Title: Most iconic cards/card art in Innistrad?
Post by: Bozo_Law on August 11, 2013, 09:54:11 PM
What are some of the most iconic cards in Innistrad (the set, not the block) along with some of the most iconic card arts? I would like to make myself a custom playmat because of the rotation of Innistrad, the set where I started playing Magic.

{Delver of Secrets} and {Snapcaster Mage} are pretty iconic.

Seriously though, a Lili playmat would be sweet.

how about a playmat with Lili, GosT, Snapcaster Mage, Endless Ranks of the dead (background), and Delver of Secrets, somehow blended together.

I think  {Doomed Traveler} is good flavor wise.

Are we rating this on the literal meaning of iconic? Or just best? Iconically, it has to be {Helvault} or {Tree of Redemption} since they appeared in many of the card artworks, flavour text or plot in general. If not them, then it has to be the big girl herself, {Avacyn, Angel of Hope}!

But this is only if iconic was the focus of the thread. If the thread meant coolest card, I'm going with {Elbrus, the Binding Blade}/{Withengar Unbound} off the top of my head.

She's avacyn restored, not innistrad.
And Elbrus is dark ascension.

 All the previously mentioned cards were innistrad with the exception of black cat avacyn, withengar, and victim of night. my mistake, apologies.
