@@Lodosswar100 they are a for-profit business. What did you expect? You can pay to play and keep drumming the business and make sure the game keeps going or you can’t. Simple as that. I don’t agree with many of the things that they are doing. The fact of the matter is that they’re going to continue to make new sets, they are going to continue to generate large profits, and they are going to continue to power creep cards and if you don’t keep up with them, then your deck will eventually become weak.

Recent Secret Lair Drop outcome for me: I got in to the wait line at 12:06 PM for a bundle. I waited for over 4 hours in que. It was sold out, and I was unable to purchase what I had reserved in my basket for checkout while waiting over 4 hours in line. This is the breaking point for me. I will no longer be buying any product directly from Hasbro or Wizards of the Coast. No new sealed product or commander precons for me. I'm undecided if I will even buy new cards of the secondary market at this point as the sale of those cards on the secondary market promotes people to buy from this company. So, I may be selling my full collection and moving on to other hobbies.

I think Mark Rosewater is likely at odds with the higher ups at Hasbro, and his hands are being tied. He wants to follow through with things and continue to make a product with the core MTG players and base customers in mind, but Hasbro is coming in, spanking his hand and saying "No, you'll do what WE tell you." Hasbro, being a large greedy corporation, is looking to expand their IP's to get as many new customers as possible, as quickly as possible, and they are throwing all these new UB products at us because "Spiderman did well, people like Spiderman, right?" and "How do we get younger players in, how about SpongeBob." It's older marketing execs that have NO idea what MTG is and what the core base is, so they are just using standard ideas like they used for Monopoly and other games but which will NEVER work for MTG. I think Rosewater WANTS to do well for the base, but cannot due to the execs holding the ear of the CEO. I'm also thinking that the Lorwyn set pushback was him having to make a timeline concession so they could squeeze in all their other crap, (Edge of Eternities, SpongeBob, Spiderman, Final Fantasy, UB) while still allowing him to put out Lorwyn untainted (for now) The only thing I'm looking forward to this next year is the new Tarkir set, unless they do some shenanigans with that too. I don't want another Clue set, or planeswalkers in cowboy hats, or horror movies, or modern tools like chainsaws. They've already driven me from spending thousands a year in two or three purchases of each set, to ONLY spending a couple of hundred a year buying singles due to the over saturation. I suspect there are a ton more players doing the same. As long as they keep doing this UB crap, they're going to keep pissing off old players and the new players they DO get will become bored very fast and only be a new player for a year. They are cutting their own throat AND ours in the process.

I really don't understand how people love him so much. I'm sure he's a great guy behind the scenes and does have a true love for this game but, in public, the man is a showman, a snake oil salesman, a carney, it is all an act. The fact that the majority of people don't see that genuinely scares me.

I hate seeing such a treasured piece of my youth rot away slowly like this, but trust me, the sting goes away once you accept it. When you move on, just remember: nothing can ever take away the memories you made and experiences you shared with your friends.

This is why “PRE-MODERN” is light years beyond the best format in magic. Its a format that cant be jerked around and screwed up by wizards. Its a fun strategic game the way magic was meant to played in the first place. No ultra over powered pushed beyond the limits BS barf my combo out turn 1 n 2 i win garbage. I swear nearly every game turns into somewhat of a chess match going 10+ turns. I absolutely fell in looooove with premodern just over 1 year ago. I havent played any other 60 card format in 7 years n im a lot happier for it. Magic is enjoyable when my deck doesnt get banned out of the format. Also that cards dont get directly inserted into the format.

UB sets are a liability outside of Secret Lairs too. I don’t think they’ve been able to reprint a single UB card as the UB version and now that they’re going to be releasing full sized UB sets, there are going to be thousands of cards which they can never reprint. I think Mark is being vague about the Secret Lair reprint possibilities because WotC have no legal mechanism to do it yet. Universes Beyond are negotiated and produced as though they are limited collectors items but WotC are requiring them to be necessary game pieces so that they sell better. The result will be incredible scarcity and massive deck prices in every format

I've been done with magic for a couple years now. Everything that is happening does break my heart. However, I will choose to respect what cards people want to play with, as I choose to remove all universes Beyond cards from my decks and play with in universe.

I was opposed to the secret lair distribution method from the start, as I felt they should be distributed through LGS ala From the Vault, and Spellbook series. The FOMO sales tactic always felt very predatory. So far I've only wanted to build Chun-Li, and waited for Zethi Arcane Blademaster to do so, but if they don't give us an avenue for mechanically unique secret lair creations then I will start to use proxies. Still missing the DnD movie cards (Doric, Edgin, Forge, Holga, Simon, Xenk and Themberchaud), Dr Who (14, 15, Toymaker, Rose and Meep), and Lara Croft. Usual scummy WotC tactics.

Our game cannot be trusted with WotC, so we must remove their hegemonic claim to the system. Print proxies, play custom cards, don’t spend a dime on WotC products! Magic can only survive through prefiguring a Magic community that doesn’t defer to WotC for anything, including products and rulings

I hope making a new Commander format where UB is not legal starts and takes off it would solve a lot of problems such as 1. WOTC controlling the format. 2. the format would go back to when there was only three new sets a year. 3. having to worry about magic becoming Fortnite. might even help keep power creep in check because you know WOTC will power creep UB sets to make sure they sell.

Ya know Mitch, in order to appeal to the west, Shadowverse Evolve (the paper version of Shadowverse) just introduced its own “Commander” style format complete with 4 player groups, highlander, and of course a commander. That game is still relatively unknown here in this part of the world, but it is absolute quality. If you ever need a break or want to find some meaningful competition, check it out some time. Some of the earliest full boxes can be purchased for under $30. It’s like an indie game’s mindset but with the power of a major corporation behind it.

The proxies are great. They look awesome and have solid thought. Here's my problem. The point of the controversy is that wizards has made a product. A large number of it's base is unhappy with what is happening with the product. And the "solution" is to make our own cards? Why not just make our own game? This is the same problem coming out of Bethesda and other game developers. While I love the alters, we should not have to continue to save a game ruined by shortsighted, greedy, and frankly incompetent children (referring to pretty much everyone at WOTC).

Okay so the only thing that is changing is that SL won’t be reprinted as Universe with in but the SL will still be reprinted as a mechanic. So no unique mechanics in SL and that’s is the big point. So there will still be another option to play the mechanic without paying the expensive SL, you just have to play universe beyond cards and that is the case already because universe beyond will be modern and standard legal

I dont allow proxy in my commander game for 1 main reason. Not everyone has a printer, those that do have a huge advantage over those who don't. If you actually have to own the cards, then it comes down to who can be more creative with those rather than copy/paste/print top tier decks with zero effort put into it. I want your commander deck to say something about YOU and your flavor of playing, not what some guy who crunched the numbers and found this deck to be the most consistent and efficient deck to win. Or worse, players that take 30min turns because they printed off off the pricey cards that have insane triggers.
