A youtuber created a new EDH spinoff format yesterday after they didn't ban TWD SL. In the course of 24 hours it was taken over by Freemagic, the "banned poster" magic reddit, and disbanded.

Good times.

I'm reading the exact opposite. That it was SJW assholes that took over and shit on everything.

/freemagic aren't SJWs

Oh, speaking of dumb shit...

I hear the SJWs rule some corners of MTG social media. I don't participate so haven't seen it myself, but I hear about it enough and I've had nonMagic people come to me asking what's the deal with MtG toxic community. Shame that they're becoming our ambassadors. I feel like dork culture is finally becoming openly accepted yet I can't help but feel our welcome isn't yet secured.

Also, I don't get what the big deal TWD is. Pretty much since the beginning there have been chase promos. I like that these are allowed to be played. Existing for the sake to exist is even more lame. If they become too in demand, they could see functional reprints. For all we know, TWD imposed this restriction, like No, no other card name may be on our IP cards (ala Godzilla frames).

Really? Were we all lining up to get a Nalathani Dragon for those EZ wins?

Just because they fucked up in the past doesn't give them license to do this shit intentionally, especially with the Nexus fiasco so close in the rearview mirror. Yes of course they are going to reprint these TWD cards with a proper MTG skin - they are going to reprint EVERYTHING not on the RL for that sweet sweet chedda (and who can even be 100% sure about the RL?). Putting new unique format legal cards behind such paywalls is a dick move, but they don't give a shit about the game anymore. They figured out how to milk this cow dry, and they will.

Just makes me wonder when the best time to exit will be.

If SJWs haven’t taken over Magic, Wizards sure as shit isn’t acting like it, what with banning a bunch of “insensitive” cards from sanctioned events and their images from Gatherer

I thought wizards was trying to make it big in China.

I can't see them both have their current SJW bullshit agenda and being a success in China.

China doesn't give a fuck about that nonsense provided they toe the line as required. Go ahead, have all the SJW nonsense you want over there.

The world championship has 32 seats, 16 of which are invitees.

I didn't keep up with the exact amount of trannies but I'm sure you can't air that kind of shit in China.

Just having someone with someone with extra nomenclature visible on a stream at an event is not something they give a fuck about. From their perspective it's our own decadence on display.

you mean corporate didn't insta ban a cardset for the product they paid money to license and is currently selling as we speak? that would be a bit much for anyone.

They also seem to be trying to make multiple license deals lately so it would interfere with their concept they've been working on for years.

it's like telling a cupcake company cupcakes are racist and they should stop making cupcakes

Diversity in Europe to kill whitey and make European governments happy and conservative values in China to make the Chinese Communist Party happy.

When I saw this yesterday, I thought it was a mockup someone had done. But no, it really is the "hidden extra" card included in TWD SL. Which btw, is live to buy right now. Hurry up and get yours!!11!11!1

How long before they start including other advertisers in this shit?

Tide Ultra Plus! 5 mana, destroys all non-land permanents. On MTGA a little Tide symbol swooshes across the screen.

I had joked many years ago about Magic the Gatheringopoly where each copy of the board game includes a promo chase card but now that doesn't seem far fetched at all.

Fetched...

MTGopoly would definitely have Scalding Tarn and Misty Rainforest as the Boardwalk and Park Place.
