Remember back when people complained that this card was out of place in MtG? If we'd only known how bad it would get...
>>97106082DnD 5e proved to WotC that their customers are retards who will buy literal garbage. Can't blame a corporation for making money off retards.
It's been this bad since Kamigawa Neon Dynasty came out. Really, Kaladesh was the first set that really seemed out of place, but people incapable of nuance will point to Urza and his golems and pretend it's the same thing, so it's not worth having that conversation. Also Innistrad, which was the first set to really try to imitate specific tropes since Kamigawa, but it was a definite change from previous sets. But honestly, Kamigawa Neon Dynasty was what cinched it. Cyberpunk bullshit opened the door for sci-fi secret lairs, bullshit like Fallout being introduced to Magic when it has nothing to fucking do with high fantasy, just flooding the fucking game with Universes Beyond shit that ruined the game. Let me be very clear: If you support, endorse, or defend Universes Beyond, you deserve to be killed. Full stop. >lmao bro stop taking a card game so seriouslyShut the fuck up faggot. You people take everything decent and enjoyable and ruin it. You low effort soi freak consumers. Genuinely end your life if you bought ANY of these cards.>b-b-b-but muh superior japanese animations I loved as a childKill yourself. Fuck you, fuck Final Fantasy and every single gape-mouthed twat who bought it. I genuinely do not see you as human. Last time I went to the FLGS it was actually during the fucking Avatar prerelease which meant the store was full of loud fat fucks and by the time I left it was breaking up and they were heading home. One of them couldn't get his car to start. I had jumper cables but I just fucking left, because fuck those people. I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. You can blame Wizards of the Coast for making this shit, but the real responsibility lays with you cocksuckers who buy it. Fuck you. Fuck all of you. I hope your kids end up in the fucking Make-A-Wish program. Rot in hell.
>>97106335>getting this bent out of shape on an indonesian canoe chiseling forum over a children's card gameHoly kek.
People have been complaining about what "fit" in MTG since MTG started.Aladdin as a card.Cao Cao as a card.Demonic imagery on a card.Two loser's milquetoast D&D campaign as a whole fucking set.Guns, Robots, Magitech, Women, Fat Women, Grandmas; there's been people who've loudly complained about all of these, and you think that complaining about baseball bats or ramen or bagels is where Wizards now has to actually stop and listen to the whiners?
>>97106082Planeswalkers existed long before that baseball did.
>>97106082The problem with MTG is the people running it don't care about it and see it as a "brand" to push everywhat they want it. What's worse is people still buy it. I think we see MTG become the same as Lego and Fortnite. A brand that houses other IP in it over it's own brand. So people will be playing their FF, TMNT, SF, cards over the sets cards outside of some powerhouse cards or going for cheap cards.
>>97106335Holy meds
>>97106711Shut the fuck up retard. You're posting here too. I'm sure you're just doing it out of ironic detachment or whatever. I don't give a fuck. This game used to have soul in it, it used to be well made with beautiful art. It was a great game, and it's been shit on by a pack of fucking retards. Sorry for caring. No, actually, I'm not sorry. I'm not going to apologize for actually giving a fuck about something, instead of being some jaded fucking fag who just hates everything because it makes him look cool to the zero other people who read his post outside of this place. What the fuck are you trying to accomplish? Just pissing on anyone who is passionate about something? Go fuck yourself retard. You're a soulless fucking ghoul who has nothing to offer.>b-b-b-but I make my own gamesAnd they're dogshit. No one plays them. >b-b-b-but muh argumentum ad populumIf they were good, people would play them.You are shit and have nothing to offer but laughing like a diabetic jackal at people who actually create things and enjoy them. You do neither. You just sit here and jerk off to other people being disappointed by seeing the game they loved go to shit. You're a fucking vulture. Magic used to be a good game but retards ruined it and you just sit there and laugh. What do you enjoy, faggot? Let me know, so I can come ruin it too, then laugh at you while you pretend not to be mad about it.
What card lets me flip the game table over and light the mother fucker im playing against on fire
>>97106335Based and righteous.
>>97106335Holy based. Light those mother fuckers on fire. Final fantasy and anime are trash
>>97106335Insanely based. The ones who destroyed dark fantasy must be burned alive and their skin flayed while they still feel pain.
