Whats the logic to putting 4-4-2... What artard is getting paid money to decide thats a better idea than 5-5? Like seriously what jackarse just decides to give every guild goodies except those 2? Theres just no damn logic behind it, and i am a real proponent of logic... Clearly someone high up in the mtg game is a total dillweed who makes decisions for .poops. and giggles.

Could have sworn we had a PG-9 rule or something of the similar, but now I've gone through I don't see it anymore. My apologies I thought it was a thing for certain.

Back to subject though, I actually found the style of temple releases odd as well. I would have thought they would release them with there aligned minor gods ({Temple of Malice} + {Mogis, God of Slaughter} Etc.)

The app is rated PG-9, so we were told to keep it like that haha.  Or at least it was like that forever ago.  Don't really know what Piotr thinks about that now.

The original set had 5 temples that matched with guilds seen in Gatecrash, to push those colors since they saw less play than those in RTR.

So youre saying its split 5-3-2? Now im even more POd because that makes about the same amount of sense(none!) as i originally thought but they werent even split evenly in the first 2 sets. How difficult would it have been to go 5-5? No, 5-3-2 makes WAAAAY MORE SENSE RIGHT?! Especially when the 2 that arent printed are 2 guilds that dont DO ANYTHING as far as i can tell! Theyre not even dominant!

They could just do an incomplete cycle. They have done that before...

Hopefully izzet will actually get some love in this third set.

They have been sitting in the corner for months twiddling their fingers in the dark

They did it like that for when rotation happens and those last two will be the two left to give the people who like those styles a chance in standard play:) actually makes more sense to me..

I just want a blue red temple for my commander deck. It would make it so there are no basics in the entire deck...

He's not required to watch his language, it's not in the almighty Piotr's rules. If he wants to say curse words he can. We're adults here.
Yeah but its just called general respect. Younger folk use the app and forums too, so wouldn't it make sense to behave like adults and not have to use language inappropriate for younger kids?

All Temples will rotate out at the same time. When next years rotation happens we will lose M15 and the entirety of Theros block.

That's a bad idea.  You want some basics to take care of things like {path to exile}. 5-8 basics is a good number.
And {Back to Basics}

I have enough counter spells in the deck to deal with all those including a metric ton of enchantment removal

They released the Gatecrash cycle in Theros to balance the amount of time those pairs got in Standard last year. Then, for BNG, the temples match the gods in the set whose temples hadn't already been released in Theros. JOU will have the last two.

Just because they have a reason doesnt mean its a good or logical one. Just sayin, its still pretty silly, its hard to argue that.

I think that hasbro is trying to milk wizards for all the profit they can. If they have to upset a few players, they will rustle some jimmies and seperate out the people who can't handle being in the wallet of a corporation.
