@mike @Stern I expect air would be white and Spirit would be black

@salieri @MysticKetchup it's technically possible, but fairly difficult to organize millions of players across the world, especially for something so decentralized. And we just had a community controlled version that collapsed due to online hate. Who wants the job now?

@Didros @Dippy half of the full box magic sets next year will be universes beyond. Final Fantasy, Spiderman, and unknown.
The regular sets will be the racing one, Tarkir, and the space opera one.

@mike @nokturne213 I fully agree from this, especially with corporate's push to minimize costs (aka employees).

@lovestha @andrew in Hasbro/WOTC's eyes, "the right amount" and "sell out immediately" are likely the same thing

@mike @blubfisch
I feel the same, though I do think it's correct for them to step in to create a shield if the community is going to be garbage like this. *sigh* This is why we can't have nice things

@luxyr42 @mike Obviously we haven't seen this enacted yet, but I wonder if it'll end up being similar to the Arena Historic Brawl ranking system.
I know Amazonian has run into issues where including a high-power card in a low-power deck bumps her up to a high-power tier despite playing a pile of durdle cards.
I guess that's what the conversation is for.
But also, there's never been a good way to rank commander deck power so *shrug* can't be worse than what we already have

@mike I think with the "shouldn't have been printed vs should be printed into the ground" thing, the idea is it shouldn't have been printed in the first place because it's bad for the format, which is also why it should be banned. But given the reality that it was printed, it should at least not be strongly gate-kept due to price, creating a high amount of inequality. Especially because that high price limits options later.

@driving_crooner @nokturne213 if it could have been anything like Arcane, it would have been fantastic

@andrew @MysticKetchup I'm also surprised they didn't ban around it. I guess it's because they originally intended it to just be a commander card, so they're okay with it not being in Modern?

@KoboldCoterie @MysticKetchup though between the Astarion and Karlach bundles, it sure is thirsty

@meant2live218 @mike maybe 3 standard sets plus the permanent standard set that they announced would work. If that's just 200 or so evergreen standard cards it would provide that extra bump
