>MTG after planeswalkers: MOBA genre
>this is your daily reminder that zoomers are too stupid and adhd to play RTS games and need a commander/planeswalker to focus on, hence why they had to change MTG from a game that operates like a RTS to a game that operates like a MOBA. You can try to rebut this argument, but you'd fail because EDH is now the most played and supported format of the game, per WotC.

mobas are a millennial thing
Warcraft 3 had hero characters.
MtG already had Legendary Creatures, dipshit
It's deeper than that. Planeswalkers were the beginning of "engine" cards becoming mainstream i.e. cards that can provide consistent value every turn by themselves. They existed before but the shift becomes more pronounced after zendikar and much worse after tarkir. Planeswalkers were the beginning of that design mindset.

Mana dorks aren't engines you moron. A mana dork can't do anything by itself.
engines can't do anything by themselves either if you don't remember their triggers
Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
I'll do it again
>Buy puts on Hasbro (Ticker: HAS)
lol, lmao even, what an oddly specific rant
commander is literally a card game about being a cuck
you didn't win, Black Aragorn did
I never casted him, I just use him for his colors
>casted
Cast is already a verb.

Plaswalkers aren't really different from other card types, aside from being able to be directly targeted by creatures. Especially these days where they rarely stick around very long. In practice they don't really do much a an enchantment with an activated ability wouldn't do, other than theoretically having a very powerful activated ability that you'll never be able to cast because nobody is going to let them stick on the board for long enough.
And EDH isn't really analogous to MOBAs, where each player controls a single character. A better analogue would be an RTS like Warcraft III, where you have access to a powerful unit that can shape your gameplan. Though since, aside from a handful of cards that have effects that only work when used as the commander, commanders are no different from any other legendary creature in your deck their utility is less about their power and more about consistency: you can always cast your commander if you the mana, so you don't need to worry having to draw the card you built your deck around. A good EDH deck shouldn't revolve around the commander, though, as it will quickly become too expensive to cast after being removed multiple times. Instead a commander should act as a force multiplier and the deck should be able to work even if you never cast it. Hell, in cEDH commanders are often irrelevant since you really just with with Thoracle Consultation combo and every other card is just to help you find those cards and counterspells to stop other people from comboing off or stopping your combo.
Behind every “zoomers are stupid” post is a millennial seething in its pit of irrelevancy, a life squandered in useless self-indulgence, and public contempt worse then the fricking boomers, looking at the obnoxious little descendants exceeding them in entrepreneurship, public appeal, and success in life and personal goals, and going absolutely mad.
A millennial wrote this post and dearly hopes the governments of the world do the right thing and strike this entire generation from receiving any social benefits and thus not live the latter half of life as parasites after half life of uselessness or cultural extinction events.

>moron calls a game a "multiplayer online battle arena" as if that doesn't describe thousands of games
The term is Aeon of Strife, or AoS. ASShomosexualS is also acceptable.
>MTG is like a real time strategy game
No, not even close you gigantic wienersucking mongoloid moron.
Reminder that Planeswalkers literally exist because MTG was in its first freefall and they panicked after the 2008 recession. They are a pure power creep gimmick to brute force people into upgrading decks more often.
yes
