Due to database maintenances, there will be a downtime om Saturday, 2025-05-17, probably a couple of hours.

Wrenn and Realmbreaker left an acorn, and Teferi planted it on Zhalfir. Does it mean Zhalfir is going to be the setting for next Un-set?

Maybe. : )

All I can say is I know what set is doing it next.

How do you track, when designing cards, whether a character can still be made as a Planeswalker?

We have a list of who still has their spark.

I understand how lack of player knowledge on source material could be an issue (re: Eldraine), but isn’t part of the appeal of adapting said source material that players can experience it in a fresh way? Whether or not they knew it’s Arthurian origins, many players thought questing beast was neat.

A lot of Throne of Eldraine was Camelot-inspired. I believe close to half the set. That half didn’t do nearly as well in market research as the other half. A big part of the problem is Magic does knights all the time. It just doesn’t feel novel. Black Knight was pretty novel in Alpha.

Are there any sets planned that you can talk about for 2024 that don’t involve revisiting an existing plane? A yes or no is fine, details not necessary.

I’ve already said 2024 will have us visiting a new plane.

What are the chances of a cycle of 2 mana, mana rocks even with drawbacks or did the signets and talismans make this unlikely?

I’ll say not high.

Two things about today’s article: 1) It’s surprising how much of the individual designs for the phyrexian transformations stayed, down to the colors. 2) “Polukranos Re-Norned” is an awesome playtest name.

We announced this year’s sets last summer.

Do you consider the Leylines a colour pie break, given that they’re frequently played in decks that can never cast them?

That’s taken into account in their design.
