>LE EPIC ANIME POWERS HE'S LE EXPLODED, BAZINGA FUNNY FLAVOR TEXT REFERENCING OUR COOL SUPERHERO PLANESWALKERS XD

Magic ended after Time Spiral, dude.

It's the Zombie Simpsons of card games now.

It's funny because the original card has pretty alright text. It's a shame commander is ruining flavor with dumb snowflakes.

I legit fucking miss the literary quote flavor texts.

>magic ... it's the zombie simpsons of card games
that's not how you spell yugioh.

Yeah... sometimes they really fucking screw up. I'm glad they corrected this in FtV: Lore

are you saying the art is bad too? Because nils and seb are the only ones who make good art for new cards.

rout and oils doesn't even rhyme, what scrub wrote this?

Is this bait or are you a product of the American education system?

You mean after Zendikar. They haven’t been to an original plane since, it’s either a “return to” set or based off of some real world place.

>nils
>everything looks like it has mold on it

goddamn new kids. Magic has been a dead game since Weatherlight (at least).

Weatherlight was honestly the point when the game started its slow screaming death.

better than everything being samey cg garbage

I agree but his art is still ugly.

I would say Innistrad block was the final hurrah. Avaycn restored is a good place to end it on.

My only problem with nuMTG is that the new planes fucking suck.
>dude mesoamerica with dinosaurs lmao

wow I can't wait for all the progressive inclusion that has gripped nu Dominaria

Where have you been, Fallen Empires signaled the end. Ice Age brought it back a little bit but then Homelands let you know that there was no reason to keep going.

shit taste

>magic 2010 version of Goblin Chieftain
“We are goblinkind, heirs to the mountain empires of chieftains past. Rest is death to us, and arson is our call to war.”

>magic 2012 version of Goblin Chieftain

Black suffered the most from the new epn digital artstyle

>a plane fractured in 5 that became sub-planes that reformed
>English/Scottish/Irish mythology plane

abcb rhyming structure is for faggots

I like my plastic eldrazi too user

I know this is a low-effort bait thread and I don't care much for flavor text nowadays, but as a non-anglo kid the literary quotes sparked my interest for the classics.

I don't know, Time Spiral was a lot of nice feels at the time. I agree with putting the line there. (I was already a lapsed player after Urza, returned for Mirrodin, then it's been on and off).

>Actually caring for flavor on a useless non competitive-card
>actually caring about the setting of any competitive game and not just on how efficient a card is in the game
>Actualy caring about non/rules content on a card

Can you be more of an autist?

Pot, meet kettle.

Well, actually you could be even more of an autist

Literary flavor text sucks and only serves to allow wannabe Veeky Forumsfags to jack off. Prove me wrong.

There's good flavor text now as well, user.

>t. millennial

why dont you post one then?

As a millennial, I resent that implication. Not all of us are autistic anti-intellectual fags. Fuck, I have a degree in English, I love the old flavor texts with literary references and wish that shit would come back in a right hurry.

>final iteration
Sure that’s totally an eldrazi and not just an insect horror

Meanwhile enjoy random streaks and specks on your art

Um... that's the opposite of good, sweetie.

Just like a millennial, you think you're somehow special in any way.

Hardly. Just reminding you that everyone in a group is not identical and that stereotyping is a waste of your time.

>Fuck, I have a degree in English

Yugioh is the family guy of card games.

>degree is english
I'ma just call you captain useless.

leave it to a millennial to waste their time accomplishing nothing

then again, you have an English degree (lmao) so you're pretty good at that
