While Id never use art as a justification for why a card is great, its also worth pointing out that Dominik Mayer understood the assignment and absolutely killed it as usual
According to MTG Head Designer Mark Rosewater, they wanted a mechanic that illustrates the villains' intelligence, that lets players scheme and plan ahead
Lastly, getting your cards graded by professional grading services like BGS, CGC, or PSA will help ensure their authenticity and value, especially when it comes to reselling
I can definitely understand people not putting Yawgmoth, Thran Physician in their top five list as its only played in one deck, which isnt a dominant player in the metagame either, but the card makes the archetype and there arent too many good mono-black creatures in Modern right now
Top 64 still get points and a booster box, but I knew I could have gone further, and now my goal is to do better at my next Regional Championship in a few days
