I have one question -
"Why?"

>>714818998 (OP)
money

>>714818998 (OP)
westoids are not good at cutesiness

>>714818998 (OP)
Mtg artist are so shit its not even funny

>>714818998 (OP)
Lmfao newfag knows nothing about wizards of the coast.
They are much, much worse.

>>714818998 (OP)
wtf lol

Come play Shadowverse with us.

>>714818998 (OP)
I wish the Sonic art looked uncanny like this instead of cartoony

>>714818998 (OP)
EDHfags will buy anything

>>714819303
The old guard of artists literally got fired because they were too good and they get brought back in for a couple of artworks for cards in premium priced sets, the regular sets are done dogshit on purpose so you don't want to buy them and wizards blames you for their lost sales.

MTG has literally fired and canceled all of their based artists over the years going so far as to ban 30 year old trash cards no one even remembered existed for virtue signaling reasons, I stopped playing when they released the LOTR set and made Aragon black

>>714819696
I honestly don't give a single fuck about any of that. I hate that they turned modern into a rotating format with Horizons sets and basically killed off all large events in favor of focusing more on individual play groups that only play EDH

>>714819472
Is there sex in that game?

There's only like five westerners in the entire world that can perfectly replicate anime without it being off and they're sure as fuck not working with MTG.

>>714818998 (OP)
because jotc realized that they can easily make big bux by endlessly shitting out crossover slop that people will buy just because it has something they recognize on it. also the tcg market in the west is fucking dire and they have tons of momentum just from being #1 in the west for so long (possibly also the result of intentionally fucking up competition they were given the rights to so mtg could stay #1)

>>714818998 (OP)
At least we got this one too

>>714819542
Mtg art was never good outside of the very first few sets that were clearly aping popculture fantasy at the time. But yes I know the jews make products for other long noses

This card is $2,000.

>>714819542
They literally fired one of the most prolific and beloved MTG artists because she liked a few tweets lmao. WotC is a joke and I have refused to support them for like 6 or 7 years now.

>>714820072
Yeah man

>>714820072
Yes. If you don't cum within the first hour, you get your money back.

>>714820204
>>714820275
Why can't westerners do good illustrations like these

>>714820679
What do you mean?

>>714820072
yes. it involves you, the player, personally getting ass fucked by KMR's greed until you either say enough's enough or you become a mindbroken paypig

>>714820921
Holy hell lmao. Even if I ignore the obvious alphabet pandering the illustration is shit.

>>714818998 (OP)
Good lord she looks creepy, the rest of the art isn't even that bad, the face is just abysmal. The artist should have either gone with realism or Miku's standard moeblob face instead of mixing the two.
>>714819515
It would if they still had their old Archie artists.

DAILY REMINDER THAT WOTC TRIED TO KILL POKEMON IN THE WEST BECAUSE THEY WERE SCARED OF THE COMPETITION
>slowking mistranslation that made it completely overpowered and broke the game for 2 entire years
>no errata despite it making every other deck unplayable, resulting in a 2 year long tier 0 format
>constant terrible rulings that had no basis in how the game actually worked, all of which had to be reversed when tpc took back control
>bizarre game-destroying decisions like randomly stopping all events for the age 15+ division, meaning if you were over the age of 14 your ability to play in events depended on the mood of some random tournament organizers at wotc
Fuck these faggots, they killed duel masters too. Fucking scumbag company.

>>714818998 (OP)
This can't be real.

>>714822189
>they killed duel masters too.
I was about to ask what kind of shit they did to Yu-Gi-Oh.

>>714822278
Yeah it's fake. Here's the real one.

why bluepissrat shit is so overrated and mainstream?

>>714819472
Isn’t the new version super stingy or something?

>>714822668
No, it's way more generous than the old game.

>>714820921
This art genuinely makes me mad. WotC themselves have banned old cards with slightly sexual art and also have reprinted/altered art on cards that they did not like due to their sexual undertones. They then print this, which is outwardly sexual in nature. In a game that is aimed at teens.
It is just frustrating. If this card existed but then we still had elves and sorceresses with cleavage I would not care, but the fact that this is celebrated but some boobs are demonized is just upsetting.

>>714820484
>>714820441
Cool. I don't like card games but I'll download for the real sex.

It was for a gay set, it's a good joke

>>714822392
That's even worse...

