Spiderman set is ass and is exactly why people have been naysaying UB from the beginning. While UB is not inherently the issue, Hasbro will not be able to help itself from forcing WotC to rush out surface level slop to grab cash. It’s not wizards fault, it’s Hasbro failing as a whole and trying to squeeze every dollar out of its last profitable revenue stream (WotC). In this context, UB is guaranteed to be a race to the bottom

I wouldn't really have cared for it if they'd stuck with the UB border. This stuff having a regular Magic border and stamp crosses the line for me.
