I can't wait for them to squee over the retardation that is all of the oil instantly vanishing forever because Phyrexia got switched with Zhalfir.
I still hate how they did this couple dirty in the third Ravnica visit. The only reason that WOTC is trying to retcon that couple breaking up is because the fans that cared about the story were pissed at what went down. Jace and Vraska's dynamic in Ixalan was one of the few good points of that story.
I would say most of Ixalan was good to the point where it is the best story line in the years after Origins did the soft reboot, my only real complaint is that Ugin never really got called out for his part of the Immortal Sun plan.
Allison Luhrs is one of the few competent writers at wizards. She wrote the whole of Ixalan/rivals, and is always brought back whenever Vraska and Jace are the subject of the story. A lot of the set stories are written by multiple artists which makes it hard to get into them.
Oh the actual writing in the Jace/Vraska bits are usually quite nice, even the outlaws of Thunder junction bit.
Retarded if anything she's the symbol of New Phyrexia, their champion if you will.
They kinda became a Plane which will be all sorts of fuckery that comes with it.
Canon is malleable.
They used to be gods now they're mercenary wizards who blip out or fucking die.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This was before that and that has some massive issues that I am wondering if this podcast is gonna mention.
Yeah it's really weird that they did not bring up Nicol Bolas being a planeswalker when he was mentioned.
"We were god's once" - Bolas.
I mean she doesn't have the Preator Type, that is sort of a very important indicator.
I actually think this is an oversight between lore and game mechanics. If anything at the time of MOM, Atraxa would be considered the only Praetor according to Norn.
Not as pissed as the fans were that Chandra decided not to be a lesbian at the end of War. They were so ass-pained.
Gix being a Preator is a retcon, he was never mentioned as having that title whatsoever. Neither did Tsabo Tsavoc, Crovax or Volrath. The entire concept of a Phyrexian Preator didn't exist in lore until New Phyrexia when it became the word they used for the 5 rulers of the Mirrodin Biomes.
This was the only based thing the faggot writer did besides name a character Rat. Bossman representation before it was cool
There was a character named Rat before, it was short for Ratape and he was one of the main characters in the Planeswalker book.This was the only based thing the faggot writer did besides name a character Rat. Bossman representation before it was cool
I'm amazed she doesn't have a card yet, as she was critical in keeping Tayo alive and ensuring the war of the spark was won. Plus she killed Dovan Bann.This was the only based thing the faggot writer did besides name a character Rat. Bossman representation before it was cool
while it's a cocksucking faggot program, MTGArena is free (in the bare minimum sense) and teaches you how to play, and you can play endless practice games with the basic bot. That's the best thing that's out there to teach you how to play beyond picking someone on youtube that you find understandable, or being taught irl by someone who knows the game.
Volrath and Crovax both held the title of Evincar at various points. Not sure why they didn't re-use that for New Phyrexia.
That's not true, I'm pretty sure they called him a Praetor in the books back then, but I don't have them on hand. However, in the Vanguard card flavor text, which came out in the late 90's he's defined as a praetor.
Evincars were specifically the rulers of Rath appointed by Phyrexian inner circle members and Praetors. Before Crovax and Volrath there was a guy named Davvol who was very weak and mostly known for his ability to service things, but he played a big part in the Bloodlines books and was appointed by a never depicted Phyrexian known as Croag. Davvol shows up on several cards and that black thing on his head is because his people are born with soft heads that never stop being soft, so the Phyrexian grafted a metal plate onto his head to make him stronger.
Man, the autistic nerds on this thread should start a MTG lore podcast. We're already demonstrating more ability than the others.That's not true, I'm pretty sure they called him a Praetor in the books back then, but I don't have them on hand. However, in the Vanguard card flavor text, which came out in the late 90's he's defined as a praetor.

Tsabo wasn't a Praetor, she was just a random general.

If you want to get into the even deeper lore. The pfp of the re-poster is of a viera from final fantasy tactics advance. Game came out in the early 2000s.