I like (some) UB and magic would’ve died without it. UB has added interesting mechanics like the bending elements. Also standard with seasons is a shit format and I’m glad commander is more popular as it’s more fun. Sorry mtg boomers your basic bitch elves, dragons, mermaids and vampires DnD rip-off card game is actually fun now.

>>97106335>Kaladesh was the first set that really seemed out of placeHello zoomie>Let me be very clear: If you support, endorse, or defend Universes Beyond, you deserve to be killed. Full stop.I'm deeply upset that this hobby that was such a focal point of my life has gone to shit and I really can't engage with it anymore, but that's unfortunately how things go.
Theres a cocomelon mtg deck coming in 2026
>>97106082>"back then">one year agoAnyone worth a damn left the game way before that
>>97108449>Hello zoomieI'm 32. You missed the part where I said Innistrad was the harbinger of it all.
>>97106082Those people are clearly retarded because Lucille was released in 2020 and Ace's Baseball Bat on 2023. They waited until this one in 2024?You don't pay attention to the game, dumb fuck
>>97107862Try harder.
>>97110611Nobody gives a shit about proxies.
>>97106335Kaladesh worked as "World of Tomorrow", as the name is, and while it was literally a shit set, the setting wasn't that terrible. Did it not fit extremely well with the rest of the multiverse? Certainly, but it worked for what it was. There is so much wrong with the block mechanically, and that should be addressed. It's honestly the first really shit set, and while not FIRE design, it was NWO. The only saving grace to that entire block was Dominaria came after it. With Garfield on the design team, its honestly one of the best sets of the modern era, and would been better had Lightning Bolt and Counterspell been in it than Wizard's Lightning and Wizard's Retort. Everything else is honestly correct. Anime art cards were a mistake (this includes that duel deck), alternative chase variants were a mistake, Brady Walkers were a mistake. >couldn't get car to startHe should have had a jump box.
>>97106715>Alladin as a cardPeople in 93/94 absolutely loved Arabian Nights, and it sold out extremely quickly. People also loved when it was later merged into the larget MTG Multiverse. Anyone that joined later just thought of the cards as "early adaption weirdness" for the lack of a better description. >Three KingdomsWhen Portal was released, they weren't even considered the same game. Portal had its own separate rules from the MTG rules at the time. Portal cards also weren't legal for constructed play, and I remember, because I bought some portal 2, and was told at the LGS (and by my older brother) that I wasn't allowed to play with them after the fact.>Demonic imageryActually this one came from WotC themselves. They couldn't get a loan to do a second print run of Legends because the game 'was to controversial' and the loaner thought it was a risky investment. So it was immediately decided by Adirkson to tone down the imagery. >D&D CampaignAre you talking about Legends, The Homelands, or Zendikar?If you're talking about Legends, you know less that jack shit about how Legends came to be (hint: Ice Age was supposed to be the Summer 1994 set, which would kick off a new game). >GunsEveryone thought P2 guns were cool, and lore discussion in the forums always included discussions on how well that small island did against the phyrexians. >RobotsThe Creature type? Gay. Steam powered mech, and golems? Awesome.>women, fat women, grandma'sHoly retarded batman. Who gave a shit about Irini Sengir, Grandmother Sengir, or a slew of other fat broads?Now go back to playing EDH you fucking secondary.
>>97111845Are you genuinely a retard?Some people liking things is not the same as everyone liking things, and you liking stuff does not preclude people complaining about stuff. Every single thing mentioned has had very vocal complainers, even if the vast majority of players did not say anything about them. Not unlike how some people cried about Ramen, when FF was still one of the best selling sets in recent memory.
>>97111874Yeah secondaries that came in years later.Fuck if it wasn't for EDH, P3K would have remained a weird trivia piece, Fuck P3k wasn't even supposed to have an English release, thank you fucking Australia. I see you don't know jack shit about Legends.Fuck you could have talked about actual complaints from the fanbase over the last 30 years instead of Mark Rosewaters opinions like guns are bad.
>>97111874Also chinese bots buying product to resell them to other chinese bots don't count as sales to people who aren't NPC's.
