Sorry for that godawful image. But it was easy to do on my phone, and i had some inspiration to post something.
Call me a party pooper or a gatekeeper, but as an MTG player and Star Trek enjoyer, I really dislike the Star Trek MTG set.
These two worlds just don't vibe together, the artwork is weird to ugly in many cases and overall it just doesn't feel right to me.
Also I don't like how Universes Beyond has been taking over MTG lately. It was nice when it was an extra commander edition or two per year, but now every other main release is UB and the MTG multiverse has taken a backseat. Plus it doesn't accomplish what it was et out to do, draw fans of other franchises to MTG. While it is true that many non-MTG fans buy something from these sets, they mostly don't stay for other MTG stuff. The people coming to prerelease events are never seen again to play or buy at the LGS.
While I agree with you in principle, in all fairness, that ship has sailed years ago.
If I could make it so ~~Marjorie Taylor Greene~~ Magic The Gathering never stepped outside Tolkien-esque fantasy, I would do it in a heartbeat; but they added tons of all manner of bizarre out-of-theme stuff over the years, so this addition doesn't sting much.

mtg has been powercrept into hell, and all those crossovers are just moneygrabbing slob
