peaceful as well.

Red - Non-DF



It's a perfect blend of comical and deranged. Also looks like Jeremy Irons in the D&D movie.

Green - Non-DF



There's something inherently creepy about this card. In a set already full of mystery and mutation, the flavour text and grotesquery hint at something very dark, possibly unrelated to the main story. Also I love the eyes.

DF




And this, my friends, is how you take full advantage of non- horror.

Artifact



I just adore the concept. Also very cute.

Land



I love the feeling of desolation, and the golden tones are very pleasing to the eye.

The green cards with the Cult of the Moon thing.

There's a serious lack of survive the night here

EDIT: Alms of the vein is also missing

EDIT EDIT: Press for Answers, Grotesque mutation, and wicker witch are all great

Jokes on us - it was Nevinrryal the whole time.

I did consider Press for Ansers as my fav Blue, but it fell just slightly short of the awe of Trail of Evidence. It's still a hilarious artwork.

"Where were you on the night of the 23rd?"
"graaaaaaauugh gabora make sowrd"

Anyway my real favourite card flavourwise is



simply because Frankenbromance isn't something I realized I needed before today. Seriously if Ludevic is being any less than 100% sincere I'm gonna be upset.

Why frankenbromance when you can have frankenromance @_@

It's fitting that this is called Seagraff Scaab because THIS IS MY NEW SHIP

Agreed I'm so glad ludevic has found love he really deserves it and I think he'll be great for geralf

I have a feeling that Ludevic might be both sincere AND creepily evil about this, and be intending to put one or both of their brains in one or more Skaabs. If I recall, Ludevic is really old so he may be looking to stitch himself a new body for life extension reasons. And he may want to test the theory on his brilliant young collaborator first.

Generic:


(When do we get the other horsemen of the apocalypse?)



Love Me Some HPL:
(It's a nightgaunt!)
(Rats in the Walls is a favorite of mine... if you can get past the name of the cat)

Rats in the Walls is maybe the high point of actual horror, but also the high point of Lovecraft being really, REALLY racist.

God I have no idea how I'd begin to pick favorite cards. This set is so so good.

I may have just done so myself but I still have to agree with this. There's a lot to love. Innistrad is a flavor team jewel.

Does the woman in Survive the Night have a flintlock pistol? Are there guns on Innistrad?!?

That's a crossbow

No seriously, it has the... bow bit?

Oh, okay, now I see it! Thanks!

- Took an immediate liking to the art of this one, it's so adorbs (minus the flip version which is skurry as heL )



- I have a soft spot for nostalgia inducing cards, like Moment's Peace



- For licentious reasons...





- I love land cards that don't just plainly have lands.

The mange/lattice is a turn off tho.

Nice hipster beard Stoic Builder

Is Ludevic old? I thought we had too little info on him to determine that

Ludevic was essentially a non-entity in the original block, and only got a mention as having been imprisoned and then escaped inn the Garruk UR. No details on his physical appearence, though it'd wouldn't be surprising if he was going all Jeeper Creepers on Geralf.

Pity, I really wanted disgusting fleshly sex scene with postules and mutating stomachal lining.

"Ludevic. The most influential of Nephalia's merchants is Ludevic of Ulm, a wheezing and reclusive alchemist. Some say that Ludevic's consumption of potions and inhalation of toxic vapors has left him no choice but to abandon his experiments, leaving him to devote his sizeable intellect to the problem of making himself and his partners filthy rich. Others gossip that Ludevic still dabbles in the alchemical arts." - Planeswalker's Guide to Innistrad: Nephalia and the Undead

That was the passage I was thinking of. Just looked it up. OK, so he's not necessarily old as I'd thought but he does seem to be sick?
