Why is it now that MTG """grogs""" are virtue signaling over UB as if its actually going to send a message to WotC? If you actually cared you would have been boycoting LotR and all the Theme Park slop like Neon Dynasty and the sets before and after Foundations.
>>96521667MTG is gay. Play sorcery
Because that one got a lot of Magic setting related alternates exclusively to Arena, so grogs, who only play paper, felt hurt by it.
lotr is ub slop but at least it fits with mtg astheticsspider-man is just retarded
>>96522130>mtg astheticsAh, yes, lotr fits so much better than spiderman with spaceships and racing karts
>>96521667But I did boycott LotR
>>96521667Why the fuck did they make the Spiderman set buff spiders, an already overwhelmingly strong tribal?Why not make him a mutant or superhero creature type?
>>96527017>an already overwhelmingly strong tribalt. Olle Rade
>>96527017Because he's not a mutant, dumbass
>>96521667>virtue signalingThat doesn't mean what you think it means, and we're not doing that. We're simply disgusted by UB and refuse to play with it or against it. That's all. Magic cards should only have fantasy art on them. Yes, that stupid space set and racecar set also need to go away.
>>96527017Because Johnita XirXer from the design team wanted more spider support for xer spider commander deck
>>96522696he wasn't defending EOC or Aetherdrift faggot, and both those sets came well after LOTR. If you're gonna argue in bad faith at least try be less of a retard about it.
>>96521667The grogs have been complaining since Walking Dead. The opinions of the grogs are simply irrelevant in the face of hordes of cum guzzling whales, tourists, and investorfags who will buy this shit regardless.
>>96521667I was in a relatively fashionable game shop the other day, just looking at the board games. Some young university students come in>Hi urm yeah, we wanna play Magic The Gathering what do you suggest>Have you ever played before?>No but I just pre-ordered a whole load of the Spider-man onesclerk then continues to talk about all the UB stuff, then talks about the Mad Max set, the Cowboy set, the Redwall set and "i really suggest our Commander nights, it's a greay vibe and a good way to get into Magic"so basically nothing anyone here feels matters since the MTG addicts will continue to play and bitch about it, and Hasbro are selling shitloads of cardboard to funko pop normies
>>96529512the best was when the student goes "what's that secret lair thing and why is it so expensive" with the clerk explaining that it was just 4 really expensive and rare cards for collectors and the kid goes "oh that sounds awesome"
