he's right. i'm surprised people bothered supporting a format that wizards trashed in the first place.

I'm baffled as to why they dont include the playtest cards in the publicly available product. They have printed on them in huge letters "Not Legal in Constructed Play" so its just a fun thing for people to have.

I just don't understand why they wouldn't include them

They want it to sell better than an Un product?

Are they actual stickers on cards, or are they just printed to look that way?

Cool as they are, I was surprised someone okayed them. Real bad messaging, though.

this is a photoshop, right? right? E: this is like the part of Christmas Vacation where Clark finds out his bonus is a membership in a jelly of the month club, and if there were justice in the world, it would end pretty much the same way as that did JerryLee fucked around with this message at 18:30 on Nov 8, 2019 |

it was super weird when WOTC previewed a cool product people would want to buy. so it makes sense that they would clarify that it’s not really available only after they’ve built up a ton of hype

I don’t see this on Maro’s tumblr, so either he answered the ask and then deleted it or it’s a joke. He’s got another post saying the store edition replacement will be announced Monday, so I’m going with the latter e:fb

Did Shahar think the tribal -3/-3 was a bomb? I don't understand locking in to blue black so early at all. Rightly punished later ofc.

Did they release the MC meta yet? Are we 60+% Oko decks?

Lone Goat posted:loving the shade Ben is putting on commander for driving up the price of legacy cards This is sad but understandable. I'm eyeing my exit from Modern right now, because if it becomes the new Legacy that only gets to fire once a month or less I'll just go with Pioneer as my preferred format. Fetches are already down a bit off their peak, with the only reason I can think of being their eternal support is softening a bit.

Casual 63% Food. That's worse than Caw-Blade, or any other format boogeyman you care to name.

It's loving astounding. Just admit you hosed up! We all know that you did already! It's not news! They'd rather let their premiere event look like utterly stultifying garbage than just do a ban that we all already know is totally unavoidable

Yeah I mean we’ve been kind of braying about it for a while but this might be the worst Standard... ever

# ? Nov 8, 2019 20:26 |

You will still find folks out there that think that standard doesn't need any bans.

If you offered me over/under 50% that they ban goose/wolf/nissa/some combination instead, I'd take under, but just barely

I understand not wanting to make another B&R for Oko like a week after the B&R for Field of the Dead because they don't want to monkey wrench this MC prep, but why on loving Earth are they waiting another week after this MC to announce a ban instead of the day after??
