Every time I see this printing of Cultivate played in paper or on arena it makes me feel icky.
I don't like the depiction of a black man with large lips/nose, or of him as a farmer. The idea of him "farming" your mana for you feels wrong.
Maybe I'm overreacting but it feels like this should never have made it to print? I know it's a fantasy setting but it still feels ill advised and poorly thought out. It plays into so many terrible stereotypes and I wish WoTC had done better.
