Not thick enough.

Thanks, Anon.
We really needed three active threads about one single card in a card game.

Why so many blacks on the recent sets of Magic...

>>48727859

It has to be self hating sjws. Close to no black people play magic - the number of female blake players is probably in the two-digits. It's obviously not about representation, and it's not like WotC is going to bring in hordes of female black playes by introducing kaya. Probably some sjw on the creative team with an agenda to push because he or she has low self esteem.

Kind of a cool card though I like how it plays.

>>48727859
Are you really losing sleep over it?

>>48728009
>Probably some sjw on the creative team with an agenda

I'm 200% anti-sjw but we have to stop reacting like this when blacks or whatever non-white shows up : what is arabian nights ? who is Tefeiri ? etc.

>>48725809
Wizards thinks that people don't want to play their game because of the "lack of representation" when in reality it's racist as fuck to assume that minorities can only identify with people exactly like them

Maybe it's a Stormer false flag. They're forcing black characters into the card game ust so the subject comes up. Then their undercover brothers can get their shit in and convert the normies, and no one will suspect that they just came here to shitpost about the blacks.

I definitely know of cards and have touched a number of them.

>>48728530

there have been black characters in magic for years now. blacks not playing magic is not because there aren't enough black characters. it's almost as if there's another reason why they don't play magic.

nobody cares what color your skin is or what genitals you have if you want to play magic. the racist, sexist, xenophobic boogeyman does not exist. if people show up to a gaming store wanting to play magic, there are people that will teach them so long as they aren't acting like huge dicks.

>>48727859
Sure this newfangled "Zhalfir" thing is yet another sjw pandering shit, innit?

>>48728009
Clearly, self-hatred is the only answer for a fantasy character's melanin content.
Sure, shoehorning characters of different races into everything isn't nearly as productive or revolutionary of a statement as the people doing it think it is, but on the flipside, the plane Kaya, Ghost Assassin is from has people who are black, and those people sometimes do magic and assassinations and shit. It's not really that big of a deal, and it really shouldn't bother anyone very much.

>>48729756
>Sure this newfangled "Zhalfir" thing is yet another sjw pandering shit, innit?

YEAH MAN! Remember when the Mirage block was so inclusive and diverse with its white, latin, and asian characters? And Kaervak was gay?

>>48731288
it would be cool if they made planes like they used to
dominaria had different continents with quite different culture, magic, and aesthetic
theros is just the "we all greek here" plane, would have been cool if miles away from the known theros continent there was the egyptian continent, next to them the babylonian continent, and so fort
the same for kamigawa being a distant continent in innistrad
like, the way alara is
but nope, each plane now has to be literally a dimension of just one culture

>>48731332

#SarkhanForPrison2016

>>48731332
Not all old planes were like you're describing.
Some were very much like the innistrad.
Dominaria was special and unusually large. Many times bigger than earth.

>>48731549
>they're actually a vital function of the Multiverse.
is this confirmed or just speculation? are they the galactus of the multiverse?

>>48731455
Sarkhan had no idea what he was doing, didn't understand time travel or what would happen.

none of it was planned on his part, he just did things.

Nahiri has gotten away with it.. for now, but none of what she did was considered good or positive, she's still very much a villian.

I thought you fucks didn't like your villians to get beat that quick? don't you need new villians in magic?

whats the problem with her getting away to plot again.

>>48731559
more than that.

the three titans created all the Planes of the multiverse.

Ulamog breaks the plane down, Kozilek reconfigures everything, and Emrakul seeds the planet with life that goes on to evolve into beings you know.

this is why planes have goblins and elves and shit, all life has a similar enough origin point, Emrakul.

>>48731571
>her getting away to plot again.
we still don't know if this was all bolas' plan to control phyrexian eldrazi drones and rule the multiverse

>>48731594
is this confirmed or just speculation/fanfiction?

>>48731557
It's important to remember, we've only seen one of the several continents on Innistrad. The others could very well have had different cultures and magics.

Of course, now we'll never know. Thanks for fucking nothing, Nahiri!

>>48731614
did you read the Uncharted realms?

