Did you know you can do things? That the horrors of the world are being carried out by people who only do so because the *feel* protected, by money, & pieces of paper, & fear? Did you know all of that can be taken away if enough of you are organized? Did you know the world is yours to win?

Great video! The impact on game design becomes more clear with every release. This is a game. Playability will affect its success. What good is getting more players involved in a game that is a mess to play.

Magic: The Gathering card:
β€œUnable to Scream”

cast it from exile on a later turn.)

I thought this was a Spiderman comic?

In all seriousness, I love this cover art and I’m very excited this exists!

If only because Hollow Knight is a great game. You could definitely play Silksong before that.

To clarify I think there are pushed cards in every set, but I think it's pretty clear that the level of creep in UB sets is different than the level of creep in UW sets.

There’s a fairytale about a deck without any UB cards winning the Spotlight Series this weekend.

UB spiking power creep is for sure a factor, but the rapid release schedule that overwhelms players must overwhelm development. This game is so good. How good would it be if there were two less sets a year and development had that time to cross check work and revise things?

SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT EoE (if you liked the set TELL THEM WE LIKE inventive ambitious in universe cards because EoE got swamped and swept aside by two UB preview deluges before it even released)
