Getting Disgruntled

Nightstalkers

As you can clearly see by now I am a big fan of Nightstalkers. Yes, Nightstalkers. Those things that weren't very good in Portal 2nd Age that never really caught on and haven't been given any thought since Mirage was around. Now when Nightstalkers were realized in P2 everyone got disgruntled about the card artwork and how Magic: The Gathering to a surprising enough amount of guns. Sure it's not all that great to toss the guns into the M:TG mix, but it's not all that great to have it and then ditch the idea altogether. Even blocks somehow squeeze in ideas from past sets.

The disgruntling part of all this ranting is the fact that on the far southern island of Calimar they have invented rifles that knights have picked up in lieu of the traditional lance. In all of Dominaria only on this island do you find weapons.... but wait, Goblin Sharpshooter gets a machinegun.

Thanks alot art department.... you made me feel sickened that a blooming goblin can invent except about everyone else on the planet.

Personally, I was supprised that Time Spiral didn't have a few Nightstalkers around. I like the Nightstalkers creature type, and am still supprised that so few have been made-- I'd expect them to be like Thrulls, but apparently not...

They're a little more like horrors in how they interact with the game. But WotC supposedly went out of their way to not include anything from the portal sets.

I'm still awaiting the appearance of more dwarves... although I think they did reprint one in the Timeshifted cards...

Horrors? Those are more like Lovecraftian beings that are unfathomable and make you gibber and go insane.

They're more like Imps with Big Claws and Twisted senses of humor game-wise.

I have a feeling there will be a "dark" themed block coming out, and nightstalkers will return...

Pfft, I should stop emailing them and go back to writing letters to them.... Once a week getting the same letter over and over for 7 years of complaint letters from one person must not mean much...

What about just photocopying the letter and sending it via snail mail, and email... to a very widespread distribution list...

Sending it to one person really limits its visibility...

(getting off-topic)

I have never watched that movie straight through but due to all of the times it has appeared on cable, I've watched so many pieces that I've basically watched it all :)

But when is Mark Rosewater going to be the head of the prison so that I can blackmail him?

Blah.... years of copy pasta letters are probably not even getting to them and are being sumarily thrown away with the rest of the spam.
