Tim,

Great points, normally when discussing links relating to specific Magic events I include the clickable links, and I decided that NOT including specific links would hopefully get interested readers Googl’ing and exploring for themselves.

In retrospect, I should have pointed this out in the article and provided a few images to give visual representations of the concepts I was discussing. Glad you liked it and I will definitely take this feedback into account if I revisit this in the future!

Ha, I was mostly just trying to find a card associated with Sam Black. All the Gravecrawler images were blurry… Seems like a card they could easily print in Standard, though, and the design is clean.

I second both of these points: I thought the article was compelling, but I had to do a bit of Googling to get up to speed on the background.

I also wanted to add that I approved of your choice of Carrion Feeder for an embedded card – I’d love to see it return to Modern, and Eldritch Moon is about as good of a thematic opportunity as it gets for that to happen.

Thanks for the feedback. We’ll be sure to include more background information in any future articles mentioning architecture. I’ll admit I was a little green on that front as well.

I’m already a huge fan of your stream and articles, and this just made me enjoy them more. Drawing a parallel between your passion and another passion worked beautifully in this article, and I loved every word of it. A+

Still trying to wrap my head around it. Perhaps in the future, you could include more hyperlinks that could send the reader to a site where they could read about who Frank Gehry is (I have no clue who he is), or a Bjarke Ingels biography.

I would’ve liked just more information to help me understand what comparisons you are trying to make. I know you can google this type of stuff, but the average reader would probably be better off with more links included in the article. I did like this article however.
