Predictions for the new Dominaria set?
>>
>>54025366
It'll be shit like everything else neo-Magic does.
>>
>>54025366
Underpowered small creatures, burn spells, and counters. Overpowered fatties, Planeswalkers, and cheat into play cards. Just like every set these days.
>>
I just hope the poor Dominarians had the time to catch a breath for once.

>>54025387
The end of mtg, surely.
>>
>>54025366
>Every non-mythic creature below 3 mana will be shit
>Every 3+ mana creature will be OP
>Burn Spells and Counterspells will cost at least 3 mana
>The Planeswalkers will be insanely OP, and there will be no viable answers for them

Just like every set since Origins
>>
>>54025366
What I hope for:
>An Urza Planeswalker
>Counrerspell and Lightning Bolt reprints
>Real aggro and control strategies, no more Midrange
>Decks that aren't just piles of mythics

What we'll actsilly get:
>Another "diversity girl" Planeswalker, a la Saheeli/Samut
>At least 2 members of the Jacetice League
>4-mana Counters and 3-mana Bolts
>Every good creature will cost at least 3 mana
>Every deck will need at least 20 Mythics to compete
>>
>>54025366
There better be at least a hint that Yawgmoth persists in some way in Urborg.

Phyrexians fighting Eternals.

Then, universe rewrite plus massive rules overhaul. Introduction of new card types and maybe a new color.
>>
Isn't this the plane Ajani went to recruit new members?
So I guess new gate watch members.
>>
The world is rebuilding and prepared for an interplanar war. Not against the phyrexians, but against the planeswalkers. Domina remembers far too well the cause of all the trouble in the multiverse and seeks to release "the shard" once again rendering interplanar travel impossible. Thran, Phyrexian, and Urzan artifacts dot the landscape and various factions vie for control of the powers that once ruined worlds.

Slivers.

What else are they going to do? Humans are social creatures, and if they've been cowed into despising religion and national fervor than how the fuck are they going to scratch that itch to be a small part of the greater whole? Social Justice events are the only place left in the West where a white person raised on Worship of the Self (aka, the final stage of individualism) can say they're doing something for a greater cause.

>>54025767

I'm going back through Planeswalkers and Dovin Baan was the last male Planeswalker who was a completely new character, made just for the set. I'd also like to note that he was a "bad guy". Before that you have to go back to original Conspiracy for Dack Fayden, and I believe Theros for Xenagos.

There is a serious lack of new male Planeswalkers who are also new Characters.

Urza and Yawgmoth are dead and gone. There will be no Urza card because Urza is part of Karn. There will be no Yawgmoth hints because the entirety of Magic's early story was about killing the bastard - and his work still lives on after his death, in the multiple worlds still dominated by Phyrexians.
>>54031879
Don't you see? Narset is Asian, and Asian doesn't count for diversity, only Africans count for diversity for someone like that. Doesn't matter that she's an autistic Tibetan, she's not brown and not the right SHADE of brown to be Diverse.
I mean holy fuck that woman is racist as all fuck.
>>
>>54031577
Richard IS back for Dominaria.
Also, Maro has less control over things than people seem to think - he's not responsible for everything being overcosted and shit, he's not responsible for storyline or characters, and he's not responsible for logos and company direction.
He IS responsible for general design of a set. Things like megamorph and devoid existing, Theros having shit-all for non-aura enchantments, and things like that are all squarely on his head.

Wait, what's all the outrage about?

I don't see a single dildo anywhere in that image. I don't see any perversion or grossness there. It's just a company based in Seattle, one of the most liberal cities in the US, doing a little self-advertisement and virtue-signalling while also allowing its employees to have a good time on a day out. They're even taking their kids along.

I see nothing worth being horrified about. It mostly just looks like a wholesome day out for WotC's employees that enables the acquisition of a few LGBT brownie points. It's nothing more.

You answered your own question. Also, I think it's hilarious that it's entirely white people.

