I don't even know if we can call it that. You have to go looking for his fandom, they tend to stick to his videos. I assume they also turn up on Reddit, but I haven't taken the time to look for them there.
I also forgot to mention that WotC seems to like him a lot. I find that funny considering how often he wags his finger at them.

while he does seem to criticize WotC, it all seems like constructive criticism to me. like I just watched his most recent video about standard/event promos and he's not wrong in saying that adding more incentive to attend events for free shit also adds incentive to keep buying the products.
>>
>>50466068
He played Magic a long time ago.
Then he sold his stuff.
Then he got back in and started making videos.
At some point his videos took off in a hard way.
It is a mystery.

I actually hate him, I used to like his stuff for the reasons you stated, he was passionate and but inoffensive. HOWEVER, those Cunt Female MTG podcasters joined up with him and those fucks keep trying to start a Gamer Gate like issue in mtg. I really hate the direction that game has gone, I play mtg for that brief escape from the real world issues. I lost so many close friends to the SJW bullshit and lost my best friend of 13 years to the trans mental illness. When I play mtg or read the lore it's because I want to take a break from the real world. Now WotC is working hard to throw fucking gender and race identity politics into my fantasy card game. And fucks like the professor is not helping.

I know how you feel. If I wanted to see the gender/race/identity political bullshit, I would put on the news or go outside. I don't need that shit in my games that take a break of this shit. Why do they need to push for a strong female character, when there's plenty of strong female characters right in front of their eyes. It's fucking ridiculous, and in the end run it's going to bite them in the ass. I don't know how, but this is going to hurt them more then they think.
>>
>>50466476
I agree, it's asinine to make Pale white Chandra now 50% Indian in world were there are only two white men, her dad and the guy that killed her dad. If you wanted diversity, just have Saheeli join the group I am cool with that. But changing characters we have know for 10 years is just catering to SJW's. I feel that between this, the neglect of modern, all of mtgo problems, and the heartstone like transformation of Standard will kill the game.

Eh... I wish they had just said they were Agender, because they don't have a binary gender to even not adhere to. Which I totally don't mind at all, but by calling them non-binary they are really pandering.

I'm a female visible minority - sorry, I wanted to tick all the boxes for you but I'm not a jew, male in a female body, and I've only teasingly or innocently kissed girls - and the shit that people complain about as "social wrongs" blow my fucking mind.

I mean I don't blow a gasket at non-binary genders in a game that has run the gamut of sci-fi and fantasy, but it is definitely an eye-roll in the context of the way things have been going. But the elevation of some of these issues to the level of social morality is incredibly harmful in light of actual social evils in the world that are 100% alive and going strong, today, and in plain sight.

People want to sell cards, and magazines, and media impressions. I get it. And as long as people buy into this shit in a measurable, it will be an economically supported belief that this kind of mindless and derogatory pandering is a good business move. It's just funny in a sick sort of way that you have to take a risky moral stand now to make good games from a genuine place, and that it's the supposed moral guardians that make it risky.

But the idea that only white male nerds - who want to hurt or discredit important social movements and return to "glory days" of the old status quo - see the damage and stupidity of the overreach of SJW imperatives... that idea is demonstrably without substance.

magic already has a shit ton of women in their products, in fact i think magic products are the most women friendly throughout the ages than anything else ive ever been into. its the player base that drives women players away and honestly its not even that bad compared to anything else. mostly just a small group of assholes who give a shit about this
>>Magic needs to be more inclusive
there is literally nothing wrong with this as long as they do not go making random characters gaggot or nigger or whatever for no reason, just make new characters for that. if your talking about player then i can image anything i would care less about, more players isnt bad
>>Sexy Playmats should be banned
this is dumb although i would not care if it were to happen. my one argument for it is that game stores are supposed to be kid friendly and i just dont think thats something people should be allowed to make children have to be around. should be a per store policy i guess, pro magic can enforce it in its own way because fuck pro magic and no one should give it the time of day
>>Making someone feel uncomfortable is a DQ rule in a tournament
this should be a case by case thing. you cant just be a massive fucking asshole or threaten someone or shit like that without consequences but what is considered making someone uncomfortable seems like its just SJW b8. then again pro magic is fucking stupid and everyone cheats in it anyway so who really cares?
>>Magic needs more women employees
literally 0 reason why this is bad unless they are hiring women over more qualified men for no reason which is not only bad but illegal and should be reported
>>Magic needs more LGBTBBQ, fat, and disabled cards
eh, i dont really see why this is bad within reason assuming new characters are made instead of changing old ones. obviously dont try to push a character that everyone hates just because its faggot

I really don't think the choice of "agender" vs "nonbinary" is an issue tho. Like??? Ok, they used "not man and woman" instead of "neither man nor woman or anything else". That's chill. It's a tough call to make.

