Quote from JinxedIdol »I’m interested to see the “full sky” with 15 gods. Seems interesting. My gripe with secret lair is just its so hard to obtain in certain regions (Philippines for example). I would either bother my friends in the US and have them bring home that bulky box, or just buy in the secondary market. But ultimately it is fine missing out on these. I just might get Purphoros as a single if someone sells them locally at a fair price.
Quote from Mishotem »Quote from Tiro of Meletis »Quote from Flamebuster »In short: War of the Spark ****ed it up for everyone and they were spooked by it. Nice to see them admitting this and are going back to the latest tried-and-true approach. This ought to be interesting moving forward. 'busterIt genuinely irks me that Greg Weisman and his incompetent trash compromised the Theros story release for us all. As if Vorthos didn’t suffer enough enduring what he did to the Bolas arc and all the characters and relationships creative worked so hard to establish. Let alone the insult to injury. I doubt this vetting process for Theros fiction was even warranted. This was a Greg weisman issue. Unless he was the author, they could have just released the Theros ebook. That said, I understand why they needed to take this approach. But if Kate Elliot and the Wildered Quest demonstrated anything, it’s that Greg was the problem, not consumer sensitivity, not the lore itself, but a horrible “author” who smashed the “novels” he “wrote” together the night before on dragon software with Junior high locker room banter in the background evidently. I'd say part of the blame goes to Weissman, but another part of the blame goes to the overreacting fans, especially the diehard fan(atics) who were up in arms about Chandra and Nissa and the issue of gay representation. You can blame Weissman for that if you want, but I'll point out that he's also the one that gave us a gay Ral Zarek and the one who had Chandra tell Nissa she loved her, even if it was retconned the next book. People massively overreacted here based on something that was NEVER confirmed.

Quote from InvictusLeon »So does anyone know where the missing gods are? Ephara and company?:frown:
Quote from Tiro of Meletis »It’s possible he’s killed and in the underworld as a dead god being punished. But the removal of the counters and the fact they’re called task counters suggests to me this is temporary but humiliating and awful for Heliod
Quote from Ryperior74 »Quote from Tiro of Meletis »When will Erebos be punished? He was even worse than Heliod Oh looking at the Elspeth alt art Unless a reverse image she’s stabbing another god so maybe Erebos as well hopefully

Quote from 5colors » Back to jokes that poor goat token isn't having any fun in the underworld no sir-y.