Corporations have been pandering in order to get good PR for generations though. This is absolutely nothing new.
>>
>>54032580
Nothing hilarious about it. Minorities aren't into nerd shit.
>>
>>54032552
Imbalanced cards are done add long add they aren't just for one some of deck. It's all midrange now. Red does constantly get fucked over. They've reduced it to just the "the burn color" or the color that does other color things with a downside ad's refuse to give it good cards in those niches that aren't overcosted. Planeswalkers have become too prominent and focus on the Gatewatch had reduced the planes we see to small, simple areas that don't resemble the well-built worlds we used to get like Dominaria, Mercadia, or Kamigawa.
>>

Except Asians, but they don't count.

What's so strange about that? These events are never about attracting gays and lesbians to your product, it's about attracting white people who care about gays and lesbians to your product.

Yup. And that's what makes people's stomachs turn I think, even if they don't know it.

I don't give two shits if I'm sitting across the table from a gay dude. But what -really- grinds my gears is sitting across the table from the kind of white dude this advertisement is meant to attract.

>>
>>54032683
>But what -really- grinds my gears is sitting across the table from the kind of white dude this advertisement is meant to attract.

It's no different than advertising a pick-up truck to "the working man" when you know 80% of the people who buy it are overcompensating Suburban men with delusions of masculinity. It's no different than advertising something as All-American or Green or Locally Grown.

Sure, same advertising strategy I guess. Difference is that neither the macho blue collar guy or the milquetoast suburban dad wannabe are all that repugnant to anyone.

I hate these kinds of advertisements for exactly the same reasons, though not as much. The kind of people they are actually trying to attract with these can eat shit and die.

She's got Fat Face, and people with Fat Face are either extremely depressing or extremely punchable.

You guys know about Fat Face, right? Every person who gets fat enough eventually develops the exact same appearance because all their otherwise unique facial features are covered beneath a uniform layer of chub. It's the same reason you only get, like, 5 unique baby faces.
>>
>>54032980

Great things. I'm hoping Ixalan is the start of a new era of design where things don't suck. But realistically, not even Richard Garfield will be able to save this from being bad.

>mfw it's only one large set when it could easily encompass its own three set block

>>54034033
Are you talking Dominaria or ixalan? Pretty sure Ixalan is 3 sets: Ixalan, Rivals of Ixalan, and Explorers of Ixalan.

>Predictions for the new Dominaria set?

Endless complaints from /tg/, of which 10% are justified and 95% will be about SJWs and diversity. There will be proclamations of Magic's death, stalwart insistence that no more cards will be purchased, and then the usual caving in and buying because that's how it always works.

As for the set itself, I wouldn't mind seeing some Slivers, especially since they've admitted that reception to the new style of Slivers wasn't popular and Dominaria would be a great place to return to the old variety.

>>
>>54039706
Yeah, Jamuraa. Most of it's even still around, though a large chunk (Zhalfir) was permanently phased out.
Of course, Dominaria (the set) could change that, with Teferi finally managing to get his homeland back- or perhaps just the people.
>>
>>54039803
I'd enjoy if dominaria block was teferi getting his fucking island back.

>>54031831
I just know some professional victims are going to get pissy about this saying that equating them to dragons and elves is oppressive.
>>
>>54032234
They're specifically not making many new male walkers because early on they made a fuckton of dudes and the ratio is still highly skewed towards male walkers.
>>
>>54025366
What I want to see is a set based on Dominaria rebuilding. Where the main drive of the cards is getting better over time, the residents dragging themselves back up from the multiple apocalypses they went through.
The main plot can be either 'fuck the guys who want the world to stay shit' or 'Teferi trying to bring Zhalfir back.' No world ending, just the place becoming not a hellhole.
I want to see references to a lot of old shit. Not necessary reprints or goofy callback cards like Time Spiral (as much as I loved those cards and that block), but a bunch of cards referencing things. A card with flavor text about Madara, or something noting how Otaria's doing, or the fate of Keld or Llanowar or whatnot, even if it takes place in a single area.
I...actually think double faced cards would work wonders for the set. Instead of things transforming into monsters, the front side is the crappy destroyed/destitute version, and the backside is what the place/creature looks like after everything's been fixed up. Like, say, a cycle of shitty ETB Tapped monocolor lands that turn into Acadamy/Cradle/etc when used enough
I want kavu, and at the very least a fivecolor sliver legend.
I want them to reprint Tomb of Yawgmoth with new flavor text stating just how dead he is.
If they go with DFCs, I want to see Teferi get his spark back
And, most importantly of all, I want them to show the entire Globe of Dominaria at some point.
>>
>>54040583

If we are going by characters, it's 13 women to 20 men, not counting Samut, Aishok, and Karn, and the new Walker in Ixalan. That means that the next 7or so new Planeswalkers who are new characters have to be women before they catch up.

