    NOW IT'S YOUR CHANCE TO INFLUENCE 9TH EDITION!
     
    ALREADY??
    dang i wanted 8th to last a bit more
     
    oh i see
    *breathes a sigh of relief*
     
    what sets will be included in 9th edition?
     
    Yup, every two blocks, they release a base set. Each block takes a year, so it means that every two years they're making a new base set.

    If you remember, 8th edition came out between Scourge and Mirrodin. This one will come out between the last Kamigawa set and "Control".
     
    "control" what's "control"?
     
    lol...
    nice sarcasm
    "Snap,crackle and Pop" you've been watching to much rice krispy commercial
     
    I actually have no idea whether it WILL be "Snap", "Crackle" and "Pop" tho. I don't think the magic designers are thinking this far ahead to have the codenames yet, but this MIGHT very well be...and call me when it is. lol

    Anyway, I don't know whther "ctrl", "alt" and "del" are going to be good sets or not tho, but chances are that it's either a Legend block or a 5-colour block (like gold stuff. I mean there are NO cards with the new gold border yet...well except for the tourney decks).
     
    ok i dont' know what the **** your talking about
     
    lol

    Okay, all sets have some sort of a codename to them. For example, Champions of Kamigawa had a codename "Earth". This codename is used to tell the difference between different unmade sets (so R&D won't get mixed up). Basically it's just like the cards with their codenames (e.g. Forgotten Ancient was "Mr. Babycakes"...or was it "Babyface"?).

    Anyway, statisically, most sets have a theme...and that themetends to be something that previous sets lack. For example, Invasion, Oddyssey AND Onsalught had little to no artifacts. Then we have Mirrodin.

    If you haven't noticed, we've been lacking gold cards and legend cards lately...

    So "Control" is likely a 5-colour/2-colour/enemy-colour/Legend set.
     
    ok
    you coulda just said that
    cause i never heard of codes
     
    no i js mainly focus on the cards
    see for instance you know rave/affin
    they all have like a name
    and the point is i don't know the names
