DoTP 2013 Personas

~
Happy Monday MTG peeps,

To those fellow Canadians, this is the last day of the long weekend so get some Magic the Gathering gaming in before the trudge back to work on Tuesday.  We hit up M13 game day on Saturday on OMG! Games here in Barrie, Ontario and came away with a new new ideas for tweaks to existing decks we run as well as new builds.  If you don't have a gaming store near you, get on over to MTG Mint Card who has a great stock and solid prices on MTG singles.

News today comes from Karric on the forums who loves playing Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013.  

He was able to lift a collection of DoTP 2013 persona icons from the game and provide this to us.  Personas on DoTP are unlockable arts one can use to represent your character within the game. Why is this interesting?  Firstly, because Wizards has kick-butt art but also it may provide a possible future art we may see on a card (yeah - it's a long shot).


Let's have a looky-loo . . .
