This topic is about the card game, but those other topics sure do get a lot of card game references lmao.

Strixhaven I don't care too much about as I'm losing interest in the game(I miss my LGS ;_;), but I am following Commander 2021 spoilers even though I won't be picking up any decks. Also the JPN Archive cards or whatever they're called look pretty cool.

No you don't. The title is clearly about TCG. Fuck off with you're attempt to turn everything political.

Because MTG means magic the gathering. Don't use mtg unless you talking about it.

I already wasn't keen on Secret Lair and now subscribing to a monthly service for a unknown price for a unknown amount of product and value seems even worse IMO as it is kind of a mystery loot crate with either a undisclosed or somewhat random amount of value. It will even be worse if it also contains common non trading card products like buttons, stickers, posters, clothing, or even playmats, spindowns and other dice to try and jack up the price.

Magic died with Theros block in 2013, wotc has just been pissing on its corpse since then. The walking dead collab was the cherry on top.

What about Dominaria, War of the Spark, Eldrich Moon, Eldraine, etc?

Why do you dislike og Theros so much?

isn't this just recurring preorders?

doesn't seem all that strange to me, honestly. I wouldn't do it myself but I don't get the extreme hate for the concept since people generally don't tend to dislike the concept of preorders as a whole

No thanks. I'll continue to have a blast playing Arena for free. If you want me to pay money to play Arena, then I'll do that. Zero chance I will ever play anyone in paper Magic, so what's the point? I guess to get a card that's worth some money, but I'm not much of a gambling person nor do I horde things at my place

You don't even need to have played it to know that abbreviation, imo. To me, it's pretty crazy that a game that's been as popular as it is since the early 90s, still gets confused with some political crap.

I've never actually played but I know what it is.

I'll admit I've been obsessed with political garbage in a very unhealthy way so it's probably just me doing it without even thinking st this point.

unless I'm misunderstanding something (like, this is just one proposed method and not what they're actually going with), it's not? it says right here that you get billed for each drop when it releases

I haven't paid a ton of attention to MtG in years though so maybe I'm just missing some other key piece of info

Well they discuss yearly sub or monthly sub.

Paying for a drop is not a sub but what you do now already.

I guess what you are thinking is a sub of discount that gains access to exclusive drops.

Yeah, which is why I was thinking it was just a sort of recurring preorder. You pay for them as they come out, the only thing is that it's automatical unless you cancel. opt out instead of opt in essentially

in the loosest sense I guess it is a subscription but I was expecting something a bit more... special? exclusive? like you guessed

I took the MTG to refer to Marjorie Greene. I also misread "Special Cards" as "Spinal Cords".

For a brief moment the topic title was an absolute ride.
