Yeah thats super troll rip

urban crane
#

wizards had confirmed somewhere we got 3 in universe

#

and vrest was ub

golden plover
#

Tbf wizards changes their mind on things a lot

#

Reminder UB was originally supposed to be commander only

urban crane
#

that was communicated openly

golden plover
#

Then it got added to modern but was "never supposed to affect standard"

#

And now half of standard sets moving forward are UB

golden plover
#

It's entirely possible that they deem 2/5 "half" for the sake of next year

#

But that'd suck

#

Would also mean two front loaded magic sets next year

#

And then the rest of the year isn't magic lol

copper pecan
#

you can tell this isn't real because it doesn't look like it was taken during an earthquake

golden plover
#

All real leaks are taken with the world's oldest phone

#

But... They even got collector numbers right

copper pecan
#

yeah these are probably real

steady onyx
#

idtso, i think it would be too strong but idk

golden plover
#

Hoping the cards are real and the sets for 2026 aren't

#

It's like a monkeys paw moment. Everyone wanted less standard sets so they cut a UW one and now you can check out of magic after April lol

sleek ferry
#

It should be 6 sets no? Lorwyn should be very early January

#

So it’s probably 3 UB, 3 in universe

golden plover
#

They only had 5 on the leaked list summer was quoting

#

It's possible it's 6 and they just didn't reveal the 6th

#

But the list only had 5

sleek ferry
#

They’ve been doing a set every 1.5 months

waxen timber
#

||Star Trek|| I think could be a good fit for Magic as long as they focus more on the exploring planets and not space battles

sleek ferry
#

ST and the Hobbit are both perfectly fine

#

I don’t think I’m ready for another super hero set within a year though

golden plover
#

Marvel 2 is kinda lame but they're contracted to 3 of those

sleek ferry
#

Sure, but within a year of the last one is way too quick imo

golden plover
#

I'm sure the fatigue of these will hit soon and they'll cut down to 1-2 UB sets a year

sleek ferry
#

Spider-Man already suffered due to them having to turn a would be small set to a full set

golden plover
#

But I dunno if that's 2026 or 2027

sleek ferry
#

My dream is that we get another FF set, fully dedicated to Tactics (best FF game)

steady onyx
#

wheres my hsr set / wheres my clair obscur set / whers my minecraft set / wheres my terraria set / wheres my yugioh set / wheres my silksong set / wheres my league set

sleek ferry
#

The expedition 33 set is going to go crazy after it wins game of the year

steady onyx
#

holy yeah

golden plover
#

Expedition 33 would actually be a good fit and is culturally relevant

#

Therefore they won't do it lol

steady onyx
#

bro i want my fucking maelle card

#

but she revolves around equipment

#

and stances

#

or smt

sleek ferry
#

In before they do a demon slayer set

steady onyx
#

theres so much cool shit u could do with the game

#

lune is like izzet spellslinging

#

sciel is like orzhov ? idk

#

gustave is mono white or azorious

golden plover
#

Gustave is clearly Boros lol

waxen timber
#

UB is just a sticking time bomb. Eventually one of the properties is going to toxic

steady onyx
#

i got white but i didnt know second color

golden plover
#

But yeah, something is bound to go wrong when 60% of your products a year aren't your own IP

steady onyx
#

nah the expedition 33 set is crazy now

#

i want this shit so bad now

tardy echo
#

Something something the enfortniteification of games

waxen timber
#

Disregarding stuff like money going to JK Rowling, a Harry Potter set would have been so much more lame than Strixhaven

tardy echo
#

Full agree I think collaborating with an IP that’s just something you have in universe already is uninspired and boring

waxen timber
#

I wonder what potential Magic lost in all the UB sets. Like instead of LOTR, having a magic set about adventure and a huge war

tardy echo
#

This is also why I think startrek sucks

golden plover
#

Most of these ideas can be done similarly in universe

#

Avatar? Tarkir

#

Lotr? Similar to most fantasy stuff because it's the basis

#

Tomb Raider? Zendikar

#

Most sets have had a 1-2 off legend that's similar but different enough from another IP to have their own spin on it

tardy echo
#

I think some IPs are like fine enough

waxen timber
#

It also just doesn't leave much for follow up. Like Strixhaven 2 is hype but, a second FF set would just feel like milking a dead cow

golden plover
#

Like theros has a ton of guys that reference Greek myths but are different

tardy echo
#

At the end of the day crossovers are going to happen so I don’t care that much but

golden plover
tardy echo
#

When we’re doing Harry Potter instead of the set that’s clearly a Harry Potter pastiche

#

Or Star Trek after we got the sci fi pastiche set

golden plover
#

Like who all do people even care about in the Hobbit??

