If they want to reprint reserved list cards they can just add an extra line of text to any of those cards. It's a bummer for those who want to play Vintage, but it's not like there's actual creative blockers from them reprinting em'. They could, tomorrow, print:quote:Badderlands, Mountain/Swamp: or quote:Gaea's Bosom, Legendary Land

Mat Cauthon posted:If they start printing Reserve List cards (or functional reprints with slight tweaks) that opens to the door to the conversation of why can't WOTC just reprint enough of every expensive card to bring costs down and make the game more accessible to new players, or even just shift to direct sales and custom ordering through whatever subsidiary or partner. These doors are not only open but has been pretty much nonstop discussed since forever ago. & it does seem like they've actually done a good job with this as of late. My mental calendar slots it as to when we got the Damnation reprint as to when a very long dry spell for competitive cards finally started seeing reprints again.

Feels like a flavor fail that Blood costs one mana and not life. Have to imagine the original text had life payment instead and it got changed after they'd cemented the card name.

Magic Art got good again in the past few years. Felt kinda stagnant/blah for a lot of the 2010's, but man every new set has some great work in it. Special/alt cards included and aside.

It's hilarious they didn't even bother giving him any of those abilities, so unless you have other creatures he comes down as a vanilla 3/3. idk, maybe blood will prove super powerful tho.

As someone that's played w/ silver border cards in cubes and casual decks for years now, sure why not. Still, kind of a bummer as the silver border looks beautiful. Love love this art, but the border is definitely dropping the ball for that flat retro feel. quote:galaxy foil (the foil looks like stars in space; we aren't showing it off today but will show it off as we get closer to Unfinity's release) lol, is mtg finally going to embrace Pokemon style foils?

The good news is it's an Alchemy card so they can just keep changing it until morale improves.

Possibly my favorite old card, if only because I totally played with this specific version of the card that omitted the 'until end of turn'. So, naturally, I'd play this and it'd grow by 3 power every turn til I could swing in with a big boy.

It's still funny to me that YuGiOh and Pokemon both screwed themselves over early by making a major subset of cards free-to-play. Gotta get those cost systems in. Hadn't heard of Welder, but it's especially funny that the extra 'cost' of that card is also a bonus thing that accelerates you two turns. In MTG terms this is like a 0 cost spell that reads: "Add RR. If you do, draw three cards." Love it. CatstropheWaitress fucked around with this message at 03:37 on Jan 3, 2022 |

Perry Mason Jar posted:Although it's easily fixed by changing "feminism and healthcare" to "population control" which was the actual topic but naturally they couldn't admit to that so they went with bullshit instead. Oh I recognize this rabbit hole you're hinting at. Chatted at length with some anti-vaxxers for awhile as it became apparent it was the root of their belief system. For those spared of that line of thought it goes: "Bill Gates has talked about how overpopulation will be a problem -> therefore he wants there to be less people -> which will be done via killing people -> which will be done putting chemicals in the water, chem trails, 5G, vaccines, etc. etc." Granted, I'm not saying Perry believes all that, but that's one road where those bread crumbs go. It's dumb, but hey, people need movie villains. Anyhoo, anyone drafted Kamigawa yet virtually? Seems like it'd be a blast, though I'm curious how complicated it gets with all the cards with twenty subtypes. CatstropheWaitress fucked around with this message at 22:20 on Feb 8, 2022 |

The entitlement from that "New MTG Project" is bewildering. It's so wild to see someone blatantly say: hey I'm going to try to make a profit off a major corp's IP, and then act disappointed when said major corp slaps them down. Heck, their site openly flaunts the idea that they'd make enough $$ off this to buy Magic from Wizards of the Coast. CatstropheWaitress fucked around with this message at 03:32 on Feb 15, 2022 |

HootTheOwl posted:At the time of posting the professor's deck box has raised $796,015. 900k now. Honestly, good for him, why not. I like the banner on his landing image that says "Funded in 17 minutes!". Great great call not announcing the stretch goals to start so they can move those goal posts. That press-release is hilarious imo. And the notion makes enough sense. "Enjoy this theme that swaps out drugs for candy, but try to keep it relatively kid friendly" is the same kind of thing you get with kids playing pirates. Or that whole musical, Bugsy Malone where a bunch of kids are mafia members who throw pie to off one another. Could have been worded better, but ah well. Amusing to read as is.
