[Request] Eldraine Court Symbols #137

Closed ElectroShade closed 3 weeks ago

The five courts of Eldraine each have their own symbols which could potentially be included assuming they aren't too complicated to be traced and added. Just a thought after seeing all the other faction ones:

These are really cool as well, I think the 2 issues are that they're very complicated/multicolor and I'm not sure they've ever been printed as a card watermark. Do you know if these were used anywhere outside of marketing materials? I'd love to know where you all found these originally too.

The planeswalker guide I linked has them in the “Virtues” section if you scroll down a bit into it. I don’t think they were ever used as watermarks though, just in card art and promo materials.

Ah! I should've read that more closely 🤦

I think if they weren't on the cards we can leave them out for now, but this is a great reference if/when WotC does ever include them as watermarks.

Sounds good. I’ll close the issue then for now.
