Wary Okapi

Text Space Balance

New 18 Jan 2019 Asked by grey-oppenheimer 41 Comments

Mark, why don't french vanilla creatures from non-Core sets have reminder text (e.g. Wary Okapi)? Especially at common? I know expert level sets are targeted at experienced players, but I still think commons from those sets can be extremely helpful in educating new players.


Everything is a balance. We’ve opted to spend that space on flavor text to help build the world, the characters and the story.

Giraffes in Magic

Since somebody mentioned Wary Okapi, I just looked, and there are actually no giraffes as a creature in Magic! Do you think that'll change one day?


I don’t know.

Wary Okapi Classification

Hi Mark! I just saw the spoiler for the new card called Wary Okapi. I'm sorry to inform you, but the creature type is erroneous - okapis are not antelopes, they're actually closely related to giraffes.


Interesting.
