I think I've learned to treat Magic cards like baseball cards: keep 'em in a binder in numerical order, don't play with 'em, try to finish the set and just keep my head down.
Oh that's why the promotional love your game store wasn’t walking ballista
Anyway if the price is not obnoxious for this one I might get it
It's 39.99$, the best secret lair revealed today by far, I will get this one
Not bad the arcbound and ballista makes up the cost (remember arcbound price got butchered due to the affinity deck being killed by the mox opal banning)
Yeah, more options are always just so frustrating. I hate it when companies make things I totally don’t have to buy.
the fear of missing out mentality is strong here. their business model this year exploits the hell out of that. i might not buy it, you might not buy it, but a ****ton of other people might buy it because otherwise poof its gone. is that the culture we want around the game? if it works here, how many other products can it work with? then there's just the general feeling of being overwhelmed and fatigued through product bombardment. the idea that you're missing out is very real, and very legitimate, even if its products you wouldn't normally get.
Is that a hunch you have, or do you have some hard data to support the notion that the majority of SL sales are due to FOMO? My own personal hunch is that most people buy one or two of these, at most, because the specific cards or the art really clicks with them, and everyone else passes. It’s pretty hard to get fatigued by things we’re not actually buying.

The last two should come with black stickers you can place over the "artwork". DIAMOND HARD PASS PASS PASS.

That Arcbound Ravager art is the first time in a while I went "ooph". The other pieces of art are good in their own ways. Kind of wish Walking Ballista had a Zoids reference (with the raptor mech throwing rockets out everywhere) instead of normal mech reference, but what can you do. I will say that Darksteel Colossus is the only art that makes sense for the card.
This has value, but I am going to skip this once again, like I will most likely always skip these.

To be honest zoids is the reason I'm interested in this one I was watching a few episodes as a kid
But I would get these by singles online/lgs just like I did with the kaldescope killers since these will go Lower than 40 dollars

Woah... never knew Zoids was a TV show. I think I still have the original 5 (bird, elephant, t-rex, spider, and frog) in a box somewhere.

were these supposed to be crossover arts again? i'm tired of that gimmick already.
product fatigue is extremely real now. so i don't have any energy left to care at all and certainly won't be spending money on these.
edit: these look like left over art for something transformers related. that's lazy.

This doesn't even remotely look like Transformers. I see Warhammer 40,000 more than anything else.

Might consider it because it fits my art style

Actualy, is that structure on the left some kind of launch tower like in Neon Genesis Evangelion?
Now that you say it... Kind of looks similar.
Hands to the sky

The last card is unquestionably Transformers influenced, it's one of Bad Flip Productions (aka Ken Christiansen) apparently does quite a bit of.
Pretty sure the last one is a tf artist... looks quite alex milne either way.

Mainly because Hasbro and they did that Grimlock card.
I was hoping for baby alive....Oh no... I just learned Hasbro bought Death Row Records in 2019.... now I want to see that...
Call me when they do Secret Lair: Slivers.
Its pathetic ...
And people spending crazy money on these are even worse.
