SB change ok, livable, legendary tool is just stupid, makes things WAY too easy, so much for board consideration. Just play whatever you want don't worry that your opponent already has it.
Yeah the more I think about it the more I get upset. I can't stomach this right now. I play Magic as often as I can on a competitive level. I pay money to play in larger tournaments. I play Modern as often as I can. This seriously upsets me. The repercussions are huge! Now one can swap out PW's when they topdeck another. "Yeah, I'm gonna -2 Lilly then play another. The second will stay in play, I'll let my first one die because I want to -2 you again.", "Yeah, my {Obzedat, Ghost Council} is going to beat your face in and not even {Lord of the Void} ripping one from the top of my library is going to save you now because they won't kill each other.". I hope when I wake up tomorrow this bullshit will be erased from existence. This is just plain dumb.
Well in that particular case the life gain and lose would cancel each other out
That's not the point I'm trying to make. They might as well have just removed Legendary from cards. There's a reason why cards are Legendary. It just makes sense. Having two in the same game causes a paradox and they both die because their existence at the same time is impossible. {Mirror Gallery} just got way less cool. Shapeshifters don't kill anymore. Just, idk. I'm extremely against this change. I hope I'm not the only one.

Oh I'm against these rules all the way. I find them taking away from the game, they should cancel these rules

They won't, and I'll still play, and the game will feel weird. Still a great game, but that's some sacred ground Wizards. I wish I could karma stalk them lol.

My mono blue commander lost its ability to kill legends now, and now everyone can have all walkers out? Total BS!

If they had karma for this what do you think it would be. If everyone had one vote. Good or Bad?

Man... This just made some of the cards in my custom set complete rubbish. I seriously hate this rule change. I don't think I can make that any clearer.

I think you could if you went out side the wotc building and protested these rules. Just saying

Too far. Too lazy. Too poor. Maybe if I got free cards out of it. "Here's some Modern Masters, now except the rule change and shut up."

Rules are rules and we all play by the same ones. Adjusting to the rules is part of the strategy of gameplay. These changes don't bother me I will adjust accordingly.

Quite utterly I am both shocked and disappointed in WotC. My next article will probably cover this change. I think the new rules are really just bad decisions. They already dumbed this game down to "HURR DURR ATTACK STRATEGY RULZ EVERY FORMAT". In my opinion, it is quite clear to see this was just another way for them to dumb the game down even more. While it has never applied to me, I do like the new sideboard rule for the kind of innovations it could make. The land rule is neither here nor there for me. It is the legend/planewalker rule I am unhappy about. I wonder how much longer I will continue to play this game. It seems to be a sinking mess right now that only gets worse as the years go on. Every modern deck I have built has taken ridiculous hits for no reason. Because of it, I have been shoehorned into a tier 3 bare bones deck. Standard is just a wasteland of Aggro. Legacy is dying due to the reserved list. And I wont even drop cash on Vintage since it is barely supported anywhere and would be far out of my budget. I guess pauper is still a thing . . .

Uhhh wtf is up withthe land change rule? Did they just completely kill ramp? Are you shitting me?

Birdbrain

They want to make it easier for new players to understand. Why do they want to do this? Because they think new players bring in most of the revenue. Why do they think this? Because there pissing off there veterans because they want to make it easier to understand for new players. It's a vicious cycle. You can see it with eggs, they want to kill complicated combos because it turns new players away from the game or something. Honestly, why not make a set speacificly for new players instead of this crap. Make another portal or something. Honestly, there turning the game into a aggro only game...

Birdbrain

Or maybe there just trying I get us to complain enough so they can shut this app down, saying its anti mtg

MisterJH

Im officialy quitting magic, all my cards will be up for sale next week. This is absurd
