I've opened four boxes of english Kaldheim set boosters and all cards had a black core. They were printed in Japan.
Cards from a regular booster box and a bundle i opened had normal blue core.
Did wizards make a statement concerning that issue?
I realized something important regarding the reserved list:
For those who own expensive cards on the list actually playing with those cards has become more and more unrealistic. Either the cards are graded and thus unplayable in those hard cases or you have to get them out of safe storage.
Even when you have them available and playable at any time, you might not want to take them out to play with in fear of cards getting stolen or damaged.
So even for those already possessing power, those cards getting affordable reprints might actually be a boon regarding the game.
As we know from cards like Alpha/Beta/Unlimited Birds of Paradise even with 10+ reprints they retain their value because they are original cards. As long as reprints are distinguishable from the original printing there shouldn't be a problem.
Draftable in a unique way: M15-Huey-Huey, M15-Dewey-Dewey and finally M15-Louie-Louie, thus ensuring each set, including M15 gets its time in the sun 😋
Might be that M15 is the large set in the block, then followed by three small sets. what was M15's nickname anyway?
With this unique block structure they would make sure M15 stays in circulation for the whole year and gets drafted a hell of a lot more!

- Strictly worse Promos for FNM
+ Plus Point for Rebecca Guay Basic Lands and Promos from Future Sets!
