Dragons are extinct on the plane, but presumably that will feature into the plot somehow.

I wonder, did Sarkhan finally break out of Bolas' control and we're gonna have (yet another) RG Planeswalker, or are we going to have a Grixiswalker in Standard?

Regardless, MaRo is a loving tease.

Ogres are generally bigger. Maro's said they've been wanting to find a setting for them to stick Orcs (and Dwarves) in, at least temporarily.

It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
Here's a video for those who missed it. I had seen pictures of MaRo, and I've heard his voice a ton on podcasts but oh man seeing video of him is a whole thing altogether. I love that goofy dude.

Have they ever done a block structure like...

- 3x first large set
- First large set and small set
- Second large set and small set

...before? I'm trying to think what the "twist" that MaRo's been hyping is going to be.

I mean if it's not Fetchlands I'd be totally down with Orcs being A Race In Magic Again as "The Thing We've Never Done that you all wanted".

"I said it was dodgeball time, bitch."
So this name was spoiled by Wizards filing for trademark a little while back. I assume that means the second set is called Dragons of Tarkir since that name was also trademarked. Any ideas what the third set will be called? Were there any more trademarks filed by Wizards that I missed?

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
If they bring back orcs, I hope they bring back all the things they're known for, including but not limited to:

- semi-interaction with goblins
- coin flipping
- the Ironclaw curse
- good art

So was "Warlords of Khanar" a development name or were we looking at the name of the block/second or third set?

He mentioned on his blog a while back that he's dropped about 25 pounds in the past year. His secret? Less food and more exercise.

Shocking how that's the secret.

No really, how do people forget that eating less and exercising more is the quickest and healthiest way to lose weight?
