Cultural Interpretations

New 23 Jan 2024 Asked by edvaldofelixleal 31 Comments

Hi Mark! I saw that many didn't understand my post in relation to mermaids, mainly. But here in Brazil, a mermaid is one thing and a merman woman is another. We don't consider that Kiora is a mermaid, just as Ariel is not a merman. It would be like confusing mice with rats... In our mythology, we have Iaras, who are mermaids of rivers and lakes. It would be sacrilegious to say that she is a merfolk and not a mermaid...


Help educate me. We have numerous female merfolk with fish tails. How is that not a “mermaid” by your definition?

Soap Box Card Storage

New 25 Nov 2023 Asked by edvaldofelixleal 79 Comments

Hi, Mark! Here in Brazil we have a brand of soap that has a box the exact size to store Magic cards and still leaves them smelling like flowers. Awesome!


Cool. Thanks for sharing. : )

Working with LRR and Full Art Lands

New 30 Nov 2021 Asked by gabrielu4 33 Comments

Hi mark, loved the unfinity little preview, 2 questions, 1-How was work with the lrr guys? i really like then. 2-Wait, if not every booster will have a full art land, the 28% will be a "normal" land card ? thx and hugs from Brazil.


1. I had a blast working with all the flavor text writers.2. Every draft booster has a land slot that gets a full-art land, either a planetary space-ic land, an orbital space-ic land or a borderless shock land. The collector boosters have two lands slots, one in normal foil and one in galaxy foil.

Goat Attack Inspiration

New 24 Jan 2020 Asked by petruscaex 142 Comments

If you'd like I may send you a video where a goat attack several people and a motorcycle here in Brazil. I believe that after watching it you'll feel like making 2/1 Red Goat tokens with haste


“Mark, why is your email filled with goat attack videos? What did you do, Mark?”

Churrasco Banana Scale

New 09 Jun 2019 Asked by gabecampos89 25 Comments

Hey Mark, where does brazilian style barbecue, churrasco, stand on the Banana Scale?


Is that the thing with the red/green “meat dial”. If so, I had it once when I was in Rio and it was delicious.

Brazil Community Engagement

New 27 Mar 2019 Asked by kaervekoimpiedoso 42 Comments

mark, a Brazilian community is very attached to other aspects of the MTG as the development part and I believe this can be felt by the number of participants in the panels in the last GP here. Do not you think about returning to our country with one of these panels?


I don’t travel a lot these days, but once my kids are off at college, I plan to do more traveling to events (with my wife).

Rating Churrasco

New 15 Mar 2019 Asked by gabecampos89 27 Comments

Hey Mark, you've mentioned on your article that Rio de Janeiro was your favorite south samerican trip. I wonder, where is Churrasco (Brazilian Barbecue) on the Banana Scale?


If that’s the meal with the meat dial, I very much enjoyed it.

Gatewatch in Next Set?

New 19 Jan 2019 Asked by opesodomundo 83 Comments

Is there any chance to get the Gatewatch planeswalkers in the next set? Like Chandra, Ajani, Nissa and so on... AFAIK Nicol Bolas has pretty much all the power right now and it will be really cool to see a huge fight and Bolas' defeat on the next set. (sorry for my english, i'm brazilian lol)


You want some kind of war? : )

Magic Media Reference

New 22 May 2018 Asked by svstrauser 26 Comments

Regarding Magic in the media, it looks like there is someone in the Brazilian Youtube channel Porta dos Fundos who really likes Magic, because here is another reference: in one of their videos, called Meia (Half), at the end of the video (1:36, to be precise), someone gives an Island to the cinema cashier, in order to pay half to see the movie (a regular practice for students in Brazil). =)


: )

Magic Humor Recognition

New 22 May 2018 Asked by trifas 46 Comments

Magic pop culture reference: a brazilian humor channel called "Porta dos Fundos" had a scene where a fortune-teller is making predictions while displaying cards on a table. The client gets surprised that she sees so much in the cards, to what the fortune-teller says that she saw it on Facebook, the cards are just her Magic deck! The episode is called "VAZANDO"


Thanks.

Flavor Text Puns

New 24 Jul 2016 Asked by apocalypticfluffy 63 Comments

You say you aren't allowed for puns in flavor texts. Are the translators allowed? Because there are some cards (take the Brazilian version of the new Sigarda "Sigarda, Graça das Garças") that if are not intended puns I don't even know what are.


Puns are allowed, just not at the rate I would do them if I was in charge of flavor text. : ) #WotCStaff
