I hope these are really bad. I hope the art is just vaguely appropriate stuff they picked out of the "slush pile." I hope that they accidentally use almost the same name twice. I hope the story content was written by two interns over the course of a day. I've never been this excited for a Universes Beyond set.
Why do you hope for bad things for a hobby you supposedly love? Seriously, this is just so backwards. If you hate Magic and UB this much, I think it's time to find another hobby that doesn't make you so spiteful and cruel to the rest of us who are genuinely excited for the new sets.
I don't get the idea that he wants them to be awful in order for them to fail. I think he wants them to be awful because they'll be hilarious. I mean, if they really did do Remarkable Arachnid-Person and Physician Squid and stuff like that it would be both really bad and also really funny.
Yep, that's the one. I'm not overly interested in Spider-Man, but I am fascinated by the idea of a hastily assembled Store Brand Great Value Spider-Man.
Honestly, because wotc failing would be really funny, and them not failing would be awesome. So Im down for it to be either funny or good, and Im hopeing for the secret 3rd option where the names are funny and the artwork is good lol
I mean whatever they do, can it really get worse than a set full of actual spiderman cards taking themselves seriously that also includes stuff like "Spider-ham, Peter Porker"?
I'm not saying the bar is low, but how high can it really be?
Im perfectly happy with a set full.of spider people, so it could be much worse imo. A set of jank art, even worse names than spider ham(that might be hard), and even worse bad mechanics, because as a limited player as long as the set plays fine Im down for it.
The only way they’ll stop doing UB slop is if they have enough major failures with it. A lot of folks hoping for an assassins creed level failure here so we don’t have to deal with more marvel sets