Assuming one new Walker character per set, with no new Walkers in the Core sets, that means we won't get a new male Planeswalker character until 2020. Which means 2 and a half years of Jace and Gideon as our main male Planeswalkers.

I am not okay with that.
>>
>>54040754

Booster Box says Dominaria is about Liliana going back there after Amonkhet.
>>
>>54040991
Bah, figures. Of course it's the old hag going home.
>>
>>54041029

I mean I bet a Booster box, not that I know for sure. But it makes sense, given that it looks like the Gatewatch gets scattered to the winds, and she's from there. So yeah.
>>
>>54040974
Based on Dovin Baan, there will still be new male walkers mixed in.
>>
>>54025366
Might it be a prequel?
>>
>>54041132
No, no. I get it. It's just there's stuff for her to do there (resolve the issues with her zombie/lich brother) and they're probably not going BACK to Dominaria again for a long while after so it makes sense for it to be 'Liliana takes care of her personal business the set' instead of something actually interesting.
Because no, it can't be about Teferi getting his spark back, giving them an experienced walker for the roster with a storied history, who isn't pandering yet still gets them those brownie points they've been hungering for. It'll be about Miss Not-My-Fault and her headmate.

As a Seattle Area native I hate driving there because of that reason. Traffic is horrid once you get into the city. However the surrounding towns, Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, etc. are stuffed to gills with tabletop bars and game stores of all kinds.

This area is very much a tabletop mecca and it is great to live in. So many legends live up here

My body is ready for MILF status Jaya.

In all seriousness, I'm willing to bet that somehow a portion / segment of the plane is only now being brought back into existence and that portion still thinks that it is at war with Phyrexia...and then it turns out that they are right as the Phyrexians actually show up - not the whole shebang, but a few sleeper agents which will lead into future blocks, etc...

Idealy they would do something like two females to every male until they caught up. Would take longer but the act of catching up would be less noticeable.

Already confirmed it is set after recovery from the disasters.
>>
>>54032233
Except music, movies, comics and vidja are already swinging back because they've noticed in their ever decreasing paychecks that SJWs have no money.
Shamefully WotC is two years in the past.
>>
>>54032467
MaRo does have one thing of power over everyone else at WotC. He holds the funnel of information between the company and it's consumer base and of course he chose Tumblr of all places to anchor his presence because he's totally not a crafty little merchant with a bridge to sell.

>>54032552
A card can be shit in standard and still awesome in eternal, ie. Deathrite Shaman.
The problem isn't that every card should be legacy playable, the problem is that nowadays they're printing 50+ cards each set that are shit even in limited.

Not him, but sorry not everyone likes false people who vociferate false worries about the enviroment as they drink from a styrofoam cup.

Maybe consider growing a personality of your own and drop the labels, that shit shouldv'e stayed in high school.

I'd actually like it more if Dominaria was 100% in Jamuraa with 100% Jamuraan not-africans. Instead of Otaria/Sarpadia/Shiv/New Continent that is now 50% black because THE CITY OF SEATTLE

>Let's make it into something that could be described by one word!

It's gonna suck, the mechanics will probably be some boring +1/+1 counters shit.
>>
>>54034598
That's surprisingly balanced, more so than the other one. Why? Because doubling season doesn't cause him to ult the turn he comes out.
>>
>>54046569
New appearance was drastically more unpopular than new mechanics, but both were less liked. They're less likely to budge on the mechanics - it's simply how they do tribal shit nowadays (compare the alpha lords to modern ones, for example)

Shame.

...when he set his stuff up on tumblr, it was before it started to get really big (and before it became a haven for SJWs). It's there because he was looking for a place to put his dumb comic panels because he thinks he's a master of comedy.
Then people started asking him questions.

>>54048092
It's been that way since Kamigawa. Every lord pumps your guys only, and slivers are a tribe of lords - they only continued to pump your opponent's creatures in Time Spiral block due to the nostalgia theme

Oh yeah. I see.

