In TLA it made some sense. It was a small cast and they were the characters across their personal arcs. So Aang for example kept getting more colors. They were far from perfect but I could see what they were going for. Some didn’t make much sense like two Momos but again TLA actually doesn’t have many characters. TMNT though made the problem much worse. Having so many turtles made the IP and the game feel small. Confined. Like a copy paste button kept getting clicked. It retroactively made me find TLA feel smaller too.

Then we come to Marvel. An IP with 80,000+ characters. An endless supply. Even if they just focus on Avengers between the historic roster and villains they should be able to fill multiple sets. But they don’t do that. No instead they reuse the popular ones. We’ll get 3 ironmen, 3 thors, it is creative bankruptcy in some failed attempt to sell cards.

I hate UB. It is undeniably popular but it will be the nail in the coffin of MtG’s setting. The gay shit was another.

>When a character dies in the storyline, is that the end of card prints for them?
It depends. For typical Standard sets they usually don't make cards for dead characters, exceptions being oddball stuff like BRO with time travel shit or necromancy like Venser in ONE. Reality Fracture might have some of that too. For other sets though, anything's fair game. Tamiyo got a card in MH3 even though she's dead. Alesha got a card in Foundations even though she died ages ago.

Honestly I prefer references to deceased characters via enchantments and spells over new versions of them as creatures being printed post-mortem

One feels like their legacies are still helping the ones who have come after, the other feels a bit key-jangly and that they're hogging the attention that should belong to a new generation of characters. Not a big deal overall just something your post and cards like picrel make me think of.

2 is the second-highest number of tribal enchantments that any creature type has. Elementals have 3.

It was a completely corporate plane that didn't give a shit about it being balanced or actually interesting, and normies still ate it up like crazy. As far as I'm concerned, it's the Avatar (James Cameron) of modern magic sets.

No. The playerbase responded exactly as it should have to a set with such bad execution. Ideas are perfect until they need to be implemented, and Ikoria was a set that was all ideas no execution.

if I'm a recovering shut-in that wants to start meeting people via magic, do I just show up to an lgs when they're holding some event? I've played a lot of arena so I know the game but I don't own any physical cards or have ever played in paper
its a really stupid question but I don't want to be any more of "that guy" than I'm sure I'll be. obviously I can't know the vibe of a particular store without going there but going out at all makes me anxious about fucking up and having people dislike me
>>
>>98040787
If you're that nervous, go in on a quiet day to chat up the store owner/employees when they're not so busy. If it's a decent place, they'll help you out. Then you can come back later for an event and you'll have that to rely on in case things go south.

Have you played draft on arena? Friday Night Magic draft is a good way to get into a new area's scene and get a taste for things. Those tend to be long term player with knoledge of the store and the game, but in a format (draft) where skill is tested and changed based on player's picks and pairings every week. Great place to grow if you love the game. I was surprised to find a few people from high school are LGS regulars when I started going to draft, and after a few weeks I feel at home with them.

>>98040847
This is also wise. Spending time in the space will make it feel more familiar to you before you actually start playing.

Strixhaven Mystical Archive is cool. More sets in the future should have one of those.

Freakshit boarders have been greatly overused and a lot of magic cards just don't look like magic cards anymore.

Right there with you, except I'm not really trying that hard to recover. I recently went back into a couple local stores, did some sealed, had a generally OK time. Let me give you the rundown how it works.

• Don't go to the big stores. You're looking for small hole in the wall type of spaces if you want it to have ANY chance of being good. It's also important to support small businesses. If a place has more than one location or is bigger than an average McDonald's, it's too big.
• Observe the types of people in there. You're looking for people that take care of themselves, aren't annoying faggots, and ideally you want to see a few women around. Clean cut guys that don't smell bad, any women, any (well behaved) kids are some of the green flags. Tattoos and piercings, stupid look-at-me outfits, stinky people, an all male crowd are all big RED flags. It's also a red flag if everyone looks to be 30-35 years old. You want more diversity than that. No young people is a bad sign.
• Try an event or something or even just observe games while talking to participants. Do people act polite and have good sportsmanship? Do they focus on the game or yap about normalfag bullshit? Do they say stupid-ass alphababby memes? If there are too many normies or idiots in general, just walk away.

What I personally found for my area is that the brand new store I was wanting to be my main place has sadly gotten populated by a decent amount of faggot-ass fake gamer Alpha-meme spewing normies. Two particular dudes were so insufferable that I don't plan on continuing to do Magic there. I'll still go on lighter days and enjoy board games with existing friends.

(cont. in next post)
>>
>>98042246
The other small store I had been meaning to try out for a long time now was GREAT. Everyone was nice, no one was a salty-ass piss baby, it was just a good time with Magic. I will go back there and play some more here and there.

That simple. Go check a place out and tell us how it goes.

>>98041067
Why are they so inconsistent? Shouldn't it be "Daemonic Tutor"?
>>
>>98041959
Because Chandra burned a stack of Magic cards?
>>
>>98042252
>Shouldn't it be "Daemonic Tutor"?
No, because that's not the name of the spell. Renaming it would be pointless, stupid, and inconsistent.
>>
>>98042252
Inconsistent with what?

>>98042693
Maybe he means that it should be spelled with ae as in daemogoth since that's what demons are called on Arcavios.

I'll fix Mutate

Mutate v2
Alternative casting cost
If you cast a creature for its Mutate v2 cost, instead another creature you control exile this card. That card is considered Mutated (it has the greatest P/T among its own card and all cards it exiled, along with all their abilities)

I play almost every weekend against a fren with whatever we have at hand, mostly shitty decks made up of cards we've collected over the years: I bring a lot cards from between 2002 to 2007ish while he's been buying stuff a lot more consistently and has a bunch from the newer and shinier sets
Basically a really really really bad cube, but it's just an excuse to meet up and catch up
>>
>>98043055
Once in a blue moon I'll meet up with my friends to play cube. Otherwise I just test cubes on mtg forge. Occasionally we'll all put in for actual drafting/sealed. I have a modern deck and EDH deck but I just don't really enjoy constructed. EDH in particular is a snorefest. A friend of mine sometimes convinces me to try it again every so often and I remember just how boring it is.
>>
>>98043071
It depends on how you look at it
>>
>>98043055
I play at prereleases and at break time at work with 60 card kitchen table brews. Unfortunately the guy I play with, after a long break, has started to get really into commander. I built a duel commander deck just for him and have been beating every deck he has so far. He's seething saying that I built my deck wrong and that my deck would be bad at 4 player tables. I don't care, I never played at 4 player tables. I'm hoping that once I beat all his commander decks and the games are never close, we'll go back to 60 card stuff.
