Just to let y'all know I can't use messages on here at the moment.
Blue skies current age verification sucks and didn't work.
If you want to message me do so on discord (same username)
I was imagining the orzhov send the titan out to collect on people's debts because who is going to say no to a giant?
Here is my ideas for an enemy hybrid cycle styled like sludge titan. Probably could do with tweaks but it gives a rough idea.

"Did those parasitic YouTubers poison the well of our beloved Spider-Man set before you got a chance to form your own opinion?? Let us know who we can blame - over any internal factors - during our next shareholder meeting!"
i don't feel like magic set surveys usually have this question and i don't appreciate the implication that content creators, who do so so much for the game, are possibly to blame for a bad set's poor performance. 👎

Good video about some of the issues in magic right now.
Shared my thoughts on the current state of Magic and Universes Beyond, and the problems the current direction presents - even if you're not a hater

Mechanically RW will probably be burn and life gain and UG will be probably be look at the top 5 cards put one in hand for the blue bit, put a land/low mv creature from hand into play for the green bit. Not sure what GR will be, maybe removal of some kind? Burn a creature or kill a flying thing?
We got a blue/black one called Deceit. My guess is that the cycle will be the colour combos opposite to the shocklands in the set. So RG, RW and UG. No idea for names.
I think wotc is overestimating how popular marvel currently is in general.
This is the box I'm most interested in so why is it the only one they didn't show the cards for?! 😭
Our third Scene Box takes us to #FF9 and the Siege of Alexandria. If you're looking for the cards, those will be revealed by Square Enix! #MTGxFINALFANTASY
It's really funny seeing this after I made a post about how bad limited was this year lmao. It's magic's most profitable year, sure, but I wouldn't call it the greatest.

I'm actually not sure what year I would call the greatest.
2025 has been Magic's greatest year ever. More people are playing the game than ever before at stores across the world!

How could we ever top that? Give us an hour and we'll show you.
I reckon this is gonna be a flashpoint for magic. Something breaks everything and then it all gets "fixed" but the universe is fundamentally changed allowing wotc to just retcon anything they want to retcon.
Potentially also merging UB into the magic universe in the actual story.
We might not be able to tell you TOO much, but we can give you the name of this climactic set: Reality Fracture

Releasing October 2026. #MTGFracture

Worth a read!
I watched Spider-Man hype die on the timeline in real time. The good stuff and the bad stuff about the set are a bit obvious, but I wanted to explore them all the same. My latest for @hipstersofthecoast.com:
The meme I made got shared on Reddit but someone else was credited (I assume they just made the same meme) and I wanted to check but I can't find "MTG_noodle" on social media.

Also I think I'm in the minority with thinking EoE was an okay limited format, a lot of people didn't like it which makes Final Fantasy the only standard set this year that people generally liked playing in limited.
So far this might actually be the worst year for limited since wotc scrapped the block structure.

Final Fantasy was great, Edge of Eternities was okay.
Aetherdrift, Dragonstorm and now Spider-Man were all some of the worst limited sets I've ever played.

Hoping Avatar is good but I'm not confident.
Did a sealed. Went 4-3 with Selesnya Spiders.
Got 1 close game (which I lost) and everything else wasn't close with one player just absolutely thrashing the other.

One of the worst limited formats I've ever played 😂
Well I've tried out the new set and it was not good.
Drafted Villains and played 4 games, 3 of them were against blue/black and 1 was against red/black.
Felt like luck (both in draft pool and draws) was the main decider for every game.
Should I try traditional draft or sealed?

Oh I'd love more on what it is about the designs of older regions you miss.
Emerald is one of my favourites
Yikes, I am not going to buy anything on Arena anytime soon.
Labelling an entire group "violent extremists" based on the actions of one individual is bad enough but we literally had nothing to do with the murder, this is absolutely absurd.
The FBI is preparing to label transgender people as “violent extremists” in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder:
