    "The core of magic" and "Treat it seriously as a property" Posted right around the time there's a goblin instagram secret lair and a comic sans secret lair, that shipped has sailed already.
    Or to put it in other terms: Do you *REALLY* think there's that much difference between a potential Taylor Swift Secret Lair and the just-out-of-sale Hatsune Miku Secret Lair? Again don't be shooting the messenger, I'm just saying we're already within striking distance of a Swiftie drop.

    Many players I know have pulled back from MTG the last year or two, for a variety of reasons. Product quality, product overload / fatigue, WOTC's treatment of employees. If they come out with either of these, might be the final nail in the coffin...
    One of the things my playgroup has done to keep interest, we built decks with only MTG IP cards and printings. We don't use any universe beyond or within. Might just be us, but those games are almost always the funnest of our game nights. 🤔

    I REALLY hate to say this, but there is no magic in Magic anymore. I mock their game as IP: the Cashening or Commander: the Castening/ Commandening because of this fact. The Beyond stuff NEEDS to be it's own format- like Uncards; if they want the fandom on their side again, we need to see Magic as Magic and Beyond as Beyond.

      There's a large difference between putting something like Warhammer 40k or DnD in Magic, and putting things that are not even representative of a closed-off, fictional setting concerned with internal consistency into the mtg universe. Walking Dead was the first offender, but not all UB are created equally. And I'm an opponent of them also - still, it is not fine to claim all of them are equally bad.

    The issue is that there is no identity to the game anymore then. What does 'magic the gathering' mean when it is literally any genre, with any background, any setting, even real, historical or contemporary figures... it has absolutely no identity anymore and even the flavour explanation of planeswalkers battling one another makes no sense anymore. What, I am summoning Optimus Prime from a cartoon to battle Ezio who's from a video game and the third dude is putting doctors from a drama on the field?
    I think there is no other game that compromises its core identity as much as mtg. At least I cannot think of any single one, because Fortnight has never been anything else but a mish-mash. Not even Monopoly is as bad as this, because that at least still generally stays within the context of property buying and selling. What does it mean for some doctors to appear in an mtg context? Absolutely nothing.
    They had a huge influx of players through UB so far. But the biggest ones were Warhammer and especially LotR. Those specifically fit pretty well into MtG as Sci-Fi and Fantasy, so them applying that success to all UB's unthinkingly is a big mistake imo.

      That question to Mark was absolutely Retarded. He says his wife doesn't like Magic. Ya don't say? But maybe she would like it if there was a Taylor Swift set? WRONG! She might collect the Taylor Swift set, but only for that reason. She would not become a fan of Magic gameplay as a result.
      Magic is known as one of the most complicated games in the world. That is the main barrier to entry, not the lore, characters, planes, or anything else. Being mana screwed, or flooded, or losing your creatures to removal, or being countered, all of these are off putting to noobs.
      People will either like Magic and want to learn more, or they won't. You cannot trick them into liking what Magic is by dangling some shiny keys in their face. They will be distracted by the shiny keys, but as soon as that goes away, so does their interest.
      P.S. WOTC needs to fire Mark Rosewater. Answering that question that way is corporate suicide. I know Hasbro would love to trade the entire Magic fanbase for a crumb of Taylor Swift's fanbase, but you don't say that openly!

    LOL it a game, the end. When they started the other IP, we all knew that would open the door to anything and I mean anything. Not upset at any cards being added, I played for years and magic is not this holy game that Mitch(others thinks it is). Play the game the way you want, even make up new formats for your play group and go play some other games/activities. Hmm Taylor Swift commander with card around her songs interesting. Funny I think in the end people are/will move away from MTG is card overload and the cost has just gotten higher and higher and not IP stuff.

      You're right about card overload and cost, but you are naive if you think that IP stuff like this won't be the final straw for a lot of people who were on the cusp.

    Making a Gray's Anatomy Secret Lair will open the floodgates to make them from any TV show past and present. How ridiculous is that? If there is a dollar to be made, Hasbro / Wizards are going to milk everything on the planet to get more. Once a Taylor Swift Lair comes out, expect other bands to be on them. Thank you for the video.