>>714823303
No, it is a bad joke because they're annoying cunts who are not okay with women being sexualized (because it is a teen game, in their own words) but are okay with depicting a bunch of naked gay guys for teens. Hypocrisy upsets me. Allow sex for all or sex for none.

>>714818998 (OP)
It could have honestly been worse

>>714823303
>joke
Just like wotc I guess

>>714822668
It doesn't let you dust cards until you have a playset (3, including legendaries), but as far as getting freebies it feels even more generous than first game so far. Like their park dailies outright give gold and legendary cards instead of packs or currency.

they didn't make miku ugly on purpose
they just asked a bunch of artists who don't draw in the anime style to then try and draw an anime character
so naturally it won't turn out very good
but WotC are dum dums

i want to get into a card game, whats more fun shadowverse or mtg

>>714831050
What are they gonna do? Buy all the cards in the secondary market?

The FF collab still has a bunch of stinkers but the quality is generally higher than the Migu collab at least.

>>714833594
Doesn't that one have way more cards too?

>>714833320
Digimon

>>714833642
It's an actual full set with new cards, the Migu one is just existing cards with a Migu filter placed over the old card.

>>714822392
>"card" can be your commander
well yea no shit, it's a legendary

>>714833927
anon there's more rules than just being a legendary which is why that's written

>>714834042
nah

>>714833887
The FF ones are pre-existing cards too.

>>714834098
thats not the FF set that's just a secret lair

I'm gonna make my own secret lair by printing my custom cards and alt arts on stickers and telling everyone to prove it's not from a real drop if they try to call me on it

>>714834131
You lost me.
I thought collabs were limited to those special packs as a way to separate them from the real game. Now they just said "fuck it" and started incorporating other IPs into their game?

>>714823002
>actual fortnite levels of crossover slop
It literally had Fortnite as a crossover before this

>>714834404
>I thought collabs were limited to those special packs as a way to separate them from the real game.
that's how it used to be
>Now they just said "fuck it" and started incorporating other IPs into their game?
yeah now its part of modern rotation. and seeing as FF is the best selling set by all metrics it's likely to be more common.

>>714834404
Final Fantasy is Standard legal even

>>714834531
>>714834573

It's not even Magic: The Gathering anymore.

>>714834573
I love vivi so fucking much he's hilariously broken

>>714834645
Yeah. I feel bad for the people who actually liked the settings and story for MTG, even if I wasn't one of them. Still got some Final Fantasy MTG cards though so I can play games with friends who have already long since given up hope for MTG to feel like MTG anymore.

>>714834645
next set that isn't crossover slop is sci-fi so they don't really give a fuck anymore

>>714818998 (OP)
Troons hate Miku and try to destroy her any chance they get.

>>714834827
Is there a topless alt? They might as well make it at this point.

>>714834908
Technically that one is the main alt art version. The normal one looks disappointing and then there is the $1000+ special promo one

>>714834757
I like Vivi as a character so I'm glad he ended up so good at least. Kind of wanted more Black Mage cards in general though, personally disappointed they didn't make one card each for the FF1 classes at least and just have the Job Select equipment cards instead.

>>714835070
>we could have gotten art of miku punching the shit out of something
How they handled the Miku packs has to be some sort of historical fuck-up.

>>714835070
so has this confirmed that her remake design is the official design from now on?

>>714829087
>pee on the bed
IWTWM...

>>714835335
To be fair, Cloud's design has been his AC/Remake design even longer, and it fucking sucks.

>>714835235
The shit art from the Miku cards is just a sign that Hasbro needs to die as a company because they're clearly incompetent and cannot be trusted with money or intellectual properties unless they're being hard tardwrangled.
>>714835335
It seems like SquareEnix had a much tighter grip on things for art than other IP owners so they likely insisted on the FF7Re designs for all the FF7 cards to act as advertising.

>>714835070
what the actual is the difference between 563 and 391? I layered them and the only difference is the set number.

>>714823303
you are retarded

>>714835660
One is the special foil version that costs $111 instead of $17. They just make them different numbers for making the sets seem bigger.

>>714835070
>gaijin art has horrible proportions with tiny T-Rex arms and questionable jaws
>superior Nippon art is the alt version

>>714818998 (OP)
Magic is for trannys

>>714834645
gonna cry about it?

