>>98365132>TQnothing whatsoever
Here's the ACTUAL schedule including the UB sets, they also put the MagicCon dates to make it feel less empty.
>>98365132Are you excited /tg/ for Wakan... I mean Zhalfir?
>>98365132>TQWHERE THE FUUUCK IS LOOT? What color will his reality fracture cards be? Do you think we will get one of each color?
>Release teaser art for Zhalfir>It's fucking Temu MCU WakandaI'm tired, bros... feeling sleepy...
>>98365142Why are these faggots lying and saying its unnanounced when we know one of them is star trek?
>>98365166you are a fool if you expected nothing elsespecially in this day and ageshame on you, anon
>>98365172Oh wait im a retard nevermind i care so little about this horse shit i didnt even read it
>>98365152Idk it might be cool.
Funky new merfolk
>>98365152where are the white angels?
>>98365225
>>98365166>>98365173what else is there even? this is all "they" have. there has never been anything than what this is
>>98365203>>98365217yokai >: (yokai africa (8 ojoking aside, I like different takes on spirits and stuff
So apparently these promos tell some of the story leading up to Reality Fracture but I can't really make heads or tails of them except the "Loot got brainscanned".
Thread QuestionIslandwalk in Nauctis.Screencap this.
>>98365269They said there'd be a new mechanic for evasion due to no flying, so.
>>98365249>joking aside, I like different takes on spirits and stuffAgreed. I'm growing tired of "rule of cool" design though. Every damn thing in fantasy these days has to be this ungodly abomination of epic bangles and dangles. Never once does it manage to be more interesting than the actual folkloric creature it's emulating.
Thread QuestionLeviathan tribal in Nauctis.Screencap this.
>>98365275>They said there'd be a new mechanic for evasion due to no flying, so.inb4 Swimming that is literally just exactly Horsemanship.
>>98365282I think it's more likely we get "Sea Monsters" as a grouping like Outlaws.

>play promos are crystal ball and some fuckshit EOE uncommon
>>98365282>>98365290>Kraken, Leviathan, Octopus, Serpent tribal
Thread QuestionNoctis it's Noctis alright. I love sea creatures and sea themes so much. Vashj'ir in WoW were my favorite zones.
>tqdidn't ask, didn't care (about them)
>>98365324Do whales even have a reason to breach or do they just do it because it's fun?
>>98365315Goes great in my thassa commander deck
>>98365331They do this thing called breathing.
>Nauctus merfolk have feetmild surprise
>>98365297Putting aside the fact there won’t be any diversity in this (kek), I am more pissed off that they shifted away from what made mirage and visions so well loved.
>>98365235check Mirage and Visions, anonalso, word say that you like BBC (Brazilian Ball Contests)
>>98365348>The only merfolk with feet are the ones on the 100% water plane.
>>98365349What do you wanna bet that the set villain is a yakubian devil?
>>98365364>Pacific Rim (2013)Is anyone else sleepy? I'm feeling sleepy...
>>98365331They do it to announce their position to other whales. Big splash carries underwater.
>>98365355Bro your Ixalani, Zendikari, Arcavian, Ravnican, etc. merfolk? If anything it's less common for them to not have feet.
>>98365331>>98365342
>>98365355>Only Merfolk with feetIxalan's do, Arcavios' do, Shandalar's do, Ravnica's do, Zendikar's do...

>>98365132>What do you think about the new sets announced today?new merfolk lords
>>98365342Not really. Breaching is so energy intensive that it wastes oxygen.
>>98365203Is that guy on the left one of the Omenpaths spider-man cards!?!?Justice4Fleem!!! XD
>>98365406
So which Kamigawa character is going to destroy the entire plane and let the monsters take it over, before declaring himself the good guy?Which one is going to be the "Let's not let the monsters genocide the entire plane." evil guy?
>>98365421Hidetsugu does a demonic thing and Liliana accidently reanimates Umezawa and hes pissed at moonfolk now
>>98365387I actually just looked through Merfolk and I think it's literally just Lorwyn and Dominaria where they ALWAYS have no legs, Theros and Eldraine where they SOMETIMES don't, and everywhere else they just always do.
>>98365368Honestly it looks bad with the current political paradigm no matter how the approach is, if they have a white person evil then everyone will notice. If they have blacks killing blacks….welp this shows what actually happened and is happening currently. Blacks kill other blacks by the droves. Even more so considering the slave trade was also facilitated due to the losers from other tribes being put into servitude and sold off. It’s kind of funny how they painted themselves into this. You already have people crying on reddit about racists. Bunch of retards.
>>98365268Why did they choose the literal worst jace of all time for the winner promo?
>>98365436I mean they showed Kaervek in the art reel, so he's probably doing stuff.
>>98365433On Eldraine they have leglike split tails but no feet.
>>98365132>TQthey are fine i guess....lol they are slowing down the UB, whats the matter kikes?, pigs are not buying enough UB, huh?
>>98365456Sort of depends, these look more like fucked-up legs than tails, for example, but there's the not-Ariel who has just a full tail, etc.
>>98365478
>>98365284>please god don't let it be "Seahorsemanship"
>>98365350it's 95% blackest gorilla ungabungas too
>blue gets another evasion mechanicBehead blue niggers
>>98365483Yeah they have knees but no feet.
>>98365498Footfags on suicide watch.
>>98365498Fucked-up but fair enough, I guess that's three tail-only ones. Theros ones seem to shift when going onto land.
>tq (kinda)What happened to the merfolks™ we used to have? I mean, after some time, only original Lorwin block made them "correct"
>>98365436what about the big bad being a ghost spirit
>>98365307Get fucked summist fucking shits
>>98365331 getting rid of.parasites on their skin>t. Biologist
>Waterworld planeRetvrn marids
I like how you play Annex and then Annex wins you the game by itself. It's fun to not have to think and just have your cards win games by themselves.
God, I hope we get some new zuberas in Kamigawa this time.
