I love the art. They should have reprinted this one for M10...

I totally agree with you, Volcre!!! The artwork for this Onslaught version of Pacifism is phenomenal! And I'm getting so tired of the other, overused Pacifism artwork! (I honestly never cared for it in the first place.) They so should've used this one for M10!

Akroma should not be shown prominently on a card titled "Pacifism." It's like putting Gaddock Teeg on Giant Growth.

Akroma Should totally be on the picture for pacifism! I've seen this version of the card make half the table stop bashing each other and look. ;-)

And honestly, who really likes the weird zombie goat herder in the picture they use now?

No one.

No one likes the weird zombie goat herder.

It needs new art more than any of the cards they brought back for M11.

Greatest Pacifism art ever made. Too bad it's A) art for an expansion reprint of a staple card and B) heavily steeped in past lore and therefore can't be reused. Honestly, though, anything beats the ugly art they've been using for the past eternity, even that one random version they did once with a half-naked warrior in the snow, so I really hope they at least print some new art for M12.

Anyway this is probably my favorite piece from Matthew D. Wilson, and that's saying something, because the dude certainly has an impressive Magic repetoire.

What's wrong with putting Gaddock Teeg on Giant Growth? That would be awesome. "WHOS THE HALFLING NOW BIZNIPITCHES"

Simply put , this is THE art for Pacifism ... If only WotC would bring our dear Akroma art back to us :(

M13 reprinted Akroma's Memorial. Why not Akroma's Pacifism? The current Pacifism art is probably the worst in the set, while this is among the hottest cards ever printed. I seriously cannot believe that this artwork isn't seeing a reprint yet.

I don't like the art, but it's not as bad as the others.

That said- this card is pretty good in any deck running white. I'm not going to say it's an auto-include, but it can certainly be helpful.

This art has never been reprinted in a core set? You can argue that Akroma's lore/backstory could feel out of place in a core set to new players, but Akroma's Memorial made a core set, so why not this card?
