Purp's audio quality going the way of the Magic card

Just wait until they bring back hand drawn art and they make that the special slot.

Sound issues start around the 9 min mark

I work in the printing industry, since COVID we have been having lots of issues with our paper stock being stock, AND our ink quality has turn to complete shit. Also our machines are falling apart and replacement parts just aren't available.

Secret Lairs are failing? What did they expect by filling them with cards that are barely worth anything?

I thought goblins were supposed to look different depending on their home plane. I'd only dislike this change if "small noses" is the design of all goblins going forward.

I'll be proxying every goblin from now on. I love their big shnozes. They're goofy little dudes

On the bit of Goblin noses, It's probably about avoiding antisemitic association. Would tie in with their banning of cards for similar reasons.

Wizards must have built his audio equipment

Gritty sound during talk about gritty cards.

Ngl, to me is either pull an Eldrazi Titan or Bust. Pull rate on any of them is horrendously low. Glad they got some awesome reprints though.

sounds like Purp is broadcasting this on AM radio😂

That's disturbing that the Japanese printed cards are going to garbage too

Is it just me or is there a static noise underneath the audio on this video?

You're gonna have to start taking "fine, luxury" out of your intro. Maybe replace it with "overpriced".

Wizards thinks goblins are Jewish its clear, they think orks are black and they think “tribes” as a work is mean to natives. There racist and think there making themselves look inclusive but no one was thonking this nonsense but them lol

Yep, was burned by lack of the Seedborn Muse promo. It was in my cart but I had to tackle a work task before I could check out. Came back, had to refresh my screen, and it was gone. We're talking about like 5 minutes of time. Pretty pissed because it was my only reason for ordering the bundle

There is awful hissing on audio quality fella, especially around 13 mins in I noticed 😮❤

I love how when card quality comes up his mic starts messing up lol.

Resolve has a denoise function in the studio version that could easily fix up your noise quality issue. Called “voice isolation”

The goblin nose issue is easy to understand. AI art generation struggles putting big noses on goblins. It wants to use make them elves.

The SLD should be focusing on offering great Illustrations, they sell well if the cards are useful. The Special Guest cards are amazing and I am glad they are a thing now, I hope they continue to make them. I only get SLD if it's an Artist series that I like, or if it has Faeries in it (I collect them and play them) And the only UB I would get as a Secret Lair would be Jem & The Hollograms.

Just found out this morning while playing on Spelltable that the French version of fracture is just wrong, the French v says Destroy target artifact, CREATURE, or plans walker. Our poor French player was so pissed when he realized he could've blown up a vital enchantment

My collector eldrazi deck came with 2 corrupted crossroads and no garruks uprising…. Not the end of the world, but also i have an extra land that only works in this specific deck and 0 copies of a card thats good in every green deck…

Did you leave the window open? There is quite some noise in the background throughout half the video.

aye thats my photo from the SLD

So how long until we get summer magic again and they just sell it as a secret lair?

Shout out to the radio static when talking about magic card quality 😂😂😂

Wotc is in a real "hold my beer" contest with games workshop for who can be the most anti consumer.

They also said they would ship Secret Lairs immediately but they haven’t shipped to most that bought it.

>Karlov Manor “Let’s break Ravnica with a hammer >Thunder Junction “Oh shit where’s that Gisa art we commissioned for our canceled M22 set?” >Bloomburrow “Get that fluffy kitten art out.” >Dudkmourne “Oh this doesn’t fit our 80’s Horror set? Doesn’t matter.

Even though hardly Magic these days I appreciate your content and if it be possible to play a game with you 😊 Keep up the great work 😊

I absolutely love that Elvish Mystic. I hope I get it in mine and not something else!

Japanese cards are made on recycled paper bc of the laws there, and it’s noted that it will impact the physical cards. I don’t know if this is exactly that, but it could be

Gave up even looking at secret lairs when they changed to limited run. Couldn't be damned trying to rush for anything and still miss.

