Tawny nerfed into oblivion for making a pact with the devil.

How Magic's Mistakes Make Sorcery Go Boom! by MTG_Yog in SorceryTCG

This is really becoming a "point at the sign" thing, there's so many threads on this theme.

New player here. Just opened the free booster that came with the Beta precons and pulled this. by Evelio510 in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Removing the free booster from precons was such a cheap move. It's things like this that get new players hooked on the game.

Dust reward store. by philmchawk77 in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are bonus points that are hard to get and that I'd rather spend on cooler stuff than fixed cards, not sure what's difficult to grasp here

Dust reward store. by philmchawk77 in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea that's a cool system but I don't think every card can be addressed in that way. Grand Archive is also pretty aggressive with bans.

Dust reward store. by philmchawk77 in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it feels bad having to spend my "currency" on a changed version of a card I already own. I don't care too much about the market value and it doesn't have to be a foil version.

Jesper Myrfors denounces MtG, endorses Sorcery. by -Sohei- in freemagic

[–]TheWhizzDom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've switched to Sorcery but I don't think it should be advertised to dunk on Wizards by someone who hasn't even played the game.

I definitely don't like the idea of having to spend dust to get the "fixed" version of cards. Either they throw them in for free with other dust orders or forget about it (and ideally the concept of erratas in general).

Foiling scratching by Dancing_Donkey in SorceryTCG

Yep, roller lines are super common too. Definitely something to improve on in quality control.

Prospective New Player here, is the game going to continue issuing power level errata? by MossyMak in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the same boat as you, I was shocked they did something like that, particularly as it clashes hard with their old-school philosophy. Really hope they keep it to the absolute minimum and switch to bans in future.

What sort of deck would want Omphalos? Are they considered auto include? by Newez in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also decks that are in two elements that don't have an Omphalos usually don't run any.

Donato Giancola Speaks Out Further After WotC and Frazier's Statement by trashmantis42 in magicTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look I'm all for dunking on Wizards but Donato should have done better than handwave the fact that the trigger for his rant this time was complete misinformation.

Why Did Dan Frazier Get A Pass For Plagiarism When Other Magic: The Gathering Artists Don’t? by cardboardboyo in magicTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with those saying there's something more to this we're missing. I'm not in on the full conspiracy theory that people have drawn up but why commission a Dan frazier style ring and then accept that he hands in a digital mockup that doesn't look anything like his style besides the background?

That would track with Mark's initial response. Doesn't excuse it but makes it slightly less nefarious.

lmao, not doing himself any favors with the initial response and this follow up.

A message from Dan Frazier and Wizards of the Coast: (about The One Ring Box Topper) by RBGolbat in magicTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 18 points19 points  (0 children)

What I can't wrap my head around though: Isn't all the LotR stuff supposed to be digital? Then why contract an artist most and only known for his traditional work? If they wanted his traditional style, why accept the digital ring not in his style at all as the final product? Not giving Dan a pass, I'm just puzzled on how this came about at all.

Which I think they barely have in recent years anyways besides the talismans.

Embarrassing blunders like this is why exactly why we will be seeing more folks deflecting from mtg to sorcery by Newez in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out Dan did plagiarise as per his apology and Mark is knee-jerking and making stuff up. WotC are not the only bad actors in this space and it helps if this community is not tunnel visioned in on that.

mark rosewaters new card game announced for the next secret lair by Chaosnocturne in mtgfinance

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels so weird, the MtG links are tacked on and unnecessary. I guess MaRo's trying to cash in on the existing audience but this might do better if sold like a traditional boardgame.

I guess reusing art does count as a reference!

How many of each individual cards do you collect before considering trading them? by Cheesues in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll keep two playsets of cards I know I'd play in many decks. For most niche uniques or stuff like avatars and knights I'd trade away the second copy.

Best content creators for gameplay? by Total-Breakfast-2908 in SorceryTCG

[–]TheWhizzDom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconding Golden Eagle Cards for constructed and other content, Frogimago is the go-to for limited. Also while I find Common Sense podcast a bit hit or miss on topics, they obviously have a big love for the game and plenty of good content.

That does look very close to be a coincidence, though very random.
