Because I have enjoyed this game for nearly 30 years and it absolutely sickens me to see how WotC completely sold out and is making it a sad incoherent mockery of it's former self in the matter of only a couple of years. Some people actually care about staying true to the original nature and aesthetics of the game instead of sheepishly cheerleading everything.
First dozens of Secret Lairs that don't even resemble Magic anymore, then freaking stickers, Space Marines, now Transformers and Dr flippin' Who due next. It's the whole floodgate of patheticness that has been opened so far added up. They shouldn't force people to have to deal with this outside IP bs. It will not bring good things to playing tables and the divide that will happen is on Wizards.
Not that I should require to explain these quite obvious things to anyone, but that would be it.
The problem is that mostly every commander apart from abaddon is just a insult, like the official price is 50 euro but they charge for dominaria united commander decks with better cards just 37 euro. The worst thing is that they ghosted the fans for 3 months without spoiling anything or even saying anything. And the same is true for unfinity. It feels like they never cared about it at all
You seem to already know the cards in the 40K decks to proclaim them worse than the Dominaria decks. Please do enlighten us?
The art book coming later this year confirms that Jaya will be compleated, also, I see I wasn't the only one who looked at the obviously-green producing land and thought Karplusan Forest is back, OMG yes please reprint the painlands, I can't wait to dust mine off for Standard play.
I highly doubt any of these sticker cards will become eternal relevant, I think this is just for the sake of commander if you play at a table that gets weird about silver borders.
I’m more curious about the reasons they didn’t include some of the cards they did open but put on the ‘not-included’ list. We know about the ones that got cancel-cultured, but some of the other ones… ? Might have to do with the rights to the art or other artist-related reasons.
I couldn't care less about the Commander Legends as I don't play Commander. Even if they are from Magic's past.
I am curious about the Legends cards put into Collector Boosters. All English language? Or a mix of languages? And I am guessing some will be in far less than mint condition.
They claim all of the cards come from Legends boxes they still had they opened for this occasion, so if that is true all cards should be in (near) mint condition.
Slivers in Dominaria United or I riot. I have a creeping suspicion they're not in there.
Slivers eat a lot of space, i guess they won't be there because they want to focus on the "coalition VS phyrexia" thing.
Unless there is a subplot of PWs recruiting the slivers in their ranks...
Or Phyrexian Slivers…
I agree they would take up too much space and we don’t want another Battle for Zendikar situation though.
Priceless treasures were definitely real. They weren’t especially printed for it. They were existing cards that Wizards gathered and dropped into the packs. I know someone who opened a very played black Mox. I don’t know what the odds were but they were very small and it was only in the first print run which was a lot smaller than today’s first print runs.
IF, and that is a very big if, this happens again the only way there would be any Reserved List cards is if they do it the exact same way. Drop existing old cards into the packs. That would be the only way to circumvent the Reserved List policy. They will not print any new RL cards.

Those decks are completely in ‘Surge foil’.
Nobody (yet) knows what ‘Surge Foil’ is though.

That is Geyadrone Dihada. Not Jaya.
A table that gets weird about silver border?
There is a good chance they will suddenly find some Antiquities boxes for the Brothers’ War.
