Title: Where are we headed next
Post by: Imdowd80 on September 27, 2012, 02:42:02 PM
Where do you guys think we are headed next?  For some reason I'm thinking Alra. We just got all these nice dualies so let's go to a place that has three colors, so we can make splashing easier.
Thoughts?

I don't think wizards wants 2 multicolored blocks next to each other like that so maybe a new plane?

New place, old place, new place, old place.

New place - Zendikar
Old place - Mirrodin
New place - Innistrad
Old place - Ravnica
New place - ???

But I still don't think alara will come in after that for a few more years

Agreed!  I'd like to see what's become of good ol' Dominaria since TimeSpiral block.

I like the new card frame. People hated the 8th Ed frames too, but think they turne out pretty good.

Still bugging MaRo to make Contraptions.

I would like a place where we would get really advanced steam punk engineerings. Like, retro-futuristic style technologies, with little to no magic, and a planeswalker which got his spark by intense studies and hard-work on how the planes work(yes, they would be advanced enough to know planes existed even without ever having planeswalkers there). Although the planeswalker part is very unlikely, I really think we might see some place like that soon. We could even have some contraptions there ;)

I feel like we have some steampunk elements already in Innistrad and now Ravnica (you've pretty much described Izzet to a T.)

I say we should go back to Jamuraa. Bring back Flanking and Phasing. With all the new ETB effects, phasing would be crazy.

That's the problem with phasing, though: 702.24d

It neither triggers ETB nor LTB.

It might be worse than banding...

I still have faith that banding can be made to work. There has got to be an ability that works well with banding.

Title: Re: Where are we headed next

An underwater plane. Nothing more, nothing less. It would be really cool though. That or somekind of void world. Like zendikar's floating island and living terrain style but a hell of a lot weirder!
Title: Re: Where are we headed next
Post by: Rasser on September 27, 2012, 08:17:11 PM
I could see a plane with mythological creatures like Minotaurs, centaurs, orcs, griffins, maybe some thunderbirds. Then head back to Kamigawa with Tamiyo have a big part.

Post by: Langku on September 27, 2012, 09:35:44 PM
I wasn't into magic during Ice Age so this might be redundant but:

A Paleolithic plane, no large cities, sparse population, only rudimentary languages and crude technologies (carved stone and wood myr/artifacts). Storywise, it could be used to explore the origins of the main tribes of the multiverse. Merfolk that are more than half prehistoric fish, elves with wooden skin like a dryad, tribal humans, and zombie sabertooths. And oh, the dragons! Much bigger and completely without direction. Just reckless fountains of destruction. The spells would match them. Unrestrained and unpredictable...

I must say, I really hated the Future Sight layout and plenty of the cards were pure garbage ({Steamflogger Boss}), but it also produced some of the most powerful Legacy cards in living memory. It'd be interesting to see what they do if we revisit it...

Don't insult my collection of Steamflogger bosses!!! They are going to be completely broken when cpntraptions come out!!!

Yeah don't get me wrong, I am not saying this is 100% going to happen. For all I know the guy could be lying out of his a$$. It is just what he told me so I figured I would share it with all u wonderful people.
