I can tell you’re passionate about the topic, which is wonderful, but if you’re going to attack me I’m going to disengage. Have a good rest of your day.

We don’t have to use it on every post. That’s not what it’s for. But if you want to just attack me, I’m going to step away. Have a good rest of your day.

Ok, I can tell you’re passionate about this and upset, so I’m going to disengage. You have a good evening.

And what exactly is scolding me doing?

I have? And you were one of those people, so I’m unclear what you’re looking for here.

Who is being silent? I said we weren’t involved.

I did address it. I said we weren’t involved.

If tagging a company in a social media post made something official, we'd be living on an even worse version of social media. #wotcstaff

What the other responder to your question said is correct. Anyone can buy prerelease kits if stores want to sell them. #wotcstaff

We didn't sponsor this and it wasn't even an official prerelease. Eric was just down there playing with some people he happened to know. Just because they tagged us doesn't mean we're involved. #wotcstaff

As usual, we'll be covering the B&R announcement (both Commander and 60-card) on WeeklyMTG tomorrow. If you've got questions, drop them here for us to answer! #wotcstaff

We talked about this on the stream. Short version: it’s a correct story moment for Shadowheart that also goes with a semi-popular background (Master Chef). So it was intentional for both flavor and gameplay. That said, totally get why you feel this way. #wotcstaff

Prerelease dates are not driven by preview windows, it's the other way around. #wotcstaff

The holidays are the reason we're running the test here. I do see why that paragraph leads to other conclusions. #wotcstaff

I'm seeing a lot of takes on why Lorwyn Eclipsed preview season is short. It's pretty simple: It's because of the holidays. A normal 2-week preview season would have started Dec. 29 or 30, when our offices are (rightfully) closed. Enjoy your holidays and we'll see you Jan. 5 #wotcstaff

The earth sits close as a giant figure of Doctor Doom stands behind it. A metal gauntlet clad hand wreathed with blue electrical light descends on North America as only Doctor Doom's eyes are visibile beneath the iconic metal mask and green hood. A cosmic backdrop acts as the background as faint embers can be seen at the bottom of the image.

Sorry everyone, WeeklyMTG is canceled today due to some last-minute, totally unforeseen issues unrelated to my completely foreseeable birthday. We'll see you next week! #WOTCstaff

So why do I keep going on and on about OMENS OF CHAOS? A couple of reasons.

Hey. Just wanted to remind y'all that this is coming. Look. Look! I convinced Wizards of the Coast to let me write a print MAGIC THE GATHERING novel!
