In the article where the lands were spoiled for m15 WOTC strongly suggests two things.

1. There is a full cycle of 10 "dual" lands in khans (important for block play)
2. The lands in khans are different from the lands in M15

Is it...a cracked case or something and someone put a new Lotus in?

Am i the only one who is seeing the card types on the decklists in another language? it's not a major inconvenience but i'm not sure if this is just happening to me.

I would imagine that any reprinted lands in Khans will be something splashy, completing the cycle of painlands won't help the set sell at all.

Maybe we'll see a Future-Sighted land that hasn't been expanded into a cycle yet. A Nimbus Maze or Horizon Canopy cycle would definitely be splashy.

I'm going to guess no on horizon canopy cycle unless that cycle isn't "draw a card". UB does not need a land that cycles...nor does UW. Grove cycle actually seems viable to be honest. Allied grove cycle?

Do you mean a 'Grove of the Burnwillows'? My first thought on that was 'ugh, that'd be terrible, giving my opponents life.'

But then I thought of my Marchesa deck, how that sort of cycle would complement her strategy nicely.

Did he title the game for "post-M15" or "with M15"? That sort of thing isn't uncommon.

Well the D-bag is strong on Cockatrice. So sorry.

I cant even run the beta on my computer for more than 5 minutes. It just freezes. Now I legitimately need to get a new computer just to run a worse version of MTGO.

If I was a gamer who would eventually upgrade my computer, not a big deal. But I'm not.

After the frustration I experienced yesterday, I decided I would stop drafting on mtgo until I find they have remedied the issues.

So I downloaded duels 2015 for the iPad. It was free and I own the 2014 version complete with the expansion. At first the 2014 version ran OK but then it started crashing all the time, so I stopped playing it. Fast forward to today and I thought things may have changed.

Players were opening packs before everybody got their cards. Eventually the clerk made an announcement that we could open the packs, but there were still some teams waiting to pick theirs up.
Players and shop clerk were swearing at each other. Clerk swore at everybody when making announcements.
Our opponents team-name in the second round was a racial slur
During a third round game two players practically got in a fight when a spectator started commenting on the match and wouldn't leave - the store clerk didn't even get out of his chair or say a word. (No judge around as far as I could tell).
During the fourth round a team a table next to us offered to concede for packs. They openly discussed it for about a minute.
No game officially went to time even though multiple rounds were over an hour

While you *don't have any obligation to inform the TO first, it would have been good form to let them know that this was a little too relaxed for an official event before deciding to report them.

They should know better, but they might have felt everyone was enjoying themselves more with the even being run so relaxed. That said, if you find a way to report them, they were still asking for it.

Uh hell no?

The sort of stuff he noted shouldn't even happen. Period. He has absolutely no obligation to tell them a damn thing especially if it's so pervasive. That's a total failure on the TO's part.

In what world is a store owner/person running the event ignorant enough to allow this?

Possibly this one. I have no idea what it might mean.

Took me a minute as well. Had to say it out loud.
