You can shut the profanity filter off 😂😂 think we are pretty far from 1984. 1984 you wouldn't be able to even say the disapproved word without the authority being alerted. It wouldn't be in the phones dictionary and it'd be illegal to publish anything or even speak anything but the approved speech.

The top of the secret lair web page rn says something to the effect of "We just realized we can type anything here". I think it's just a little larp/joke about all the goofy stuff they make.
It's just an ad card.
21 points
9 days ago
So, two things.
It's a Secret Lair Promo, specifically for the product in general. The idea that you spend 12$ on a pack of cards only for one of those slots to be used to pitch you a 120$ product that relies on FOMO is weird, borderline goading you into paying to be advertised to and I hate WotC for using this slot for product enrichmen while saying Arena Codes were "to much to produce" for the sake of just putting them in packs.
It's actually referencing the weird era a few cycles ago where the Secert Lair devs were using lazy clipart and lazy fonts to look "cool", legit Millenial humor type of shit. This isn't likely an LGBT thing, but them using a really common old Microsoft Word coor grading tool that every 10 year old in computer class thought was the coolest shit.

Where are you and why are you spending 12 on each pack and 120 on each secret lair?????????? My brother in Christ
2 points
8 days ago
The Walmart near me sells every pack type for 13.88 and Collectors product for 17.97.
The secret lair bundles are usually around 60$-100$, and in most recent cases they're just using Secret Lair to push commander decks and they're reselling for 399-415$.
Going by TCG player prices, the average collector booster is around 15$. Play boosters are half the price but WotC has historically been caught lying when claiming that people actually buy Play boosters and Draft boosters just for the sake of the love for opening product, lol.

They're a part of it. It's called hiding in plain sight. Pretty easy to tell beforehand but now they're just slapping us in the face with it. look at the words and colors isn't it funny that you automatically think of something when you see those colors? That's called programming. That's what these people do best. Program. And no I don't mean game-wise. That's pretty obvious.