>>98365602
>>98365579>making up make creature types to fit inngmi
>>98365132>Moving entirely away from standard Eurocentric fantasy tropes, the creative team collaborated intensely with cultural consultants, renowned Afrofuturist authors, and African history professors. The world-building features authentic representations of regional textile patterns, traditional weapons, diverse body types, and natural protective hairstyles.>diverse body typeswhat the fuck is a diverse body type?
>>98365579yeah!and Sliths, and Volvers, and Mongers, and...
>>98365624Fat knowledge body type.
>>98365624>>98365627
>>98365608We could get new mechanics like niggership: can only be blocked by other niggers, and bands with niggers, and protection from white and protection from consequences. All niggers cost 1 less if you werent the starting player or if you are white.
>>98365624>Moving entirely away from standard Eurocentric fantasy tropesI particularly enjoy them trying to pull this dumbass fucking retarded shit in MTG, the game whose history is literally built on forays into foreign cultures, their aesthetics and their folklore.Genuinely: FUCK. OFF.
>>98365624>natural protective hairstylesosha certified afros???
>>98365624Non white
>>98365649I mean it would be totally fine if they were only found there and not everywhere else too. Wheres the all white plane?

>>98365680He spent a thousand years not in Zhalfir.
>>98365680>why the fuck doesn't teferi dress like this thenStop asking questions. Just consume product then get excited for next product.
>>98365649you haven't seen the evil colonizer clan from the far corners of the plane yet
Also the third issue of the Jace comic came out, let's see if it's still not very interesting. Summary and all that for anybody who cares.>Jace is too stuck in his own head while Vraska is getting him away from the dangerous dinosaurs>They just planeswalk away, so this is pre-MOM I guess, and to Vryn, which feels weird>Jace gets back to remembering>Back in his memory, he's about to fall into a Shivan volcano, but Tezz saves him because, y'know, Jace IS still useful>Tezz doesn't really explain much but says a lot of lives are at stake here>Meanwhile, Squee and Adeliz are climbing up a Shivan mountain and two of their expedition are snatched up be a hellkite>Tezz and Jace meet up with a crazy old man on the mountain rambling about his god in the mountain and those who die meeting said god>Tezz ignores him and tries to step through, but the crazy dude pulls a knife, and eventually Tezz kicks him off the mountain>Jace feels guilty, because y'know, he does that>Squee and Adeliz enter the same cave through a secret entrance Squee remembers>In the present, Jace says the cavern smelled like death and decay on a grand scale>Tezz and Jace in the memory come upon a bunch of undead of various types, and Jace can't do much to zombies so Tezz has to carry>But then Adeliz saves the day with a big fire spell, then declares she's not letting them have the Sylex, because she wants to take it to Tolaria>In the present, Jace and Vraska discuss Adeliz a bit, because she could be kind of an ally if need be>In the memory, arguments break out, Tezzeret disintegrates Squee>Jace is about to mind-blast Adeliz before something unseen interrupts, we end on a cliffhanger who talks like a snake
>>98365702So so far, still not very interesting. I still don't know what this actually 'adds' to canon besides confirming that Adeliz is in fact Jodah and Jhoira's daughter.
>>98365702nobody cares. we're all doomposting right now
>>98365132>Nauctisfeels like it's pretty hard to mess this one up so looking foward to it>Kamigawa Titanbreachgotta be honest this idea doesn't feel well thought out unless they're willing to exclude a lot of what made ikoria and neon dynasty interesting, from memoryNEO had ninjutsu, ninjas, samurais, artifact/enchantment matters, channel, vehicles and sagasIKO had mutate, creature spells matters, cycling, humans vs non-humans and wedge factionsthey can get away with not putting a lot of those in the set, but if the end product ends up being humans vs non-humans + vehicles and sagas, it's not gonna feel very good>ZhalfirI don't have any emotional connection to the plane, I just know it's teferi's home and it got phased out at some point, I'm worried it ends up being "wakanda, but magic" so I'm just hoping the spirits part of the set gets a chance to shineoverall an improvement over 2026, I did not care for return to strixhaven and reality fracture is not looking good since the alternate universe theme has to be shoved into another strixhaven set, the eary basically started and ended with lorwyn eclipsed
>returning to kamiwaga again to sell more weeb alts instead of revisiting ikoria cool giant monsters
>>98365739>ikora>coolit was equally as sloppy as weeb pandering
>>98365736>feels like it's pretty hard to mess this one up so looking foward to it
>>98365539Neat
>>98365649We already went to Kaldheim, though
So how New Kamigawa companions will ruin the game?
>>98365736Black Merfolk with dreadlocksI will bet you anything right now
>>98365750Let's Return to Kaldheim
>>98365152I want my Mirage KINO back ;(
>>98365736>I'm worried it ends up being "wakanda, but magic"Considering the the fucking Phyrexian arc, that will be the case. Which fucking sucks. Machaka is my favorite Dominions nation.
>>98365269I was just going to put together a islandwalk + flying deck, too... maybe I should invest in a stormtide leviathan now, rather than later
>two magical wakandas>a new underwater plane instead of going back to zendikarIf they are going to re run shit why not at least making magical events imagine a magical not ww1>b-but weaponsmute point since UB has them by the bulk
>>98365364aww damn it, they're winning me over with this... >>98365378I know that they look similar because they're both western takes on the same idea, but tell me seriously whether you think Pacific Rim invented the concept of a giant robot fighting a giant monster with a samurai sword.
>>98365736channel on equipment and vehicles as killer moves?
>>98365436may I introduce to you, "the based matrix"
>>98365624>renowned Afrofuturist authors
>>98365757Feels like the obvious thing to do is have the Mecha Suits be the Companions this time around, and then for the requirements have something like "If your deck has at least 20 Ninja creatures, you may have this Vehicle as a Companion" and also make them super expensive, like 5 or 6 mana.