#

It's Bilbo and Smaug

#

And then like 12 new gandalfs and 4 new gollums?

#

I think Legolas was there too, right?

tardy echo
#

That would be like if we got (god forbid) red dead redemption UB after otj

golden plover
#

And the 12 interchangeable dwarves?

tardy echo
#

As just a very random example

golden plover
#

Hobbit doesn't have enough material for a full set

tardy echo
#

The hobbit will also have 32 different spider cards

golden plover
#

Marvel will have enough content, but marvel fatigue is real

tardy echo
#

Cave spider mountain spider volcano spider

golden plover
#

Kinda hoping all three marvel sets bomb like spiderman lol

#

And Star Trek has enough content, but it's a weird fit

tardy echo
#

I just think Star Trek is oversaturation

#

Sci fi gets old fast

golden plover
#

It's also hitting the "not quite relevant but older nerds with expendable income will chase the treatments" market

#

Like star trek hasn't been culturally relevant since the last three movies

sleek ferry
#

I mean, if you go by that logic, Avatar hasn’t been culturally relevant in almost 2 decades

golden plover
#

I mean, yeah

tardy echo
#

Sigh korra was relevant…

golden plover
#

But this is also cross promo for the new movie

#

And show

#

This one is because it's coming back around soon

waxen timber
#

Sci Fi I do not think gets old, it's more generic Sci Fi gets old. Like Dune is Sci Fi and would make for an interesting set

golden plover
#

Star Trek tho has like 12 different shows rn but no one knows about any of them

#

I'm also p sure universus has a star trek set rn lol

sleek ferry
#

I think as of right now, the worst thing WotC has done, is sign that 3 set contract with Marvel. Getting 3 marvel sets in 3 consecutive years is going to feel so bad

tardy echo
#

Well Star Trek is definitely what I would constitute as generic sci fi

golden plover
#

Oh the three marvel set contract was a bad idea for sure lol

#

Like people aren't even going to see the good marvel movies rn

tardy echo
#

Does Spider-Man count as one of the 3 sets

sleek ferry
#

Yes

tardy echo
#

Ok

tardy echo
golden plover
#

I mean spiderman is 1/3 and it's bombing hard

sleek ferry
tardy echo
#

wtf is infinity castle

golden plover
#

Like they had the clearest release month of all time

pulsar talon
tardy echo
#

God

sleek ferry
#

I also don’t think Spider-Man is bombing btw. I think people treated spider man like another FF, prices grew to ridiculous unsustainable prices and now everything is regulating back to MSRP

tardy echo
#

The west has fallen

golden plover
#

Fantastic Four had to compete with Superman

#

Thunderbolts had no excuse

sleek ferry
#

Also, it doesn’t help that scalpers are monitoring these UB sets like hawks

tardy echo
#

My lawyer has advised me not to comment my feelings on scalpers

golden plover
#

Yeah these sets are big with the pokemon investor bros

#

And as pokemon knows, that hits playability

haughty otter

golden plover
#

Apparently the other LGS nearby had all of 10 people on Saturday

#

Obviously this is just my area and not across the board

#

But stores have a ton of spiderman they're struggling to move

#

You're right tho that charging the FF pricss aren't helping at all

tardy echo
#

It doesn’t help that the set itself just isn’t too great, in the standard we have right now, after the 2 sets we just got back to back

waxen timber
#

That said I don't think this will bomb as hard as Detective Ravinca but, it certainly is not doing well

sleek ferry
#

EoE and Tarkir were 2 of the best in universe sets that mtg has done in a long time imho, and both were easily accessible for players. The UB sets are the only ones that are impossible to find which tells you that the finance bros are watching these sets like crazy

golden plover
#

MKM lives off those surveil lands lol

sleek ferry
#

MKM has at least aged decently well

tardy echo
#

Sigh son analyze the pollen will make you beg for forgiveness

#

No more lies is actually a good card

golden plover
#

And yeah, I can still find Tarkir at any LGS near me

#

My store has trouble keeping EOE in stock

#

But it's not impossible

#

And FF? There's no shot

sleek ferry
#

I think Warp is both one of the best and most broken mechanics ever

golden plover
#

Warp is sick. I just wish there were more good warp cards

tardy echo
#

Tbf Tarkir has been out now for like 8 months right

#

People have most of the stuff they need and don’t need to pull anymore, and they kind of banned the most important card from the set

golden plover
#

Yeah, Tarkir isn't too hard to find now

#

But even when it came out it was pretty easy to find

#

EOE less so, but not impossible

#

FF is still near impossible

sleek ferry
#

If Lorwyn and Strixhaven are even half as good as EoE, we’re in for some good in universe sets

golden plover
#

I imagine the finance bros are gonna hoard spiderman too, which is funny when the most expensive card in the set is $20

