I guess Avaricious Dragon was always Bonehoard Dracosaur at home lol.

No I just don’t want to argue with you. I honestly shouldn’t have responded to your first comment. I am just sick of hearing the same six talking points every time some UB thing is spoiled. It’s getting really old at this point and not adding anything to the conversation.

The map token does have the Oracle text for explore! I didn’t notice it wasn’t on the map producers, though. That could maybe be a little problematic for some people.

lol sure

Except it doesn’t, because LOTR was specifically designed to have some cards that could be played in modern (something which WOTC was up front about).

I could just see playing both TBH. This is nice in helping blue do it’s artifact stuff. @ravnic @Onderzeeboot this seems like a nice Ninja enabler for you guys!

Except you totally can. The only UB set that has had a major impact in constructed so far is The Lord of the Rings thanks to The One Ring, Bowmasters, and the Monarch cards. You don’t really need to worry about these cards until someone does well with them in a tournament, and given the low...

You think this is a meme Colossal Dreadmaw factory, until you realize you can copy Archon of Cruelty with this and get one of those every turn. Very nice design, thank you WOTC.

My number one prediction for Lost Caverns of Ixalan:

Nope! We’re still less than a third (maybe even less than a quarter) of products being UB releases. I don’t think we’re ever going to get to that point if I’m being honest— between the premier sets and extra stuff like master’s products, normal magic is too popular in its own right to turn it...

I don’t think Magic has a particularly high player turnover rate (at least in paper). I think the goal is to get more people invested in the game so more people will stay and play.

Traps are the only other real option I believe. They aren’t as popular as cascade, but something representing a trap would make sense in this setting… …the Journey to the Center of the Earth Plane Dinosaur Fungus Frenemy Furry Epic Minecraft Gamer 420 (Blaze It!) Setting…

Oh god this is going to be a Minecraft set XD

I'm going to post the part of the original video where Mark Rosewater and Mike Turian are discussing complexity for newer players here. I think this is really important for Cube designers to watch. I think Mark says it best: "We've spent years and years trying to figure out how to make a good...

I'm going to post this here because I accidentally made the discussion about words and complexity spill over into two threads (sorry everyone, I was just trying to link back to the original conversation), but I want everyone to hear what Mark Rosewater and Mike Turian have to say about the...

There were several other cards for popular characters in those starter decks, such as Aragorn and Arwen, Gandalf, and Sauron, the Lidless Eye, all of which were better than Gollum. In fact, I think he's probably the second worst of the eight new legendary creatures in the product! The only thing...

Is one thing every month really crammed from a release standpoint? I feel like most Magic products can be safely ignored except for Standard sets and Horizons sets if they're not interesting to a given person.

The Cheeky Token Deck gets another new toy!

Wake up babes, it's spoiler time! I'm a big fan of this Junk Token mechanic. Mothman? Mothman. I like the Radiation mechanic as well.

I mean, there are a couple of vanilla creatures that are "interesting" because they have unique or pushed stat lines (Isamaru, Hound of Konda, Gigantosaurus, Catacomb Crocodile, Yargle and Multani, and so on), but they are the exceptions that prove the rule. Most vanilla creatures are...