Emrakul has a talk inside jace's mind, Jaces brain translates it to a conversation he can understand.

Emrakul admits everyone is her's, and she doesn't want to play anymore because she is not complete and no one should be rejecting her, that her place/function is disrupted.

this upset her so much she helped seal herself in the moon by planting the idea in jaces head, re-writing tamiyo's super-scroll to be Emrakul's mana spell to give them enough juice to do it, and taking over Tamiyo's mind temporarily to make her cast it.

essentially Emrakul can't "not" eldrazi-ize things, but she doesn't want to do it to an already seeded world.

without her brothers she can't do her job and just wants to go away.

>>48731639
Innistrad is still there and mostly fine.

The whole "Innistrad is utterly destroyed", was stupid when it was first started and has been confirmed untrue.

Hey, remember that time Avacyn disappeared for a few years and the whole place damn near fell apart, even with the plane's big evil gone as well? You know she's dead now, right?

>>48731700
so is alot of the 'evil'.

>>48731706
are the demons and devil gone?
don't the demons reform deep in innistrad's underground after a while thus the need for the helvault?
they're the greatest evil in innistrad

>>48731700
And so are most of the vampires. The werewolves have a leader who is making them work with humanity. So the forces avycn needed to balance are not there like they were in original Innistrad.

Sugars is still providing protection and magic to humanity, and the order of saint draft is around.

Innistrad is still around, this is confirmed canon. Deal with it.

>>48731706
>>48731739
NOT ALL VAMPIRES ARE EVIL CHECK YOUR HUMAN PRIVILEGE

>>48731728
Two of the most powerful were permakilled by Liliana. So much less.

And Avycyn's main job was to keep the vampires in check. Not demons.

>>48731728
well alot of them got ermakul'd too.

the forces of good did get a pseudo-replacement, Thalia fused with her stand 「Saint Traft」 and was able to wield the Moon-silver spear because of it.

her fusion was apparantly so strong she could kill a being such as "Brisela" with somewhat ease.

this includes "empowered, glowing yellow-white hair" "angelic ghost wings" and hopefully, hopefully posing with 「Saint Traft」 behind her.

>>48731784
>Thalia fused with her stand 「Saint Traft」
this needs to become a card

>>48725809
She is pretty weak.

>>48731802
it did, design fucked us, we could have had a Thalia card, that, when something occurs, she flips into "Thalia, of 「Saint Traft」"

and has like, hexproof, taxes your opponents and when she attacks does something like poop out 2 3/3 attacking angels or something.

Sorin's still alive, just in extreme pain (sufficient so that he cannot planeswalk).
Anyone with magic abilities could break him out with relative ease.
Olivia doesn't want to though.

>>48731967
they aren't "Good"

they merely are, they are integral for the universe to continue to function and produce new planes.

they are too cosmic to have moral quantifiers.

That's even worse than death.

>>48731549
>Thing is, not only was Ugin completely unnecessary to defeating the Eldrazi
Nigga what the fuck they couldn't have done anything without Ugin's knowledge. Did you even read the story? The fundamental basis of their battle plan was Nissa reshaping the leylines of Zendikar into Ugin's specialized Eldrazi-binding rune.
They couldn't have accomplished anything but suck Ulamog's twelve story monster dick without Ugin.

>>48731967
being good for the multiverse does not translate being good for individuals planes and the people living in them, specially the ones about to get galactus-ed
lovecraftian gods are usually integral parts of reality, but that does not mean they are good guys because in lovecraftian mythos the universe is, for the most part, an abhorrent. uncaring place

>>48731986
which is smart, Sorin's hubris and selfishness was partial blame for all this.

could have tooken 10 god damn minutes of humoring Nahiri and showing the slightest respect (in his own way of course) to nahiri and nothing would have happened.

Nahiri is to blame too, but Sorin's indifference spurned her attack, which caused him to over-react and imprison her, ect ect.

Sorin, clearly cannot be trusted with anything, even shit he cares about, because he puts it in jeopardy regardless of how much he says he cares.

he just can't "not" be a standoffish fuck.

>>48731884

Does what's his name the werewolf legend count for you?

