Post by: Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth on January 06, 2014, 12:21:33 AM
So supposedly we are getting a new card frame in M15. Here is what it looks like:

This is what rares will look like, supposedly. This is Waste Not from the You Make It on Daily MTG

Edit: sorry for this, I didn't realize another thread was already made about this. I was excited and in a rush (because I had to get to bed) when I posted. If someone want to delete the thread, go for it.

I never thought I'd live to see another frame change 😂 it seems pretty sleek, I like that the frame has slimmed so cards can potentially do more and the art will be bigger. The font looks readable which is nice for my eyes. The changes are minor compared to the last frame update but I can see the backlash, so Ill get the popcorn ready :P

I like the new frame! Makes sense, you can read the art cred and such easily. I like.

That black card was the Name This Card subject a few months back!

Can't understand the disdain for it. It looks good.

Is it me or is the border uneven. That's the only thing that bothers me

It's been 20 or so years with the same border. I personally think the border looks badass, anyone else agree?

Wrong. This current border is only about 10 years old.

Why couldn't they use the totally rockin' borders from Future Sight? {Homing Sliver} for reference
I personally hate them. It doesnt feel like magic especially when someone plays old border goyf.

I think I like the current frame better, because the new one makes the bottom of the card feel sort of empty. But I'll get used to it, it's not that bad.

The new boarders look like Vanguard Card Fight cards...at least at the bottom of the card frame.

At least not as bad as future sight design

No!  Don't do the shiny sticker that yugioh does!!!

Other than that, I think it's studly.
Chinese counterfeiters where one the verge of crushing the market an putting wizards or atleast magic out of business in certain countries. Yugioh got exactly one thing right about their cards, the authenticity foil.

Well that messes with my foil proxies...  How the heck am I supposed to get a holo sticker?
I thought the same thing about my cheap proxies that I use to playtest with. The idea I had was to make it clear where the holo is and just use a junk rare to paste it on.