#

Well the soul stone is $80

sleek ferry
#

I also think Avatar and Strixhaven will end up having crazy synergy that won’t be realized until both sets are out

tardy echo
#

Most in universe sets have been good recently no?

#

Last year also had duskmourn

golden plover
#

Yeah UW has been killing it

#

Aetherdrift was kinda the only dud UW set in the past two years

sleek ferry
golden plover
#

Well that and MKM

tardy echo
#

If those are what constitute duds then idk

#

Still plenty of meta relevant cards + currently carrying half the mana base of the universe on their backs

sleek ferry
#

Also fwiw, dud sets in mtg aren’t like say, dud sets in ygo lol

tardy echo
golden plover
#

Most dud sets still have a couple playable cards

#

MKM and Aetherdrift have bad limiteds too tho

#

And that does hurt a set's perception

sleek ferry
#

I’ve also noticed that they’re rarity distribution has gotten way better

copper pecan
#

i liked aetherdrift limited

sleek ferry
#

Mythics lately have actually been strong playable cards

golden plover
#

Aetherdrift limited isn't awful

sleek ferry
#

While for a long time it felt like mythics were mostly commander cards

golden plover
#

It's just super grindy

sleek ferry
#

OTJ limited is way worse than aetherdrift limited

golden plover
#

Like unless one of y'all is on Rakdos, that's a slow ass limited

sleek ferry
#

Mainly because they made green way too strong

golden plover
#

Yeah, I cannot stand OTJ limited

#

Green and that fucking bonus sheet

copper pecan
#

maybe i just have bad taste but i think the only bad limited set in recent years out of the ones i've played was mkm

sleek ferry
#

I don’t remember mkm limited being that bad tbh

golden plover
#

MKM limited sucked yeah

sleek ferry
#

But it’s also been years

golden plover
#

MKM was the worst recent limited

#

Then I'd say OTJ just because green and the bonus sheet

#

There were serious talks to ban Oko in limited btw

sleek ferry
#

It’s funny because as a set, OTJ was probably one of my favorite ones despite how silly the entire concept was

golden plover
#

Otj has a lot of good mechanics

#

But it's bogged down by its limited and worldbuilding

#

It's like 70% good set

#

But that 30% is really bad

sleek ferry
#

OTJ just has a lot of good cards in general

golden plover
#

Yeah true

sleek ferry
#

Also, Foundations is aging really well with every set

golden plover
#

Foundations is great ngl

#

I even like it's limited

#

It's simple, but it's good

#

Although Embercleave and Dreadhorde general shouldn't have been in limited

sleek ferry
#

Cards like the 2 mana tinybones randomly being a floodgate for certain Strats is super nice

#

Ngl though, I wouldn’t mind if we got Drannith Magistrate back in standard

tardy echo
#

I would!

They always have a 2nd copy hello_bro

For the ||Star Trek|| set, if we get a ||Q|| card, John de Lancie would have 2 of his characters as magic cards

Then again as Abridged Yusei said "It's not spoilers if it's obvious"

also just wanna say this is from antoher server Im in so OBV could be fake

best i can do is a deck where the only lands you have enter tapped

golden plover
#

Is that 5c Ashling?

past socket
#

Given more recent precon landbases I’m pretty optimistic

copper pecan
#

maybe this is where they're gonna print the missing cycling duals

past socket
#

What ones need them now after Boros and Golgari for theirs?

copper pecan
#

simic, izzet, and orzhov are still missing

past socket
#

Welp if it’s happening, it’s likely the 5c

people have been asking for a ||jund -1/-1 counter|| commander for a very long time

