I hate to sound nitpicky, and I have nothing against Samut or Basri as characters, but I'm quite disappointed that both planeswalkers from Amonkhet are human. Especially since it's been shown that Amonkhet is perhaps one of the few planes where all the races there work together and are on equal footing.

Diversity in characters, especially planeswalkers, is very important to us. While I agree we could have more nonhuman planeswalkers, I don’t believe it should be done at the sake of having less planeswalkers of color.

[hebiweiss]

Now that's something I would never expect to agree. I'm always on the pro nonhuman side, specifically more reptilian characters, but I know that representing people of color is more important than represent people like me, who would prefer to not be human

Hi Mark. With the focus on tribes for Jumpstart and hopefully in Ikoria, what are our chances to finally get a wolf/werewolf commander? Maybe Commander Legends? Thanks

When we said the trope space for Ikoria was monster movies, we meant a different type of monster. : )

[hebiweiss]

That's it, giant monsters my brothers and sisters

[markrosewater]

For Ikoria, please let there be a Godzilla-like kaju in the set for all us monster fans out there. Thanks :)

Before previews begin, I’m curious what are you all are hoping is in Ikoria?

[hebiweiss]

From name and key art: Kaiju-like giant monsters, mainly a butterfly/moth and a dinosaur A Monster Hunter feeling of little humanoids surviving on a monsters world Kiora (come on, it's a the lair of BEHEMOTHS, it's perfect for the most Tammy pw out there)

What is Red's iconic rodent?

There isn’t a cycle of iconic rodents.

[hebiweiss]

Capybara should be a iconic rodent

[markrosewater]

Commander has color restrictions, and you know that restrictions breed creativity. Can I request that you swing the pendulum away from the Morophon, Golos, Kenrith, Jodah, Najeela, Sisay, and Tazri -styled 5 color commanders? It was nice to have some of these but I think we are getting too many and it is making Commander too '5 color Good Stuff'.

Okay, Commander players, I’m curious to hear your thoughts on five color identity commanders. More, less, changed in some way? What would you like?

[hebiweiss]

Less frequently. We get 3 of those on the last year

[markrosewater]

Can we get more happy/smiling/cheerful/cute Legendary Creature like Gallia of the Endless Dance?

Do you all want more?

[hebiweiss]

Yes, please! I fall in love with this card and I think we could see more like it

[markrosewater]

Hello Mark, the day has finally come for my (belated) birthday trivia: can you please give me a trivia about my favorite plane, Innistrad?

Innistrad was originally going to be a sole large set coming out when Avacyn Restored came out. It got moved to the fall to coincide with Halloween season and ended up getting fleshed out to a whole block.

Happy Birthday!

[hebiweiss]

Thank you! I've been waiting for this for months :)

[markrosewater]

Does Ikoria lean more Frankenstein or Godzilla?

Which would you all prefer?

a) Frankstein

b) Godzilla

c) A mix of the two

[hebiweiss]

C! You're letting a Lich dreams...

[markrosewater]

Since the possibility of rodent tokens in every color has come up, I have to say that I think blue's token should absolutely be beavers. Not only are they semi-aquatic, beavers are well known to change their environment by constructing dams and lodges. They are one of the few animals known to artificially shape their environments to their needs. The behavior of beavers align with blue's philosophy.

There seems to be a lot of support for beavers.

[hebiweiss]

I'm totally on capybara side

[markrosewater]

Can I request more crossing of streams between dungeons and dragons and magic?

What would you like to see?

[hebiweiss]

Legendary. Beholder/Eye. Volos.

[markrosewater]

Have we seen the last of the dog people? Lets go back to Tarkir for more dog tribal.

Do you all want more dog people?

[hebiweiss]

No. I want rat people

[markrosewater]

If/when Magic does a Norse plane, would the gods be based more on the mythological depictions of Thor/Loki/etc. or their modern versions in pop culture?

What would you all prefer?

[hebiweiss]

Mythology please! Marvel already mess up the whole thing for general people

[markrosewater]

Do you have any data on what's the non-humanoid species people want the most as a planeswalker?

A fine question. What creatures would you like to see as planeswalkers?

[hebiweiss]

NEZUMI/RAT-FOLK and Viashino

[markrosewater]

Mark, can you let Creative know that the current ratio of planeswalkers introduced on their home plane vs planeswalkers introduced on a different plane is widely disliked considering how disproportionate it is?

Let’s test this bold statement.

When we first introduce a Planeswalker, do you prefer meeting them

a) on their home plane

b) off their home plane

or

c) a healthy mix?

Please answer a), b), or c) and why,

[hebiweiss]

I choose C). Both are interesting in different aspects. Let me use the two pw introduced in Ixalan as a example. Huatli is clearly part of this world, she represents well her plane and I really like it while Angrath is completely alien element to Ixalan (besides the fact that he's a pirate) and let me curious to know about his home plane, his past before Ixalan and his family mentioned on the lore. They both together makes a perfect mix and show us how diverse are the multiverse and planeswalkers

[markrosewater]

For a Christmas theme/game how about Question Marks state what they want to see in Magic in the next year/two? (No Card Designs Obviously)

What are people hoping for in 2020? (And yes, no new card/mechanic designs, please).

[hebiweiss]

Rats tribal support, big flying creatures, more looting/rummaging in instants and more reanimations

[markrosewater]

And another one.

Chameleon Chap

At the beginning of the game, choose a color. CARDNAME is every color except the color chosen at the beginning of the game. (This ability applies to all zones.)

Color identity?

[hebiweiss]

Monoblue before the game starts. Four colors after the game starts.