Yes, you fucking retards made Wizards think flanking was "too complex" and have killed that keyword. Fuck all of you.
>>
>>50477138
This
In theory adding more inclusiveness to your character range is good, but it practice it almost ALWAYS leads to sloppy, lazily designed characters, usually because they use the token-ness as an excuse to spend less time developing the character and they KNOW they can get away with it since there's always a legion of drones that will defend even the laziest written characters as long as they're a minority that's in a traditionally non-minority role

College Professor who makes MTG videos on the side.

Realized his youtube channel was like a second job, with the number of videos he put out.

College asked him to teach more classes; And he didn't want to but needed additional income,

Started a patreon to see if people liked his stuff enough that he could continue to make mtg videos instead.

His videos are alright, and some of them are quite informative for MTG Newbies.

Literally the only thing that's still receiving updates for Windows Phones, is the part of the OS that breaks non-IE browsers.

There are long-standing issues - serious ones, like the sound drivers silently shutting off making it impossible for you to hear your calls or alarms - that they haven't even attempted to fix.

But you can be 100% sure that whatever phone browser you got off the store is gonna stop working every 3 months. I think non-scammers have basically stopped making them.

Something I always wonder with this women and LGBT pushing is why?

As long as the game is fun I don't really care what they do with the lore, but I don't see the purpose it from a business perspective. Do they think that adding more diverse characters will attract players? I really do not think that a lack of female characters is why there are so few female mtg players (and in fact I've always thought MtG was already very good to its female characters compared to many other male-focused franchises)

Nowadays you're not even allowed to say that men and women are different but it's still true, and a fantasy cardgame that involves a lot of math is just inherently much more catered towards men than women.
>>
>>50479851
No idea what you are talking about. The Professor is like 90% Bang on my own opinion.

Those 80 dollar wooden deckboxes? Yeah they are one of the best things ever. Yes they are worth 100ish dollars total. No, I'm never going to buy that because I'd rather put it towards chase rares, but I'd love one as a gift.
>>
>>50476038
What a pointless post. Obviously there's nothing wrong with hiring women or minoritrs but the statement they should hire more implies that they're actively choosing to not hire them. If qualified people apply they will be hired, they are not being stopped. Same thing like with Carmack and the Oculus project. They hire qualified people who apply.
>>
>>50480601
>Do they think that adding more diverse characters will attract players?
Yes.

As hard as it may be to understand, people like seeing characters in media they enjoy that are the same sex as them. Same goes for race.
>>
>>50480713
And do you honestly think that a shortage of female characters is what is holding back new female players from joining? I think primarily it's the culture at FNMs and other magic events being complete boy's clubs. Not even in the bad sense mind you, just the fact that 19 out of 20 players at any given event will be guys makes it very intimidating for women to join. Which is a shame, but not fixable by adding more women to the lore.

Next to that I still think that just inherently, less women are interested in (card)games than men and no matter how hard you push any minority, men will be the vast majority in mtg
>>
>>50466330
God it annoys me when people call Trans a mental illness, as though it makes them edgy and hardcore. Even among the left, in all but the most stupid SJWs, trans is accepted as a mental illness. It's just not stigmatized, and the best treatment is often(but not always) transition. There's a reason most places require you to tiger approval from a psychologist before you can start transition.
>>
>Do they think that adding more diverse characters will attract more players?

Sort of, but mostly due to sloppy market research. In the last 18-24 months there had been a huge SJW push against magic being actively discriminatory and if they wanted to save their player base they would need to immediately start being über inclusive.

Due to their sloppy research practices, this small batch of telephone pole screamers were loud enough and repetitive enough that WotC thought they were a much bigger part of the base than they were. (which is to say, effectively 0)
This led to designing and catering to a demographic who not only did not make up any part of the player base, (which very few parts of which actively LIKE the changes, though the overwhelming majority is neutral) but continued to make demands of the company they never had any intent of supporting solely to make it less desirable for the plague of white man.


