Re: Mystery Booster Foils

Being able to have pulled a non-foil Intruder Alarm or Amulet of Vigor would've been nice. But no they had to only be available in foil because Wizards of the Coast is greedy. So unless you're guaranteed 1 foil per booster pack then it might not be a problem but If the pull rates for foils in Myste...

Re: March 2020 AMA

Do you ever worry that WotC is using certain things (brawl, internet polls, etc) to try and get more direct control over the Commander format by swaying popular opinion or using products to raise questions about why EDH is the way it is?

Re: Secret Lair: International Women's Day

Moreover, if they are giving half of the money to the charity it means that they are planning to still cut a pretty decent profit from this. Which means they aren't even slightly interested in the charity, they just put it there for PR and to boost sales. I'm not going to bother to address the rest...

Re: [???] Oubliette

An off-color ability with a very wordy card, even with template changes? Even in a non-Standard set, I'd be amazed to see that again as a common.

It also occurred to me last night that another distressing possibility is that this appears in an upcoming Secret Lair.

[???] Oubliette

Oubliette has been confirmed as a reprint in an upcoming product. Not sure which, but either Mystery Booster or Commander Legends seems the most likely possibility.

Oh boy, $40 of cards for $40 plus shipping. Glad they don't give a damn about making things affordable.

Re: The Future of Paper Magic by Saffron Olive

To be honest, an LGS that pinned their entire financial structure on one game almost deserves to get shut down.

There ARE other games than Magic out there. And you don't need online sales to stay afloat, either, you just need to diversify your focus instead of going all-in on one game.

Re: Secret Lair

Eldraine Wonderland is a great value, idk why people don't think $30 for five snow basics is a good price. I'm definitely buying it! Can't wait to use the sleeve, it's really pretty. Alayna Danner is the best land artist right now. Who cares that the Bitterblossom one only has one actual card? It's...

Re: Open Mystery Booster thread

Saw a solicit for Mystery Booster. It will be 24 packs to a display, release date 3/13/2020. No idea of the price yet.

Playtest card being replaced with a foil from an added list of 121 cards is interesting, though.

Re: Weekly Stream UnSanctioned Unbattle box and more

I just heard from somebody which saw twitch or twitter whichever The mystery booster thing is connected to a supplement set and is connected to commander I saw the twitch stream for this. There was no indication of this. All we know about the mystery set is that it won't have Reserve List cards in ...

Re: [C19] Commander '19 Preview Panels Thread

Did they say the planeswalkers in the deck are going to be allowed as commanders, or just included in the deck?

I think Narset would work for Flashback.

Re: [ELD] Rosewater Panel at SDCC

I wonder if the Eldraine storyline takes place concurrent to War Of The Spark. I'm just amazed it's not infested with Gatewatch.

Re: The Wanderer

Didn't some of the other planeswalkers in the War novel recognize her, as if they'd met before? I don't remember who exactly, but I think Sorin was one of them.

Re: New Sol Ring Promo

Would be nice if it was attainable outside of MagicFests or paying a ridiculous amount on the secondary market.
