Do the denizens of a particular plane know what the plane is called? i.e. Would a citizen of Duskmourn say “boy I sure do hate living here on Duskmorn!”

Some do.

I'd question the "no flavor difference btwn tokens and cards". To me, most tokens feel like extras in a movie. Some citizens, some goblins, some zombies, even a sea monster. There are exceptions like legendary/named tokens of course (often sidekicks), but in general tokens feel a bit more "generic" than cards. P.s.: I love tokens, this is not an attack on them - just vibes.

I’ve had this conversation with the creative team many times. If a Bear and a token Bear are both in front of you, there’s no way to tell them apart with the naked eye. It’s just two Bears.

When you're planning a typal theme for a set, why do you sometimes choose types that are unlikely to see many future cards much less support (Citizens, Detectives) as opposed to more generic ones (Dinosaurs, Faeries)?

It’s a better fit for the set. We do plenty of generic ones.

So batman is not blue? He is the world's greatest detective and often uses intelligence and science. He is red because he is driven by the emotions of grief and he is a viglante. He uses black as a tool and one could argue his very selfish and is only batman to satisfy his own trauma. How is batman white?

Batman is in order white/blue/black.White because his entire reason for becoming Batman was to make a world where what befell him and his parents would never happen to another citizen of Gotham. He’s trying to provide order to stop the rampant spread of criminality in the city. His ultimate goal, like white, is to create peace.

If or when: Legendary Citizen?

I assume when.

Hey Mark I lately revisted some decks I planned in the past looking at the old Ravnica Legends that grant one effect for color A and one for color B.
And looking at Lyzolda I realized there are hardly any rakdos colored tokens that reappear. Spirits, Faeries, Elves and Birds occasionally appear in two colors and sometimes not. And then there are tokens like Citizens who are always multicolor.I understand e.g. Rats in Eldrain feel better as mono black but why are multicolored tokens so rare. I really liked the two colored tokens of Strixhaven (Savra loves those little pests).Question: What metrics do you use to decide when a token should be multicolored and when to make them mono colored?

Our rule is that tokens are monocolor by default. We will make them multicolored if it is either relevant mechanically or has a strong creative reason.

Hey Mark, I noticed that there are two non-phyrexian creatures that have the “Praetor” subtype: “Ebon Praetor” and “Sanguine Praetor” (both of which have the supertype “Avatar”). Could you please explain why these exist, as I was under the impression that “Praetor” is a Phyrexian-exclusive subtype?To me it feels very out-of-place… sort of like seeing a “Creature — Eldrazi Citizen”…!

Praetor is an English word. It’s not exclusive to Phyrexians.

does tittles count for vorthos? is the raven man a Lim dul card for example? and reincarnations?and more importantly if I play lazav does vorthos see every ravnica citizen as him? or only Chandra in particular?

You’re naming a character, so if they have multiple names, they all count. (SPOILER) Naming Lim Dul does get you The Raven Man.Lazav only counts as someone else if it’s a story point on the card where he was imitating them. You can’t just pick any character and go, “it might be Lazav, who knows?”

Will gather the townsfolk ever get errata to make citizens?

If they ever get errata it would be to make them Townsfolk.

Does New Capena have a lowe than usual amount of tribal support?

There are five cards that mechanically care about Citizens. That’s about roughly average for a set without creature type themes as a larger component. Those sets usually have one creature type they care about.
