    Printing cards, that are iconic mostly for their original art, with new art..it makes sense.

    Comments like this makes me wish we have an upvote system here LOL.

    But yeah, I wonder what iconic cards they're going to print since a lot of them are in the RL list. Maybe they'll be gold bordered and will not be tournament legal.
    I am convinced that WotC is "dumbing" the game because of all the stupid posts they come across on MTG-related forums

    I'm pretty sure they're at the limit with "yet another Masters Set". There's only that much to be reprinted before the fatigue kicks in. Sure, there are some cards they could reprint, like Port or Mana Drain, but they simply can't keep it up anymore.

    They should abandon pure reprint sets asap and do more stuff like Conspiracy 2 (without the draft-only garbage) which had a healthy mixture of old reprints and new hotness (e.g. Leovold, Recruiter, Prelate, Palace Jailer).

    Well, yeah brah. According to Brand/ Art Direction, "iconic" cards like original Atog/ Sengir Vampire/ Shivan Dragon/ Serra Angel/ Llanowar Elves just don't "look like" Magic cards anymore. Magic cards nowadays look way more Magic cardy than they ever have before.

    Didn't think they would but it's nice to know for sure.

    I like the way you let the salty nerd rage flow though. I look forward to seeing your next anime alter in the pimp thread.

    So the point of this set is to sell cards that aren't playable even in the few formats they're legal in for a premium but without any of the oldschool stuff that might get the "feels" going?

    Is this the place that the old MTGO team went? Because that's about the only people I can think of dumb enough to believe this would work.

    Don't even joke about it. The number of people working on the set is HUGE.

    And why for the love of all that is holy does a reprint set need a Worldbuilding team? The only way this isn't going to suck is Adam Prosak showing some common sense. Otherwise, it's going to be FUBAR.

    That is legitimately commendable :thumbsup:

    Back on topic, looking forward to EDH masters. Should be fun to compare peoples pulls to the msrp at least.

    Why? We are not one uniform group who agree on this topic.
    It is better to ask and look stupid then keep your mouth shut and remain so.

    I dont get this set. I guess its 'edh cards that are too expensive to reprint in commander sets and some 'iconic' cards to lower the EV of the set' masters?

    Hypnotic Specter with new crappy CGI art: that's totally better than the previous one right? It's going to feel more magic and awesome!
    Nice transition from iconic to ironic.
