I won’t lie, Thassa and Callaphe were easily the two cosmetic rewards I’ve been the most excited about and while a Blue Singleton Mirror Event has amazing flavor, I guess I was expecting another cool emblem

Edit: I really did enjoy this event despite my own grandiose ideas for what I thought it was going to be. Like I said, the flavor is phenomenal and that’s why I play the game! I definitely plan to do the event either on or off stream, but my ideas for what it was going to be have absolutely no bearing on the validity of event design!

Sadly, our Emblem Guy headed off to a deserted island with some animal friends at the last minute, so here we are... ;)

I kid, I kid. Really, we just try to mix up the types of events we offer, especially within a connected series like the Festival. Different Magic players like different play experiences, and we want to provide a wide spread - something for everyone, you know? Emblem events are sweet, but they can be taxing for newer players who don't own the more offbeat cards, and many players just don't enjoy building a whole new deck for a temporary event.

I hope you still got those styles and that it was at least interesting for you, even if it wasn't what you were expecting. And thanks for the feedback! #wotcstaff
