Duel Decks: Pirates vs. Ninjas (PVN)

[yandere-sliver]

I just realized that this April fools joke actually had a set symbol - a shuriken and a hook

[andrewgioia]

@yandere-sliver is this a real card from WOTC or a fan-created card?

[yandere-sliver]

Hi Andrew
it is from WotC but it was never printed to my knowledge. It was from an April Fools Joke they pulled one year and created a few alternate artwork cards, a set symbol as well as decklists.

Not a real released product. Posted on the mothership here:

Some additional cards for reference, though the symbol is still really low res:

Can't let this artifact be lost to time.
It adds no value to finding a high res version of the PVN symbol though.

Wow! What a great time in the game that was where WOTC made a video like that. I wish they still had that sense of humor, everything is so corporate now!

Moving this (and all older v4 issues) to discussions!