>>714835825
There is a reason the non-alt version costs only $3 obviously. Pretty much everyone I know who has any amount of the cards from the set, myself included, try to use the alts as much as possible for the better art. I stuck together a deck based around Cecil from FF4 to play mememander with my friends who play MTG and fuck his normal art looks bad on his paladin side.

>>714835884
No I'm going to laugh.

>>714836069
>fuck his normal art looks bad on his paladin side.
Does it? I think it looks pretty cool. Maybe only because it's small.
You're talking about the one where's lifting the sword right?

>>714836206
The face looks bad to me for some reason. He's at least better than Tifa's I will say.

>>714836393
I was right, shouldn't have zoomed in.
He's looks more like Joe, Redeemed Paladin.

>>714819472
i stopped playing that game when they made neutral cards the best strat in the game and every deck was just a different flavor of the same thing

Jumbo Cactaur looks good in both arts at least

>>714834098
How did Jack not get a single card in the set?

>>714818998 (OP)
Hasbro nepotism. They cancel good artists like Terese Nielsen and Seb and ensure that their libshit friends get commissions.

>>714838249
Mainline, other than 7Re, numbered games only. So no Tactics either. With how well the set sold I'd not be surprised if they do another Final Fantasy set at some point with the spinoff/minor games or something.

>>714820921

>>714819472
>Runecraft petclass

>>714838448
Did the Miku sets sell well? How do you even know this stuff?

>>714838565
>Did the Miku sets sell well?
they sold out so that's usually a good sign

>>714818998 (OP)
>>714820679
>>714822392
I feel like what happened is that they were like
>wouldn't it be fun if we had our artists draw hatsune miku
and they didn't actually consult the artists at all or even provide context for the character, that they needed since they obviously don't fucking draw anime characters or in an anime artstyle at all. and they were just like "Draw it in your style, it'll be fun."

I wouldn't blame the artists for not knowing what the fuck an anime is, I'd blame WotC for being retarded as usual.

>>714838565
With the Miku one it's hard to say, the kind of set it was basically auto sells out because of speculation and scalping combined with actual fans. For Final Fantasy they officially announced that it has been the best selling set in the history of the game when doing their quarterly sales talks. Which, even though I like Final Fantasy, is probably a really bad thing for anyone that held a special place in their hearts for Magic The Gathering because Hasbro is probably going to intensify this direction for more money.

>>714820921
This can't be real! Tell me this is a joke!

I hate to admit but the upcoming space set looks kinda good. The starships stick out like a sore thumb but the cosmic creatures and the aliens look great

>>714818998 (OP)
Simple. Dogshit art for dogshit music. Equal exchange at its finest.

>>714833927
Planewalkers cant be commanders unless the card specifically tells you they can like that Miku one.

>>714831706
yup. You get it. Retards are sperging about lgbt conspiracy but just western artists being forced to draw anime

>>714818998 (OP)
it's a long tradition of migu to have absolutely abhorrent versions of her.

>>714834827
my brother got pic related from a collector booster.
is it worth building an esper commander deck with her?

>>714847002
you can buy the commander deck but it's the weakest of the four FF commander sets and upgrading it will cost you a lot of $$$ for a pretty weak effect.

>>714831606
nigger, every card game that has the concept of booster packs is a gatcha

>>714834408
Waht do you even take from a Fortnite crossover? Peter Griffin?

>>714820204
>trample

>>714848091
It was the same kind of one as the Miku crossover, where they just do alt arts with alt names of existing cards that for all gameplay and deck construction purposes are the same card as the previously existing card.

Genshin collab fucking when?

Did we do it?
Did we have some fun with migu?

>>714848198
It does make the thing where you show all versions of a particular card on the searches look a little strange, though other sets like that also do that

>>714819472
Sorry, im not trans.

>>714848332
probably never since they already have their own card game nobody plays.

>>714848434
I really do feel bad for the fans of MTG's older flavor with all these, not that it stops me from getting the flavor ruiners I like.
>>714848527
Final Fantasy has a tcg that so called people allegedly play and it got a whole set for Standard.

>>714823002
>TFW your Sonic the Hedgehog equipped with T-51b Power Armor taps to crew The Battle Bus
>TFW your opponent blocks with their Mr.Krabs and sacs Aerith to The Golden Throne to pay for his ability

MtG sure is good.

