My top 100 Magic: the Gathering card arts, 1-10

The end of the list, or the beginning depending on your perspective. This is it, from 10 to 1, the Magic cards I (currently) like best. Great new cards arts appear with every release, and I’m sure if I were to repeat this a year from now the list would be different. I don’t think the number one card would change though.

10 – Distress – Michael C. Hayes – Magic 2012

 

9 – Knight of Obligation – Ryan Barger – Gatecrash

 

8 – Wind Dancer – Cynthia Sheppard – Conspiracy

 

7 – Elspeth, Knight-Errant – Volkan Baga – Shards of Alara

 

6 – Restoration Angel – Johannes Voss – Avacyn Restored

 

5 – Mardu Heart-Piercer – Karl Kopinski – Khans of Tarkir

 

4 – Swamp – John Avon – Unhinged

 

3 – Simic Guildgate – Svetlin Velinov – Gatecrash

 

2 – Endless Ranks of the Dead – Ryan Yee – Innistrad

 

1 – Cartographer – Donato Giancola – Odyssey

 

What can I say? I’ve always had a thing for maps. I’ve had my say – what are some of your favourite Magic card arts?
