@Glenn_Jones_ Functional reprint to put the card design in-universe. Wait...

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@infernoman64 Destiny!

@AliEldrazi I appreciate you saying how you feel. I'm sure it's hard to describe but hollow is a good word.

The equivalent for me is skipping the prerelease and limited RCQs. Beyond my disinterest in UB, it's the increased cost. I'm definitely not paying more for something I don't like.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@Hoods1994 @Card_Kingdom 100%. Lorwyn not being a block was a crime.

New mechanics need two sets. I really liked Warp from EoE, but it came and went.

Bloomburrow and Wilds of Eldraine would have been great 2-set blocks. I really cant think of one that wouldn't.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@CptAncapistan @Card_Kingdom Nah. I thought this too, at first. After thinking about it some more, only a couple of 3-set blocks were great. It would be cool to see a 3-set blocks again, but 2-set is the sweet spot.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@Card_Kingdom This is a fact not a hot take.

2-set blocks are needed. Everything's just settings and characters with no story. Mechanics like Warp from EoE needed more than one set.

Lorwyn flopped because it was not a block. Other sets like bloomburrow would have improved from being a block.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@IslandGoSAMe @MTGCal This is the way.

@Mengu09 Bird(s) of Paradise?!?! 👀

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@JimDavisMTG Would you agree that all magic sets are just characters and settings with no world building since moving away from blocks? For instance, Lorwyn Eclipsed was so anticlimactic because it just showed up and left without explanation; just some cards.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

This is a good point. It also relates to normal Magic sets. Since getting rid of blocks, wotc stopped telling their own stories, too. We just get a cast of characters.

BRING BACK 2-SET BLOCKS! @wizards_magic

[Saffron Olive @SaffronOlive]

I'll also say that I think it's very possible (although harder) to build a world with a Marvel set. It probably requires focusing more on a specific story rather than a huge cast of characters, but it seems like it should still work.

@caro_irl I will only if some trusted sources say the limited environment is decent. Otherwise, it will be avoided. Hasbro needs to learn monetary consequences of forcing too many products on us. I kinda hope it's terrible so I can avoid it which makes me feels bad.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@MatthewLNass @juegosindi37980 Is it coming to iOS?

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@KingCash_7191 Nah.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@jakeformayor Isnt 85% what some would make after fees anyway? Collection sellers should realize that 85% of list is the ceiling not a floor.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

@xtracombatphase I have a personal grudge against this specific card. However, I would suffer more of it to put an end to standard UB sets.

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

Probably because quick draft isnt real. 🤣

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

Why didn't i get this deck during the limited champs thing this weekend?

[Jared @GreendeckMTG]

The irony about Marvel basically being a commander set is that I don't want to taint my commander decks with marvel cards.

For standard or modern, this doesn't bother me as much, even though I don't like it.

Marvel feels infinitely better as an IP in Magic than ninja turtles

@Jonnymagic00 Only reason I'm rooting for the Knicks is because Wemby threw Brunson's 61-point game ball into the crowd.
