I'm not sure why WotC insists on insulting the community by changing commonly accepted terms. It will be interesting to see how long it will take for this to take effect. Certainly in writing EDH is much easier than the other term.Alien_Starfighter_Pilot wrote:@ $30 each, I'm worried that collecting this set will get a little expensive, but I LOVE the art at the bottom of the article. June seems so far away....
Nice to get the info out early though so we have time to provide feedback. Hope they keep us posted as the project progresses. Be nice if they would be open to suggestions and have a little input feature like in card design.
$30 is a little high but consider there are foils and new cards (evidently the new cards will not be type II leagal either).
Thanks for the heads up.

I don't think it will stick; the way I figure people will use the new name jokingly as it is a very corny name.mystical_tutor wrote:I'm not sure why WotC insists on insulting the community by changing commonly accepted terms.

squt: Sweet! That's the best trade - one that doesn't cost a thing.

It'll be fine. Elder Dragon Highlander no longer describe what the format has become. If it gets more cards into the card pool and ets more people playing, its a good thing. We'll still call it EDH just like everyone still calls it type 1, type 1.x, type 1.5, and type 2. We even have out very own "new standard" with extended. Players name things by themselves just fine. If you say EDH no one is going to question it.
edit: I'm also not sure what time you feel we have to provide feedback. Isn't this stuff finalized and sent to printing presses wayyyy before release? I'd think it would be at least finalized for card lists if not already sent to the presses by now.

Right on about terminology--just sad to see them miss building on what the community has. Though caquaa is correct to a degree there is still a lot of EDH being played.caquaa wrote:It'll be fine.

I think with a June 17 release date there is still time for adjustment though I'm sure you are right that some things are set--specially with new cards coming in. I didn't really fill that in. What I mean is that I think there is enough time for feedback if they want it. I'm of the opinion though that the only feedback they will look for is community reaction that they can use to gage how big the print run should be.
Really wish they would have something like they did for cards a while back where community opinion was actually solicited and used. I can see where that uses up manpower. In any case, it will be interesting.

Each of the Planar Chaos Dragons have been reprinted, and there are new Legends. maybe some of the new cards are secret previews of the new "Shake" set? doesn't sound like it in some of the articles, but you never know....

I'v had a problem with EDH/Cdr. My mind goes all over the place every time I try and build a deck and I never get one finished.
But I am confused about one thing. The list of banned cards on the WotC site under rules does not list any of the P9 as banned. The off WotC site link they give lists all the P9 as banned except Timetwister.
What really is banned?

The off WOTC is correct all power but Timetwister is banned. However, the online banned list doesn't talk about power as it doesn't exist online (yet?).mystical_tutor wrote:I'v had a problem with EDH/Cdr.

Ahh, I didn't pick up on the fact that the link was to a MOL page. Thanks, that clears that up (except: Why not Timetwister?).Ram-Gang wrote:The off WOTC is correct all power but Timetwister is banned. However, the online banned list doesn't talk about power as it doesn't exist online (yet?).Travis
