    Welp. Since Hasbro overall seems intent on running its properties into the ground, I have little doubt the next one will continue the cycle of enshittification. I’d love to be wrong, but I doubt it.

      I mean, Outlaws of Thunder Junction is actually pretty cool…

      But in general… yeah.

        While the set is decent are you happy with 4 separate set symbols in one release? How do you feel about play boxes being worse than set boxes but more expensive?

        And those powers keep on creepin. They are finally scaling it back a bit, but there’s a reason the only cards that aren’t on the reserve list (or three kingdoms) above $30 were released in the past two years.

          I don’t care.

          I didn’t know that. Seems like a bizarre choice, but I don’t know that it affects my enjoyment of the game. I understand why people would be pissed about that.

          And those powers keep on creepin.

          That’s been a problem for decades and yes, it’s bad game design (and not the only bad game design going on with MTG by a long shot).

          I’m running an outlaw deck in Arena right now and I haven’t had this much fun playing MTG since I built a mech deck after the Kamigawa release and insisted on putting on the Pacific Rim theme when I first played it.
