The joke is that red and black are no longer parts of Magic and only Bant remains.

Oh that's simpler than what I thought, I was trying to see some connection to a recent tweet or comic or something.

Thanks :downs:

That will be loving expensive. Some pretty decent reprints. Shame there will be what? Maybe a thousand of each entered into circulation?

Not surprised it's in it but I don't think this lowers the price of previous printings. You're probably looking at at least 150 bucks for this printing.

Yeah this. The only major miss for me is Champion's Helm, both in art and in "value", and I don't care too much about the Gearhulks personally, but :wow:

the reprints look great. Rip my money at the prerelease.

These are all gorgeous. I want them all.

Except Champion's Helm. That's one's booty.

GonSmithe: Apr 25, 2010; Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.

Champion's Helm is pretty hilarious, but otherwise that's a great batch of cards that all look gorgeous. I can't wait to see what they look like in person.

I assume the last 2 swords will take up 2 slots next set.

Not every Mox Opal is MIrran, just like not every Lotus is from Dominiaria (they occur on Zendikar as well).

Those are absolutely beautiful.

I actually scrolled past everything else without reading them until I got to Solemn Simulacrum and then got sad as a robot.

These are absolutely loving gorgeous.

They don't seem to be pulling any punches about non-reserve list cards that are commander/vintage only, too - I would not have expected to see mana vault AND crypt on this list.

Oh man, there are going to be some hilarious Masterpiece blowouts.

But goddamn, these are all pretty as hell. Can't wait to see what they look like with a metallic foiling process.

Chill la Chill: Jul 2, 2007; Don't lose your gay

After they get on the level of '90s baseball card foiling processes, WOTC will soon start including one guaranteed hit per Hobby TM box, which is like a regular box but costs more and has 6 more packs.

you should not buy packs to open unless you plan on drafting with friends a lot or you own a store and you need to stock up

Zemyla: Aug 6, 2008; I'll take her off your hands. Pleasure doing business with you!

So they're going to have a Masterpiece Series in every set from now on.

They need to reprint Thespian's Stage in one of these, so we can have a Masterpiece Theater.
