ThePeavstenator posted:Phyrexia attacks Kaladesh The names of the Kaladesh sets don't sound like off plane things coming onto the plane to gently caress it up. If anything Chandra goes home, sees how bad it is, gets pissed off, and leads a revloution. Edit: And her totally dead Mom will show up and also be a planeswalker.

mcmagic posted:I can't believe people care enough about Magic lore to fill up 2 forums pages... How is that surprising? We can spend pages rehashing talk on rapists that we spent dozens of pages on already. Also it's natural, as they've stepped up their investment in story as well as in tying it more closely to the sets themselves. It even comes up all the time in their investor statements of all things. Thirdly it's easy to make fun endlessly when it's this bad.

I feel like after Ulamog, both Kozilek/Emrakul are boring as gently caress designs that fail to justify their own existence. In an abstract sense, all of them do the same thing. I mean, its true to the original design of the Eldrazi Titans, but on the second go-round I would have expected some variety in how they play similar to how the Dragonlords were.

Emrakul seems like a great fan-made card but a loving awful thing to have to actually play against week after week.

Baron Porkface posted:Why did she try to stop them? IIRC Kiora was afraid the titans were unkillable and thought the jacetice league would piss them off and everyone would die. She wanted the both of them to get bored from zendikar and walk off to another plane. Turns out you can kill them with fire. Whoddathunk.

rabidsquid posted:The cynic in me believes that they're banking on the quicker turnaround to get players to not notice this. It's going to be funny when they revert to the old cycle when everyone finds the new one to revolve too quickly and switch to legacy/modern instead. At least that's what I've been seeing/hearing. Standard rates dropping in all the LGSs I regularly visit, modern or draft for FNM instead. Only the grinders cared about standard at all.
