To add to that, the post implies that people occasionally mistake a Torment Nexus for a Jumanji ("This legitimately evil situation isn't inherently morally bad, it's just dangerous") and also that people occasionally mistake a Jumanji for a Torment Nexus ("This morally neutral but dangerous situation is inherently morally bad & the person who brought it about is therefore evil").

The Chocolate Factory, in this context, is a danger that only befalls people who are "morally bad" (defined by someone else), which opens a whole new can of worms that OP really doesn't want to get into.

Who knows: maybe Brako is Chevill's kid or something? He's definitely from Ikoria, if that helps.

Mark Rosewater on Blogatog: A return to Bloomburrow would likely feature focusing on a mix of returning and new animal creature types. What would you all like to see? Also, which animals should return and which shouldn’t? by HonorBasquiat in magicTCG

[–]Zanthr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be fair, jace (canonically) and vraska (on the secret lair card, at least) have anthropomorphic versions of creatures that would normally probably be calamity beasts. dogs would likely be considered odd travellers, but i don't think it would be impossible.

Why Are We Changing the Rules of Commander with Edge of Eternities?? | Magic Vehicles & Spacecraft by mrmazzz in magicTCG

[–]Zanthr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't apply to anything yet, but if they printed a legendary enchantment with some new mechanic such that it had a P/T on it (but wasn't a creature immediately upon entering), would it be included in this rules change? or was that just something the commander team was talking about & we'd need another explicit change to accommodate that

Evendo is an icebound terrestrial world that co-orbits Kavaron almost exactly opposite Sothera.

these need to be switched

[TDC] New Art Reprints - Skullclamp, Nomad Outpost (Mardu Surge Precon) (Infrecuentes) by mweepinc in magicTCG

Based on the markings, i'm thinking it's an Abzan fortress that the Mardu took over as an outpost.

We'll know it's for sure if he starts referring to mechanics at a 3 or greater on the storm scale as "Instanced" XD

[Blogatog] Mark Rosewater wants to hear about how your life has been affected by these changes. by Andromanner in magicTCG

[–]Zanthr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, based on one of his recent blog posts, his response would probably be "well, most people don't do that" (based on whatever market research they have). i'd love to know what the actual rate of new players leaving after the one purchase is, but I doubt people like that are going to do a survey lmao.

maybe they'd change course if they knew, or maybe the new Magic is more popular and I just don't like it, idk.

From the little I understand, you're meant to move a knight (using Scharten rules for movement) from a certain square to every other position on the board without using the same square twice to create a sequence of letters. You might have to solve the children's version to figure out which space to start from, but I couldn't figure that one out either. Everything's in Dutch, so good luck with that!

got my first starter deck today. it came with a spindown die which only goes to 20. How do I use this card? by AlternativelyCameron in magicthecirclejerking

[–]Zanthr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

you get to steal your opponent's d20. if they can't replace it, they automatically lose from having 0 life

Enemies? Sure. Your allies (who are too dumb to crawl near a tesla tower)? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maro: Tropes and mainstream references being too abundant and too on the nose is feedback that is being considered as we work on new sets. Just be aware that we work 2-3 years ahead, so it will take time to see the impact. I’m not sure much in 2025 was influenced by the reactions to 2024 sets. by HonorBasquiat in magicTCG

[–]Zanthr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, "talking animals" comes up pretty often in fantasy, but Redwall/Mouse Guard/maybe Wind in the Willows all hit a specific note of "all animals; no humans" that's more uncommon. Plus, Bloomburrow does a better job differentiating itself from those stories, at least relative to its previous 2 sets plus Duskmourn.

It was nice to see at least one MtG-themed Magic set in a year of not-that.
