While I don’t feel as negatively about these sets as the other poster, the attempt to be “flashy” strikes me the wrong way. Even though it’s been years now, I feel the same was true for the sets you listed in your response.
I understand that they’re trying to market to a broad audience and generate hype for cool new worlds / themes / crossovers, but I’d prefer if the sets were slower and we spent more time on each plane.
I realize this topic has been beaten to death and I have a bit of old man bias with this, but I’m not thrilled that trend is continuing.
For sure. It can definitely go too far sometimes. Personally, I do prefer this to getting stuck on one setting for too long, and I definitely don’t miss block drafts, but there’s obviously a balance to be struck and I can commiserate with those not looking forward to so much variation.
