At least some remnant Eldrazi would have been nice. My interest is waning.
Do you want WotC to commit suicide? Because, seriously, a whole bunch of fans would tear them to shreds if they saw even a single eldrazi in this set. I'm afraid you're going to have accept the fact that you are going against the grain here.
I agree. I can't imagine anything I would be more critical about than that.
In the past, 1 in every 8 rares was a mythic rare. Starting with Zendikar Rising, that will be changing so that 1 in every 7.4 rares will be a mythic rare. This will also be true of Draft Boosters.
Just highlighting this. Slipped that one in under the radar in the mothership article.
I wonder what prompted them to make this change?
I would guess maybe the sheer number of high-dollar Mythics they’ve created over the past few years has prompted them to make them a little less rare.
I'm glad it's only one set. Battle and Oath are the worst Magic sets i've ever seen.
They’re pretty bad, but both Theros sets are abysmal from a power level perspective.
The original Theros set was one of the worst since like Prophecy,
though the Mythics helped it a bit.
Hopefully we won't see another simic broken card, can't even play arena right now, thanks to temur reclamation shenenigans
Oh boo hoo... Simic suffered through almost 20 years of total irrelevance after the original flash in the pan, GU Madness. God forbid we actually have the most broken card in a few formats for once. Oko, Uro, and Krasis are the harbingers of a less *****ty Simic to come, and I strongly dislike how they’ve been singled out for hating on.
They seem to like Long Term Plans these days—
sort of like how we have 2-3 cards from Double Masters even though it’s still a ways off.
It releases in less than a month.
Yeah, but we got the first card spoils like a month ago,
with no new info since then (aside from the possible leak).
My point was that nowadays, they seem to like giving a tiny taste of spoilers for sets that won’t be out for a couple of months.
It’s probably their way of combatting the Covid blues.
