Nov 8, 2015Kuberr posted a message on The Magic Street Journal: How to Handle "That Guy"This article was a difficult read for me, and I constantly lost my focus after a few sentences in each paragraph. It would have helped for me if you summarized a bit more and be a bit less poetic in your writing. I'm saying this because I care about this topic but after reading I was confused rather than enlightened. I just dind't get the point of many attempts of you making a point. It's ok if your writing style doesn't match my reading skill.Posted in: Articles

"...Then, just as I was about to slay the second monster, something extraordinary happened."
The actual Godzilla card, which is the buy a box promo card, cannot be found in the box toppers. It is handed out by LGS. I think a nonfoil version of this card can be found in the collector boosters.
Today, I feel completely overwhelmed with the amount of different printings and promo's of cards. The collector boosters were the final nail in the coffer for me to consider "collecting" anything in the current magic franchise. My problem is not that I'm unable to collect every single magic card. My problem also doesn't lie with the consequence that some cards are (very) expensive - the general consencus seems to be that the price of "normal" cards found in booster is significantly lower due to all the exclusive stuff. My problem lies with the dilution of tradeability of collectible cards. Imagine you're the proud owner of 4 Thassa, Deep-Dwelling. When trying to trade them away you suddenly have to take into account that some players only want the showcase version, or that others definitely don't want that ugly planeswalker symbol of the promo packs. Oh, and they all have different prices of course.
I would suggest to remove some of the clutter by introducing these changes:
This implies that special promos such as the ugin's fate promos, the Japanese anime planeswalker the stain-glass planeswalker cards or more recently the godzilla card can remain as is, as a one time gimmick.
The end result would satisfy my collector's itch and still cater to Wizards's desire to be able to sell exclusive items

Ignore indstructible on all permanents. If a permanent with indestructible would be destroyed or receive lethal damage, regenerate it.
When Enforcer of Honorable Combat enters the battlefield, ask each player whether they prefer to be adressed as he, she or in another nonbinary way. Ignore all manners of addressing written on all cards and use the preferred way instead.
3/2
Enforcer of Single Perfection - 1UU

If a legendary permanent card would enter the battlefield, if another permanent with the same name is already on the battlefield, put that card into its owner's graveyard instead.
0/5
Enforcer of Brutal Torment - 1BB

If a player would take damage, instead that player loses that much life.
Creatures with menace become black, gain fear, and can be blocked as if they didn't have menace.
2/1
Enforcer of Crackling Mana - 1RR
Creature - Avatar (R)
If mana would be added for a player, it is added to that player's mana pool instead. At the end of each step and phase, for each player, remove all mana from their mana pool and Enforcer of Crackling Mana deals 1 damage to them for each mana removed this way.
4/1
Enforcer of the Old Ways - 1GG

Planeswalkers have hexproof. If a planeswalker's controller receives noncombat damage, the source of that damage may choose to redirect that damage to that planeswalker.
2/4
I agree looking at and shuffling multiple libraries is tedious, so I'm positioning this card for playgroups were most people know each other's libraries and cards. A fix could be that you are allowed to search exactly one player's library instead of all.
Coalescence - 2U
Enchantment - R
If you would search a library, you may search all players' library instead. If you do, shuffle any libraries searched this way.
If a card you don't own would be put into your graveyard, hand or library, exile it instead. You may play that card for as long as it remains exiled.
Auradiate - 3WW
Enchantment - R
Whenever you cast an aura spell, you may search your graveyard, hand and library for any number of cards with the same name as it and put them on the battlefield. If you search your library this way, shuffle it.
Colt47 said you can get ful playsets for the price of a CASE. A case is 6 boxes and they're usually around $480-$540. So no massive profits there...
Uncommon
Good luck!
The name already exists though: Volcanic Fallout
Have you considered using the vanishing or fading keyword for this card?
Also, losing abilities for creatures is a bit weird. Why do I lose trample when there's ash? I would rather say "abilities cannot be activated", I think you're aiming more for a "creatures cannot do anything useful" vibe.
Letting creatures not attack or do anything is more in white and blue's part of the oclor pie instead of in red and black. I would consider making this is a grixis or mardu card instead.
Legendary Land
T: Roll a six sided dice.
This card is not to be taken too seriously. There's lots to discuss about this card though. Please touch the following:
Curious to hear what you all think
I found a prerelease tamiyo with number 434
and there are also plenty of normal non foil ones with 434, a number you say you're missing