TL;DR fix hasbro's polling methods and shit will get better.

But why not start where they actually can? It's not like they can mandate a female quota at FNMs. And it's not hurting you in the fucking least to maybe see a few more non-cheesecake women in Magic lore and art, because all he monsters and burly action dudes are also all still there.

>And it's not hurting you in the fucking least to maybe see a few more non-cheesecake women in Magic lore and art

Of all the fantasy works out there, I think MTG actually contains the least amount of cheesecake. Not saying it doesn't exist but it's very sporadic and not common.

market researchers are lazy and retarded. instead of doing their jobs properly and performing studies, polls, censuses, etc. they choose to look towards social media and what's currently trending with the young kids. businesses will always do what they THINK will earn them more money, and right now they think that if they can appeal to the SJW crowd then they will get more sales from that demographic.

First of all calm down, getting pissy will not prove me wrong nor you right.

Second, as I already said I mostly approve of MtG's diversity. We already have a ton of interesting female characters, constantly go to planes where the majority of people isn't white, and some of the LGBT pushes I thought were genuinely great, like the homosexual couple commander we just got which at first was a very subtle story element in a flavortext. The story of Alesha where they used transgenderism as a vessel for the story about how Mardu is about individual expression was also great (although the writing was very cheesy)

Diversity pushing becomes obnoxious however when it breaks the immersion in the story. The random strong independent lesbian couple in the SOI story arc for example seemed really jarring to me and gives this feeling of "I'm not reading about a world, I'm reading someone's story with a social agenda". I also dislike the push for the lesbian coupling of Nissa and Chandra that came completely out of nowhere. However, what falls as jarring and what falls as fitting is very personal and I can't objectively say where the line is.

I also never suggested the diversity push should be stopped or that I took offense to it (I honestly mostly do not care), but I was curious why they would push like this, in which case >>50482689
>>50481388
are probably right. The vocal minority warping market research into pandering for a crowd that just isn't really there.

You don't get it. Ashiok was designed slightly before they started pushing the SJW agenda and his genderlessness is threated differently because she doesn't care about it, doesn't see a reason to disclose sexual matters in non-sexual settings and is amused by any distress this may cause.

The aetherborn are talked about as if they had a gender and then decided to be special snowflakes and play the genderfluid card for giggles instead of a race that should comprehend gender as humans do because they don't have it. The legendary one shagging the grandma is even called a lesbian when you couldn't call a genderless being either hetero or homo because it doesn't have a heteronormativity to deviate from and it'd only be homosexual if it was in a relationship with another aetherborn.

It's newspeak bullshit used to make a subset of the faggots that hang on social media but don't buy product and have never set foot in a LGS happy.
>>
>>50466476
>Why do they need to push for a strong female character, when there's plenty of strong female characters right in front of their eyes.
Have you not notized when women say "woman", "women", "female", etc. they mean "like myself"?

Men can admire other men, even other men who have absolutely nothing in common and whom we don't actively look up to. Women can't, either you're telling them they specifically are the best thing ever, or you hate women in general. You imply that the minimal effort they are comfortable with isn't enough? You hate women. You admire a woman who is naturally more gifted than themselves? You hate women.

Women never get what they want because companies are not gonna start producing 3.7 billion versions of the same product just to shut up whailing banshees that can't be pleased, but they're not gonna just say that, so they shift the blame on us.
>>
>>50471433

>It's just funny in a sick sort of way that you have to take a risky moral stand now to make good games from a genuine place, and that it's the supposed moral guardians that make it risky.
I replied to a comment on how a book "lacked LGBT+ representation" with "You don't have a right for characters to disclose their sexuality and genders to you like you're they sex gestapo" and it caused a month long SJW civil war about wether non-heteronormatives have or not a right to privacy in their sexual lives and yadda yadda until the review page was nuked. I wasn't even shitposting, I genuinely believe nobody has a right to have other people's shit disclosed to them.

SJWs are little mental tyrants and the most selfish people I've had the displeasure to read of.

>>
>>50479232
This, I think is what bothers me the most.
Non-binary is defined by sex, it's literally sexualizing characters and it's forceably pushed by the same people who whine incessantly about how we have to stop sexualizing characters.

It's intellectual dishonesty. Sexuality does not belong in any plot that isn't erotic, romantic or deals with discrimination. "Oh I happen to be gay and will say so every five minutes" well go fuck yourself fag, I'm too busy throwing lightning bolts at pumped-up AIDS elves to care about what you want to put up your asshole but can't because this is a PG13 product.