Sjw pandering and plenty of things balanced for EDH as well as making removal and counterspells more expensive and shittier.

>>54025767
Urza's dead. Like, completely. Why would we get an Urza planeswalker? We'd be more likely to get a new Teferi.

>>54025366
I dislike it, unless the whole thing is going to be a romping adventure across all of Dominaria where we visit multiple disparate lands like Jamuraa, Shiv, Caliman, and so on.

Otherwise I would never have had a "Dominaria" set.
>>
is it just me or is this overpriced?
>>
>>54046648
Deathrite shaman was actually pretty great in standard, but I see your point.
>>
>>54050010
Way overpriced, but it is also out of color so it stands to reason that it would cost more than if it was black.
>6 mana to eternalize one creature.
If you have all the mana ramp and mana fixing in your colors you might be able to eternalize two whole creatures!
>>
>>54050010
Member when Unburial Rites could revive any creature and not nerf them to shitty 4/4s with cmc0? And it costed 1 less mana? And it was much less color intensive? AND it had flashback?!? AND IT WAS AN UNCOMMON AND NOT A RARE?!?!?!?!?

Geez, we've sure come a long way since then, eh?
>>
>>54050389
Remember when Unburial Rites was black (the color of reanimation) with a white flashback (the secondary color of reanimation), and not monoblue (which only gets noncreatures back, and rarely permanents)?
>>
>>54025538
>Every non-mythic creature below 3 mana will be shit
What is Aetherborn Adept?

What is Dovin or Sahmut.

>Endless complaints from /tg/, of which 10% are justified and 95% will be about SJWs and diversity. There will be proclamations of Magic's death, stalwart insistence that no more cards will be purchased, and then the usual caving in and buying because that's how it always works.

No anon, OP said predictions for Domimaria, not what was posted about Amonhket and Kaladesh.
>>
>>54040754
First set establishes current status quoted tensions.
Second set introduces bad guys trying to fuck shit up Mad Max style.
Third set is everyone kicking their shit in and continuing to rebuild, while Liliana watches and has nothing to do with the story.
>>
>>54052900
They stopped doing three set blocks two years ago.
And starting with Dominaria they're doing no blocks at all, just large sets (some of which will take place on the same plane/continue the storyline of the previous large set)
>>
>>54052201
Dovin? He was so busted that he ended up getting baanned.

>Ajani asks advice from Teferi on how to fight Bolas

>Marit Lage finally appears
>Weatherlight crew cameos
>Otaria cast cameos

Throwbacks that I'd like Dominaria to touch upon, but would probably not happen:
>The Carthalion lineage
>Geyadrone and Dakkon
>The Thran
>>
As far as the cards in the set, I'm predicting new Teferi adn a new Liliana Planeswalker card, and we will obviously be getting a new Ajani card.

Returning mechanics will include Time Counters, Flashback, and Kicker. Returning tribes will include Slivers, Elves, and Atogs.

For reprints, we obviously won't be getting reserved list cards, or cards that WoTC considers "too powerful" for Standard (see: Counterspell and Lightning Bolt). Cards I do predict to be reprinted are Psychatog (along with the rest of his cycle), Wirewood Symbiote, and Cabal Therapy.

i hope so

Hopefully Lord of Atlantis as well.

Sliver Legion reprint PLEASE. That card is too damn expensive!

The non future-shifted, non-masters set "reprint", standard printing of Tarmogoyf.

At rare.

What's wrong MaRo? Scared that Star City games will pull the plug on the funnel of cash they're pumping into your rectum to keep it down?

>>54056719
I'm just telling you the harsh truth. Goyf will never be in standard again. just buy a box of modern masters 2017 or a single Goyf from your lgs
>>
>>54056864
Not with that attitude, anon. This is crazy backpedaling panic WotC. They could do literally anything at literally any time.

I'm also not paying that much for a piece of cardboard. My hard limit is like 45 bucks.
>>
>>54048588
>plenty of things balanced for EDH
That aren't playable on EDH.

Stop blaming the special kids for the merchant's tricks. 99% of cards are designed to be unplayable in every format so that the Gideons and Jaces are unbeatable.
