As a recent convert. What the fuck are these names ? LET ME OPEN UP SCRUNGLE and use it to JINX my DOLPHIN. I get that they are trying to be witty but sometimes less is more.

    In all seriousness, I’m a bit young for much of it, but I know how to you feel. I feel like the idea of ‘niche’ has been destroyed lately. Everything is popular and nothing is unheard of. I miss having stuff that I and a few other dedicated people know about.

      the corporatization of MTG deck names has been a travesty. You WILL NOT name combo decks after breakfast food, you WILL use guild or clan names for colors even though the strategy has nothing to do with ravnica. Your favorite plane will be new york city.
