More complicated layout, an option to subscribe (or get a *****tier experience), the control panel/inbox are complete garbage now (pages per message? still no sorting/search). Seems like a lot of visual distraction for nothing gained (unless you pay ofc). Lame.
Or standard players could accept the fact that not everything needs to cater to them.
Standard players (because the Magic community is clearly segregated by formats..? huh..?) actually drive most of Wizard's business, and usually get shafted the most. Prices, availability, rotations, promos... they get the short end of the stick more often than not (but get more support at FNMs I suppose- but that's a silver lining).
Every other format is mostly handled on the secondary market, and don't have to deal with rotations at all really. So I can understand the disappointment when products clearly aimed at trying to be relevant fall short by a few months, etc (FNM promos are legendary for arriving a second after they were actually legal/playable).
The Magic community is a single entity, what or how you play is personal. Hating on a portion of the community because you don't perceive their issues as valid is unproductive, since their issues will probably effect everyone else in one way or another.
Anyways, I love the art, and both planeswalkers are playable. I'll grab one.
My call, though I'm not sure if it's "worth it" visually. It also looks pretty mediocre with 2 color gold cards sometimes (or black, etc). Probably the only way I kinda like the new borders though, otherwise I prefer working on pre-8th. (white text>>>>>black text)

I don't see why Bob is on everyone's reserve list though.

Reveal top 2, lose life equal to their mana cost, put them into your hand.
I doubt they'll attach a scry to a Bob effect. Having scry in the format makes it strong enough.

Skull Rend is surprisingly potent. Ofc, Smallpox/Pox/Death Cloud are all groovy.