Please give me another way to Devoted druid combo but in jund lol

I'm surprised we haven't had one considering how much it's in both color combos

copper pecan

they just don't use that mechanic often enough for it to have existed before now

lusty trench
#

For those of you not in the know wizards dropped a land secret lair for £1 today

#

Its sold out

golden plover
#

Why do they never make these things reasonable

#

It was only 1 copy per person and sold out immediately

lusty trench
#

1 copy per person was fine

#

The supply was not but they knew that

golden plover
#

I mean, I would have bought 10 of them for a draft kit if I could have

#

But both 1 per person and supply made that impossible

fallow citrus
#

yeah I was gonna buy it when I got home but it sold out lol

lapis viper
#

just print them they're literally basics

glad peak
#

Also you probably want 30 of each for a bare minimum for a draft kit

Unless you mean a solo draft kit, I was assuming for 8 players nyaruhodo

$45 for a decently playable tier 2 deck was good

No need to analyze the meta, just cool cards people might like

Unless you do the $45 challenger deck thing, these are gonna get super destroyed at FNM

There's a "pirate" deck in standard that's like 50% mythics

Did they say anything about the decks being only reprints?

golden plover
#

And there's NO SHOT either of these tribal decks are gonna have cavern of souls

sudden lava
#

Gotta wait till April for Strixhaven gptvCRY

golden plover
#

If these decks come with a set of cavern of souls for $45 they're worth it lol

#

But they're probably just gonna have awful manabases and very questionable choices

sudden lava
#

At least the UB before hand is not gonna get like much attention from me

#

fourth is marvel

waxen timber
#

2 caverns, 4 stock ups, 4 into the floodmaw could be cool

sudden lava
#

ECL -> "unknown UB" - Strixhaven -> Marvel is the order so far

golden plover
#

There's no world we get caverns but that'd probably be the only way these are worth anything

sudden lava
#

There is your Thanos

#

Hobbit now

I hope you like your spacecraft support

golden plover
#

Lmao they're actually doing Hobbit???

waxen timber
#

Dang, then the ||Star Trek|| leak is probably true too

golden plover
#

There's like 4 named characters in the whole book

#

Set is gonna bomb hard

sudden lava
#

because the unannounced one is ||Star Trek||

golden plover
#

Or it'll be really weird

#

And yeah, that confirms star trek

sudden lava
#

the same leak had cards officially revealed today

golden plover
#

LoTR was a great choice. The Hobbit is an awful choice

twilit canyon
#

much like the movies

golden plover
#

Lmao literally

#

Are they just gonna start pulling movie characters to fill the gaps?

sudden lava
#

Hopefully the set doesn't bomb as badly as the gollum game

golden plover
#

Otherwise they've got like Bilbo, Gandalf, Gollum, Smaug, and like 12 interchangeable dwarves

golden plover
#

Also "That Girl Legolas Wants to Fuck in the movie" is gonna be the new busted standard card

sudden lava
#

AND NOW ITS CONFIRMED

7 STANDARD SETS WHAT ARE THEY SMOKING

sudden lava
golden plover
#

7 FUCKING STANDARD SETS

steady onyx

does someone have typed out all of next ywear then?

steady onyx

since we know

golden plover

7 standard sets is gonna actually fuck standard so hard

Y'all are on some shit

whats the other 2

golden plover
#

Unannounced UB and Reality Fracture

fallow citrus
golden plover
#

7 standard sets in one year is actually an awful move

I don't even care that 4 are UB (that's dumb too)

But 7 sets is gonna make the meta miserable

"Revitalizing standard" my ass

steady onyx
#

maybe i sel my standard deck if standards gonna get this fucked

:(

fallow citrus
#

bro if you play standard at your lgs it doesn't matter

oh yeah

#

ur right

#

just means more stuff to upgrade

twilit canyon
#

if you play standard, it likely doesnt matter

fallow citrus

like my lgs has 8 people regularly for standard it's w.e

however, if you play pioneer

1st, why

#

2nd, lol

steady onyx
#

hmm ok

twilit canyon
#

bigger standard isnt a big deal for standard

fallow citrus
#

3rd why

twilit canyon

but its making pioneer so redundant

steady onyx
#

is there anything from spiderman i should consider for my simic deck

fallow citrus
#

probably not

steady onyx
#

i was considering maybethe sandman? idt hydroman is good

golden plover
#

Bigger standard is a big deal when it keeps coming with mistake cards lol

steady onyx
#

hydroman could be nice tho

#

because i could be like

#

holding a flood maw

#

while pumping it with ouroborid

They're gonna need to do fucking weekly banlists lol

Buy ATLA stuff (definitely prerelease), get the strixhaven book, skip the first 2 sets of 2026, and then spend cash on Strixhaven.
