It's kinda funny how much better Censor plays than it looked. Cycling 1 on a force spike variant is real good.

Cycling is really good and I wish it were evergreen. Amonkhet having cycling and two flashback style mechanics has me genuinely excited to draft which hasn't been true since like I dunno RTR or something.

Variance is "I didn't expect a thing and then the thing happened and I lost." Playing to your outs is "I didn't expect a thing and then the thing happened and I won."

I talked to some TCG (not magic) designers about cycling being evergreen and their argument against was basically there's an implicit cost to putting words on cards and that cost outweighed the value for most players because most players don't want to cycle their cool card and so don't look at it as upside. I don't know that I buy this because part of that cost seems to be that it's not evergreen, and I don't know why you couldn't just stick it on various narrow answers, but there you go.

Therapy is a card I can't see wotc putting into standard again because you have to actually think about things and if you suck it feels bad.

Eh. If you miss then you at least know that they don't have the card you didn't want them to have. That's not nothing, even if you obviously didn't want to pay B and a card for it.

The flip experience is also a thing, if you're bad and don't play it and your opponent keeps hitting it's also feelbads. As far as I'm aware WotC doesn't want you to know you're bad at magic if at all possible.

I agree with all this, but I'm conflicted because if everyone thought that way and sent all their $ to alibaba instead of wotc where would we continue to get (lovely lol) new sets in the long term?

You can engage with a moba without knowing what that means though, because monsters throw magic at each other oh gosh that guy died the dude's really excited.

Magic is people moving inscrutable pieces of cardboard around and if you don't know the cardboard you're reliant 100% on the commentators to follow anything.
