Saskia doesn’t look as cool as the original. Narset looks pretty much the same in all her art (which is a good thing for consistency but makes this feel less special). Having Meren’s dragon cropped out is a major downgrade. Sisay looks just as interchangeable as ever.
Oona’s art is pretty neat.
All in all, the art wouldn’t sell this for me. Pretty good choices in characters but the cards don’t feel particularly special. But hey, buy for charity not for quality I guess.
Waiting for the fatigue to wear off. Until that happens I think I’ll be pretty overly critical of these kinds of things.
Man, they really arent taking their foot off the gas on this release schedule, are they?
1 major set release, one silver boarded supplement, and two rounds of secret lair drops already released this year, with another supplemental product and another secret lair drop announced, all before the end of February.

Hell of a pace they're setting.
Four SL drops in four months makes the release schedule fairly predictable, no?
Nice art. Only female character I care for is Thassa and I got that one. Glad to skip this drop. I’m sure there will be many, many more regardless.
I want men tbh. Would love some more Cynthia Shepherd art. A Jace Secret Lair would be amazing. But everyone will expect JTMS which is a bit lame. I suppose that would be a signature spell book though if it were Jace on typical blue spells again. Not that I would mind.
While I do think Captain Sisay is actually the stronger legend, EDH-wise, I'm surprised she's the one who got the reprint here, and not the more recent Sisay, Weatherlight Captain - which was certainly printed to please EDH fans who were bummed being stuck in only two colors with Sisay.
If they dont do one for international MENs Day i file a sexual harassment campaign against them.
I mean, releasing a Drop on every day of the year except March 8 would be a lot though.
Seriously though, International Men's Day is actually a thing, so maybe WoTC will. But even if they don't, I'm not so insecure in my masculinity that I feel threatened when women get honored.

Who here is insecure? Pointing out an observable bias be it based on race, sex, gender, political etc etc has nothing to do with insecurity dude so I dont know why that would even be an idea or a point of debate at all.

There’s an inherent insecurity when a privileged class cries foul over the empowerment of an otherwise marginalized group. It’s a perceived zero-sum game: in order for your rights and prerogatives to be advanced, mine must be diminished. Since people in general are loathe to concede their privileged status, the inevitable reaction is to preserve the status quo, often under the misguided veil of equality (not to be confused with equity) or, in this case, reverse sexism. Of course there’s nothing equal or equitable about the 364 other days on which we don't celebrate 50% of our population, or the 11 (10?) months that we ignore the history of every non-white culture. Observable bias indeed.
Buy the product. Dont ask questions or make observations. If you dont buy this product youre a misogynistic sexist bigot point blank period. As a matter of fact you have to order two sets now for even hinting that they did this out of greed. Keep at it and we'll make you get three so I'd just stop right there and start ordering if I were you.

You don’t have to rapid fire these
But some of these females are good choices
Only mistake is either avacyn should have Ben here
They'll save her and the Akromas for next year's IWD.

Fully half the price is going to charity, though.
