Card Border Redesign: The Old Style

[the dictator]

Instead of making it look more advanced, I decided to turn cards of the game into very old pieces of paper, made by old magicians who used to powers of the elements secretly.



Yes, there will be 5 different types of cards: creatures (indicated by their stats), spells (lightning art), shields (shield art), weapons (sword) and normal permanent (Greek pillar).

Also, I made the differences between the unupped and the upped versions of the cards small, but fast to see: The "art by" and the type signs are white instead of black, and the card itself has a little different color which together should make the differences easy to see, while still keeping the old look.

Btw, the font is Chopin Script (http://www.dafont.com/chopin-script.font).

Just to make it clear: This is for the Card Border Redesign (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20788.0.html) competition, and not to be implemented in the game.

I think this is a great idea, but could you please make the font more legible?

The font for the title is alright, but as stated before, the card text should be readable Nice take on this, I really like it

Has this been implemented into the game yet?

These card border redesigns are only for a competition and will not be implemented in the game.

These are awesome! the only possible changes I can see/think of is changing the description & art by... font, it's kind of illegible @_@

I think the cards themselves are lacking too much in color. Also, I know you're trying to make them look old, but they look like they are about to turn to dust.

And that was exactly the idea

lol the difference between unupped and upped gives MtG nostalgia... would nymphs then have silver and gold?

I never played MtG, so I don't know what you mean, but no, I think they will be just black and white too

  that would be hilarious if they copied the MtG rarity symbol (colours), but I can so see them doing that!

I think the font should be a bit more legible, but still a little fancy. That's my only suggestion