Yes, current business managers, marketing and publicitary agents are the cusp of the "strong men make good times, weak men make bad times" cycle. They're the first generation of Gen X scions overprotected by their parents so they wouldn't have it as hard as Xers had with Boomers. Lot's of daddy and mommy's contacts getting little sonny a job he didn't desserve or was qualified to perform, lots of nepotism and corruption, all in the vain attempt to make weak ass children succeed.

It's not working and managers from both the previos and upcoming generations can see why. Women in general don't like games. Just like men in general don't like games. Pandering to tumblr fujoshits with "flavor" faggots and niggers is never gonna sell a booster. Pandering to competitive women with gameplay is. Market research keeps telling them to pander to sportswomen and dorito gremlins, but "market research" keeps telling them to pander to tumblr and twitter instead and since they're weak ass faggots who can't stand the thought of being called "sexist", they bow down to the people who will never buy the product because it's nerdshit for grognards plus they spend all their money in overpriced fake coffee and ugly glasses they don't need.

I once held a one-man protest at a theater against a stage showing of Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, informing people that it was a highly stereotypical and offensive depiction of autism in a civil manner.

Am I autistic? Yes.
Did I find it stereotypical? Yes.
Did I find it offensive? Yes.
Did the author know SHIT about autism? No, and he admitted this. Yet he still made it the sole trait of the protagonist.
Was the book good? No, the book was shit and if he wasn't a fucking autist it would've just been a shit book.

But at the same time I respect their right to show what they please.
>>
>>50490785
Ashiok was just around the time they started the pandering, it hadn't fully taken over the design team yet, but it was there.
Ashiok's deal was that it's sex was supposed to be indeterminate since it was intended to be a nightmare come alive, something you can't tell what it is but it looks close to you so it unsettles you. Unfortunately the trans-fats saw this as "Nonbinary genderqueer transnigger" or whatever the made up gender was popular that minute and started talking about something they had no interest in and likely never would in a positive light. Wizards saw this and saw the boom in sales from theros and thought "Well this must be getting us money" and decided market research wasn't needed so they entered the era of a product's traits being solely defined by those who don't use or care about the product.
Shit's gonna be hilarious when wizards inevitably gets stabbed in the back by their beloved tumblrites though, it always is.

You're wrong.
First, there's almost zero cheesecake in Magic. You can't even make a 60 card singleton deck of high-sexual content cards even after adding 20 basic lands.

Second, for there to be more of something there needs to be less of something else. Card numbers are set, you cannot just add more SJW approved women and minorities artworks without removing other artworks.

The difference is everyone bent over backwards to yell to the heavens that the atherborn are so non-binary and special precious perfect creaturees and you must love them, yet MaRo and Doug refuse to name what Ashiok is even after the aetherborn were introduced because it's not our business.

Why couldn't they threat the aetherborn like they do Ashiok? It's a much more mature way to deal with non-heteronormativity, it's individual and not your business fucking fujoshits gtfo reeee.

He doesn't only sell magic. He's a merchant, literally buying shit from distributors and re-selling it to smaller stores and normal people.

Seconded.

I'll take it even further. If I see people playing with real $50+ cards in unsanctioned formats like Cube and EDH I will straight up assume they're retarded before saying a word to them.

I fucking pay $70 a day to ski and $40 for rentals and possibly $5 for a hot chocolate treat afterwards because I understand that mountains are large and they tend to require multi-million dollar grooming machines that can't be substituted by a bunch of guys with shovels.

I get that. You gotta pay some motherfuckers to get your ski on.

What I don't get is paying hundreds of fucking dollars for some goddamn paper. I'd happily pay my store $15 for nothing just to sit there for an afternoon. What I don't want to do is pay $1000 for some fucking equipment that will be useless in <2 years.

The popular response is that it supports the time and energy it takes Wizards to develop their IP. You're not paying for the cardboard itself, you're paying for the fact that WotC develops these pieces of IP and supports infrastructure/shops that support tournament play.

The argument somewhat falls apart for cards that are no longer being printed, but even then you can argue that the sale of such cards keeps shops in business so they can provide those services.