>>48732006
>>48732032
I guess so. I've never been big on Lovecraft anyhow, so maybe that contributes to me not liking them. I dunno. I think if we ever see Emrakul again, it'll be too soon.

>>48732006

That's speculation.

The fact that 1000+ years could go by with them stuck in a plane and nothing bad happened regarding them not making planes suggests it's not a fucking issue.

>>48732048
Nahiri is entirely responsible for her own actions and you know it damn well.

>>48732032

they are integral to the process of recycling/creating planes of existence.

this means NO ONE PLANES CAN EVER BE CREATED EVER AGAIN until all 3 Titans exist in some fashion.

this is such a bad thing that Emrakul fell into depression and imprisoned herself.

CREATION has halted because of a few children.

er, he imprisoned her in solitary confinement for a thousand hers, denying her the ability to defend Zendikar.

then when she gets out, turns out he didn't properly defend Zendikar either.

so she brought the last Titan to Innistrad (it has to fuck SOMEWHERE up) as revenge.

she's 6K years old, she, nor sorin, can possibly give a shit about individual lives.

>>48732109
>If the fundamental forces of reality are that easy to fuck
It's not easy. It wasn't easy. Most planes (no planes?) are as strong as Zendikar, and Zendikar is the only blatantly sentient plane we know of that could lend 100% of its power to a chosen animist (Nissa). The Eldrazi planar binding rune was a secret known only to Ulamog.
Oath of the Gatewatch was not some quick counterspell. Outside of the Legacy Weapon and the Golgothian Sylex (and even possibly surpassing them but it's a difficult comparison), Zendikar being channeled through Chandra through Nissa to burn planet-sized meat gods was probably the most destructive event in the multiverse.

>>48732141
did she not start a physical confrontation after being denied aid?
>give a shit about individual lives
so why not realize in a few thousand years more she will have grown into not giving a shit about individual planes? or anything for that matter

Zendikar had many different races, cultures, features, and locales.
Until half of them got dusted by Ulamog and the rest had to unite into a murky brown coalition force deprived of identity.

>>48732172
>did she not start a physical confrontation after being denied aid?
no she didn't.
Here's the order to what happened.
Shows up and asked what happened
Sorin explains in a rather insulting fashion.
She asks for aid.
Sorin dismisses her in an insulting fashion
She reminds him that he had promised to provide that aid.
Sorin says nothing.
She says "You owe me for this, for all the sacrifices I've made, now get moving".
Sorin says "I owe you nothing" (actual quote). Betraying her, and proving that he won't do what she needs him to do unless she makes him.
Also insults her.

THEN she tries to physically force him to do the thing he had promised to do, in exchange for her endangering her entire world and sacrificing millennia of her time.


>so why not realize in a few thousand years more she will have grown into not giving a shit about individual planes?
or perhaps, more accurately, have gone a wee bit crazy after millenia in a endless black void with only demons for company.

Her actions after escaping were evil, but she'd gone a bit crazy.
And Sorin was definitely a villain for how he acted.

This just makes it kinda worse.
Dominaria was fuckhueg, yes, cool. But we've been told Ravnica is the largest plane in the multiverse and it somehow is all one single culture? We've also been told Innistrad is one of the smallest planes in the multiverse and it still has mysterious other continents with entirely different cultures.

Granted the later may be a way to exploit the "immigrants are the scariest monster" horror trope in the future. But it really is weird. one Uncharted Realms narrates how Sarkhan soars from Atarka to Kolaghan terrotiry and this is enough space between them to have entirely different cultures but Theros has cities whole oceans apart that are exactly the same but just pay to a different god and paint their cities a different color?

It's lazy bullshit.

I like the design a lot, its much more interesting than the typical planeswalker design(a + a - and an ult that threatens to win the game)

>>48732172
she didn't try and fight him until he told her that he owed her nothing.

which is a lie, he swore an oath, he broke that oath.

and maybe now that means nothing to people but in the olde'n'tymes breaking an oath was something you DIED over.

Nahiri only fought him to win his respect, though, he didn't take it that way when she started to beat Avacyn to death.

