This article sums up my feelings precisely. I want to go back to when Magic was Magic and not a hundred other things with no depth. I’m fine with planes like Eldraine where it’s “Magic’s take on fairy tales”, since there was some creativity and depth there, but New Capenna, Karlov Manor, and Thunder Junction all feel really cheap.
Same here, I strongly disliked Capenna and Murders and I really hated to see Thunders previews.
When the Brother’s War and the Dominaria United sets were released, they fell back behind my expectations - I immediately compared them with my all time favorites Tempest and Urza blocks (flavor wise). But then, compared with Thunder Junction I think the “new” Urza sets are really good…
Why does everything have to be shiny and sparkly? Give me Phyrexian Colossus, Spirit of the Night or Volrath instead of humanized demons in cowboy hats or suits please.
