Aihe: hautakivi?

[fallen angel 91]

niin mietin että mikä se sellainen hautakivi mikä joidenkin korttien nimen edessä oikein on?

Joskus Odysseyn aikaan se oli merkkinä siitä, että kortti tekee jotakin hautausmaalla (esim. flashback ja inkarnaatiot).

Q: "Why do some cards from Judgment have gravestone symbols (like Canopy Claws, for example)?"
--Nicola

A: From Devin Low, Magic R&D:

 "Hey Nicola, Odyssey block (Odyssey-Torment-Judgment) has a lot of cards that interact with the graveyard in special ways. The clearest examples are the keywords Threshold and Flashback that ran throughout the block. For these three sets, we put the tombstone icon on every card with abilities that worked from the graveyard, so that players could look over at a graveyard and quickly see all the cards that were worth paying attention to in there. That means every Flashback card, like Canopy Claws, got a tombstone icon. So did Judgment’s Incarnations like Anger, and several other graveyard-active cards. In more recent sets, there is less focus on the graveyard, and the tombstone would only come up very infrequently, so we decided to stop using the icon."
