    Another rare/mythic Nightmare creature makes me think we'll be seeing Ashiok take control of House Dimir in Ravnica Allegiance.

    Am I the only one who sees a sliver in the art before the eyes finally find the drake's tiny head below its feet?

    posted a message on Enough Masters Sets for a Masters Format?
    100.2a In constructed play (a way of playing in which each player creates his or her own deck ahead of time), each deck must contain at least sixty cards. A constructed deck may contain any number of basic land cards and no more than four of any card with a particular English name other than basic land cards.

    As of March 16, 2018 there will be 6 Masters Series sets:
    • Modern Masters
    • Modern Masters 2015 Edition
    • Eternal Masters
    • Modern Masters 2017 Edition
    • Iconic Masters
    • Masters 25

    Is there a viable constructed format in there?

    Quote from Sheoldred »
    I love the GDS as a source of entertainment, but I hate it as a way of selecting interns. It seems both impractical and a tad unethical to choose employees based on an online pseudo-gameshow. This seems especially evident now, as they are transparently using it to build hype first and foremost. I wish that they would just make a tournament with a small cash prize, disentangling it from hiring and allowing it to occur more regularly.
    The thing is that if you read through the legalese, WotC has no obligations with the contest and can do whatever they like. If they get halfway through and decide to drop the contest and outright hire some of the entrants they like, they can do that. If they don't want to hire anyone, they don't have to. They can let the contest go to its full conclusion, let some popular entrant with the fans win despite not being a good candidate as an employee, and still hire other people who "lost".

    But regardless of any possible outcomes as it pertains to employment, WotC gets to use any and all ideas that are legally submitted. If your idea gets used on a real card in the future, there's a record of it being your idea, which can have real value for a lot of people.

    And to be clear, they are functionally different despite having the same name and collector number.

    I'm not sure what the original source is for these images...I got them from a Discord channel that got them from elsewhere. See attachments.

    Missed opportunity for using the infinity symbol in the card's type-line.