Look pretty much nothing WoTC does will stop people from buying their cards unless the prices hit such a point where its literally unaffordable

can we get some chapters?

Small nose goblins is more upsetting to me than most of the bullshit we’ve seen in the past few years (and I’ve been genuinely mad about the recent BS; I’m just a goblin lover)

got to 1230 and couldn't handle the static. Sorry about not making through the video.

I'm here for the Doom, I was not disapointed!

How to make Secret Lair a success: 1. Print cards people want 2. Bundle them on theme 3. Commission beautiful alternate art 4. Put them in the retro border (this one’s for me)

It must be raining today lol

Audio quality = mtg card print quality 😬

I haven't looked at the math to know for sure but whenever I browse secret lairs on Scryfall, it seems like most of them balance out to be roughly break-even with the purchase price, often heavily weighted on a single card. Only very few actually end up being worth a lot, and equally few end up being worthless. So as always, if you enjoy the art and have plans to use the cards, buy em and enjoy em. Otherwise leave them alone. As investments they are pretty trash.

Blossom is angry about goblins

It wouldn't surprise me if "lethal throwdown" had been designed by AI. The text on that card is such a mess.

I get what people are saying about the Goblin redesign trying to fight antisemitism, but if you really look into it, that negative connotation of large noses runs even deeper. When race science started to become a mainstream thing in the late 18th century in Europe, something that came along with it was a concept called physiognomy. This was a way of prescribing moral characteristics and values to certain facial features, and led to a lot of really messed up stuff to uphold and enforce the cultural and ethnic hegemony of pale Christian Europeans, including antisemitic categorization of large crooked noses as belonging to deceptive and uncouth bad actors. This is the context on which institutional antisemitic discrimination was built in post-WWI Germany, as well as the horrific American tenets of eugenics that were being formalized into law at around that time. I think that WOTC wants to get out from under the thumb of Goblins being described in appearance through physiognomic discrimination as a reflection of anxieties and hatred in mid-19th to early-20th century central Europe. Some of their moves very much overstep into virtue signalling, but this was a private document that sought to curtail discrimination, and I agree with their decision. One need only look at some of the comments on this video to tell that antisemitism is still rampant. My dear grandmother was Jewish before marrying my Irish Catholic grandfather, and her parents came to the US (but first, Cuba, as the US also had a horse in this race) as children escaping cruel discrimination in Russia and Romania, and she doesn't deserve the vitriol and ignorance in our society.

Why isn't it Mega Magic Mondays? Always alliterate awesome accolades!

Not the first time they changed Goblins, won't be the last.

Imagine if they printed good cards in the secret lairs

They already shrank Krenko's nose in Murders so they have been at it for a while

if they just put cool versions of good cards, they would sell 🤯

Secret lair art is awesome but I will never pay for what they ask.

Somethin fuckey happened to the audio.

Wizards probably stopped caring about card quality in Japan because no one here is buying Wizards product. Pokemon is still the number one card game, and of course Yu-Gi-Oh and Weiss-Schwartz are still popular. Magic is certainly played, but it's nowhere near Pokemon in terms of sales or interest.

To anyone crying about the static in the sound: You would die watching tv in the 60's or 70's,and by the way he is an "OLD WIZARD AND HIS BACK HURTS"

Anyone who knows the allegations of harry potter and goblins, knows EXACTLY why they shrank their noses. It's par for the course. Its along the same lines as orks and those of my ethnicity with darker complexion.

with how things are going, i could care less about WotC using AI art as long as they increase the quality of the cards. Would love to see the powerstone token come back.

Gamespot stuff sounds like a money laundering scheme

that is some fuzz

Didn’t the fallout secret lairs sell out in a matter of minutes? Surely wizards of the coast doesn’t kill it on every single secret lair they make. I’d say for the vast majority more than likely sell pretty well. With that being said, have the past you been trash? Yeah.