>>48732311

Gods make sense for homogeneous cultures to arise even leagues apart. All of Theros is enshrouded by the same Nyx, the arm of Helios or Erebos or Kruphix will be the same no matter where you are. And their cultures descend from these figureheads.

Nahiri was already fucked up way before she went to fight Sorin, and she went to fight Sorin not ask for his help.
The very second she started spending time on a cocoon under the ground because mortals were meaningless, she vecame a potential villain. And the progression of her story was no surprise.

It's still lazy even if one big (un)happy family manages the whole turf, every area favored by a different god should clearly reflect their personalities. The only example of this are the fucking temples which as little shit altars when it should be a city wide culture-clash.

In the end it just betrays how superficial WotC's understanding and care for mediterranean cultures is.

LEARN FUCKING GRAMMAR.

then consider there is more than one type of madness. Extreme emotional overreaction is one of them.
Or consider that the whole reconstructing Zendikar thing was meant to illustrate the decent into madness. Especially as descending into madness was a massive theme in the block.

>>48732608

>>48732648

>Well, thanks for nothing faggot, at leas tell me where the fuck is the dragon

Extreme emotional overreaction is not madness, is stupidity and a shitty temper.

And descent into madness is because of emrakul, and nahiri was not affected by emrakul cuz she had changed the leylines to protect herself from eldrazi

U waifu a shit

>>48732711
>Feroz was a saint, and he was the rule. Urza, Freyalise, Bolas, Taysir, they're the most memorable because they were the fucked up lot among ok-ish people and we love to tag on the extreme personalities.
That's just not true. Jaya Ballard was violent and impulsive (much moreso than Chandra), Leshrac, Tevesh Szat, Liliana Vess, and Ob Nixilis are monoblacks, Serra was a desperate escapist, and it was commonly portrayed that unnamed oldwalkers were paranoid and avoidant to the core. I remember one appearing as an inanimate object just to avoid notice.

>>48732773
>She also didn't knew if sorin was on innistrad.
but she had a place to start looking.
She didn't have that with Sorin.

>Well, thanks for nothing faggot, at leas tell me where the fuck is the dragon
So, she could have completely ignore that this person had just betrayed a promised that she'd endangered her plane, and thousands of years of her life for?

Are you seriously saying that you would just let that shit slide?

>Extreme emotional overreaction is not madness,
yes, yes it is. Depression is a form on insanity. Mania is a form of Insanity. Paranoia is a form of insanity. Obsession is a form of insanity.
Irrationality tied to or caused by extreme emotions.

>And descent into madness is because of emrakul
No the theme of the stories as writers of the story, not just events within actions of the story.
Remember the Gitrog Monster story. No eldrazi mentioned, but still falling into madness.
Narrative theme.

I think Nahiri is a villian, a decently written one, whose actions are inexcusable even if I understand what led to them.
Pointing out when you are being stupid does not mean that I think she's done nothing wrong.

I am really annoyed that Innistrad's whole lore is about how the ultra-powerful and completely impossible to permanently kill demons were the lords of the plane while the angels and humans desperately staved off their attacks and those of the monsters around them.

AVR's dark note is that while Avacyn has returned to save humanity from being utterly fucked without her protection, every demon except Griselbrand is back in gear and Griselbrand's essence will take on another form soon enough.

And then we go back to the plane and there's two fucking demons.

Two. One to promote delirum early and Ormendahl, our completely fucking irrelevant subplot that has no resolution except maybe an offhand mention he got Memerakul'd in a fucking artbook.

No demons at all in Eldritch Moon. Not even an Eldrazi/Demon hybrid. No resolution for the plot after Emrakul gets locked up. Does Olivia immediately betray the humans when the danger has passed? Do the werewolves somehow overcome the fact that every werewolf besides Arlinn that doesn't fucking hate being a werewolf is a murderer and live in harmony with humans somehow? Do the zombie-makers stop being insane shitheads? What do they do with the now-insane but probably still immortal demons? What happened with the Lunarch Council becoming an Ormendahl/Emrakul cult? Did the entire Flight of Herons survive, or is Sigarda one angel that is SOMEHOW supposed to do the work of hundreds despite doing fucking nothing this entire block?

