Hello everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Magic Show. This week we talk to the creators of our favorite game, from Rosewater's Mana Fixing design progression to Aaron Forsythe's Lorwyn regrets. Hear from Hall of Famers, Richard Garfield, and Olivier Ruel when faced down with the ultimate question. Let's go!
Topics Covered (in order):
Lorwyn Regrets
Will We Ever See "Destroy Target Planeswalker"?
Turian on Obelisk Development
Garfield on his Current Level of Involvement
Question Mark (Play Along!)
The Longevity of Magic
Turian & Olivier on Making the Hall of Fame
Ruel Shows His Hall of Fame Gift Pack & Memorial Scrapbook
Progression of Mana Fixing Design
Too Much Multicolor?
The Return of the Invitational... Someday
The Question
In previous years, I would also have a separate segment on my reactions to the Conflux spoilers. I've since realized I'd rather pace myself than work feverishly trying to get Yet Another Segment finished. I'll see you guys next week with all the funny I can muster.
Also: Please tell me what you thought of the Magic Facts!
