Our third set of the year is a return to a fan-favorite plane under siege. Kamigawa: Titanbreach releases June 4th! #MTGKamigawa youtu.be/cC6ebvZg-_Q
Aaron - Thorgi's Arcade27LET'S GOOOOO! My favorite Plane (Ikoria) and my wife's favorite Plane (Kamigawa), in the same set, fighting each other! Oh I am stupid excited for this one

Arya (hogpog_98 elsewhere)23I'm so excited for this set to release! Probably the single set I've spent most time on, I was on the team for almost all of both vision design and set design. It was also my second ever limited lead, and one of my favorite sets of all time. I can't wait for y'all to see it.

R3yhanSaka2This has kinda got me but if they do any human mutation I will be disappointed...slightly.
felt2man its crazy what happens when magic gets to be magic, even if it is two planes colliding
I was the lead Vision Designer for Kamigawa: Titanbreach. I hope you’re all ready for a huge set! #MTGKamigawa #wotcstaff
Henn, known robot kisser4From all robot lovers: thank you 🛐
Dark Pact, Guest Lecturer4Chris, you can't keep making my favorite things in Magic. Jk. Please continue. 🙇🏾♂️
The Commander Tavern 🇵🇷2Fam, I am *NOT* ready. I could never *BE* ready. All I can do is just brace for impact when it releases and pray for the best. I will be outlandishly feral about this set. You have no idea.
Fear of Melissing Out2IT'S SO FUCKING COOL CHRIS. YOUR VISION
Benjamin Easter, Free Palestine2Wow I am getting a lot of kaiju art direction vibes from another WoTC TCG that just celebrated 25 years 👀👀 What’s the verb for Kaiju’s fighting again? Kaijudo was it?
Cahzin2Hey Chris, when I saw you were the lead that got my hype even higher! Super excited for that 🫰🏼🫰🏼
the (early, general) enthusiasm about kamigawa titanbreach fuels my suspicion that "hat set" is more a cliche people like to repeat than a useful aesthetic judgment. ppl SAY that it's the problem with MKM/OTJ/DFT, but clearly the promise of doing a genre can be really exciting for lots of people
Dominarian Plowshare20the "hat set" accusation tries to ascribe badness to a structural cause: "MKM was always going to be bad bc all it was doing was hitting genre beats." but in reality, maybe execution is often the problem! maybe bad set is bad because its constituent parts are bad
gpwaltz5I've always thought a core appeal of Magic is that it's this vast library of pop culture and sci-fi/fantasy genre, expressed as art and game mechanics. A certain hatti-ness is baked in to why we love Magic. Hat Set problem emerges when the signifiers feel like a tacked-on layer.
Wobbles3To be fair, this is more of a mask than a hat. The problem with hat sets is literally the hats
MattMT2People always think their hat is cool. This is why Fedora.
Morgan Jane → STL³ Oct 24-251This hat was perfectly sculpted for MY head in particular!! Also MKM's story ripped, OTJ had incredible limited, and DFT is one of the most represented sets in my favorite cube
Tom Kilian1I think this is onto something, but at the same time the pitch “Kamigawa: Mechs vs Kaiju” does about as much for me personally as “Murder Mystery boardgame set”.
Jay Annelli27Say it louder for those in the back
Ryan Overturf7“Hat set” is always a term that alerts me to tune out whatever noise is being broadcast.
Bassim El-Wakil3Resonance, pushed too far, turns derivative. That’s all “hat set” ever meant as a derogatory; it’s being derivative. “It’s just Chandra in a hat”. I always saw it as a comment on execution, not concept, because people had been asking for years for a Western set (or what-have-you).
Samwise Spamgee2Honestly almost every set in magic is a hat set. People give it a bad name because they didn't like that stuff became extra tropey. I've liked all the "hat sets" even otj! As a western disliker I was not here for it, but I think they are fun. Main magic sets are so cool, even when a bit tropey
Happy to say that in-universe Magic still absolutely has the sauce. This is the good stuff Nauctis looks pretty interesting Kamigawa Titanbreach looks like my kind of stuff ZHALFIR ALREADY LOOKS INCREDIBLE Excited for in-universe Magic next year, hell yeah
Duke Vulture - Goblin Stinker1Titanbreach got me BRICKED UP
Graeme1it looks so good! and I'm so glad they didn't announce the UB stuff for the calendar. Nauctis looks so sick. so many new blorbos.
aThirdOfKansas1EVERY ONE OF THESE SETS LOOK INSANE!! With Nauctis being an awesome looking new setting, to some fun tropey Mech-Kaiju battles in Kamigawa, and the cherry on top of a full look at Zhalfir with some AMAAAZING looking art direction.
Everyone's saying Pacific Rim when it comes to Kamigawa: Titanbreach, but I for one am hoping for the Neon Genesis Evangelion crossover potential myself.
Paige, TheMaverickGirl6The more I think about this, the more it irks me that people keep calling it the Pacific Rim set instead of, ya know, all the other Japanese properties that Pacific Rim was paying homage to. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if we saw some Power Rangers secret lairs to go alongside it.
Niv Mizzet's Right Hand Squirrel5Yesssssss Evangelion SLD would BREAK ME.
