Design Simplicity

New • 03 Sep 2013 • Asked by acl7373 • 30 Comments

Is any thought given to simplicity of organization when designing cards? Everyone would've gotten the point on Hundred Handed One if it could block any number of creatures and then it shows up in a search alongside Avatar of Hope, Guardian of the Gateless, Thoughtweft Trio, etc.

One of the important things about the art of card design is understanding the difference between the impact of “block any amount” and “block 99 additional”.