>>98365782>going back to zendikarexactly what we need is MORE LANDFALL SUPPORT>G: 1/2 elf druid at mythic rare>Landfall: when a land you control enters, each opponent loses half their life, rounded down>you may play an additional land on each of your turns>you may play land cards from your graveyard
>>98365739>instead of revisiting set only known for its weeb alt arts
>>98365275New evasion mechanic is something I'm really looking forward to, actuallyI doubt it'll become evergreen like Flying, but I also hope it won't be gimmicky like Shadow.In a way, it's basically impossible for a "true combat keyword" to become evergreen, as they would need to somehow make it interact in interesting ways with 20+ years of creatures, in the same way Reach interacts with Flying, so most new keywords are just slight variations on pre-existing stuff (like that Turtles keyword that was just a slightly different Ninjutsu)What's even the latest combat-based keyword we got? Decayed and Mobilize?
>>98365814>MORE LANDFALL SUPPORTI LOVE DOING THE THING AND DRAWING THE CARDESPECIALLY WHEN THE THING I'M DOING IS THE THING I'M ALREADY DOING ANYWAY
>>98365649well first of all, why not? but also it actually makes perfect sense in the story and I'm not kidding. there was a country (continent?) that was basically just subsaharan Africa called Zhalfir. Just like the real Africa, it had black people and zebras and lions and shit. then that country (?) got sucked into a time vortex. then it popped back out of the time vortex at the end of March of the Machines and they killed all of the phyrexians in New Phyrexia, so basically they're just a country (?) of niggers living in what used to be Mirrodin. and I guess they just renamed the plane after themselves, too.
>>98365739you're the one guy who likes ikoria better than kamigawa and you have the nerve to act all indignant about it lol
when do the revel the slop beyond sets
>>98365819>DRAWING THE CARDhow could I forget. amend the landfall >Landfall: ... if this is the 2nd time this ability has resolved this turn, draw a card for each player that lost life this turnwe can't have any feelsbads after you hit your opponent for 15 on turn 2 :)
So, uh, Zhalfir is technically also a return to Mirrodin set isnt it
>>98365834tomorrow, apparently.I'm preemptively relishing in the disappointment, seeing as today's reveal was actually pretty good.
>>98365834comiccon adjacent events then fall magiccon for whatevers left
>>98365826The spirit of the argument I believe is that we aren’t getting something true to the spirit of African culture (mirage and visions) and instead we are getting a wakanda high fantasy set made by fags.
>UB slop>Nigger set>weeb shitIts never going to get better, is it?
'ate UB but if wotc can get some TRVE kino like Appleseed, VOTOMs, Patlabor or Gundam for the mecha/kaiju sets bonus sheet I will open my wallet and spend an embarrassing amount of money on it.>it'll never happen because Gundam has its own TCG, and every other mecha show/franchise is dead in the west because amerimutts have zero taste in anime
>>98365848with this and Ikorigawa we are at half a set per plane
>Jace tries to "fix" Chandra's life by turning her into one of the feds who killed her dad>Jace tries to "fix" Liliana's life by never letting her spark and travel the multiverse>Jace tries to "fix" Vraska's life by turning her into one of the Azorius who killed her familyConsidering what Jace knows of both the Chain Veil and Garruk, I must assume he really fucking hates Garruk.
>>98365859best I can do is alt arts from mecha designersand only one of them being Obari
>>98365826they didn't kill the phyrexians. teferi phased new phyrexia/what was once mirrodin out of time and phased zhalfir back into time in the same physical spacethey're not living in the ruins of mirrodin, they're still living in the same land they've always lived in but it was moved across the multiverse>>98365857this is exactly it. making a set that's about actual african culture could be kino, even if they ended up making it a hodgepodge of the entire continent. west african islamic influences, horn of africa highlander influences, east african maritime influences, south african zulu-esque influencesbut its just going to be wakanda AYO HOL UP WE WAZ KANGZ N SHIEEEEEEET garbage dreamt up by american hood niggers
>>98365871I'll take Obari man. Better than generic pixiv furslop artists.
>>98365870Apparently Garruk was more an unintended side effect. Lili never got it, so Garruk somehow did and Jace just rolled with it. He doesn't have absolute control over the events of things, he just changed some important but minor things here and there.
>>98365870>Black Garruk is cursed>Green Garruk is Curse BreakerWatch as he saves his own evil doppelganger
incoming $100 ultra timmy Commander Staple(TM) card
>>98365878didnt they also accidentally trap a bunch of angels, specifically from capenna, in new phyrexia too, meaning they can 100% come back once they've figured out how to deal with halo?
>>98365899And then they kiss
>>98365750kaldheim had a LOT of niggers tho
>>98365900>4 mana for a 1/1, fog, and draw 3 in cummander>or 4 mana for cantripping unsummon in every other format
>>98365900oh yeah you're right, it didn't occur to me that this draws multiple cards in multiplayer formats, just that it's dogshit in 1v1
>>98365909Of course.
>>98365871maro, please bring Shinkawa back for a mecha altplease>>98365878oh I see.they should have just jammed Zhalfir awkwardly into Mirrodin, FFV-style, rather than replacing it entirely. that would be a fun before-and-after of the kind we used to get from blocks.in fact... maybe they did do that?? the trailer mentions the five suns so I think those are still in play. >we wuzyeah well maybe. I hope they include some santeria/voodoo shit. an mtg take on Bawon Samdi would make me smile.
>>98365919>4 mana to draw 3 every turncycle and protects itself
>>98365921Then they dopplegang bang
>>98365923the landmasses are swapped, there are mirran refugees on zhalfir so presumably some level of conflict would arise from how they are integrating into notwakanda, though the idea that phyrexia never did anything to the moons is also weird in of itself
This shit is boring i dont want to see it i want to see new universe beyond cards
>>98365900>each opponent'sBut I have only one opponent.
>>98365949reading the post explains the post
Yeah i want more universe beyond i want animal avengers more of them i want alligator loki.
>>98365959Hold on a minute... that's just gay Bolas!
>>98365152>>98365203Zhalfir lowkey has the potential to be the best set of the yearLost Caverns of Ixalan was heavily "cultural consultant"ed, but the set was actually BETTER for it because the dude they had running the show was a real one who gave a shit and not just a diversity hustler. Based on some of the concept art and the fact that Zhalfir is overlaying where Mirrodin used to be, there is a lot of potential for a good set.I will be cackling when there's no white people in it and woke double standards become even more obvious to anybody who genuinely cares about a colorblind society. (For the record, I don't WANT white people on Zhalfir any more than I want black people on Kamigawa)
>>98365132kamigawa and not alara?!?!? BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!also, im not into underwater settings so big meh.
