I'm Palaura driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for their drive to work.

Okay, so today I'm going to talk about the challenges of designing for an eternal world.

So let me first explain what that means and then I'll talk about it. So for a long time,

the center of magic was standard and the focus of making magic was about designing

for that environment that was sort of a two-year environment.

But with the popularity of Commander and other factors,

we are designing much more for larger formats.

Commander, modern, you know, that more people are playing with a lot more of the

cards.

And so there are some challenges with that.

So a couple of caveats I want to start with today.

One is, I think magic by its nature shifts where the audience wants it to be. So when I'm talking about

this today, I'm not saying it shouldn't be here. This is what the audience wants. This is what we're

providing. And if you ever listen to me on my podcast or whatever, you know that I like to say

restrictions free creativity, right? That I do feel having things you are pushing to do, there's a lot of good that comes from

trying to figure out and solve problems.

So I want to first, before I get into my challenges, say the fact that there are challenges

are not inherently a bad thing.

I just want to sort of talk through what are the challenges right now?

Because we have some challenges that we have not had for a long time or have never had in some cases.

And so today's podcast is trying to explain some of the challenges of modern design right now,

designing for magic in the current year.