    Mt. Dew is basically like gamer fuel; little letters, so descriptive, not the copyright product, and it comes in umpteen colors now, so I can almost imagine a simple set of Lands, in a Secret Lair, for each kind of mana, reflected in a different bottle of Dew, like Code Red, Whiteout, the regular kind, the blue one, etc. Still, make me look sexist, or not, I just don't, personally, see enough of what I ignorantly see as the typical MtG fan base having a big interest in Taylor Swift, or Grey's Anatomy, and them actually making a product out of it, and that before having Hasbro, till all are one, needing to get with her PR people, or their producers, and convince them THEY want to associate with hungry Hasbro, for a soulless product. Has TS ever claimed she plays Magic? Has ever played Magic? Would Grey's Anatomy just be Doctor support for everybody's favorite Time Lords?😊 Sure, not every Magic player today is a sweaty, wheezing neckbeard, playing in a basement, waiting for their friends to finish building game characters, or 10 year old kids, and I suppose anyone can like Taylor, or that show, but would it move products? Enough products to justify paying Taylor to use her likeness, plus profits? I just don't see it, in tbe same way I don't see them making better products, like several anime sets, simply because it wouldn't be cheap enough, but still profitable enough, to be worth it. That's just ignorant me, though.

    Taylor swift- when Taylor Swift enters (🙄), each creature loses indestructible and gains deathtouch until end of turn. Each creature deals combat damage to itself. This damage can’t be prevented in any way. Then, each player loses the remainder of their life points.

      I would love a PR set or secret lair as Hasbro could potentially make a team or setting based around Magic. If we’re just looking at Precon we could have a Ranger deck, “Make My Monster Grow” deck (It focuses on bringing back creatures from the grave and giving them buffs), a Zord Voltron’s deck, and a Foot Soldier token swarm deck.
      But unfortunately for what ever reason Hasbro seems to be allergic to nurturing the IPs they own. Who knows, it might change in the future but as of now any PR love is coming from just the Fans.

    Flavor wise I’d want her as an esper mana cost, 1/3 body w/ menace. Whenever Taylor attacks search your library for an aura card w converted mana cost 2 or less, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle. Whenever a creature your opponent controls is put into a graveyard, if it was enchanted create a treasure token. Tap: destroy target enchanted creature . Basically she’s an enchantress commander who goes “on tour” w attacks, taps to kill her enemies she enchanted to create “content”.

    • @rsm014
      @rsm014 13 дней назад

      Lower powered zur, that gains more power as the game goes on. Menace means you need aura removal to attack through a board state. Asymmetric ability phrased so you retain value over time. “Auristocrat” Commander

    If they make a Taylor swift secret lair. That will let me know it time to sell everything I have and never play mtg again. I started playing since 1993. And have tons of old cards. I have been debating whether to sell everything for a while now. This would just be the nail in the coffin for me. Truthfully, I would rather just see them undo the reserved list that make Taylor swift into a card.

    Well, we are getting four separate Hatsune Miku Secret Lair drops, so I don't see why WotC wouldn't make a Taylor Swift Secret Lair. At the risk of drawing the aggro of the weebs, Miku is basically anime Taylor Swift at this point.

    • @shorewall
      @shorewall 13 дней назад +1

      Lol, I get that their function is the same, as popular singers, but Miku is a program that is personified and grassroots. Anyone can use and control her.
      Taylor Swift, who I like, is a cult of personality, aggrandizing herself.

    • @Thoughtmage100
      @Thoughtmage100 13 дней назад

  • @Jtsqueaker

    Taylor Swift should have been a 4-mana WURG planeswalker that enters with 2 loyalty. Her abilities should read as something like the following:
    "If a non-Boyfriend source your opponents control would cause Taylor to lose loyalty counters or leave the battlefield, you may sacrifice a Boyfriend to prevent all damage and have Taylor phase out instead. When Taylor phases in, if you control no Boyfriends, create 12 gold tokens. (12 because she has 12 songs that were #1 hits at the time of this comment.)
    +2: Create a 1/1 human Boyfriend creature token.
    -3, Sacrifice a Boyfriend: Create a 0/1 Loyal Fan creature token with trample and vigilance. Whenever Loyal Fan attacks, it gets +X/+X where X is the total toughness of creatures the defending player controls."
    This feels more thematic because she can only be hurt by boyfriends but getting new boyfriends also helps her get more loyal fans or lets her remove boyfriends from the picture for her benefit. 😂

    • @shorewall
      @shorewall 13 дней назад

      Lego has no lore. Magic was built on lore. If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything.
      Being too inclusive, in terms of IP, waters down the product, takes away it's identity, and drives off its core audience. If you think it can't happen, look at Star Wars, which went from a must see movie experience, to made for TV only, and the MCU, which couldn't last forever but has little interest from fans anymore.
