Signature Spellbook: Sunset Shimmer · 3:04am Mar 22nd, 2018
Signature Spellbook: Sunset Shimmer will come with a copy of Sunset As One as well as seven other spells.
New Art: Sunset Shimmer is shown as a human, ponied-up and with her spiffy new alicorn wings, flying across an orange sky at dusk with cream-colored clouds. As she flies, she thrusts her right hand forward, sending out a double-helix of bright plasma.
New Flavor Text: “The way I see it, my magic is like the sun. Warm and nurturing, yet powerful, blistering, and uncompromising.”
New Art: Sunset is shown on a stone floor in what looks like some kind of dungeon, standing in the center of a pentagram circle with lines seemingly made from miniature trails of flame. As she stands, her hands burn with blood-colored fire, and and wafts of black smoke rise from the pentagram. She looks directly at the viewer, her expression humorless and grim.
New flavor text: “I will sooner bleed myself dry than let anyone take my friends away from me.”
New art: Sunset, her eyes closed in quiet resolve, walking unflinchingly away from a gigantic explosion that covers the entire rest of the card art. Looking closely at the art will reveal a silhouette near the back that greatly resembles Atraxa being torn apart by the force of the blast.

New Art: Sunset Shimmer stands amid a ruined battlefield littered with scraps of Phyrexian machinery. As she raises her arms skyward, beams of golden light descend from the battlefield and bathe it in radiance, causing her friends to slowly pick themselves up off the ground, miraculously healed from their lethal injuries.
New Flavor Text: “Nobody is dying today. Not while I have anything to say about it.”
New Art: Sunset Shimmer’s ponied-up silhouette is seen flying up to meet the rising sun itself, in a manner similar to how Princess Celestia appears during the Summer Sun Celebration, though the colors of the piece lean much more heavily towards oranges and reds.
New Flavor Text: N/A
New Art: Sunset Shimmer stands within a darkened void, containing nothing but a miasma of shadowy clouds surrounding her. The setting is abstract enough that it’s not entirely clear if it’s real or simply a representation of her inner mind. A shape in the clouds resembling her She-Demon form looms over her, extending its claw towards her, which Sunset reaches out with a hand to touch.
New Flavor Text: “My dark side doesn’t define me, but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t give good advice sometimes.”

Many who cross Sunset's path come down with a sudden and painful case of being-in-the-way-of-a-temperamental-heliomancer.
Pinkie's going to be tricky. There aren't a lot of black and red effects that have the theme of "happy fun times," and Live Fast comes with baggage of its own. I'll have to think about that. In the meantime, great choices for the other Mardu planestrotter.
