I think this is just unfortunately where the game is going. They'll put more and more money and set design effort into these and less into the standard sets.
Well we are getting 5 standard sets this year…
I don't think it's the volume of sets that will suffer, but the quality of the set design in those sets. I feel like if resources are allocated more towards the UB cards we'll see all the cool and interesting mechanics and cards printed in those sets and then Standard becomes the afterthought.
@mike @nokturne213 I fully agree from this, especially with corporate's push to minimize costs (aka employees).
