But we have cards like Riding the Dilu Horse, cards with exert mechanic etc. Those are logistical nightmare and a failure at design, but with proper physical representation on the battlefield they would be interesting addition to the game (although non-permanents adding keywords to permanents undermines the existence of auras and equipment).</blockquote> Dude read my comment again I already said these cards are based on what they see rather than permanent (however the delve one is permanent) I’m not saying the mechanics were based on those I’m saying they probably making a permanent version

Quote from Rosy Dumplings »My initial gut reaction is that keyword tokens create memory problems as they aren't easily symbolized by non-counter means in the way that dice can symbolize +1/+1 or -1/-1 counters... ...and then I remember that my playgroup can routinely remember that a dorito is an eternalized Adorned Pouncer and distinguish it from a soldier token being represented by a marble. Probably not the end of the world.

Quote from SavannahLion »Not sure who else makes playmats besides the crummy Chinese knockoffs from AliBaba. Inked Gaming perhaps?

I really only want two out of the seven. The rest are kind of meh for me. But why, why do they sell them only in bundles? This is just stupid. :/Not entirely sure why on the initial reasoning either. I just know they have said things like in the following attachementThis just makes it more confusing. So artists will have their own playmats for sale? Do they really expect people to "go in with friends" while the artwork is in so different style than usual? I have no idea why. Perhaps this was something agreed with the artists.

Quote from Ryperior74 »Quote from migrena »<insert picture of captain Ahab hunting for whales with MaRo face photoshopped over his> WotC is lately trying to introduce products which only aim to syphon as much money from the playerbase as possible. Mythic editions, lairs, mystery boosters, those use the same "suprise mechanic" to do this. I'm disgusted by that blatant cash grab and my hopes that supplemental products from next year will be good for players (reprints of chase cards to increase staples availability due to lowering prices) are more or less dead. https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/big-things-are-coming-commander-2020-2019-10-30 It’s a commander set coming next year “command legends” I think we are gonna see the most amazing reprints and new cards there there’s 70 new legendaries (it’s give or take but about down in the middle of never gotten a Card old lore legends/new legends/2.0 legendaries who have a card already) And on top of that the next from the vault it’s commander focused with green commander staples we believe chord of callingis one of the, based on one of the pictures And to go even further than that 9 commander decks for commander 2020 Commander 2020 and Ikoria lair of behemoths are coming out at the exact same time because the Ikoria themed decks (just like throne of eldraine did) they are commander decks instead and they’re 5 of them again 71 new cards most out of all commander sets Then in re-re return to zendikar 2 commander decks there it’s almost all reprints in those Then another 2 decks in commander legends same as zendikar mostly reprints

Quote from thatmarkguy »(...) WotC might now deliberately withhold reprints from randomized sets to make secondary market prices go up so they can issue high dollar value reprints direct.
