Lmaooo Hearthstone not getting a reference is somehow hilarious to me

[PremPnamNam]

Even WOTC remember Legends of Runeterra more than Riot does 💀

[kylecabrera]

As an old school duel masters /kaijudo player seeing bolshack dragon is hilarious

[dannybeane]

I feel like Snap Judgement is also a subtle nod to Yu-gi-oh's Victory Dragon (and its various other versions) literally telling you how to avoid the effect as people (might have) done it.

[thatonefirekestral]

Including ebon praetor on who's that praetor is a stroke of genius

[dely]

It would be super fun to see an Universes beyond of Yugioh or pokemon, seeing Yugi and Kaiba as planeswalkers XD

[MidoriNatsume]

Aww, they are so charming.
Fuck IP rivalries, I want more of this cute references.

[azelia]

Omg that Bolshack Dragon is amazing I need it xD I love Duel Masters ❤

[teamcyeborg]

Abbot of the Sacred Meeple is definitely a reference to other games, though mostly board games rather than card games

[billlong]

As someone who actually liked duel masters I want the bolshack dragon test card.

[StigmaKRL]

After so many years of DueMa importing cards (Black Lotus, Jace, Serra'a Angel etc.) from mtg, its finally time for MTG do the same thing back

[JokingThief]

Snap Judgement also seems like a dig at Yu-Gi-Oh's Victory Dragon, with the same effect and rulings quirk of concession being a Quick Effect without recourse.

[Boiyu]

Slivdrazi monstrosity is a reference to Jurassic park
Because they didn’t think about if they should do something

[SquareViking]

I did not. Because I couldn't attend one of the events where they sold this, so thank you for a bite-sized look into the set!

[justfrankjustdank]

dairy cow is a reference to a youtube video (sponsored by mtg), the super long turn skit by prozd

[dylanwaites]

Duel Masters was my absolute favorite game growing up, so I'd be stoked if that playtest Bolshack Dragon actually made it into official print

[SweetlySilverSylvie]

As a person from the duel masters to mtg pipeline I absolutely love Bolshack Dragon, absolute perfection 👌

[roxascloud]

Omg i want heart of a duelist so bad now

[bentruett]

Fun fact that duel masters has printed a kegit bkack lotus

[stephenlong]

I love how Duel Masters has crossed over several times over the years. They also got their own Black Lotus, as well as a Nicol Bolas, I believe.
