  • Honestly, that’s great that you enjoy them! I think the negativity is the sets aren’t self-contained. Once they’re released, they’re a part of magic and the eternal formats forever. Especially for those who have played for decades, that identity shift of the game is jarring.



  • While I don’t feel as negatively about these sets as the other poster, the attempt to be “flashy” strikes me the wrong way. Even though it’s been years now, I feel the same was true for the sets you listed in your response.

    I understand that they’re trying to market to a broad audience and generate hype for cool new worlds / themes / crossovers, but I’d prefer if the sets were slower and we spent more time on each plane.

    I realize this topic has been beaten to death and I have a bit of old man bias with this, but I’m not thrilled that trend is continuing.
