Today's random flavor discussion is Inspiration!

I find it interesting that they dropped the flavor text quotation attribution in 8th edition. I'm also quite happy with the RTR version pulling out the funny side of blue.

What do you think?

The RTR version always makes me think of Back To The Future.

Love the new flavour text. The dreadlocks woman didn't really look that inspired. I think funny hat guy takes the cake for best art though.

7th edition. I can't really call what the Ravnica guy has a hat. I always assumed it was hanging from the ceiling.
