At first I thought it was a printing error, but I see the same thing in scryfall images of the card. They’ve done a lot of variations with the card art over the years but I’ve never seen an art variation that obscures the card text itself (excluding cards that omit the text entirely because the card is well known, like Islands).
I’m just surprised that I can’t even find anyone talking about it because it seems like an odd design choice to me.
Even back in 2008, I remember complaints about this one:
Instant Choose two — • Counter target spell. • Return target permanent to its owner’s hand. • Tap all creatures your opponents control. • Draw a card.This is a mouthful when you have to explain.
Legendary Creature — Elemental When Omnath enters, draw a card. Landfall — Whenever a land you control enters, you gain 4 life if this is the first time this ability has resolved this turn. If it’s the second time, add {R}{G}{W}{U}. If it’s the third time, Omnath deals 4 damage to each opponent and each planeswalker you don’t control.
