The Unnamed Eldraine Witch?

Do you think they are building up to a twist reveal that the Kenrith Twins' mother is a pre-existing character, a witch from an earlier set in Magic's history? Like how it turns out >!Oko is Kellan's dad and Maralen's brother!< ? Or are they keeping her unnamed for when they have a cool character idea for her?

I am trying to remember a famous bluff

There was a famous competitive history moment where someone boarded out their strongest card knowing their opponent would try to remove it with a Crossout Designator type effect.

Does anyone know what I'm thinking of?

Snow Lands Imply The Existence of Other Precipitation or Particulate Matter Lands

I refuse to play Snow Lands on principle for this and I pretend they don't exist. The asymmetry bugs me. Why aren't there Rain lands?

edit: To explain further, Snow suggests a whole space of other land modifiers. Foliage-covered lands, Lava-covered lands, whatever. I don't actually care what the category would be. Snow is just clearly one of a larger category and the absence of its corresponding members stand out to me.

Reality Fracture Manufacturing Innovation?

In previews and promotions for RF, Mark Rosewater keeps mentioning that they had to devise a new manufacturing method to guarantee that both versions of a given character would appear in one pack.

  1. Why is this such a difficult problem? Rarity distribution seems like a way more complex layout issue and they solved that.

  2. What do you think this innovative new method is?

Blacking out the inside of a sleeve?

Update: My solution has been to get over it. I actually like the way the white border frames the card now. It's clean and pretty.

---

I bought some art sleeves and I love the back (1), but they are white on the inside (2). It's really icky to me. It breaks the Dimir aesthetic (3). I tried Dragon Shield inner sleeves but there is still some white peeking out at the edges (4).

I think I'm just gonna insert some black construction paper, but maybe there's a more elegant solution. Are you fussy about this like I am? Have you found an answer?