Also, IP laws are finnicky in that WotC needs to equally enforce them in all circumstances or risk not being able to enforce them at all.
>>
>>50509747
You know as well as I do it's obvious who needlessly spent a fortune on a Cube and who did the smart thing and spent $0.10 for color prints that look fucking excellent. One or two pieces of pimp is hardly egregious.

>>50509754
I wish I could spend more time talking to you.

>supports infrastructure/shops that support tournament play
Fuck to the no. Wizards throws more nails on the road than helps stores. It introduces stupid gimmicks for prereleases (two-headed giant or "pick your guild") that just makes it harder for stores to keep up on all the new bullshit that changes every year. They can't seem to fucking decided on a consistent promo standard so stores have to deal with whiny bitch players complaining about the inconsistency. Wizards allows big box stores to sell product, which takes sales from their stores AND their stores have to host events whereas Walmart doesn't. They finagle with MM or Eternal Masters providing no transparency which only results in even more wasted time from bitching from players.

Do you know what would help? If Wizards forced parents and grandparents to walk through the fucking door of a games store instead of giving them the convenience of snagging shit at the checkout at Target. Wizards just needs to take a fucking cut to profitability from the extra sales made at Gamestop and fucking TRULY support their dedicated brick and mortars by focusing all the traffic to them.

Making the card was pandering, making them the face card of the group hug deck was fucking hilarious.

>>50491383
Considering they completely cut all of the homo stuff out of a greek inspired setting, I'd say it's just pandering. Theros had a single reference to homos, and that's all WotC were prepared to put in. People seemed to like it so now they decided to pander to it and expand on that single reference.

It wasn't until recently that they've even seemed comfortable with putting positive relationships on cards. The flavour text is shit talking most of the time.

>Considering they completely cut all of the homo stuff out of a greek inspired setting
Homosexuality between adults was more of a social taboo in ancient Greece than it is in the modern world; the public perception that it was commonplace or socially acceptable is a meme.

Pederasty on the other hand was fairly common as part of a mentoring role, but I doubt we'd ever see it depicted on cards for obvious reasons.

It'd drive the price down more if the vendor's just sold the products at MSRP rather than ripping them open and taking out the good cards to sell them at a higher profit than the sealed product.
>>
>>50510585

>It'd drive the price down more if the vendor's just sold the products at MSRP

Not really.

Cards become far less liquid once they reach the hands of the players, most people simply aren't interested in selling back cards once they've bought them and if the supply isn't liquid and available then it can't drive down the price.

>Men buy jerseys with other men's names on them for exhorbitant prices. Women are incapable of sincere admiration.
how does stating that men spend too much money on sports jerseys prove that women are incapable of admiration? I'm not seeing the connection. The one thing you've proven with those statements is that you have a gross misunderstanding of social structures and dynamics. You've given no reason as to WHY the men are buying the jerseys, just that they are. And then that somehow proves women are incapable of sincere admiration, as if because men do one thing, women must do the other, because we're polar opposites, right? And by implication of the second statement, somehow men spending wads of cash on jerseys is a signifier of sincere admiration? no. fuck off. you're an idiot and need to seriously reanalyze your surroundings. rather than trying to simplify everything to a base concept and then trying to find out how each of those abstractions differ from each other, you should start learning to find similarities in people, and look at the nuances of individuals and their relationships.

What Rudy does is not morally or legally objectionable in the slightest, it's exactly what most people did back in the day when trailers wouldn't deliver to any little town in the middle of nowhere and middle-men were necessary, he's a middle man for people who don't have a LGS or the money to buy directly from distributors, notthing else.

You don't even need to buy from him, there's millions of people in ebay who do exactly the same, just don't have a youtube channel to brag about it.

I'm pretty touchy about people accepting to work for minimun wage. It incentivizes corporations to remove middle-class jobs and that money is only going to CEOs' already fat pockets and not returning to the economy.

Okay one, that's impressive.

Two, you don't make enough money to buy anything that's going to earn for you (financial investments, property, businesses), especially not when you own a car (insurance payments) and play Magic (a non-stop money sink). Even owning your own home earns for you because you aren't setting your rent money on fire when you pay it out.

ummm princess? what? are you perhaps aiming that at the wrong person? I mean if I said I was shocke there was not more fan art of a scantily clad cat lady, one would think to assume it implies I already searched for it... in the name of science of course. I got no problem with it.

Also he was called a beefcake, unless buffcake was thrown out in the stories I missed since they did some commander related stories. And I feel gideon is the beefiest of all beefcakes.
