Whos excited for it? The prices are ridiculous but the card reveals have been pretty cool so far. Hoping they add more dwarves than have been shown

I wouldn't say I'm super excited for it, but there are some singles that I'm really looking forwards too. Aragorn, the Uniter in particular looks like a fun 4c (sans black) Commander option, and some of the Sauron cards look fun too. I'll probably buy singles and maybe a fat pack if I'm feeling like it, but no box sets for me.

That's it. I run a commander cube and there are some fun singles that will be good for it. I might even be revisiting my themes, and thinking of adding legend matters and voltron archetypes. Hoping a cube focused community pops up at some point

I actually like LOTR, read the books, Silmarillion, the whole shebang (has been a while though). I am not a fan of the Universes Beyond stuff but I thought I might give the LOTR set a go.

I saw the previews and was just not excited at all. I am wondering myself why that is. I just do not care for other IPs in Magic, it doesn't do anything for me. Also not being Standard/Pioneer legal is a turn off. I am going to skip this one I think.

Edit: I didn't even look at the pricing before writing this comment - jeez.

I'm pretty excited to build some variation of a Cube from it. It seems like a good thematical set to introduce my friends over to Magic, or to pop out as "board game" in a box.
