The people I met at MagicCon Vegas played it more like a cube though (they brought all the cards with them) rather than doing it with booster packs like in the article.

Final Fantasy has like 150+ legends, apparently. I expect this will be pretty common for UB sets where they will want to show off a lot of named characters. With 20 legends per set "legendary matters" can be interesting. With 150, not so much, at least for me.

Maybe I worded that poorly. What I was meaning that "legendary matters" cards like Jodah or Djeru and Hazoret (etc.) aren't especially interesting when most creatures are legends, because they work with everything. They are much more interesting when there are fewer legends.

Actually not this time. It was Avabruk Caretaker.

Yeah, I'm super curious to see how the play. The designs are really interesting.

So far it feels mostly like a Commander set to me, although that might partly be because there are so many legends to show off various characters. The power level seems pretty high, I'm just not sure where most stuff fits in Standard yet.

I'd say so! That's awesome.

Oh yeah, the $350 is in Canadian dollars, which I think was about $250 USD at the time.

Yeah, there are instructions, but they are pretty basics "make sure you pad the box, don't have any parts sticking out of the box" stuff like that.

I think it's going to be just Arena this time for the sake of simplicity.