>>98365166did you also mald like this when Neon Dynasty overhauled Kamigawa
>>98365968Except it will be the gay ass nu-Zhalfir not old Zhalfir whence Teferi came from.
>>98365968are they going to retcon mirran humans into all being black too?
>>98365984Is that a human riding a rhino riding on a phyrexian? Cool!
>>98365436maybe the bad guys are robots or phyrexians or something
>>98365995Hey guys remember when they made phyrexians white… this was why.
>>98365968>the dude they had running the show was a real one who gave a shit and not just a diversity hustler.based latinos dabbing on woke gringoids
>>98365947hobbit reveals start tomorrow
>>98365984To be fair I think having an entire set/plane to work with will yield better results than the "some knights show up" deus ex machina we got in March of the Machine. It won't be Mirage/Visions Zhalfir from 1996, but it also won't be the sliver of the plane we saw in MoM. It has the potential to be better.
>>98366031Well i'm not memetically racist so I have some hope, but for now I only care about Nauctis.
>the set' story will have lasting implications on the charactersthey say that all the time
>>98366008Hell yeah
>>98365984I wouldn't even mind an African mythology themed set but it's current year and this will obviously just be some Dr Umar tier wakandan noble negro shit. The big bad will probably be a Yakub inspired character that creates a light skinned race to enslave the righteous Zhalfirans
>>98365771Dominions mentioned outside of /domg/? No fucking way.
>>98366031>It has the potential to be better.yet, will be just woke/"inclusion" advertising/propaganda
no one cares but I've got time to kill, so just to prove that one Kaldheim idiot in the last thread wrong: there are a total of 23 cards that depict any kind of nonwhite person in the entire set of Kaldheim. six of them are about foreign planeswalkers (Kaya and Niko). everyone else is either white or a monster that ethnicity doesn't apply to (a nonhuman monster, a decaying zombie, etc.). so yes, you whiny dumb fuck, almost everyone in Kaldheim is white. maybe now you can start forming actually informed opinions instead of fearing the woke boogeyman who's coming to take your dick away or whateverdetailed breakdown:>white: 4 (Valor of the Worthy, Kaya's Onslaught*, Reidane, Resplendent Marshal)>blue: 4 (Cosima, Frost Augur, Saw It Coming, Behold the Multiverse*)>black: 2 (Dogged Pursuit*, Hailstorm Valkyrie)>red: 4 (Birgid, Breakneck Berserker, Frost Bite, Run Amok)green: 4 (Blessing of Frost, Boreal Outrider, Elvish Warmaster, Jorn)multi: 5 (Ascent of the Worthy, Kaya*, Koll, Niko*, Niko Defies Destiny*)*showing either Kaya or Niko
>>98365782>magical not ww1So... Brother's War?
>>98366092so the number to beat for Zhalfir is 23or 17
>>98366097>>98365782weirdly enough yeah they did do that
>>98365152Funny stuff. I guess JotC works far enough in advance that Concord hadn't failed yet when they designed this garbage.
Another potential card for Boros Energy. 1st turn Guide of Souls 2nd turn boB. The stock energy liat is tight already but I think theres enough lifegain in Energy to warrant atleast 2 copies
>>98366092How many white people are on Kaldheim?
>>98366115Much like with Cabal Therapist, it's annoying seeing 'color shifted' cards where they recognize that the original card is too good so they make the shift gimped.
>>98366089Wokeshit is the reason it was greenlit, but that doesn't mean it can't be good. There's great "Murica good" action movies from the 80s during the cold war, playing into the themes of the current day doesn't mean it's automatically shit.
>>98366140everyone else, like I said. go make your own count or something
>>98366115definitely worth testing since energy is full of flex slots after phlage got banned but I don't expect this to be a huge boost just a slight increase in consistency
>>98365900>The Theorist, Jace BelerenWhy isn't it Jace Beleren, The Theorist?
>>98366070>The big bad will probably be a Yakub inspired character that creates a light skinned race to enslave the righteous Zhalfiransanon WotC just wont bother with that as it makes black poeple look bad
>>98366164>>98366092Of my count there are 82-ish cards in which you can classify the characters by race (I ignored zombies, shapeshifters, most giants, etc..)Nonwhites that I included that you didn't>White: Righteous Valkyrie, Starneheim Unleashed, Search for Glory (features Niko) are unambiguously non-white.I personally think that Master Skald, Story Seeker and Spectral Steel are non-white but I recognize that the lighting is such that I may be mistaken.>Blue:Alurand in general looks black but especially on Strategic Planning. Brinebarrow Intruder could be ambiguous but seems non-white to me as well.>BlackDeathknell Berserker (elf)>GreenKolvori (Asian)Sculptor of Winter (Asian)That brings the total up to 35 which is still less than half of the set but a higher number than what I believe is appropriate for the setting.
>>98366157nice argument but, will be just woke/"inclusion" advertising/propaganda still
>>98366101>>98366097>no guns>no tanksnext attempt
I bet if they made snappy in 2026 it'd be red, have haste and the art would be a negro with a autistic and ugly hairtstyle. could you imagine if they did that?
