bobbysapphire asked: Do you guys ever kick back and play any other games to take a break from magic so you don't get burnt out? Like Guillotine?

pixelador asked: Like many games, Magic is relatively easy to learn how to play, but much harder to be great at. As a player and designer of the game, can you share any insights into what separates an adequate or good Magic player from a world-class player?

dukkhasatva asked: At what point in Innistrad's design was Grimgrin made? Everybody seems to have forgotten Army of the Damned was actually "the Zombie mythic" because Grimgrin looks more in line with Olivia, Geist and Mikaeus. Do they have nothing to do with each other?

dukkhasatva asked: If given the chance, would you make Invisible Stalker a legendary rare instead (So things like Phantasmal Image can kill it just like Geist of Saint Traft and Thrun)

r4i6 asked: A lot of talk has been going on about how Archangel's Light is probably one of the worst mythics ever. What do you think of it?

mathhombre asked: Why oh why print a cheap (cmc) hoser for a huge chunk of the set's mechanics available to all colors? I could maybe see a 4cc white enchantment, but a 1cc artifact is blowing my mind. Is something in the set that broken? Is it fixing modern at the invalidating 40% of your new block? Seems incredibly inelegant on top of it. For example it could have oblivion ringed (rung?) the graveyard...

pauljwoods asked: Before DKA was previewed, I've sent you this question multiple times through here and Twitter. "Why do Falkenrath Marauders have wings?" Can you answer this now that DKA is out or do I need to wait for AVR?
