I do not criticize the idea to print these cards on a general level. They are an elegant way to spread the word about celebrity players and promote top level tournaments, and they are free completely of charge. What I *do* criticize is the way to present these players. Images of posing freaks contradict the attempt to establish Magic as a professional intellectual sport.

Choosing the word "freaks" to describe the poses, is an excellent choice of word Ralph.Ralph Herold wrote:I do not criticize the idea to print these cards on a general level.

For these chase cards, do you only want completed undamaged cards, or those that are ripped up into many pieces acceptable?

Imagine if they put Carlos Romao, or, *shudders*, that dude on Voidmage... Maybe some woman player?
nah, it'd still suck. A lot.
Horrible idea.

Never argue with an Idiot, they will drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

I think they should have something to do with the game though. first I'd have maken them like vanguard cards. Also I'd make them look serious.

Shudder on.
I think these are a fine concept - I agree the poses are unfortunate at best, but they will make the big names better known to the casual players that attend Pre-Releases. The more interested casual players are in bigger events the better for everyone.