>>98366092pretty sure resplendent marshal is a white woman.counting ones that might be poc but it's kind of hard to tell due to the lighting (and you included resplendent so I figure this is the bar), you missed:>righteous valkyrie>search for glory*>starnheim unleashed>brinebarrow intruder >tergrid>kolvori (looks east asian to me bro)so that would bring us to 28 or 29, or 22 not counting the diversity squad planeswalkers. which might sound like a small number for a set with 260 nonlands. but frankly the non-insulting number here, and the number I expect Zhalfir to have, is zero. and then the question is how many white people are actually depicted? you might think it's over 200 but most of the set is (laugh if you want but it's true) racially ambiguous demons, zombies, giants, spirits, and non humanoids. by my count there's about 70 cards that definitely depict white humanoids and zero PoC so it's probably like. 75% white people? not quite what I would call "almost everyone". it's a lot closer to "modern day USA racial demography" than "everyone"but for me that's not even the strangest thing about Kaldheim. it's the distinct lack of Nordic features. everybody knows what a nord looks like. everybody knows what a "viking" looks like. try going to the Wikipedia page for "valkyrie", see for yourself how many ruddy-skinned, dark-haired women are depicted in the artwork on that page. yet less than half of the *white* humanoids in Kaldheim are depicted with blonde hair and blue eyes. very noticeable! Anyway I'd be surprised if Zhalfir has even one character that isn't black, excepting planeswalkers. Maybe a few Mirran refugees will be depicted.
>>98365275My thought is something like Dive, in that it's like Flying but you just dive below them and come back to hit them rather than fly over and come down to hit.
>>98366277>no tanks
>>98366290>No Prowess: ( where's my FUN
>>98365973Yes. That was ass too.
So no Dragons from Hexhaven academy?
>>98366363they must be hiding them.
>>98366363Planewalkers were more important.really that entire set seems rather scattershot
>>98366363Who told you this?
>an entire plane of KangsAnother win for UB
>tricknology planeuuuh based?????????
>>98366376What?
>>98366310>but frankly the non-insulting number here, and the number I expect Zhalfir to have, is zerowell thanks for actually admitting that this is just about hating blacks for you, no need to take this seriously anymore
>>98366218Because he's placing more importance on his role as opposed to on his own identity or some shit I dunno.
doesn't Zheldir implies Teferi its a Ethnocentrist Racist chud?
Are zoomer newfriends not aware Zhalfir/Dominaria was the first plane in MTG?
>>98366403It's okay to be an ethnat, if you're not white.It's not like the recent Takir set had any white people in it either
Considering that (you) the player are the most ultimate wizard planeswalker in the mutiuniverse & beyond battling another super ultimate wizard planeswalker over ante of your spell book, why don't (you) simply kill anyone who is a problem to your shadow wizard money gang
>>98366386who said anything about blacks, wew. I even specified the east asian character.you started out with your tryhard faux-disinterested essaypost but it seems you're not trying to hide your neurosis anymore
>>98365152It could be fun but they spent so much time congratulating themselves for making afro fantasy that I didn't even get what the plane was supposed to be about beyond a vague aesthetic
>>98366431yeah very much this lol>the world of Zhalfir has five suns... you know, from Mirrodin>and then the world of spirits is um... dark>please look forward to it
>>98365968Ixalan was accidentally good because the Spaniards they tried to cater too found the Vampires more cool and relatable, while the "good" guys where somewhat offensivet. Colombian
>>98365816Reminder that the last time they tried out a new evasion mechanic it was Skulk and it sucked.
>>98366070I just wish it was a REAL african mythos set and not we wuz kang and shitYou can make a entire set with the legend of the inmortal Luanda Magere and his bleeding shadow but nooo, you must show futuristic niggas with no white ppl
>>98366468>while the "good" guys where somewhat offensiveWhat was offensive about them?To me, the not Aztecs and not Mayans in that set were just boringly inoffensive since they basical lack any cultural flair at all
>>98366323thats a bulldozer
>>98366488>aztec and mayans>use spanish names like ABUELO >ignore the fact local tribes actually hated the Aztecs and helped the Spanish under the promise of better treat from the new rulers
>>98366424this from someone who thinks it's insulting if a children's card game setting has one (1) nonwhite person in it, lol
Yeah nah fuck the ocean
>>98366290This card sucks.
The English autogen subs for the Nauctis trailer keep transcribing "Nauctis" as "Ixalan" for some reason.
>>98366511it is, and it would be insulting if the upcoming Zhalfir set depicts Europeans as native Zhalfirins, too. (which it presumably won't.) for comparison, here's the only blond depicted in Mirage.
>>98366533they're AI generated and then AI copyeditedthe retarded robot said "hmm, they're clearly talking about mtg. I must be mishearing this non-word. I bet they're saying... Ixalan"because it's a retarded robot
>>98365324>Noctis it's Noctis alright.you mean this guy?
>>98366489Your mother is a bulldozer.
>thanks to the five suns Zhalfir has no night>but it has a metaphysical plane which has no daySounds a lot like Kamigawa, but the insistent mentions of the people being connected to their ancestry makes me think the spirit realm is a more boilerplate afterlife and not like the "every time you piss innawoods a kami is born" situation.
>>98366092Funny the nogames troon is back to claim Righteous Valkyrie wasn't a sheboon, and wokeness is just some boogeyman, in a thread where WotC is once again proudly spelling out just how pozzed their game really is >>98365624
Liliana Repentant should have gotten a second color. White or green.
>>98366157>playing into the themes of the current day doesn't mean it's automatically shitIt does when the "themes of the current day" are a racial spoils system that rewards incompetence and drives away anyone with actual talent. You don't need a crystal ball to see that WotC hiring a bunch of N. K. Jemisin clones to write their Wakanda Forever plane because they're petrified of being seen as racist is going to result in garbage.
>>98366722I don't think so, but I also don't think you'd get in trouble for reporting it so might as well give it a shot.
>>98366515
>>98366752it's exploiting game mechanics, how the hell is it not a bannable offense? people got banned in hearthstone for doing this exact same shit
>>98366767lets just say arena doesn't have the same standards when it comes to rules enforcement compared to other digital card games
>Zhalfir>look inside>it's just half of Kaldheim denizensso ANOTHER nordic set? They are running out of idea
>>98365132honestly just blow up kamigawa at this point. that's better than parade of indignities it's experiencing
>>98366827No reason to not keep it going for as long as they can still deliver bangers like the original block and NEO.
>>98366827Nigga no one liked original kamigawa it sold like dogshit its only on the past 10 years you anime tourists have started slobbering about it because card, Japan. ND took a pretty basic "mtg but Japan" setting and actually did something with it.
