I sure hope it is! AFR already has a bunch of dragons in it. It'd be cool to have dragon battles during the course of a game.Do you think a Magic: the Gathering and Dragonlance crossover would be possible?

I'm not a magic player either, and I didn't know either.Please tell me you are kidding...
Okay. If not, AFR is Dungeons and Dragons: Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, the crossover set for MTG and D&D.
They will do more. They just won’t be legal in the competitive format known as standard. Which will allow them to make the cards in them better.Great to hear it's successful, but i do wish they'd do more.
If it isn't a standard release, then it means "no more D&D sets for you". Nonstandard sets are the definition of premiere. High production values, Limited allocation, limited distribution, and in turn heavy premiums on what already starts at twice or thrice the base price. If it isn't a standard release, I won't be able to find it, and if I find it, I won't be able to afford it. In the remote case I can afford it, what I get to afford will be a meanigless fraction of the set. In many ways it is worse than no more D&D sets period, because that way what I already have at least is complete. With all future D&D sets being premium releases what I already have will sit increasingly incomplete.I think the term “premier set” is what’s causing the confusion. People are hearing “no more D&D premier sets” and, being fairly casual Magic players, don’t really know what the “premier” part means, so it looks like “no more D&D sets” to them.
I understand that’s the case for you, I’m saying I think the terminology is what’s causing some people to think this decision was made because WotC considered AFR a failure, when in fact it’s probably in part due to its massive success.If it isn't a standard release, then it means "no more D&D sets for you".

Yeah, not sure why they have to make things confusing. Just call it Standard or Supplemental. Simple.I think the term “premier set” is what’s causing the confusion.

They used to call them standard legal sets. They changed the term to premier because most players don’t actually play standard any more.Yeah, not sure why they have to make things confusing. Just call it Standard or Supplemental. Simple.
Most players would then be kitchen table and commander/edh?They used to call them standard legal sets. They changed the term to premier because most players don’t actually play standard any more.
Yeah, Commander is the most popular form of paper Magic these days.Most players would then be kitchen table and commander/edh?
I wouldn't surprised, but I've griped about how poorly they handled competitive formats already.
