Obligatory 1st
The ending to the new phyrexia saga was so lame. Urza had to fight phyrexians for millennia . This time the phyrexians lose almost instantly. It felt like a non ending.
I wonder if the immortal sun has the capability to prevent the omenpaths connecting to the plane it resides in.
Since the planes are now connected by the omenpahts, wonder if we'll get a set that is about an academic competition between Tolaria and Strixhaven.
I won't comment on how rushed the story felt, but now we have 3 big bads in a "break in case of emergency" glass. Nicol Bolas in the meditation realm, Emrakul in the Moon of Innistrad, and now Phyrexia in the temporal void. Unless they bring planar menaces back in the limelight, like Baron Sengir, I guess only Tezzeret remains as a "bad actor".
If I recall from the mtg trailer they showed nicol bolas yet he no where to be seen in the set đ˘
Such a narratively unsatisfying ending, but then that's what I expected from creatively bankrupt WotC. I wish this IP could find a new home away from the greed of Hasbro, where creatives could develop it into what it could be.
kind of annoyed that the way they chose to turn the story around was just to go "hay you know that planes destroying bomb we found that would annihilate anyone caught in the blast? well it turns out the person who at ground zero is actually still around and is now an angel!". sounds like they wrote themselves into a corner.
This is so sad. All the potential wasted. Actually I think the lore of MotM is worst then WotS, the stakes were a lot higher! Amazing how nowdays the jobs seems to end in the hands of the least capable persons!
Love these Lore videos. I always listen to them when I go to bed. Helps my mind to relax and drift away
Random question but who is more dangerous, the Phyrexians or the Eldrazi?
dont know it was somehow anticlimatic and deus ex machina how they finished this phyrexian arc, it would have nice to see something, like they beat new phyrexia, but with the return of yawgmoth in secret
I think with Phyrexia phasing out of existence, it was like the threat made by Yawgmoth all those centuries, no thousands of years ago, was finally stopped and ended, with the glistening oil, the very first thing the twisted scientist used to make his mad visions a reality, made render inert by the failing of his successors, his dreams of completion and his obsession with perfection may finally be over. For the oil was first thing he corrupted and it also ironically the thing that finally ended his madness for good.
Is Jace freed from corruption?
Is it just me or does a multi arc, complicated story with a huge supporting cast where chandra is the MC that gets to have a big hero moment to save the day at the end the kind of thing that would be covered perfectly in a tv series? Like oh idk, maybe a Netflix show where chandra is the main character or something, idk

It seems to me that the New Phyrexian invasion is meant to be a paradigm shift on the level of the Time Spiral Crisis.
great video! wotc story is trash and is so frustrating for me as I use to love the lore then got tired of the long duration of poor effort to get interested again and for what⌠Nothing whole lot of nothing. fool me once, fool me twice and im out gl
Yo, long time fan, love the channel bro đ just wanted to say, you're the only one that tells these stories in a way that keeps it interestin for me… The way wizards have been handling the lore the last few years…𤎠, so for you to find a way to make it sound compellingđŻđ super impressive
God that ending was so stupid. "Without Norn's control, and with its connection to New Phyrexia severed, the glistening oil's corruption halts. It's rendered harmlessly inert…" THAT'S NOT HOW GLISTENING OIL WORKS!
Fire whoever is working on the MTG story, like seriously they need to go. They clearly don't know what they're doing and making shit up as they go, hoping it fits in canonically with past writings (it doesn't).
If the multiverse is Gondor, then Zhalfir is Rohan.
You work and passion is notable, but wotc created a rushed and piece of crap storyline they only care about making a fast half job this have near 0 love. But nevertheless you work is remarkable sadly you can't save the disastrous work of wotc.
so phyrexia lost due to BS plot armor angel stuff? damn they cloud make a set out of 2-3 of the planes that where invaded.
I wish we got to see more of phyrexia before it was exiled. Hearing the terrifying hell scape was something cool that we havenât really seen in magic
Ashiok is about to make a HUGE comeback!! Sheâs putting ppl to sleep and I truly hope we get a reprint of Ashiok or another version of her!!
Love this.
