Paper Cut Art

The papercut art is the most striking aspect of these cards. This beautiful art style is created by cutting and layering paper of different colors which, when viewed together, form a stunning piece.

They give Lorwyn Eclipsed’s Special Guests an extremely unique art style. Special Guests are a prime space for Wizards to let artists flex their skills. While early Special Guests from sets like Lost Caverns of Ixalan and Modern Horizons 3 similar had stellar art often tied to the plane the set took place one, recent entries have become bolder, with defined themes and art that deviates from Magic’s norms. Edge of Eternities (EOE), for example, had Special Guests with art resembling pulp magazine science fiction art:

Though Aetherdrift’s special guests lacked a particular theme, they (mostly) shared unique art more akin to what you would see in a Secret Lair drop than a standard Magic expansion:

These papercut arts feel more similar to EOE’s, as they have a unifying design utterly unlike anything in the base set—which isn’t to say ECL lacks great art. Lorwyn and Shadowmoor have always been colored by fairy tales, even if they don’t take the base material as literally as Eldraine. These cards perfectly reflect that fantastic origin; they bear the whimsy of a children’s fairy tale. These look like illustrations you could find in a book, or the base of a great stop-motion film. Because the nature of the art forces them to appear three-dimensional, it’s extremely easy to imagine them as pop-up figure you unfold from your favorite book as a child. Of course, all the great art in the world doesn’t matter if nobody will play with the cards—but that won’t be an issue for these Special Guests.

Incredible Reprints

The choice of cards in previous Special Guests have been…questionable. While they always contain some chase cards, reprints, and popular spells—Mana Crypt and Underworld Breach in LCI, Field of the Dead in Murders at Karlov Manor, Grief and friends in MH3—these lists are often studded with underwhelming choices:

SPG has always biased towards strong spells that are, if not scarce, at least popular, but not all Special Guests are made equal. But ECL sets a new standard with nothing but great cards, including various high-budget reprints and niche powerhouses.

Some of these cards hold greater value: Bitterblossom isn’t the powerhouse it once was, but still costs about $22 on TCGplayer; Dolmen Gate boasts a similar price. Painter's Servant is easily the most expensive card Special Guest, as its original Shadowmoor printing costs $67 on TCGplayer. Not only are these high-value cards, they’re among the most iconic cards printed during our first visit to Lorwyn/Shadowmoor.

Even the cards without high price tags are extremely playable; cards like Door of Destiny, Thousand-Year Elixir, and Devoted Druid see play in Commander and beyond. Even the most niche cards—typal support pieces like Leaf-Crowned Visionary and Wanderwine Prophets, are among the best support pieces available for their respective creature types. Almost every Magic player can find a Special Guest worth adding to their collection, be it for power, or art.
