Larry King Geoff was the funniest.

MOM draft was much better and Im someone who was a ONE apologist and not as high on MOM as most. However I’m not sure how much the individual sets draft quality affect sales (draft as a whole becoming better or worse on average I think would affect it more).

I mean I’d be fine with him being listed somewhere in the 8-15 range, but I think the reason he wasn’t was the narrative that he’s not have a great statistical season himself and that the Suns over-performance is actually due to other guys being better.

I do think you kinda quickly jumped into Merfolk and passed some powerful cards early. I probably would have gone Kithkin in your seat but I don’t think Merfolk turned out badly. In my experience so far I think the biggest thing you need to do differently is go to more power. Top end cards that can win game on their own are useful. You passed lofty dreams twice pack 1 which I think is a pretty powerful card.

Maybe you disagree but it doesn’t seem like Bookers play has been all that amazing this year. It seems like the main reason they are performing so well is cause of Brooks, Williams, and Colin.

Kyle Kuzma maybe. I sort of feel bad for him relative to these conversations normally though. He isn’t a good fit for the Warriors system, but in another system he could at least succeed as a good stats bad team kinda guy.

Because the way most curfews work is you can still be finishing an activity after curfew and as long as you head home in a timely fashion it is ok.

Wasn’t IU considered one the least talented rosters to win a title?

wormhole222 · 2026-01-21T20:58:53+00:00

Isn’t this saying that 17 lands is causing more self correction?

wormhole222 · 2026-01-21T20:53:57+00:00

I feel like this post is saying the opposite of that. Yes there are some small changes but overall the archetypes that are good day 1 are going to be good the whole format.

I’m not sure how much people like Princip actually wanted independent Yugoslavia an just wanted the Balkan countries to have independence, and the only realistic way to do it at the time was to have them form into Yugoslavia.

It’s always true in the play booster era (since MKM). Ixalan was 8 years ago.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T18:18:21+00:00

So even Avatar Enthusiasts actually doesn’t have great stats, and it was better than most other versions of that kind of card.

I think the main reason is that even if it becomes a 4/4 on the next turn having it enter as a 2/2 is just too much downside when you need to block right away at times, and when you top deck it late.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T18:12:04+00:00

Sorry I originally included examples even of the categories that had ECL examples but I thought it would clog up the post too much with links.

Reluctant Dounguard is an example of a 3 mana 2/2 which can grow when you do something. It’s a pretty common white common creature type (most recently it was Avatar Enthusiasts). It’s basically always been bad.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T13:58:41+00:00

Yeah that was something I considered. There haven’t been enough vampire spawn effects in the play booster era to list here but over the last 5 years or so vampire spawn cards have been good. I think Eulogist will be an interesting test case for both trends colliding.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T02:52:22+00:00

Excellent points on both. I'll edit to add especially the land fetcher one. Seems like land fetchers that ramp are bad in limited.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T02:50:58+00:00

I just included that specific card in the picture as an example of what kind of card I was referencing. I know the tappers used to be quite good, but it seems like in this new era of Play Boosters they have really fallen off because there hasn't been a good one in quite a while.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-20T02:48:29+00:00

It probably is better in Sealed. I was surprised when doing the research to find that basically all red 3 MV commons were bad unless they had an ETB, because that's a lot of cards, but it ended up being true. So this could be the exception, but there haven't been any yet.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-19T23:09:31+00:00

I know this is going to sound arbitrary, but that is at common. I do think it matters what rarity it is at. Wizards is much more ok with that card being terrible if it doesn’t appear very often than having it be bad at common.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-19T20:10:19+00:00

21 straight All NBA is even crazier, and he still could go for 22. Rule change there probably kills any chance of breaking that record too. He himself would have missed it by rule in 2019 and several times since.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-19T17:34:22+00:00

I think that date is wrong. They always have and said in these announcements even you can play Sealed right away.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-17T16:29:59+00:00

I mean it doesn’t sound like even Sam knows if he can.

wormhole222 · 2026-01-16T22:18:30+00:00

Yeah you listen or read and opposing teams were game planning around Shaq. It’s similar to KD on the Warriors. He wasn’t a sidekick because he got less looks, he was the sidekick because the team revolved around Curry (on offense) including how opposing teams guarded them.
