They had Kaya free all the spirits the Orzhov had on contract after Kaya killed the ghost council, an exorcistic proclamation to free the ghost slaves. This event should have lowered the power of the Orzhov in the entire plane because without these contracts, they are just lawyers/bankers and worse law mages when compared to the Azorius. I doubt wotc thinks about the story beyond "cool moments" and creating characters to virtue signal.
Yeah, that was a real fucking shame, having Afro Nigger finish a plot that had been building for years.
That's the most annoying part of all the diversity crap, far too often it kills what can otherwise be a good storyline.
I mean Ravnica 3 was doomed from the start really, having to set up the Guilds to unite against Bolas meant they had to very quickly wrap up every "Badguy" in Ravnica. No matter what Teysa did (given that when we last saw her she got Caught by the Ghost Council and imprisoned) to do it one set was going to be fucking garbage to start with.

It's for me to con several friends into doing a virtual draft of and then play on Cockatrice; unfortunately this doesn't actually make WotC any money and it's generally not as good as just doing a cube draft.
I quite liked the original Ravnica, the concepts for the Guilds were good in most cases even if some received a lot more development than others in the fluff. For a magic based society it worked quite neatly.
The purpose of this set is to reprint cards from nonstandard sets, EDH staples and cards from the precons. That wouldn’t be so bad, but they do so in the worst way possible where you have multiple versions of the same card, which many versions have ugly or tokenistic art. WotC doesn’t care about the LGSs and small businesses. They wouldn’t be churning out so many exclusives and crap if they did care.
When did they start with all this "multiverse" capeshit? They already had an infinite amount of settings from planeswalking alone.

The magic finance community has been the best thing for Hasbro and the worst thing for the game. They're knuckle dragging pay pigs.
They are retards, that is what it says about them.
I'm going to play devil's advocate and say that Duals should be reprinted just to give access to Legacy/Vintage but not necessarily power 9 and other cards. Also, the over reprinting of new cards is lame as they're never allowed to breath before being tanked.
If you are breaking reserve list for Legacy/Vintage Access you kind of have to do the full power nine because the Moxen and Lotus are a huge part of Vintage.
Reprinting them to be more accessible is good, but these people would hurry to buy as many products as they could that contained these reprints to sell for as much as they can. If not that then they’d cry about how they’re losing money because they can’t flip them for as much as they want. It’s a perpetual cycle and the only thing good to come from it is watching retards cry over losing money.
Make Legacy accessible and keep Vintage the Mr. Money Bags Big Dick format, it's not that hard. The difference between Duals and any other card is you can hate out any other strategy without building a deck that either wins against duals or loses against decks with duals. The accessibility of answers also relies on duals in many cases, so they're really the only thing that really warps formats on the reserved list, as decks will run far more of them than any Power 9 card even.
That I agree with.
