With nine sets on the 2024 release calendar, you could fill an entire gallery with all the stunning Magic: The Gathering illustrations we’re set to see this year. From what we’ve seen so far, MTG Modern Horizons 3 is no exception.
And what a treat! After all, before your mind gets a chance to read through abilities in a set like MTG Modern Horizons 3 or get into the nitty gritty questions of balance or format legality that plague the best card games, the art is what forms players’ first impressions.
That said, players have been finding certain cards particularly aesthetically pleasing. Just earlier this week, the first look for Outlaws of Thunder Junction featured a certain pointy-eared bad boy that left fans blushing. Modern Horizons 3's answer to this comes in the form of Ajani Goldmane and his brother Jazal. While the set has a Modern focus, these two leonin beefcakes seem to have rejected the contemporary social norm of wearing a shirt. It's all good though, it's not like the furries are complaining.
