Second Thoughts

Eventide Trivia Request

Hello Mark! As today is my birthday, I would like to request some trivia on my favorite set artistically, Eventide. Thanks!

Eventide is the only set in my history as Head Designer where I offered someone the job of lead designer for a set and they turned me down (technically, they accepted, had second thoughts, and then turned me down). Not having another good candidate that was free to do it, I ended up leading the design for the set. (This predated vision design/set design/play design, back when it was design/development.) Happy Birthday!

Exiling Cards Flavor

"Swords to Plowshares is the only exiling card with that flavor" What about second Thoughts, the name art and and flavor text prety much is the creature voluntary saying "Screw This, I'm Outta Here!"

You’re correct that a few cards followed Swords to Plowshares lead.
