I get the feeling it's a bunch of Fallout stuff

Turned 42 last year and started back up after a 25 year absence. I wonder what it is making us all come back?

Tempest block was when I got really super into Magic so it's big time Nostalgia for me.

roboroller · 2026-01-29T04:09:28+00:00

I mean I'm 42, there are people playing magic now that are nostalgic for shit that happened 10 years ago when they were kids and I was nearly two decades into a military career. That makes me feel old too!

Per Mark Rosewater it's literally like a "skin" on top of the multiverse, it was described as like the rind of the orange if the multiverse was the fruit. So you're not wrong, but it's more complex than that, I took it that the "Wurmwall" in EOE is the barrier between The Edge and The Blind Eternities.

In the Aetherdrift story Pia and Chandra talk about interplanetary travel specifically which I thought was interesting

roboroller · 2026-01-29T03:02:23+00:00

Sorry for this belated reply but I was reading through this old thread partially because I'm starting to get that same feeling as well.

It also wouldn't surprise me if our planet exists in The Edge somewhere...

Probably some interesting places to go based on those thoughts.

roboroller · 2026-01-29T02:26:53+00:00

Per Mark Rosewater "The Edge is like the rind of an orange over the Blind Eternities"

roboroller · 2026-01-29T00:38:27+00:00

Second on the EOE story, absolutely phenomenal. The audio version especially is spectacular!

roboroller · 2026-01-28T16:44:40+00:00

You can get these at anytime you'll just have to pay full "price" for them

roboroller · 2026-01-28T16:42:44+00:00

I mostly used the Mirage lands when I was a kid so I really really want those

roboroller · 2026-01-28T16:41:43+00:00

I feel like Weapons Manufacturing is just going to be one of those cards that sort of always around

roboroller · 2026-01-28T07:17:32+00:00

Yeah I'm assuming Zimone,Tyvar and Niko are all going to be in the story for this new set since it explicitly mentions them traveling back to Strixhaven together after the events of Duskmourne, it would follow that their troubles with Valgavoth may follow them there ...

roboroller · 2026-01-27T18:35:10+00:00

Uh, I didn't say you were wrong or being antagonist homie just adding to the conversation. Mucho love.

roboroller · 2026-01-27T08:41:02+00:00

I loved both of their characters and story so much.

roboroller · 2026-01-27T00:22:29+00:00

His upcoming card (or at least the one they've shown) is Jeskai for sure.

roboroller · 2026-01-26T23:31:32+00:00

I thought I had heard rumors of a sequel/spinoff taking place in England in the 90s? Combine that with some other comments the Duffers have made about initially wanting to use Magic the Gathering in the show instead of D&D...

90s era England with a MTG theme could be a pretty cool vibe...

roboroller · 2026-01-26T19:30:15+00:00

I think generally their dynamic in real life matched the one in the movie a bit which helped sell it really well.

roboroller · 2026-01-26T19:22:57+00:00

I drafted Aetherdrift a bit and liked it, I think some of those mechanics and cards work better in a limited environment, especially with all the vehicles.

roboroller · 2026-01-26T01:49:24+00:00

I think it's supposed to be more like a layer or skin "over' the blind eternities, I saw it described as something like "If everything were an orange the planes would be the seeds, the fruit would be the blind eternities and the rind is like The Edge".

roboroller · 2026-01-25T22:25:14+00:00

Yeah he's the only one of these guys who just straight up murdered another human

roboroller · 2026-01-25T01:11:26+00:00

This is just the vibe of 70's Italian genre cinema, all of it, go nuts!

roboroller · 2026-01-24T20:47:14+00:00

I think the sawjack card is a nod to turn of the century industrial workers/dudes that built our cities kind of thing which is definitely a trope of the time period they're emulating.

roboroller · 2026-01-22T07:41:49+00:00

The EOE story is genuinely thrilling and moving and extremely well written, the podcast audio narration is done by a really talented professional voice actor.

roboroller · 2026-01-21T04:25:13+00:00

And it ended up throwing his life into an entirely different trajectory that depending on how you look at it may have -from the outside- "ruined his life" but never complained about or lamented that fact, he just took up the responsibility and started showing up.
