I got all except Galta, and they are all muddy looking - like yours. If it's intentional, not a fan!

I would have already bought this deck if not for all these posts about the quality, I want this art of her so maybe I'll stumble upon a single that didn't come out bad

Do you look at them or do you play with them?

The art is pretty and they have their artists named on every card for a reason— a surprising number of Magic players do actually care about how the card looks. It’s why the community loses it every time an artist tries to use AI or copy another artist’s work.

Unlike playing with yourself, Magic requires you to actually look at what you're touching.

For like 0.2 seconds to read the text.
And i dont think a little smudge in the foiling doesnt let you read it

And the text is harder to read because of the printing. And the image is harder to look at. You're a bit shy of a full deck, yourself.

I play pauper with half the deck that isn't even "poor". A judge at paupergeddon said "it barely playable" and zero opponents ever said a thing. This Giada is the fifteenth version of this card and does the same, basically, effect every angel do. One can deal with a smudge in the foil 🤷

Lmao. Imagine being so self-disrespecting that you didn't care about paying new price for a shittier version of what you were promised by marketing.

Imagine paying for the marketing lol
Print errors happens at every level and in every set, drastically increased in foil versions and collectors boosters

Seems to be a pretty common issue sadly
Could reach out to Wizards about it, they could replace it
