     @Soy_Magnus Yeah fuck having a nigger deck lol
     In fact I took out a negress wizard from that same deck today; that card was actually pretty decent, but ultimately irrelevant (Omenspeaker).

     @menherahair I still want to know what Invoke Prejudice's multiverse ID was. Apparently it was """unfortunate""" and contributed to the ban.

     > As if that wasn’t enough, when you order Magic cards chronologically by set then alphabetically by card name, Invoke Prejudice is the 1488th card and was was therefore assigned the ID of 1488 in Gatherer.

     I figured it was probably 1488, because what other number is itself "racist"?

     @teknomunk @menherahair I thought similarly, but IIRC I checked 1488 and it referred to some other card.

     The number probably got reassigned to a different card that wasn't politically problematic. :02_shrug:

     @Zerglingman Azami is the only deck of magic cards I have left. I sold all my other cards but when people ask me to play I pull out my mono-blue pickles lock deck and make everyone miserable because you should be if you’re still playing magic at this point.

     @Mamako based
     I think Magic is fun if you're just drafting without paying, that's pretty much the only fun way to do Magic.
     And mana is still dumb. They have cards now that you can choose to play as a land or as a spell, every card should do that, and should have done that from the beginning.

     @Zerglingman I also enjoyed limited formats. I think Force of Will had a better system in general.

     @Soy_Magnus Actually
     There are a decent number of red cards that steal things from the opponent's board.
     Not many black cards that do that.
     I could make a deck based around that premise, it just wins by using the opponent's cards, and make sure that all the artwork features niggers.
     See how many people notice.

     @Soy_Magnus Only if they figured it out on their own.
     Also, if they figure it out, every time I use a steal effect, I say "gibmedats"

     @Zerglingman @teknomunk it *was* 1488, you'd go to https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=1488 and it'd pop up, but they changed it to 485302 and the old one redirects to nothing now.

     @teknomunk @Zerglingman they link the google docs piece that spurred the reaction, but don't mention how it happened just few days before the bans, and how they only changed the id because the guy straight up pointed it out there lol https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RDhVZ4x_Zf1abOpGfEGMI4xtYMA7AghCN5uWIfJRa6c/mobilebasic
     
     I remember people at the time saying the bans are damage control for *another* controversy, as wizards have at least one going nearly constantly. the google doc piece was mostly circling some retarded tt accounts nobody cared about

     I think the ADL has a list of "racist" numbers that covers juat about everything. Besides, the very concept of numbers is racist!
