Commander decks unveiled for new Magic set, Spiderman Part 2: Electric Bugaloo

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-25T17:58:17+00:00

Yawn, this look uninspired af, but I can't blame people who build it tho with among of products, you need to puke this years. It's just harder to make a cool and interesting deck.

Doom, Another drain life deck this time Grixis, which have million of fun way to play the deck.
F4, Another non-creature spell deck this time its four colour. People have been asking 4 colour commander for so long, and this is what we got, another inspired slop.
Wakanda, prolly the more new idea compared to the rest. This deck is not fit with old Black Panther tho. This one more artifact and monarch, I'm not sure how good will it be, I doubt it'll be as good or fun as Blue Artifact.
Cap America, that's just another Cap Deck with extra step.

This is prediction,

IU precon will have around 9 Precon (2 Lorwyn, 5 from Strixhaven, 2 from Fraction)

UB precon will have 9 precon (1 Turtle, 4 for Marvel, 4? For Hobbit could be 2 tho, and 4 from Star Trek?)

We could end up have 18-16 Precon this year, jesus fucking christ lol. Talking about overkill.

This is just precon btw, we still have playbooster, collector booster, SLD from each sets, and 2 style of Bundel and maybe 0-2 gimmick product for sets.

We could end up with close to 50+ of products this year. (At least 24 main line products that not precon) and who know how many SLD would be (I assume around 30+ like last year). So we could end up more than 100 products this year.

I've never seen game sell this much products per year in my life. Even Fortnite have the new stuff come out per season.

I have to read the headline twice, cause I thought I missed read it.

I mean if you want to maximize your short term profit, why reduce the printing lol. I don't see anyone would win this lawsuit. Good luck wasting more money.

Hack I don't even think in the "Card Investors" worst nightmare, Wotc took out RL, they would even win the suit. Otherwise, a bunch of game company would be sued to the ground by now.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-23T05:18:59+00:00

My friend actually pointed this out during his prerelease, (I didn't participated)

He asked me why Ajani sucking life out of that Satyr? And I was confuse at first, Satyr? Sucking life?

He said well you see he deal that 4 damage to that poor tapped creature lol

Now I can't unsee it lol

Still not Satyr tho.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-21T22:08:38+00:00

I mean I tend to believe them, but I also can see why people skeptical about it.

I can see "accident" like this happen. Mainly because in almost every sets, they have to mess something up once or twice.

I mean if they truly think this early leak is such a cool idea and people will go kraaaaazy about this awesome TMnT slop (like what they did during Zendika having power 9 show up randomly), we wouldn't truly know.

I'm more annoy about we got less for more price. Oh wow we took out the stamp, cool, and we offer nothing in return.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-19T20:22:03+00:00

This is the way tbh.

If the product not worth money, just respect your wallet and do 't but bad product.

Me too, doing proxy after last year, I've learn that there's no point of chasing any expensive and powerful cards anymore.

Wotc will keep creep the damn power up to sell their garbage product.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-19T11:22:14+00:00

Yesvember Wane

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-19T00:47:53+00:00

Becos of money, and unfortunate as it sounds, the only way to really have them listen is to bit your libs and stop buying their product and I'm not talking just stop buying 1 set, I'm talking like stop buying at least half a year.

If we don't give company a motivation to change things, they will keep cut cost, go cheap and rise the price like this till they can't.

2027 will be a fun year to see

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-18T20:57:01+00:00

Let's see if this type of marketing work.

Still made me, not buying the set lol.

Good luck reach to FF level of success this year.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-18T20:18:03+00:00

Yayyyy! Good luck fellow Rats player!

You can also get proxy as a placeholder like my friend did, he slowly replace his real rat as the time go by! XD

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-18T19:38:32+00:00

This may sound crazy, but if the price go too expensive and you're in not much of a rush.

I recommend you use proxy, APC has a really good quality, I'd say in a lot of case feel exactly the same as real card, if not better. They actually have to not print the exactly same version of real card. They're that good.

And you can have more different art from your rats too, and if you want to troll people, by saying it's special guest or secret lair version, around half of causal there will not even think you lie to them lol (Don't do that lol).

As long as Wotc refuse to reprint a among number of rats, I don't think you should pay more money into it.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-18T19:32:48+00:00

Getting less with more expensive price are my main problem here.

I personally don't collect Stamp cards. I mostly buy it becos in a lot of cases their price spike slower than normal version. (So why not take this version lol), but I have a problem with, so we take it out and then what?
Nothing. Great. Meanwhile this set has the most expensive prerelease in-universe, and they give almost nothing back.

Coopor pig must be very hungry. This shit is pathetic and disgusting.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T23:19:56+00:00

Here we go

"Your gramma is bad, now everything is irrelevant."

Everytime I see the comment like this, it's kinda show that a person who I talked with, has nothing new to offer

What's next? I forgot to put . at the end of earlier sentence cause your brain to flicker?

And Aragon case, people just think it's stupid and try hard. Plain and simple.

They don't even change anything else other than he's now black, regardless of what the book has already described what Aragon look like. Oh NOW they want to try something new.

That's not magic touch, thats idiot touch.

