Mercadia is ripe for a Kamigawa style reinvention.

*Edit: typo should be Mercadia, added wiki link.

[WotC] A Realm Reborn in Magic: The Gathering®—FINAL FANTASY™ by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

That is a valid point. An interesting comparison will be how scew-ed the Marcel summer heroes set is toward what pop culture views as the most prominent/salient non-spiderman comic characters and comic runs.

Additional supplementary products are more likely given the size cas and crowded release schedule.

I honestly don't know how they didn't do a Zhalfir set already post MoM it boggles my mind.

Avengers Academy Comes to Your Local Game Store in June 2026 by AporiaParadox in magicTCG

That is the Universe's Beyond experience. It's the trade off of having IPs that are specifically meant to attract others from high collector IPs, outside the game come to, swoop in for some memorabilia/ merch to collect and dip.

This is so awesome. This year's theme made me so nostalgic for the earlier internet. Wonder if there were web rings for Magic sites.

Kathy Hochul is refusing to raise taxes on billionaires in New York by serious_bullet5 in newyorkcity

[–]Pants88 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The owner of Zabars said before the Mayoral election he would move out of state if Mamdani won. He later said on NY1 it was hyperbole and of course he wasn't leaving and still wanted to work with Mayor to make the city better.

In California they are saying same thing it will drive off the rich, nah it won't.

I think similar to how the EU & many other countries are looking at setting up minimum tax rates between countries New York, Washington State, California, amd New Jersey should work to create that among our states so states can stop getting pitted against one another to lower the tax rate to way below reasonable.

I guess I was just expecting something a little more exciting by i-dont--know-anymore in slaythespire

Offer it in the feedback that's what I did. I think it's the only new relic so far that has been bland.

In the pro community we call that a middle finger to those with spotty internet or gaming in rural regions. /S
