I'm not pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for other drive-to-work.

Coronavirus edition. Okay, so today I'm going to be talking all about vanity naming.

So basically what vanity names are is when the name of a card or a character is named after something that's referencing something that

applies to a person who helped make the game or connected to a person who help make the game.

But it's things that are named after real world people.

Now, vanity cards are something we stopped doing many years ago.

I will get into that after I talk about the vanity cards.

I'll talk a little bit why we don't do vanity cards anymore.

But mostly what I wanted today is just sort of tell you about some vanity cards

and share some stories behind the vanity cards.

There's some fun stories that go into the vanity cards.

Most of these cards, the vast majority of them,

either were made in the first five years of magic's life,

or there are a term that got made there and they got reused later.

Because we don't...

Vanity names can get reused once they're sort of part of magic,

but we don't make any more vanity names now.

Okay, so to start my story, I'm going to go all the way back to Alpha.

So the first one I want to talk about is Mons' Goblin Raiders.

Mons is a goblin character that first shows up on that card.

I think Mons shows up.

He shows up the card that is named after, Monz