There was zero satisfying resolution in this plotline. Only tentacles and disappointment.

The very first planeswalker we saw was an evil douchebag (Kuthuman from the novel "Arena") who held blood sports and murdered the winner.

>>48725809
This card is terrible

What ticks me off is that they started writing Sorin differently so they could write him out and make way for this diversity walker.

He's very different from the way he was written in original Innistrad and at the start of Tarkir to Shadows.

I'll take it back if they print a new Sorin or he gets another article.

>>48730089
Wasn't mirage explicitly set n just a part of dominaria though? As opposed to representing the entire plane?

>>48735110
Not really. He was written like he was the last time he had to work with another planeswalker: Nissa in Teeth of Akoum. He's always been a raging asshole cunt who should've learned by this point that doing so tended to get people to yell "fuck you" and try and do shit ro piss you off and get you to go away. Sorin's an idiot and mbodies every single smug quip flavor text on every counterspell ever printed, which is amazing because he's not even blue.

As for Nahiri, yeah the bitch is nuts and went a little overboard in her quest to piss Sorin off, but oldwalkers. Plane forr a plane is their logic. Sorin let her plane get eldrazi'd so his plane gets eldrazi'd back. Besides, Emrakul was going to fuck places up anyway, she basically just made it start with Innistrad instead of Kamigawa or whatever.

>>48735301
All your arguments are shit.
>Sorin couldn't help with Nissa because she was racist and refused to listen.
Nissa's brainpower is below squirrel level and Sorin knew, everyone else he interacted with in Zendikar was either evil or retarded, you just can't behave like a saint when you're surrounded by self-destructive idiots.
>A little overboard
>little
Planeswalkers never purposedly destroyed planes. Most planar collapses were already happening before walkers intervened and the two times Urza blew up a plane were epic legendary events we are meant to be in awe and terror of. Not casual shit that happens because "lol oldwalkers".
Also, Nahiri is completely sane, she is also completely evil and the most egocentric living walker.
>Lol emrakul was eating planes anyway
No she wasn't, she was hanging on the blind eternities and Nahiri literally forced her to fuck up a world she didn't wanted to consume and was distressed about.
Nahiri fucked up so hard she hurt the feelings of an old one proxi.

You're waifu is the shitlord of shitlords.

>now everybody's getting into too much of a pissing contest to back down

>suddenly released(not by Sorin)
>though Sorin knows she is released and certain to be intensely pissed, takes no action to resolve problem
>she gets out and her home is obliterated because Sorin not only didn't help, but prevented her from helping as well
>Nahiri loses what remains of her fragile sanity and decides to genocide Innistrad

Either party swallowing their pride for 5 seconds would have resolved the situation.

Well apparently because Wizards hired a consultant to help them design a black character that wasn't a stereotype. Then they made their non-stereotypical black character have multiple abilities that steal from opponents :^)

>>48737657
Going off the card you wouldn't know that. She's more like a thief on her card. If her +0 is there to represent assassination, why doesn't it destroy? Why can she do it to herself? Is the -1 the assassination ability? Did she kill Brago in a really slow and torturous way? The card is so poorly designed it's a marvel of the universe.

>>48725809
Was Waller a DCAU creation? She is evil, right?

>>48735159
>Wasn't mirage explicitly set n just a part of dominaria though?

Yeah, Tamuraa (sp) was basically the Africa of Dominaria, and had a lot of African fantasy to it.

It's something I have no problem with of course, but it's funny that people will use that as an example of Magic always being "SJW" when they forget that Mirage was basically all Africa vis a vis Theros and its "diversity party Greece".

Although, in the end:
>Actually giving a shit about the pre-teen targeted shitty Magic """""literature"""""

Not really at all.

Waller is a humongously fat, no nonsense manager type.

Kaya shares basically no traits with her except being black.

You can trace all the SJW bullshit back to when they hired Trick Jarrett.

They literally paid a company whose business model is "That's a real nice [thing] you have there. It'd be a shame if someone called it racist." to "consult" on this character.