I suppose for Miku's sake she's not stuck being the functional equivalent of Spongebob Squarepants like the FF1 Warrior Of Light is.

>>714848751
>desperately wanted that specific piece of amano art on a mtg card
>ended up being a reprint of one of the faggiest possible commanders
Another toe on the monkey's paw curls.

>>714852190
They wasted all the Amano art on the reprint cards, it really sucks. Some of them are at least useful cards though.

>>714852329
They'd probably be too afraid to use the FF7 one for anything though, with how Barret looks in it and all.

>>714818998 (OP)

>>714852190
At least they got amano to do some new pieces for the set proper.
But yeah, for sure every single copy of counterspell I ever run ever again will be wild rose rebellion

>>714834404
they've been doing full decks and/or sets since wh40k, the ff one is particularly significant because it's the first standard legal set like that but the other ones were just modern-targeted sets. they do the premium priced crossovers with scalper packs every other month at this point too

>>714818998 (OP)
Japanese character drawn by a western MTG artist. Sorry, it just won't work.

Ugly art that doesn't fit the setting.
Ruins immersion.

Quit MtG when this whole greedy secret lair nonsense was announced.

>>714844651
All the artists they have left are the gay ones that like the right posts online. This is also a fault of theirs.

>>714822668
The game is review bombed on every platform for a reason.
With current reward structure and rapid release schedule it's gonna be p2w galore.
I personally hate the new Super Evolve mechanic for favoring specific legendaries.
Tournament Lobby error making you instantly drop out of the entire event with no option to reconnect was an uninstall moment for me.
Don't give a fuck if there were compensations. The game was delayed several months and it still fails at making good first impression.
Also the new story is an incomprehensible mess that reeks of AI writing.

>>714819472
I instantly quit when I saw their MiiVerse plaza.

>>714818998 (OP)
Granted, this one almost works, but the skillful art ironically makes it a tad uncanny and thus really bad.
On the topic of magic, what is it even about anymore? They keep advertising crossover sets that make me stroke the fuck out. Are they really gonna make a set based on sonic the hedgehog?

>>714818998 (OP)

>On the topic of magic, what is it even about anymore?

>sonic set
no it's a secret lair pack

>>714847002
>>714847185
the xiv precon isn't bad but it has the least consistency simply because they spent all the new card slots on making cards for as many characters as they could that basically all work in different builds (except tataru because she's just smothering tithe on legs, hence why she's like $15)
building yshtola isnt necessarily expensive but unless you want to play stax she doesn't exactly pay off great unless you make a retarded combo deck (which noctis is much better for in the same colors given he just lets you recast artifacts from grave)

>>714853047
Broadly speaking, magic still has its own storyline, but it is hyper-condensed compared to how it was long ago. I remember when each set got a book, now each set gets roughly a short story at best.
Sonic isn't getting a full set, just a tiny run of a handful of cards that you buy the entire set of, only a few of which are even mechanically unique. Still shit mind you.

>>714818998 (OP)
I just noticed those AI as fuck fingers on her right hand

>>714853047
sonic is just the 7 cards and 14 alt arts right now, they could potentially make a full set but its unlikely

magic is in the spot where everyone is laughing at it after they just did an mcu retread of the invasion plot for like 8 years, basically every set for a while has been either gimmick oriented

>>714818998 (OP)
It is funny, because the final fantasy set proved that some of their western artists can do more anime style shit reasonably well. So why the FUCK do they keep picking the absolute worst fucking artists to do the miku cards?
Presumably because square won't let their property be mishandled I guess.

>>714853220
Real sets get a series of short stories. Sometimes they're okay. Nothing will ever be as good as the actual Brothers war book as far as mtg lore goes, but insular stories are solid, Gitrog Monster has a good one.

>>714818998 (OP)
Never had a good design

>>714853047
>On the topic of magic, what is it even about anymore?
current story focus on Elspeth arriving to Tarkir because the dragonstorm there is spawning dragons who can now travel to another planes by using the bridge and she wants to stop it. However, the dragon cocksuycker Sarkhan is trying to kill Elspeth because "muh dragons & shiet". Meanwhile Ajani is still exiling himself in Abzan territory because he did awful shit while he was controlled by phyresis.
And last but not least, Jace is trying to reach the "center" of the multiverse to restore things to how they were before the "Great Pruning" which is basically mending 2.0 to remove effect of phyresis in the multiverse.

