    Yesterday, Star City hikes the price on blue Dual Lands. Today, new Pro Tour stuff is announced... with a Legacy section. Hmmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. "What an odd coincidence!"

    EQ Next: #1 Next gen MMO

    The only EQ3 we'll ever see is a mobile game with extremely aggressive monetization.

    I don't think it'll be played, joking about making the best of bad promos.

    Heh, 3 of my pre-release promos have been Hollow One. I am now on the "Hoping It's Busto In Older Formats" train. Don't really want to buy any Bazaars, though ;)

    Who plays regular EQ (non progression) and what do you do?

    Tuco still plays on live, I think, posted his 6-box set-up a while back.

    Looks like a pretty interesting bit o' cardboard. Valuetown USA. Of course, you have to sacrifice a billion years of tempo in the process :)

    The Secret World

    I like the disconnect between the MMORPG.com guy's stream of the reboot, where he's bitching nonstop, and the article, where he's praising it.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    There was interest, just not at the price Rhode Island was asking. RI didn't seem to understand whoever bought the shit would have to completely retool it since there was no way they'd get the same programmers et al back to work on it. Nowhere near worth the number RI had to bring in to claim...

    Picked up the Endless Legend Collection and Shadow of Mordor, should provide enough entertainment to last until the next wave of games are out.

    I'm just happy they said we're never seeing Humanoid Slivers again, even if they did confirm we're saddled with "your slivers have..." as effect line going forward.

    The only way we're ever getting a Timespiral style "REFERENCES!" set again is as a Summer Draft/Multiplayer Weirdness Product, so that it's tucked safely away from the new players that make up wotc's expansion set focus group.

    The only Elder Dragons left are the new ones on Tarkir, and those only exist because Nicky thinks he killed Ugin (and he did, before timey wimey bullshit), so no reason to check back in on Tarkir since there should have been no new Dragons spawning. Also, Kotaku garbage has a new identity...

    Full stolen Ixalan rare sheet posted online. This really is the Hour of Revelation. Grixis Pirate Lord Legend and a Naya Dinosaur Lord Legend, so I am now sad that we have to muddle through HOU to get to Ixalan.

    Well, you can't tell people ahead of time you're discontinuing their game, or else they'll stop buying digital cards for RL money.

    Just give me: 8 Activate Combat Button Slots 4 Situational and/or Utility Button Slots and 3-6 "Passive" Slots That I can fill/change around from my acquired AA shit outside of combat/instance. I'm okay with having an endless AA grind for *options*, rather than raw power increase.

    What if it channels the ancient forces of 90s neckbeardery that lie scattered throughout the EDH and Vintage community, and the game becomes more Pantheon than Pantheon?

    Traded for two of the Commander Anthology life-counters last night, they're pretty great for non-tournament-play. Stable, without free-spinning wheels, so if it gets knocked over it doesn't change #. Real handy.

    Magic Story already doesn't reflect the creature-heavy gameplay. The Jacetice League doesn't summon much beyond ASHAYA and Zombie Tokens. Tech pay may be higher now under the new CEO that started last year, since he's prioritizing the digital side of the company. They were able to lure folks...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I mean, it was probably patterned after Songblades in Dungeons and Dragons, not an actual novel idea they thought through and considered the ramifications of. Songblades pretty much replaced instruments in combat there, too.

    Obviously they'll have raid bosses in the MMO drop treasure chests you redeem in MTGO, and the treasure chests will have a chance to drop loot/resources for your MMO character. Make ya buy into both products ;)
