It is still a better Magic set than all the UB slop and hat sets from the last 5 years. At least it had E S S E N C E

Good.
I feel this is a good thing, we're full and most veteran MtG players like me want this set to flop for the good of the game

I refuse to build anything from it out of principle and ideological purity, yet this "Shadow Wizard Money Gang"-coded maniac keeps calling me like the f'n green goblin mask, help ;_;

It is just a bunch of secret lairs of reskins if the leaks are reliable, but at least that means less mechanichally unique UB cards to swallow

Probably not. I hang out in a few ATLA fandom spaces online and there is barely even a blip about this set

Haven't gone to one, never will.
Not feeding the maws of the UB slop machine.

He made tea from the wrong flower again 🥀

"Turning a big dial taht says "Powercreep" on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant in "the price is right"" is probably an apt job description for WOTC's design staff

Yeah. I guess rhe issue comes from me, with all the sudden awful changes and announcements I have become more and more extreme in where I stand and I was expecting almost that others did the same
Hell I even built an EDH deck designed to bully players with UB commanders

Ok, I get that. I am frustrated because I felt that prof could be that opposition voice for the community and I felt frustrated at thinking that he'd not be that for us.

IDGAF about this set, but I've heard white is probably the strongest in the set not just for the removal, it has very strong aggressive creatures too

Prof's glazing of this set has tanked all of his credibilidad as a """critical voice"""

??
Care to explain?

Well it seems the tides have turned on you.
I do wonder how many dislikes your WOTC paid puff piece has gotten, probably a lot based on the comments here hehe

Do you ever feel any remorse or shame about being such a shill for WOTC?
Or have you really drank your own kool-aid about "being a critical voice of WOTC"??
Either way, pathetic
You've disappointed the wider community of enfeanchised players

They always do that. He wants to frame it as "this extremist blocked me for disagreeing over a card getting banned! What a petty evil snowflake!!" And completely leave out and ignore the context of his other beliefs

Don't smear me like that, i love strip mine and I'm not a chud 😭