The story is a fucking mess and after the final fantasy set, everyone is going to space to find eldrazis and shit. This is the trailer.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bj7fgHCm9Nc

>>714853395
The only ones I read recently were the tarkir ones, which I was massively disappointed by. It barely even fucking had anything to do with the goddamn plane of tarkir. It could have been set on any plane and ended up in the same place.

The Sonic collab art is Kino

>>714836069
I'd say most the alt arts look much worse, I'm disappointed when I get one before I get the standard art. I don't know if it's standard for magic cards outside of FF, but most the jap art is very flat.

>>714830968
Just like the source material

>>714819696
>I stopped playing when they released the LOTR set and made Aragon black
Threadly reminder that this is the Tolkien Estate's fault. They have a particular vision for making LOTR more modern-conscious these days, and refuse to sign off on a project unless it meets that. It's also why Amazon was able to snag the license, because they promised the Estate they'd have creative partnership on all decisions regarding Rings of Power, and, well: we all saw how that turned out.

>>714822668
Yes. Some people think it's not due to extensive gibs and only one set being out, but in few months it'll be nearly impossible for f2ps to build decks, outside of going infinite in Take Two (game's draft mode)

the fuck happened in mtg? i haven't read mtg story since bolas was trapped in ravnica with ugin. I only remember the novel being so fucking shit and only know phyrexians doing shit in other planes.

>>714853210
imo yshtola is pretty shit because other commanders in esper can do more degenerate stuff compared to her, but the alt art is pretty and might go up in value in the following years.

>>714853750
>the fuck happened in mtg?
my guess is hasbro thought pic related was going to be the most popular shit

>>714852329
In hindsight it feels almost unreal how they managed to spend the first years of Magic telling a cohesive story despite always prioritizing card design over flavor.
Gerrard sacrificing himself at the end of his journey was pure cinema.
Wish Jace would fuck off already. Basically every recurrent character in the current MTG story has already overstayed their their welcome.

>>714853957
KEEEEEEEK

>>714853750
Haha, yeah. It's not like super hi-tech settings and sci-fi aesthetics haven't been part of MTG's identity for decades now. It's not like space and the Blind Eternities, along with the cosmic horror within, hasn't been a major facet of MTG's story for ages.
>>714853957
Taking every possible chance you can to try to force Concord into a discussion is not healthy behavior.

>>714853969
They're probably afraid to lose their well known "marketable" characters now, which I'm sure a number of fans would also dislike, but I do think they need to move on instead of dragging the same guys thru into these new things left and right. Like the cowboy set, or the wacky races set, or now the space set, if they're going to do these sorts of things making the same poor bastards go be cowboys and then go race cars must still be absolutely infuriating for the people who do love the characters and want to see them.
I will say it's not a problem unique to MTG though, movies and comic books have it real bad too not to mention the more on topic for the board thing video games that come out these days.

I just saved it to my /v/ folder for free.

Sometimes I wish to time travel to pre Mirari Otaria because I have a soft spot for the Odyssey block.
Unfortunately I'm pretty sure it would be a monkey's paw deal.

Will MTG ever begin to heal before it dies?

>>714854262
As far as i remember, the weatherlight could create portals to travel between places. I think this is the first time we can see vehicles reach beyond a plane's sky and enter the space.

>>714854316
>They're probably afraid to lose their well known "marketable" characters now
It really is fucking funny how full western comic slop wotc has gone. When a character DOES die, I can guarantee you they will be back eventually (see elspeth). Villains are never permanently killed, just disabled for a bit or trapped for a bit or some shit.

I will wait for the genshin collab

>>714853490
eternities is supposedly separate from the actual mtg story, making it more like the brother's war set or something. I wouldn't be surprised if they treat it as a third/fourth wheel alongside whatever they're doing with the actual story, the hat sets, and ubs

>>714854630
God this card's formatting sucks. Another reason to hate genshit fans

>>714854610
Hasbro is slow to notice money making ideas, so they're probably still on the idea that the MCU is big big money and that they have to be like it now.

>>714854914
The thing is, they work 5 years ahead of time, so they are always necessarily 5 years behind.