Markov Manor ❤

sound quality goes to shit after 12min

The news about MTG specifically, and WotC as a whole over the last two years, sent me running back to Bungie like a junkie to their dealer last month.

Poor quality control on the video my guy…

Pretty funny ya talk about magic's quality, and your mic sounding was like "SHIT! WOTC'S QUALITY IS AIRBORNE!!!!"

Gamestop asking WotC prices for cards.

WOTC sound grit

The problem with the most recent secret lair products was poor card design (lack of rules text ect, or cringe card themes...) and crap card value.

Secret Lairs have, and always will be to me; FUCKING POINTLESS as a seperate product. They should be in the Main and Side sets as hard to pull cards. Like one per case or something….

I love Miku, but the artwork for the Secret Lair was so awful for me that I couldn’t bring myself to buy it. But in the end art is subjective and I wish that those Secret lairs got to Hatsune Miku fans that really liked the cards instead of scalpers trying to inflate prices in the secondary market… oh wait!!…

fuck the reprint train, AI, and corporate profit margins.

Can't finish watching. That audio quality.

What’s even crazier than the shitty card quality and inflated prices is that peeps are literally throwing money at these fools.

I can see AI being incredibly useful for them to evaluate card designs and test against the meta, but not so much for art. A game that prides itself on its human-created art should steer well clear of AI art. Magic isn't some fly-by-night Kickstarter TCG, Wizards!

They are changing the design of goblins specifically because wizards of the coast seem to think that the old goblin design is an antisemitic stereotype. So they want to change their appearance. This is a thing that people accused JK rolling of doing in her books.

Hissing and popping throughout the video. Maybe try exporting again?

Jesus, I'm old. Who/what the fuck is Hatsune Miku?

Wow... seems like my boycott of WotC is just never going to end at this point. Might just look to sell my whole collection before it is entirely devalued via reprints.

Ive never been happier to have left this anti consumer company in the dust. Imagine paying a premium for the equivalent of keychains out of those gacha machines...

I just tested my theories and its easy to abuse mtg arena XD. went from plat 4 to mythic in a little over 3 hours (excluding the few idiots who stalled for time XD)

You have serious issues. - Wizards Probably

Evil Wizards

I still roll my eyes when they got rid of witch as a creature type but kept witch as parts of creature names. Wokeness is a laughing joke.

i think wizards hacked your mic

The reason for the goblin "redesign" is because one of the DEI consultants said the noses were a reference to a religion that has a certain star shape associated with it and they needed to distance themselves from that imagery because of the "Harry Potter" crowd. This is the stupidity happening behind the scenes.

lorb uv da wings

the traditional goblin design has antisemetic roots, with the nose often being an exaggerated stereotype so i see why they are changing it. I mean, its dumb, no one was saying the goblins are antisemetic, but woke is woke 🤷

Audio horizons 3

Good thing I also play Pokemon and flesh and blood 😂

Its good to see politically motivated censorship exerting censorship in clearly non-political card games again. That is very much needed to save the rights of individuals suffering under social dismissal and not just the purses of a few litigious individuals as usual.

yah purp your mics fucked, lol

Maybe the Goblins look too much like Mark Rosewaters mom! Boom, roasted! 🤣

Goblins have a root in antisemitic tropes so smaller noses/more variance of noses could be that change could be interpreted as a good thing

Failing, but out of Stock. Idk

They can and will use ai art. They prob already are

Audio is bad

Goblins in certain depictions can be used as antisemitic caricatures, with the biggest modern example being the goblins from the Harry Potter franchise. Personally, I don't think the MtG goblins really invoke those stereotypes apart from having big noses, I guess, so I don't personally think this was a necessary change. The vast majority of MtG goblins are chaotic and mischievous creatures that love machinery and explosions, not greedy and malicious ruling class bankers.

the cards power lvl are just getting nuts....and it doesn't seem as fun anymore...its now a power struggle of whos got the strongest 7 ....stupid...
