Nov 30, 2017Tiro of Meletis posted a message on If You Can't Take Criticism of Jeremy Hambly, You're Part of the ProblemActually, this article is the entire problem. Neo-Nazis? Really? Way to buy into propaganda. And the Trump reference about "locker room talk" - way to push your political agendas on a card game forum and assume your opinions are the status quo, and the only right way to think. That's why everyone is sick of liberals and SJWs. Arrogance and ignorance. No one gives a damn bro, we're here for card games. Get over yourselves and off your righteous soapbox.Posted in: Articles

I don't suspect this product will take away from any of that, but it does feel jarring. MTG has been very elastic in recent years, back and forth with alarming upheavals and controversy.
That said, a Multiverse would not excuse what is transpiring here. I'll maintain an open mind but the outrage is justified.
"For draft!"
I just hope they select an IP I'd be interested in.
Frankly I just wanted a Water World from the shortlist and more Blue and Blue/Green lands that depict oceanic biomes (coral reefs, kelp forests, hydrothermal vents, shipwrecks, etc.) which evidently is too outrageous for creative to implement. Return to Kamigawa, a MTG IP, is unfathomable. A sea monster Gishath-level commander - unlikely. But UB is perfectly acceptable. It's this concept that bothers me more than crossovers. That reasonable, in-house or on-theme requests are unobtainable.
I'll just keep an open mind and let people enjoy the game their way. It's probably their way of bringing people into MTG and isn't much different from Oricas. The game is already making records though, but I guess it's all about new boundaries. We'll see...
This has potential to be good or bad. Right now it leans more toward the latter. I am not sure what to make of it really. At this point the Theros gods might as well have literally been the Greek pantheon exactly.
But if we can have our cake and eat it too, as in this does not decrease MTG IP but supplements it, there are quite a few crossovers I would love. So far DND, Warhammer and even LOTR doe not interest me. No, as a pre-season 8 fan of GOT that crossover wouldn't either. Some of those that would I am not sure if MTG will consider. Like getting AVATAR/Pandora themed lands for example.
That Silverquil leader guy, oh yaaass henny
Love the Japanese artwork. If we get the snowy Mt. Fuji/Kyoto art I will cry with joy
The Theros pre-release kits, fat packs and theme boosters had these gorgeous saturated cards. So I had the agonizing goal of getting all cards from those sources before booster boxes were opened, and the market became flooded with pale, sun-bleached and flimsy looking cards. The cards from Theros boxes looked horrible.
Ugh just ban Oko in Commander.