I think the underwater set might be neatI love pacific rim and I am intrinsically on guard when I feel like I'm being pandered to. I have already been burned once, and this is wizards we're talking about, the monsters and the robots are gonna hold hands and sing kumbaya at the end.
I think Jace and blue Chandra are standard playable enough to maybe bring back UW control.
So is reality fracture just time spiral block but without fun mechanics?
Yes. Except not a block.
SEXO SEXO SEXOOOOO WITH WIIIITTCHHHHHH SEXOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>98366833It would be a big funny if Jace made her heterosexual.Also where is Nissa?
>>98366626Literally ripping off Lorwyn
>>98366900>actually did something with itThe new Kamigawa relies way more on "dude anime lmao" then the old. Mechs, random references like "you are already dead," etc. And now kaiju are dropping in to complete the picture.Old Kamigawa was more about humans making hopeless stands against the "Kami of the Uncollected Dog Droppings."
>>98366827FAIL for not calling it Kamigawa: KAIJU KRASH (KKK). Also why spoil that the kaiju are from Ikoria? If you going japan themed, do the Godzilla thing and have the monsters awaken/mutate due to a nuclear mana bomb accident.
>>98366833chill chandra almost looks happy instead of furious all the time. guess she's not gay in this alternate world, kek.
>>98367098Yeah we should go back to a plane so rich with lore and history that everyone simping for it can't name a single named character or major event from its original 3 set run. I'll take bad world building and interesting imagery over bad world building and dull imagery.
>>98366290did they just use some throwaway art for a duskmourne survivor?
>>98367106They probably spoiled it to hint that the Fracture stuff is going to have a lasting impact for the time being
>>98366827nuKamigawa is a great plane in its own right. Tetsuo and friends was 1200 years ago, get with the times gramps. Hopefully we see old Kamigawa in a Modern Horizons-style set someday>>98367106desu seems like a great idea; Kamigawa and Ikoria are both beloved settings with mixed-viewed mechanics. Combining the two into something greater than the sum of their parts an excellent idea. Kamigawa purists will of course be disappointed, as this is leaning more into the future elements than the past elements of Kamigawa.Titanbreach is also easily the most interesting thing they've done with omenpaths thus far. Also, may be good or bad, but someone on the Ikoria side is definitely responsible for sending the kaiju there. I hope it's not so boring that it's just evil WB humans behind it again, I'd rather see someone cool like Tezzeret get involved.
>>98365498One of the few planes where merfolk still have hair.
>>98367130errrrrmmm everyone knows Ink-Eyes chudman I love og kamigawa. so many cool effects that still see play especially in commander lol
>>98365513They unified dominaria's Merfolk design.
>>98365649Their are white Mirrans still left on the plane but Melira died.

>>98367458nice. will get the foils
>>98367458Fucking nice, really if I'm looking for something at 2027 is this set.
>>98367458Subnatica(L) niggas
>>98365739I'm disgusted that there are kaijufags who fell for the Ikoria marketing and didn't notice that there were barely any actual giant monsters in the set. It had like, 3 creatures with 8+ power? Rise of the Eldrazi shits all over it as far as big unga bunga creature sets go.
>>98365132Titanbreach has got to be the set with Battles, right? We've been hearing there was a set with Battles in development for like 2 years
>>98367534Most likely, but it also depends on the other sets; even though I don't think it's likely for a UB set to have them
>>98367458don't really like that the black one is rotting/skeletal but otherwise bretty gud
>Black Hebrew Israeli PlaneInterasdin....
>>98367106Vore Bitch2UBG2/5Deathtouch, lifelink, Rad touch (Infect but rad counters and -1/-1)Whenever a player loses life due to losing a rad counter, put 2 +1/+1 counters on Vore BitchIf a creature that was dealt damage by Vore Bitch would be put into a graveyard from anywhere, instead exile it, and it gains mutate. you may cast it without paying it's mana cost targeting Vore Bitch.
>>98367552>Standard in 2027
The kaiju on Kamigawa set is real cool. I wonder the long term effects this will have on the plane.
>>98367370GRANDAD
>>98367572>FF (gameslop)>Spiderman (capeshit)>Avatar (animeshit)>Marvel (morecapeshit)>TMNT (cartoons? for real?)>Star Trek (sci-fi garbage)>AND NegrolandAnd we still have to know the 2027 UBs... This game is literally in shambles, you can't even find shelter at UW because they are made bad on purpose.
>>98367622abuelo you racist fuck.
The only reason to get the Star Trek sethttps://youtu.be/sZWVrugrxJ8?t=1730
>>98367370I think it's hilarious that American Indians have just completely gotten the shaft in all of the modern inclusity stuff. It's like the designers don't even know that Spanish and Portuguese came from, y'know, Spain and Portugal, and weren't ancient native languages.
>wtf is this bitch saying? Life gain? Math? Can we have the kookie guy that drains my life back
>uncommon nobody caresshow actual good cards please
hey man nobody cares about magic in general
>>98367769MORE LIKE PRUDENT FEASTEATER
>>98367775kek
Hey could you good players settle a debate for us coomander monkes?Does this card mean you have to declare a color and effectively that color is part of your color identity? Or does it mean you can run any 2 color blue inst/sorcs?
>>98367782Your color identity is still blue, but you can run any sorcery/instant that is blue/red and/or blue/black etc card in addition to those that conform to your identity
>>98367769So azorious were a military dictatorship all along?
>>98367782You essentially have a one-pip hybrid mana commander that can use any basic lands in the niche case of a hybrid card needs a third color
Daily reminder that Premodern is prospering, while the rest of Magic is dying. Premodern games are fun and engaging, while new Magic games are tedious and outright awful. Premodern artwork is awe-inspiring and soulful, while the artwork of new Magic cards is mass-produced soulless garbage. Premodern is a closed system and no one can ever take it away from us, while new Magic is a deplorable mess with constant bans and new broken cards. You can buy Premodern cards now and be sure that in several years they will still be worth something. You can buy new Magic cards now and be sure that you just wasted your money on stuff that won't be worth anything in only a few years.
