    Its quite impresssive that there has never being a set made in Shandalar. It has basically become the place were famous people meet out or arrive by chance to later go on to start making history elsewhere.

      Some of the old core sets, like magic 2013, are set within Shandalar. When Dominaria narratively evolved past "generic fantasy," Shandalar became their go-to world for depicting that kind of setting, so its been part of at least a couple core sets.

      Oh, i do beg to differ. I can see Red, Green & Black managing well, but anything Blue or White being relegated to madness and the pseudo-demonic we see in most expansions. Was said they have alot of angels & soldiers there so there's clearly settled native culture.
      I can respect a plane so alien in its natural laws that its potentially fatal. Fractal, crystalline natives that insist its all reliable and sensible to them that any newcomers have to depend on Heavily as guides. That as soon as you start expecting rationality, mere perception eats away at you like a corruption.

      @@samcates5308 Eh, it doesn't bother me that much. Cactusfolk is a natural mix of mtg and wild west, but they didn't want there to be native sentient species because they both didn't want to positively misrepresent that aspect of the Old West and also knew accurately depicting real world atrocities wasn't appropriate. Yeah, it would have interesting if they went into who or what was responsible for the cactusfolk emergence, but that didn't really tie into any of the story they were trying to tell so I get why they didn't.

    Equilor seems super interesting. It's like Dominaria before Dominaria. It would be interesting to see a Core Set-style visitation to the plane in its prime thousands of years ago. Maybe each color of mana is represented by an atypical race. Things are mostly familiar, but just different enough to be interesting.

      IIRC Chandra was studying in that plane where Jaya had some kind of fire school. The school's philosophy is personal freedom as long it doesn't harm others. A evil Order declared everything they dont like to be destroyed including the fire school and that area. The Order hired Jace to take a dragon scroll (which ended up being the ugin's ghostfire card and the trigger for releasing eldarzi in zendikar) from Chandra. The scroll was in that museum. Chandra attempted to take it back but got attacked and the museum was set on fire from it.

You've got Crossbreed Labratories and their universities with about the same goals as Simic but even more drastic. Anything from lawful cyborgs and clockwork mansions to Brainstealing that somehow doesn't do lasting damage and is a neat opt out to Mortality.