I don't pay much attention to their "public" face very much, how long has Trick Faggot been around for? Seems like since Theros it's been hardcore marxist, so if he's been around since then, you certainly have a point.

There's been black people in Magic since the beginning.

Innistrad has one job. Which is fails because negros cosplaying in gothic horror is patently ridiculous. Same reason Theros fails. As much as we may kid, Greeks aren't actually black (just not white).

Jamuraa, on the other hand, is part of Dominaria. There's white people there who aren't from there, and black people in other parts of Dominaria who are from Jamuraa originally. There's also a sort of not-Berber theme going on too, which is another ethnic group. Its all believable and not pandering.

Sooner or later, WotC will probably make a plane based on the Viking civilization. And that plane will surely include black-skinned female vikings. And you'll be sitting there arguing with us how it's totally not!Scandinavia and that niggers in a not!Viking setting is perfectly plausible because muh creative freedom.

>>48738960

>>48738967
Any of them? Even in terms of just regurgitating early European aesthetics, it's well within reason

>>48738960
The actual problem is in 2011 when innistrad was release, there were a few black people in the art. It was a believable minority in a gothic setting. in 2016 when shadows was released these other ethnicities are shoved to the forefront making it seem like a majority.

>>48738967
That's most likely a bait, but I'll bite.
A setting in Africa with African gods and mythos I would say. I would read/watch this actually.
Or a setting with different lands that can explain the difference of skin tone.

>>48738967
In classic Magic, they come from part of Dominaria, as I said. They have their own culture and history, which is developed. Having planes that are one dimensional gimmicks leads to this state.

been playing since revised, never have I actually heard someone voice a complaint that they were not represented in the game. They actually care about the mechanics and how it plays and not check marks on a diversity check list.

And i for one cant wait until they leave. it will make the community better

>>48739012
>making it seem like a majority.
Go do a search for human, angel and vampire creatures in Shadows over Innistrad and see how many black people you can spot, I saw 4 (out of 77 cards) but maybe I missed some.

Also how are they at the forefront when none of the legendaries or planeswalkers are black?

>>48739145
>been playing since revised, never have I actually heard someone voice a complaint that they were not represented in the game.
probably because the group was overwhelmingly white.

People do talk about being unrepresented, or underrepresented in MEDIA, of which MtG is a part of.
To give a real example that's currently happening, whitewashing in movies. Look at the last dozen or so major hollywood movies set in China or Japan, who many of them had white actors as the lead? To give you a hint, The Great Wall is coming out, and the guy one the posters is not Chinese.

You on the other hand are complaining that it's not enough that all of the major characters in the last set were white, there were black people in the background.

>>48739191
>Hollywood

Why would you even watch that? Watch an actual Chinese production. It will be a hell of lot less gay.

The idea that Hollywood is in any way out to make anything "white" is hilarious though.

>>48738991
On the flip side I can almost guarantee you'd use the not!africa excuse if they shoved a bunch of whitey's in a plane that's based off sub-Sarahan Africa.

Looking through Mirage, most of the cards are pretty ambiguous. Lots of black people. But there is still some clearly white people.

>>48738766
How is it forced? You and everyone else keeps saying how it's "blatant pandering" and "forced diversity" with very little of you actually articulating why. The closest I've seen to coherent reasoning is the fact they hired a consultant, which I'll concede is fucking idiotic; but the rest of the time it's just been yelling with no actual arguments. Creative fiction isn't beholden to being an identical replication of life or culture. Inspiration is not, and has never been a 1:1 recreation. Similarly, not a single WotC rep has gone on the record saying "we made innistrad mostly black aren't we so progressive." They've merely shrugged and not made a big fuss out of it. Which brings me to another point, for all the yelling and screaming around here about the SJWs very few times have I seen the biggest fuss coming from the SJWs (and most of the time I do see it its on /v/ which makes sense, video games are a bigger market than board/card games) It's almost always reactionaries like you who just spout off memes without backing themselves up.

>>48739228
Because America has more asian actors than china has white actors.
And Chinese productions at least have white actors to represent the American or European side in their movies, even in basically propaganda films like Ip Man.

