In Magic: the Gathering, the players are represented by two separate but equally important groups: the play design team who designs the cards and the competitive play team who has to ban those cards two weeks later. These are their stories

Hollywood about to learn all of the wrong lessons from The Dungeons and Dragons movie. It's good because it's funny and the script is good. We don't need a Hasbro cinematic universe, just pay more for writers and less for Chris Pratts. That's it. It's not the IP, it's the script

Is your LGS selling the Brawl decks for under $30? Support your LGS. They could bust them for singles very easily and we need to reward LGSs who do the right thing in the face of a huge profit incentive. Are they gouging? They're $20.99 at Target