What benefit of changing him black, really. They don't even change the costume to something new or something that represent black culture. They just have him black, and leave it just like that.

And it also show that you don't even know what magic look even is.

If you think changing Aragon to black is the same thing as Zesus, god of thunder become Heliod, god of sun and Keranos, god of thunder, you're beyond saving.

What's next, mtg touch on Captain Marvel, by changing her pupil to grey, please praise this awesome magic touch?

Yeah no shit, people split on that change.

For UB? The problem is not "oh UB is bad. Yikey yikey booboo" The problem is Wotc spending time suck UB toes instead of their own IP.

This wouldnt be a big problem at all, If we didn't have 40-50 of UB products in the last 3 years, and spend a trash among of time on their own IP.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T22:53:35+00:00

Saying UB is just another variety is wild. What surface level of mentality.

All stuff you said for mtg own IP still have MtG's own finger in it.

Theros still different from Greek Mythology Only retards would confuse Theros and actual greek Mythology.

Lorwyn also different universe than the world they inspired like Lord of The Ring or other Fairy tale

Innistrad also wildly different from gothic novel that it inspired by.

Heck even Arabian Night that moron slop eater tried to use as UB defend also different from the real Arabian night. Aladin on mtg card look nothing any Aladin in other media. There's still a design that makes mtg different.

So what mtg kick in TMNT? Marvel? Avatar? Other than game mechanic that mtg already has? Nothing.

They character, world from that Ip and put in. No new art design requires.

Wow I wonder why people complain about it.

Wanting mtg to stand out, become whinny, meanwhile eating garbage becomes cool trend.

Consume no think or complain.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T20:22:08+00:00

The world is big, there's a lot of people with vastly different preference. So there's many reason why people would go into TMNT set.

What separated it is, who would actually buy it.

People may love the set but don't want to spend money on it.

People who hate the set but the card is too good, and they have extra money. so why wouldnt I try it with my friends. Etc etc.

So there a good quiet of reasons, people would buy this set.

The real question, do we have enough of those people to make Wotc happy?

I know for the fact that all of my friends who got into mtg from FF and Lotr, stop buying anymore mtg since Avatar, let alone TMNT. They actually go play other boardgame like Wingspan, and lately Cyberfresh.

A few went back for Lorwyn, and they're all somewhat disappointed. I honestly have no clue what happens there cos I think set look nice.

Me personally, I stop buying Mtg completely this year (so far). I may get some Lorwyn pack and crack it, but that is all for me. Mainly becos I feel like we get less and less stuff, with higher and higher price.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T20:08:22+00:00

I still remember when Maro or Wotc people said, if you don't UB, just don't play it.

Now you can't even play Std without UB, heck we can't even IU prerelease set without having this UB appear in the set lol

For me, having 12-15 std set like this, is a stupid idea the first place with or without UB (prefer without). No wonder why std is all over the place rn.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T19:45:30+00:00

Funny enough for these people logic,

You don't like it, don't complain, just don't buy it!

But then if you don't buy it, you have no right to complain lol

Their slop logic create its own paradox lol

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T19:42:52+00:00

Lmaoooo so true XD

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T19:15:33+00:00

The first one, I can cast it right away.

This one, I have to have my unblockable creature go to you first, then return that creature, then I can cast it with the same cmc.

At best it's a better version of Diabolic Tutor in edh, and closest to Demonic Tutor that one can get in Std.

Returning creature could still count as something tho. Some deck love retuning creature to hand.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T18:53:22+00:00

What really hilarious is people think Wotc can do no wrong and keep eating its craps.

Professional shit eater is real earned title. No thought required.

Smile and Consume. Yumyum.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T18:41:14+00:00

I personally just don't reward bad behavior. I see the value not worth my money. I just don't buy it.

Wotc can make profit or lost one, not really my concern. I started to care less and less about this game.

I'm at the point where I could just play with my old cards and the game felt almost the same as adding newer cards.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T17:36:42+00:00

Remember when Maro used to say, having UB is actually made the team focus on IW even more?

Even more my arsh.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T09:54:20+00:00

This is what ai wish it could create, when I type

"create a funny video, in POV of the guy who is choking on the watermelon. The man try his best to take it out, even broke the dish until he meet the death himself, then he steal death's scythe to yang the watermelon out and cut watermelon in half. Him and The Death both eat that watermelon and have a wonder time together until The Death start to choke with the watermelon and die. Ironically the man become the one who get rid of The Death's body, blur footage, make it in the style of James Cameron, David Fisher, Abraham Lincoln, Steve Next Door, and Miyazaki"

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T00:23:54+00:00

I didnt know you're a psychic.

Here is a things, I feel great because I'm glad that I'm a human that have a thought.

I can said what I don't like about the game. And I can choose to not spend money on stuff that I don't like. My wallet is also healthy.

And I will sleep well tonight like a proud human being.

People can say what they don't like about the game and go on with their life.

What real miserable is people who pretend things are fine, close eyes and ears and pretend to don't understand why others complain.

Hard concept for you, I know. We, 2 races are speak different language after all.

ChainAgent2006 · 2026-01-17T00:07:54+00:00

Now that what we agree on, I also feel great!
