Alot of the Ice Age art is so bad! Did they try to make it more cartoony at the time to make it more parent-friendly?

Is that Mount Crumpet behind him?

I sort of like how the art in Ice Age has strong outlines it makes each card look distinctly different. In M10 and even earlier than that, a lot of cards have the same artist and are in the same art style which makes it all look kind of same-y and boring. Of course consider the Unhinged cards that deal with artists, particularly some that make your opponent unable to play cards by a certain artist because if you choose Greg Staples they'll have a lot of fun trying to get any lands out.

Crypt Ripper now beats this dude out, unless you're playing multi-color (which you shouldn't be if you have black pump creatures).

Now that we have infect I think I'd prefer this over Nantuko Shade.

Way too expensive for magic nowadays, and with no evasion?

Legends say it's the ghost of Gwendlyn Di Corci...

@Shadoflaam: Makes sense. Gwendlyn Di Corci definitely looks like a hoar.

Dirty hoar.

I'd rather have one of the flying shades for the same cost, but you gotta rate this one 5/5 purely for looking exactly like the Green Goblin.

Art reminds me of Ralph Bakshi's work...
