Arbitrary Token of the Week: Wall (EMA)

This week’s arbitrary token is Brian Snoddy’s 5/5 blue Wall creature token with defender, created by Tidal Wave from Eternal Masters. Originally printed in Mirage, Tidal Wave effectively acts as a removal spell for medium- to small-sized creatures that dare to attack you. While the EMA reprint retains the original art, the flavor text has been changed to a quote from Thassa, god of the sea, from the plane of Theros.

I love how they were able to get Snoddy back to illustrate the token for EMA. While the “shattered remnants” of an unwelcomed vessel rests in the foreground, our eyes are drawn to the massive tidal wave in the back... wait a minute...
