Raising the Bar, One Player at a Time

Remember. If you’re a jerk, people won’t want to play against you. And if you have nobody to play against, Magic isn’t very fun. True, it’ll probably never get to the point where everyone knows your MTGO name, your LGS, etc, but why let it even start down that road at all?

You might not be able to please everyone, but you don’t (typically) need to be a jerk to anyone. Magic is a community. Don’t make your part of it toxic.

-A werewolf named Chad

how… what is… did you just have this art lying around?? was it in a box labeled In Case Of Goblin Seduction 6-Pack Joke Break Glass? apparently this is a Magic card and I have a lot of questions for Magic: The Gathering right now

I can never remember this card’s real name because everyone just calls it “Abs of Treason”

The card name is “Enthralling Victor”. It has a ‘spiritual sequel’ card in terms of artwork called “Captivating Crew”, drawn by the same artist:

Abs of treason

Seeing a warped world is harmful for everyone, men included, because it leads to a warped world view. Seeing less women or minorities in entertainment sends a message that they are less important in the real world, that they play less of a role.

Having a majority of male players makes it even more important that we strive to make the game reflect the real world, because perceptions shape reality.

And that’s not even getting to the huge value for everyone else seeing themselves in the game. It’s hard when you’re used to seeing yourself always represented to get how much it means to people who don’t frequently have that opportunity, but I hear it each and every time we do it. It means a lot.

So, no warped entertainment *is* a problem and it does need fixing.
