One of their head figures bribed young teens to strip down to their underwear and jump in fountains and also paid a 17 year old $20 to see his dinker after he said it was above average

Disgusting. $20?! That's an insult. No wonder those companies pulled out (no pun intended).

I thought banning "thuggery" would clean it up fast, but I guess I was a fool.

A lot of people are stepping down from doing commentary for EVO. Maximilian Dood is stepping down too.

nah actually, wizards already does a good job of banning people like that unsleeved media nut and shit - but their current problem is the lack of colored content creators so they need to work on that

Even though the prize pool for MTG is higher than fighting games, it seems drastically less popular. Probably advertising makes up the difference? I'm really not sure

But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

Probably. It's also a game where you kinda have to know the rules to appreciate what's going on. When I first started watching fighting games, it was very appealing even though I had no idea why one person was winning and the other was losing. Eventually the blanks filled in, but flashy visuals, popoff moments, come backs, sudden settings of momentum, etc make fighting games fun to watch even if you don't know the mechanics. I'm not sure if it's the same for card games.

what everyone else here said, the game is complex as shit - like Im not sure about hearthstone but from what I saw it was simple as fuck compared to some of the obscure things you can do in magic

Just speaking from anecdotal experience, but MtG players don't seem to care at all about pro level gameplay or anything. If I talk to a fighting game fan I bet they've watched tournaments of their favorite game(s), and can even name a player. Since I quit Modern, I've only really played limited and Commander though.

God I miss fighting game tournaments and MtG this year.

its because theyve been stripping paper magic down to nothing in an effort to hike awareness for arena - its a shitty practice
