I can't find myself getting excited at all for Spider-Man, even though I've enjoyed plenty of Peter Parker-adjacent media. It just doesn't feel like a good fit for MtG at all, and the execution with the small set size still taking up a standard set slot rankles me. We should have had Lorwyn this year and instead we get... meh.
The Arena Omenpaths versions are so much nicer and I wish we got them in paper. If they did a print run of that I'd be on it in a heartbeat. (Oh no I've just conjured another 30th Anniversary Alpha Reprint into existence, haven't I)

Re: In This Thread We Talk About Magic The Gathering
Yeah, I feel nothing in particular about the Spider-Man set, either. I did think this card was a fun design space, but I already have 2 Orzhov decks so I'm good:

On the upside, I'm very happy with my "Squall Landfall" deck and will probably assemble my "Vincent Werewolf Sacrifice" deck next month.- Ragepyro

Re: In This Thread We Talk About Magic The Gathering
It's just such a dull set design wise imo. Like, it's all fine? But I feel like they pulled back way too hard when they shifted it from Modern->Standard? There's some decent things in there, but nothing hugely exciting overall.
Fleem is the only thing tempting me to make a deck, and even then that's mostly cuz I just love that little guy.
