Alternate-art MtG cards come in many different forms
Storm, Force of Nature Lightning Bolt (242k decks, $1 to $600) Jeskas Will (398k decks, $20 to $90) Ice Storm (374 decks!, $8 to $300) Manamorphose (22k decks, $4 to $30) Storm is terrifying, a must-kill threat who can wreck a table in a bunch of different ways