>The idea that Hollywood is in any way out to make anything "white" is hilarious though.
they aren't out to make things white, they are unwilling to let film leads be asian, so they force in a white main character even for films set in asia.
This was also the case for blacks for a LONG time, and they still get less lead parts than their demographic would be.
Which of the Avengers who have their own series are black? DC universe?
But they should be happy with having black supporting characters. While people like you get upset that there are black background characters, because that's pushing an agenda and nothing you think is an agenda.

I don't actually have a problem with that movie, it looks decent.
But... 37 ronin: Starring Keanu Reeves as are hero. The Last Samauri: Starring Tom Cruise as our hero. etc.

One movie isn't a problem, that one movie can be fine. As a trend it's a problem.
It's like the Bechdel Test, it's not a good test for an individual movie on whether female characters are given significant parts outside of love interests. For example Gravity fails this test. But across a population of movies can reveal trends.

>>48739385
I think they are supposed to be a sort of berber-like people.

As I said, though, back in the Mirage day, they'd give the artist some general idea of what they were going for and then just use what they were sent. Pros and cons. I like the grittier, more realistic look of a lot of oldschool cards. But on the other hand, there's lots of bad artwork and even ridiculous artwork. I think Mirage actually has some of the worst.

>>48739524
Keanu Reeves is halfbreed Asian. Tom Cruise is an American advisor to Japan in an era when the Japanese were importing (mostly European) advisors to modernize. I think the Last Samurai is a dumb movie, but did you even see it?

>>48739551
I should have specified, that Keanu Reeves, the man is half Asian.

Tom Cruise's character in the movie in question is an American (he is too).

I really hate Hollywood, but come on.

>>48739524
The Last Samurai is also justified in that it's historically inspired, to be fair

And it's not just white people that do this. Korea, Japan and China *love* casting each other as villains and themselves as protagonists

>>48739603
>The Last Samurai is also justified in that it's historically inspired

Except that the guy Tom Cruise is playing is supposed to be French and not American.

>>48739658
It's still not quite as absurd as a bunch of writers sitting on a cubicle and saying GUYS WHAT IF WE MAKE A MOVIE ON JAPAN AND CAST A WHITE PERSON AS PROTAGONIST

The Last Samurai is a story about an America advisor who "goes native" in Japan. It is not a very good or original movie, but there is nothing wrong with the casting at all. Also, the title does not refer to Tom Cruise's character.

>>48739551
I did, it's making a story about conflict a major historical conflict within Japan, about a white guy.
Oh, it's historically inspired, though inaccurate there >>48739658
but it made the focus of a Japanese story about a white guy.

Same with Keanu in 37 ronin. It's still part of a trend of not having asian actors getting lead roles even in films set in Asia about Asian stories.


To give a different example. Individually each of the many many superhero films aren't supermonochrome and pushing out non-white actors. Most are pretty good.
But then you look at the spread, and out of all of those, who many with a solo lead have a non-white lead actor?
Only Catwoman.
Now there is a problem, even if taken individually none of those movies were problems in regards to racial representation.

>>48739729
No, that is a quite normal method telling a story, through the eyes of an outsider, often of the culture of the viewer.

>>48732286

I'm convinced that the devs forgot Mirage block exists

>>48739734
No, the problem is that, at least part of the reason it got the green light to be made was that it had a white lead.

It's not like >>48739729
>729 put it.
It's them going "I don't know if there will be an audiance for this movie because people won't be able to relate to it/the lead" to scripts set in Asia UNTIL they get one that has a white protagonist.

They go out to write a story with a white protagonist, they just keep deciding not to make the movie until one comes along with a white protagonist. Which is why they individually make sense, but result in a trend that means that Asian actors don't get to be leads in movies even when they are set in Asia.

>>48739763
Probably not, its more like they forgot Dominaria exists. Kaervek got a card in the last Dominarian set, and Teferi got another card in the 2014 Commander set.

Innistrad is kinda like that - everything is generally black/something else, like how Zendikar had lots of blue.

