Were there different version of this card? I feel like I had one of these at some point
There's Alpha, Beta and Unlimited. It's on the reserve list so won't be reprinted again. But there's been a lot of lotus-style cards over the years
They can reprint it as a ~~judge promo~~ or official unplayable card like in the 30th edition lol.
Edit: A previous version of the policy allowed premium reprints but that's no longer the case. My mistake.
@JackbyDev @MysticKetchup judge promos are completely playable. That one's out
You're correct. My mistake. https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/official-reprint-policy
@JackbyDev @MysticKetchup judge promos no longer exist and after a few reserved list judge promos they did a reserved list promo in a wider distribution and the reaction caused WotC to update the policy to not allow those printings to happen again.
I mentioned elsewhere on the thread after a different user corrected me but it might be hard to see from Mastodon. I'm not sure why I had the wrong impression because I began playing after that change.
Alpha, Beta and Unlimited
Yeah, correct, I mixed up Unlimited and Revised
