mana-ramp-matoran asked: Reprints Question: B!!! So much more Bs. MTG Desperately needs reprints to keep the eternal formats viable for new and more casual players. Plus it keeps things simple for enfranchised players. if you reprint a card that we already know its simple to understand if the card makes sense in the set and is a staple card, then new players can get a hold of it, then more easily transition into various formats because the new set that they collected a lot of happens to have some format staple cards.
Here’s the problem. The vast majority of cards that matter in Modern, that are powerful enough to be relevant in a format with that many cards, will horribly warp Standard. We experimented in Theros with Thoughtseize and it went quite badly.