>>48739748
That is because of the source material. In the MCU for instance Black Panther and Luke Cage are about to get a movie and a show respectively. On DC's part Aquaman's actor isn't white and they actually changed the character for that, and there's also probably going to be a Cyborg movie if the DC movies don't go belly up before

>>48738896
Neah, $80-$100 max.

>>48739954
>That is because of the source material
except that in most cases the race is actually not an important part of the source material character.

And the reason they were all white in the source material, is that a lot of those comics date from a time when publishers were against having black main characters in comic books.

Individually the arguements make sense for each story, but then you get the spread and holy fuck there aren't any black lead actors. NOW there is starting to be some change to that, but it took a long time. Not as long as it took for there to get some change in the comics, but it's the twenty first century, it shouldn't have taken this long.

But that's not my main problem, not even a big problem. And I'm mostly fine with them working to fix it now, just get a little faster on that please.

No my problem is asshole complaining about there being black characters in the fucking background as if it's some sort of terrible agenda pushing.
All of the lead characters are still white, but having black characters in the background or heaven forbid supporting characters, is a real legitamate problem of overrepresentation. But non-whites complaining about being underrepresentation when they don't have any lead characters is totally unreasonable.

It's the fucking hypocracy of that shit that I've got the big problem with.

Innistrad has lesbians. Were lesbians a part of the civilization that Innistrad is based on?
Surely, they were. Although lesbians were not allowed to practice their orientation, lesbians existed in Europe anno 1 500.

Yes, they were. Although the concept was a product of imagination, people in the medieval and Reneissance age burned thousands (millions?) of "witches" on stakes, and many believed in ghosts and other horrors.
Innistrad has niggers. Were niggers part of the civilization that Innistrad is based on?
No. They were not. So why are they in Innistrad? Because some SJW in WotC decided to put them there because muh equality, despite being completely out of place.

Now, rather than changing the subject ("Why do you care about it anyway?"), try instead to make a compelling argument for why niggers should exist in Innistrad.

>>48738882

You are aware Innistrad is a planet with more than one continent, right?

Part of the lore is across the sea they have weretigers and shit, and I'm willing to guess Innistrad's black citizenry, who have been around since the original block, are descended from people who came from there long ago. Probably because there were more angels to fight back the dark over on this continent or something.

It's /tg/.

Of course people here are autistic enough to get upset about it.

Why?
Intelligence is not blue. Waller is a master strategist and plot magician on Batman levels, but she's not a scientist or a nerd.

Guilds aren't different cultures, that's like saying a plastic surgeon from malibu and an enviromentalist from santa monica are from different cultures.

>>48745541
They really are, if you go deep enough into a guilds territory you might as well be in a different country.

Bullshit there were no white people in Tarkir. Does Anafenza Foremost look Asian to you? This blue-eyed chick? Arashin Foremost? Dromoka Dunecaster?

On the other side, there are only one or two cards I could see that might be viewed as black people, but if you viewed any of the above as asians you should probably also view said cards as tanned asians.

I'm not saying you're jumping at shadows, but that's exactly what I'm saying.

>>48745499

U is also about trickery and preparation through knowledge as much as nerdery, as well as "taking control" of others - Waller tends to run organisations that are also really akin to Dimir, which is U/B. In fact I'd say Suicide Squad is basically a U/B group.

Waller is in a sense split between her U/B clandestine shit like that, and he W/U stuff in the government.

>>48745563
Same as if you go from New York's downtown to Kansas City outskirts.
It's still the same culture with added regionalisms and local traditions.

Im not sure why this angers you. Who gives a fuck? Im sure Fiora is a cosmopolitan enough place that kinds of motherfuckers live there.

I dont like her hair though. How hair is styled is specifically a cultural thing, and her hair says, "I am from 21st century america" and that pulls me out of the fiction

I would have said Mayan if you'd asked me, nothing really arabic about what I'm looking at.

Braids are pretty common across many cultures.

You got long hair, you make a braid.

Or whatever it is.

I don't care that much about how hair is done.

>Close to no black people play magic
There are shitloads of black people that play Magic. There are no women though. In my entire life I have probably met no more than five biological females that played Magic. I would hazard there are only slightly more women playing Magic than trans people.
