In Revised, most all updates have a sense to them. The weird thing is that so many of the reprints are either too good or too bad. 4th tells most all of my early Magic stories and I have an undeniable affinity for 4th. On the other hand, while the first cards for me were Revised, the set I really cut my teeth on was 4th Edition. So I never bought a single booster of either set. Now, I barely played during 6th (as I was a teenager trying to get invited to parties rather than getting punched in the hallways), and by 11th my relationship with Magic was mostly steeped in casual oddities and foogey formats.

As The Gathering updates goes, those were the greats. Wanna know what a good core set revision looks like? Sixth edition (Classic) and Eleventh edition (Magic 2010). Though odd times beget an odd topic, so let's take a peek at a set we've never talked about here before. Easy trade.īut let's leave the world on the sidelines for a few moments. So maybe this will be the first Easter since 2008 without a 93/94 tournament in Gothenburg, and maybe doing so could make one less person sick. Giving up a small part of one's personal freedom to try and support society at large, even if just a little. The restrictions put in place in Norway somehow reminds me a little of my time in the military. That said, after two weeks of new rules and intense social distancing, I do not feel that bothered. I'd really like a spoiler season of sorts right now, having a small peek of what things will look like in a month.

Whenever I get the urge to write something profound or entertaining about the situation, my thoughts wander off to my friends in Italy and dejection overtakes any wit. There's really nothing sensible to write about it here.