>>98365348Makes sense when you think about it. Everything is going to be human with "magical" features. I mean, how many non-anthropomorphic planewalkers have they made. Plus if they don't have legs. They be very limited on where they can bring them back on. (I mean they might get away if they make them swim in the air in other planes and all.)
>>98367943Isn't Premodern one of the most expensive formats in MTG right now?
>>98365649Come on you know why.Funny enough bet that's going to be the biggest flop of the year.The only way that place will work is if they had the "White Man" in it. So unless they have another plane invade via the paths or something like with the "Titanbreach" It's just going to be a circle jerk of "Wokekanda."
>>98368007Flop worse or better than Aetherdrift?
>>98367785this is one of the hexhaven schools. futurehold, or something
>>98368005Yeah, for that reason. People want to play classic magic, over fags & fetishes.If it wasn't for Final Fantasy and LOTR breaking records. MTG would be in major trouble. I think the Hobbit was so they could get that second wave of much needed profits as we seen Spider-man, TMNT, Dr. Who all fail to produce much.
>>98368005It's true. Proxies are widely accepted though.
>>98367782Basically you can use UG UR UW UB instants and sorcery and all basic lands.
>>98366277They have artifact artillery.
>>98365132>ZhalfirThe prospect of an Africa-centric set would be a lot more exciting if they hadn't turned every set into an Africa-centric set.
>>98368054They even turned UBs into afro fantasy, like LotRhohoho!
>>98365132>>98365142water world and pacific rim might be okwhat's the chance we actually get an eva thing since they're hard in on jp those few months
>>98366092>there are a total of 23 cards that depict any kind of nonwhite person in the entire set of Kaldheim.That's 23 too many.Nu-WotC is so pozzed they can't even make a TOKEN all-white set.
>>98365152>I wish for more in-universe sets!
Let's see if we have 23 white people in Zhalfirlollmao
Mirage is still my favorite set of all time. When I saw the cards and the cool artwork as a child, I was immediately entranced. It was an Africa-centric set, but without the political interference. Nobody was counting the number of black or white people on the cards. This new set will be an abomination.
>>98368057>what's the chance we actually get an eva thingIf Secret Lair qualifies as a "thing"? 30%Chance of it being good? 0%Chance of it being good if it's an actual set? Probability mathematics can't accurately represent things that are so beyond impossible.NGE has the same problem Turtles had where the actual cast in the show is WAY too small for a set, and the fact that the most important characters are sexy underage girls is pure poison for the type of miserable "people" infesting WotC these days.
>>98368077hey two of the most important characters are also sexy underage BOYSand one of age sexy girlbut wotc is beyond desperate for jp market and eva is like the biggest jp collab whore, so going with one of the biggest western whores would make sense
>>98368057To be fair. I think both of them will work out as make their money back if not add some funds into WOTC account. However doubt Black Fantasy will. It be the classic talk about about it but no one will really buy it. Though they might make some Broken cards or reprint cards that are OP to sell the set. Though I am guessing it be the classic "Think of how many lives this is going to save." BS they love to push.
>>98368075Zhalfir will be an spite in the face of anyone who loved that an authentic disgrace full of wokism and shitty nu-art
>>98368106it's ok there's a small chance the UB shit will have good artand mecha kamigawa might, at least the robot part
>>98368117The whole point of Mecha Kamigawa was to add non-japanese people into the plane. Watch the set after that will be black Samurai and non-Japanese themes thrown in cause "Ikoria" was merged in.
>>98368117The two other UW will knock it out of the park im willing to bet that but on the same page the UB shit will be so hideous it will drain any hype and momentum those sets achieve to spark in people (and by people i mean non-cummander zombie coonsomers)
>>98368132>Watch the set after that will be black Samurai and non-Japanese themes thrown in cause "Ikoria" was merged in.anon we literally had afro samurai in neon kamigawa
But where is Norika Yamazaki, the Poet? Is she alright?

>>98367943Buy an ad.
>>98368268>he thinks I read the cardRetard
>>98368059Tarkir for some reason had no Africans.
>>98368294Dragonstorm had other issue, but it did not have any black people in it
>>98368294worse, it had 2 mtf clans
>>98368316An all white set would have the whole alphabet to make up for a lack of Africans.
>>98365132I'm sad more mundane designs get replaced with gaudiness.
>>98367404they said that Ikoria landmasses got teleported to Kamigawa.
>>98368354Those historically accurate weapons are probably considered racist.Really, the problem with Afro-fantasy and Afro-futurist aesthetic is that just Nigerian stuff and they just ignore the rest of Africa
>>98368354Are these playable in premodern?
>>98365649The whites have Metal on themselves.

>>98368426Some manner of dryads?
>>98368444Elves more likely
>>98368446They confirmed there won't be any north african or arabic influences in the set so no Djinns.
>>98368453So why is one of the races a minotaur then?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaUhdKIc-yQ&t=73sThey confirmed it's an American culturally appropriating African culture set rather than something made for Africans.

>>98365152>where mirrodin use to beno I hate what they did to the lore. unless it being a artificial plane and the suns being unstable now comes up.
>>98368479https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC6ebvZg-_Q
>>98365152I rather have UBslop instead of afrofantasy
>>98368483They mentioned that thanks to the five suns Zhalfir has no day-night cycle which presumably wasn't the case before.I do hope the matter of the Mirran refugees comes up. And hopefully there's some addressing the cultural paradigm shift the Zhalfirin must feel after their entire society dedicated itself to defeating Phyrexia, because now that's done, and where they go from there should be worth exploring.
>>98366092thats 9% of non-land cards..
>>98367782designed for edh is a mistake. what is this garbage.
>>98368508I wouldn't bet on it anon
>>98368507mirrodin is a artificial plane. the suns formed from its mana tlrl. the suns would not work if mirrodin just went away, just like if you have a enchantment on your opponents land and they concede. your mana link is gone. theres other lore reasons it doesnt work- but thats nothing new for the cluster fuck middle finger to lore they have been doing since bradywalkers so whatever. pre modern it is.
