Don't get too excited, Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast have a history of disappointment. Wait until it's released.

I mean, it got announced last year and has an impressive looking trailer, and a website with a pre-register thing, so it doesn't look like anyone's planning on pulling it. However, the developer's site does have eight job openings pretty overtly advertised on the front page, so we'll see lol

It'll likely launch, but it'll probably be disappointing. So temper your expectations. Hasbro and WotC love fleecing their customers for money, so expect some kind of predatory monetization model.

Oh I'm aware lol, I played Magic for 20 years

I still do, and I play Risk as well (if only they'd bring back same time Risk...).

I watch Magic and that's it. Why? Because the game is too damn expensive.

And no 4 player Commander except on the client that is built on Windows 95 technology.

If you just wanna watch, I'm sure they wouldn't mind an audience at your local FNM, or maybe your LGS has a Commander night! But yeah, that's why I quit lol
