I'm surprised they care enough to bother.
Maybe they just email Rich Shay like once a quarter and do whatever he says.

Watch your tone retard, some people like to play magic and that's what this thread is for.
You and that furry guy are the worst two posters here, no one is impressed you dropped 10k on some boxes of coldsnap for your man cave because your wife stopped fucking you.
Post it on the high end Facebook with the rest of the too stupid to learn how to play the stock market man children.

Was intended to be a very shitty joke. I apologize. It was pretty tonedef.
Pauper pretty much got destroyed by Pioneer at my LGS. While I don't play the format i like it as it does put cards in play that otherwise would not be played. Similar to the reason I enjoy sealed formats.

Play Design Lessons Learned | MAGIC: THE GATHERING
Bryan Hawley looks at Play Design's past, present, and future, and what they've learned along the way.
Ever read something and be like "holy shit this person is smart as fuck?" Well this article ain't that. Pedestrian insights about shit everyone already knew. The best interpretation I can give is this article was written for general audiences without any plan for it to say much of anything beyond "we know this shit didn't meet our standards and we're working on it." As an article about card design and set design it says almost nothing.

Reading that reaffirms my thoughts that Wizards does very little playtesting. Have a 25+ year old game...still not follow basic rules learned over the years. His excuse that Oko was once 'even more powerful' does him no favors. His bragging about 'mainly hitting their goal' is obnoxious as well. "We've fucked up standard with a Valakut knock off and then with a barely tested PW, but we did a damn fine job! At least we didn't pull another Smuggler's Copter out this time!"
Good job, guys!

Part of the problem is just not enough testing happens because it's such a small pool of players. Even with a good percentage of them being former pro players they're just going to miss stuff especially considering they have other tasks besides just testing. That being said, there's not really any excuse for Oko and Once Upon a Time.

A slight rule change would fix planeswalkers I think.
In combat you designate your target (player or walker) after blocks are declared.

Yah I try to keep my douchery to threads Noodle is in.
I am sad thought. Forgot I had a full art Oko. Came from the box openings Rudy did. Got the package the day before I flew out of the country for 5 weeks and I'm barely getting back to sorting stuff out. Wish I had sold/traded that shit off :|
Anyone else notice that some printing of Throne of Eldrain foils are utter garbage? Had mine in a dry cabinet (plenty of things to collect moisture from the air) and they've curled like little bitches. Seem to be able to flatten them out with heavy books, etc but this is def the worst I've seen. I don't think its moisture thats causing it.
I -think- they are the foils I got from the normal box and the pre-release cards that I opened. The cards I got from Rudy's box opening are still pristine. They were in a different cabinet but same setup.

Cards value halved I think. Should have traded it for a full art foil land when I had the chance.

I had an extended Oko as well that I pulled from my prerelease packs. Was looking at prices when the banning idea first started coming out and then forgot to actually sell the thing and then the price tanked. Probably just going to hold onto the damn thing now.
The foils I’ve gotten from regular ToE packs have been getting a tiny bit of curl to them, but the shit from collectors packs I’ve opened have been straighter than a hard dick at a strip club. I think it’s the nicest stock I’ve seen since I started playing in BfZ.
