but I'm curious of anyone in the thread still trades at their LGS
Absolute peak time for me is during prerelease events - after the sealed event everyone was wheeling and dealing with their pool. Then there'd be some rounds of of pack wars with prize packs and random booster boxes from the people who pre-ordered them, then more trading after that. No money involved, the store wouldn't even take trade-ins on pre-release day.

I'm normally a "look up the market price" kind of guy with no negotiating because I hate the feeling of ripping people off but on those nights I'd embrace my inner (((merchant))).

Haven't been to a prelease since Capenna but that wasn't THAT long ago.

Tezzeret got Old and Fat and fled to the Edge to get Cheap Aether Pills and avoid having to pay child support on Ravnica.

My LGS shuttered during Amonkhet Block and nobody has ever bothered to open another.

MAGIC: THE GATHERING IS FOR THEY/THEM. FLESH AND BLOOD TCG IS FOR YOU.

I love the art on this piece, unironically. When women go enby (and it's almost always women doing that), it's usually for one of two reasons: either she's the most basic bitch imaginable and she's queering out in a desperate bid to be even slightly memorable, or she was molested as a kid and is queering out in a desperate bid to avoid her femininity. This art, with the stuffed animal, the cat, the robot with the soft and non-threatening face, so clearly shows a woman whose mental and emotional development arrested sometime in her tween years. It allows us to cleanly diagnose a case of "diddled by a male family member". It's great.
 
I"ll fight with @Honka Honka Burning Love in a little bit. I'm sure you're excited by this news:
To prepare, we sent a signal into deep space, calling out to the greatest orators we know to bring this story to life. And we've made contact! The Magic Story Podcast is teaming up with acclaimed voice actor Jesse Inocalla to produce audiobooks of every main story and side story for Edge of Eternities. These will release alongside each story, letting you enjoy these star-studded stories with an equally prominent star.

And a rules update:
We're updating the rules of Commander so that any legendary card with a printed power and toughness can be your commander! That means legendary Vehicles and (in the case of this set) legendary Spacecrafts can helm your deck.

I just have to speak out on this...

I'm salty they are not using Servos or Constructs. Robots? Really??? If there is not a robot secret lair featuring me (I guess Bender too) then this set is the worst ever!

Well that is just going to be busted.

Also the first Avatar card was posted.

So i got the FF secret lair cards today and if i can avoid it, i never want to go through the experience ever again. Queuing in a digital store and then when i get in almost everything is sold out. End it up buying the jap versions because those were the ones remaining and i can always use the practice on japanese.

Regarding the new rules for vehicle as commanders, not gonna lie, ill finally have a reason to pull out Parhelion 2 and make a mono white angel deck because i like the thematic. I like it and gives a new avenue to players to build new decks.
 
I’m not sure if WOTC has high or low confidence in this set because they’re printing shocks back into standard. Makes the racist lands from Drift better, but also means that standard is going to be even more of a mess.

Oh if they are printing shocks in a set that means the rest of the set is gonna fucking suck dick.

Racist lands?
Also, if they fix the meta with mono red and everything, it might be fun to have some shocks in standard. I’d be down to try out standard again.

I have one binder I'm going to finish filling and then I'm out, too. Trying to collect Magic is so frustrating. I can't think of another company that works so hard to not take my money.

Me: "Ive got money for a Secret Lair. Here it is. Right in my hand. Take it! TAKE IT!"
Hasbro: "lol, go play Sorcery, nerd."

These are the Day 2 results from the Final Fantasy Pro Tour. Top 8 is all red aggro decks. The absolute state of Standard.

Kilo is rather easy to set up thanks to the new Starship mechanics and how WotC made it so that Starships and Vehicles can be your Commander now, which is rather stupid.

At least Allies get support now.

In their (limited) defense, I didn't see any one card that goes infinite with Kilo by itself.