>>714819472
I'm already playing the paper game, no need to disgrace myself with the digital one as well

>>714853556
the ff alts that aren't drawn by actual SE artists (iirc only cloud/seph/vivi/terra/kefka/lightning have them) are all over the place, and the flat numbered backgrounds don't really help at all

>>714818998 (OP)
Western fanbase

>>714854316
>dragging the same guys through into these new things left and right
>like the cowboy set
There actually weren't that many oft-returning characters in Thunder Junction. It was mostly just Jace and Vraska. There were other returning characters beyond that, but those were ones that were much more recent or they were ones that haven't been used much, and they were still outnumbered by bespoke characters to the set.
>or the wacky races set
This one I will never understand the complaints about, at least conceptually. One can easily complain about the execution of Aetherdrift, but as far as far as it existing at all, there's no solid reason to complain about MTG Wacky Races. It's just hating fun at that point.

>>714855063
the clive, balthier & fran, kain and other yshtola alts are also SE artists or at least designers from their associated games, but beyond those and the woodblock styled prints they are pretty mediocre aside from yshtola/yuna being primo waifubait art

>>714833320
mtg 20 years ago

>>714818998 (OP)
yeah they did her dirty

at the end of the day the people at wizards are retards. The fact that they saw this art and didn't see anything wrong with it is something they should be ashamed of

>>714852405
>seen this art a bunch of times before
>just realized that was Barret after reading this post
>never saw his face
>always thought it was some stylized smoke cloud for effect or a billowing cape

>>714855537
It's just Barret being extra black, yeah. There is the alt version with more color work done where he still doesn't look like Barret but at least looks like a person rather than a shadow creature haunting Cloud.

>>714854630
I will wait for the KARDS collab

>>714855428
Wizards have proven time and time again that they can be utter retards and people will still buy their shit.

>>714831268
>draw 3 cards
This would oblierate yugioh balance. How does MTG survive this?

>>714856139
Having a resource system that they haven't flooded the game with ways around to the point of irrelevance.

>>714856139
Magic has a resource system
yu gi oh mostly doesn't
Harmonize is a passable card at best. Turns out 4 mana for 3 cards isn't a great rate.

>>714856139
you literally can't play it until turn 3 at earliest outside of the format where no one needs to play green because it's literally just yugioh

>>714818998 (OP)
I need a reaction image of her face now

>mtg is just fortnite now

>>714856139
anon engage is literally pot of greed and you can play it at three copies, still does fucking nothing in current yugioh because every card is an outright tutor

>>714856139
Mana cost. It adds a resource management aspect that isn't in yugioh.
You get 3 cards in magic there's a cost to activate them could need more setup. Draw 3 spell cards in yugioh and you can slap all their on your back row then and there.

>>714856308
>that they haven't flooded the game with ways around to the point of irrelevance.
unless you're izzet

>>714856139
mtg games can go upwards of 20 turns, cards that perpetually generate you draws are significantly stronger than potentially ending your turn for a +2 that can just be countered

>>714818998 (OP)
It's a Jojo reference

>>714853529
I didn't read any Tarkir since I hate Tarkir for turning standard into 4 color good stuff the first time it came out. Honestly I haven't read any magic lore since Eldraine 1 where Garruk gets cured of the chain veil curse by sheer twink love.

odd to have bad art with magic, the fallout one is pretty cool

>>714857359
shame most of the mechanics were shitty flavour.

>>714838449
how is this not banned

>>714856139
Every YGO deck has free draw and searches. Pot of Greed is worse than the bullshit Konami pulls with their "search X -> X summons itself when searched -> X searches Y when summoned -> Y summons itself when searched, searches when summoned -> X and Y to ED summon -> X and Y search when sent to GY and banish themselves to protect ED monster, then search again when banished"

Pokémon TCG has a draw 7 and it's still not broken. Konami simply broke YGO with poor design.

>>714832891
it's not fucked, it's underlined

>>714820921
I mean, it's not appealing to me, but it's not a bad illustration. It conveys the exact thing the card description says, in about as concise of a way as possible.

>>714857359
looks like AI

its hilarious how many people clearly havent played magic before or havent played it in the past decade. just retards that need to get angry because Woke raped their ugly mothers

>>714839508
MTG literally had a pride month store event with a special rainbow card reprint as prizing

>>714853315
>non-AI art is magically better and can't look like shit
Go browse deviant art for 2 hours
