Gary Chatterton again ?

I'm sure that White Wolf didn't pay Chatterton less than the other reprint artists and look at Enhanced Senses and Thaumaturgy et al. Decent to very good artwork. Artwork does affect the game, I remember one player who said he refused to play Ambush in his decks (no matter how utilitarian the card was) simply because he couldn't stand the art. He was actually happy when NoR came out so he could play the Ambush rule card and not have to look at the old bad art. I think his name was Peter something.

Well, we know his name wasn't Gary.

Not that dissimilar to the girl who used to work in our store who only used cards with pretty pictures in her MtG decks.

Kinda commendable that you impose limitations to yourself on how to build decks