>>98365900A body and an extra draw every turn is pretty fucking strong on a PW. If we wasn't in this 3 year 20 set standard hell cycle he'd actually be really good.In the old 2 year two blocks standard rotation my mans would be amazing. :<
To understand coomander, this is the type of players that enjoy it>>>>98365745
>>98368578Grim
>>98368453>there won't be any north african or arabic influences in the setWhy not?
>>98368472>pulled from the cultural of the black diasporaPLEASE BE VOODOO AND NOT HIPHOP
>>98368453>no Djinns.This kinda has a djinn/efreet vibe but I suppose it might be something else.
>>98368643It's modern black culture which is pretending Wakanda is real. (it's an extension of marvelslop)
>>98368643The speakers emphasized ancestral connection and the spiritual realm a lot in the presentation, so there might be something vaguely like voodoo in the culture. Don't expect to see shrunken huds and animal sacrifice in the set, though. WotC toned down any depiction of those sorts of elements a lot over the past decade or so.
>>98368704yeah they went back and de-edgified the most metal depictions of zombies for the digital re-release of Khans of Tarkir.... and they un-catted all of the rakshasas, for some reason...
UB announcements when?
>>98367404Something tells me “crystal” has a lot to do with how current mtg cards are made
>>98368806UB set 1: Pride of WakandaUB set 2: Afro SamuraiUB set 3: NBA 2k
>>98368249Not sure how long you gonna keep up this meme. Or have you coaxed yourself into snafu already.There's more Premodern events listed on top8 than Standard events.Also it's funny to watch you bend backwards to say the format is very expensive but also exclusively played by favela monkeys. What it makes of you, I wonder.
>>98368704shame, they removed that from tarkir too
>>98368397Is this teferis dad? I like the gold afro pic lmfao.
>>98368806I heard they would be today, but checking the wotc twitter, all I can see is the announcement for Hobbit spoilers which will be in 90 minutes.
>>98368790>and they un-catted all of the rakshasas, for some reason...It was offensive to Indians, was the reason given, but I doubt any Indians even cared
>1:1 ratio of UW to UBMarginal improvement!

>>98365152Where are the white people?
>>98369003white... people? that's racist, chud.
they better not put ANY black people in Zhalfir
>>98369052They said no Africans only Black people.
is it subsaharans only or will you get some libyan type niggas in there too?
>>98369065Previews suggest the former.
>>98369065Mirage/Visions had arab/nafri looking peoplethis time around, I'm gonna guess "no"
>>98369065There's no Sahara in the Planesverse.
my last nights game were so filled with salt it was actually impressive watching a mid20s and mid30s chud crash out while me and the other player just chill.>game 1>its 'competitive'>playing yidris and dont even cast him, turn 5 the game is over with an opponent with double sheoldred >cast possibility storm since the double sheoldred player is green goblin and can play around it and I want this game over>they rage>one guy casts craterhoof, expropriate, fractured realm, avenger of zendikar, etc>doesnt win, is just BITCHING hard (if sheoldred hadn't forced me to sac nalfeshe and blazing tyrannosaurus and I may have won instead) >game is over>game 2>they are still supremely butthurt>they focus down the sheoldred guy and leave him at one with orcish bowmasters>the other 2 players are bizarrely competitive, like trying to get better and threat assess>orcish bowmaster player asks me why didn't I kill the sheoldred player at 1 life, after he pinged me from 15 to 1>after the turn 10 cyc rift from the expropriate player>the 2 rage players drop pretense and direct everyone to kill me (I have literally done 0 interaction the entire game aside from getting things removed and giving people treasures)>the guy with 1 life loops breach the multiverse and steal platinum angel, wins>they maldmax at me for making them have to focus me
>>98369065no, they'll make it wakanda the set because it's fiction based crack for communists and every black person I meet playing this game has a black panther deck and goes on about being black like it's a social tic.
>>98369108bro this is the magic the gathering general....
>>98369127Dominaria was the first plane in the game.
>>98369127>They seriously believe Magic players could care or get hyped about something like that?WotC is based in Seattle, it's the only reaction they are expecting
>>98369104Poor choice of pic to make the point. Hakim's from a different Jamuraan nation, not from Zhalfir.
Now it makes sense why we 'randomly' got our first ever giraffe card recently
>>98369127if magic players could stand this, they could stand anything lmao
>>98369140exactly, I figured you guys might find it funny since commander/edh is somehow being competitive, and they avoid 60 card formats like the plague. I can't radiate metamorphose and win in standard
>>98369192>60 card formatsMagic The Gathering. They avoid Magic The Gathering.
>>98369190What's wrong with Pizza? I would take Pizza over N*ggers any day of the week...
>>98369203>self censoring on 4chan you don't have to do that here
>>98368826NTA Does it matter when the meta looks like this?
>Fresh take on
>>98369270This will go great in my little person typal commander deck
>>98369274I had a stroke if "The fresh take on Elf commander" is the first thing they say to describe the card in a Standard set. I don't care.>>98369280No he actually said tribal.
Did we give up on the Hobbit reveals already?
>>98369392This only exists because they think the ip is 'le money printer' even thought that was a one time thing with lotrpeople don't care when UB is UBiquitous and happening into the 2030's, hope it super under performs or flops
>>98369392No, like I wrote, if the first card you spoil is literally announced as "New commander" in a Standard deck, I just don't care. I stopped watching the stream.
>>98369480well actually they showed the LONELY Mountain first but yeah holy shit that was shameless from Gavin lol
It just means EDH is the primary format, especially for UB sets.
>>98368275It certainly makes it clear who actually played during the Mirage era and who hasn't. (Note: Zhalfir is still going to be an abomination because Mirage was created with genuine creativity, Zhalfir is paint by numbers via committee / consultancy).
>>98368408This is the ultimate joke of the "design by council" stuff, it always seems to end up being way more of a caricature / stereotype than a regular designed character would.
New thread>>98369535>>98369535>>98369535
>>98369186It's neck gets longer, I got it
>>98369142oh is there an upcoming dominaria set? how cool!
