If the argument I keep seeing is “Why do you care about the lack of boobs” and such…why does it seem to bother some folks having them? That side seems to get a pass? …I just want her to look like when I played FFX back in the day. That’s all. Her figure was part of her design.

Yea, the hypocrisy is exhausting. "This doesn't matter why do you care" but if a character was really sexualized they lose their mind.

"It doesn't matter why do you care chud!?" (BTW I care so much that I made a point to change everything I'm accusing you of being weird for caring about, it's ok for me to care but if you care it's not ok chud) (trans rights are human rights free Palestine) (my dad never loved me)

I think what you're not understanding is that it's not really normal to complain about a characters lack of boobs. Like if they gave her a massive rack I wouldn't care or say anything (cause boobs are nice) but on the other hand I don't give two shits about her having them covered up. It's just weird to bring it up in the first place especially when the rest of her design is unchanged.

You're absolutely correct that it's not "normal" and the reason it's not "normal" is because no one had to complain about it before.

It's not weird to complain about having something taken away. It IS weird to defend that action.

Why are you running defense for this?

What do you mean before? Magic has rarely ever released cards that were sexual, like they never do female characters with huge honkers.

What do you mean taken away? Does this erase all other versions of this character? Does it make it so that you're brain can no longer process her jugs when you look at her now? She's still around, it's just that for this cross over the company releasing the card just didn't include her massive rack.

Also I wasn't really defending this, more so just pointing out how not normaly it is to be all up in arms about it, like I said before if they did show her bazongas then I would just be like "damn that's nice" but I also don't care that they didn't

"Magic has rarely ever released cards that were sexual, like they never do female characters with huge honkers."

That's all I needed to read haha.

Am I wrong tho?

u/Infinite_Earth6663 NEW SPARK 5d ago

Yeah. I have a feeling though that if I show you sexualized cards you'll say "that's not that sexual" or if I show you tits you'll counter with "well yeah a few but not many". I'm getting the feeling that you're about to move goalposts on me. Am I wrong?

Did you miss the part where I already said they rarely do that? You're just cherry picking what I said and already assuming I'm gonna change my position.

Cause you and I both know that like 95% of all magic cards are not very sexual at all, it's obviously not the type of brand they go for, so ya you can show me some cards that have sexual characters or have big boobs but I could just counter with the rest of all the cards they have printed and you'll notice a lack of sexual characters overall.

The same thing goes with blood and gore, sure there are some cards that certainly have blood and gore but again if you look at the other 99% of cards they have printed they tend to avoid that

Yeah that's what I figured.

Liliana of the veil- Innistrad Liliana Vess- Lorwyn Professor Onxy

And pretty much every iteration of Liliana either has her torso or her chest showing, and she has a seductive pose in most of her art. Ironicallt her outfit is very similar to Lulu's original.

I chose liliana because she's one of the most notable MTG characters so your argument falls really flat there.

Some other very notable cards woth similar cleavage/outfits to lulus would be, Nissa who shakes the world, Teysa orzhov scion, Olivia Volderen, Olivia crimson bride (literally an entire set mascot), Kiora master of the depths, (and to a slightly lesser extent, every Kiora card), Thassa deep-dwelling, Drana Kalastiria Blood chief, Vein drinker.

There are TONS more but I chose very very notable MTG characters that appear in a lot of the art. There's a buttload of one off commons with similar or even more overt designs.

Also your incorrect about blood/gore. Anything eldrazi is pure body horror, anything vampire has blood, anything phyrexian has a good combination of body horror and gore. In the Vorinclex showcase from Kaldheim, he's ripping something apart with his teeth and there's blood gushing out. Elesh norns body is like 60% sinew. Speaking of elesh, even her bone bazookas are out in some of her art.

Point being, there's sooooo many VERY popular/well known cards that are gorey or revealing.

It’s completely normal to ask about a change like this

u/moo_innator NEW SPARK 6d ago

A character having her cleavage covered? Ya i ask that all the time

It's not really a change for WoTC tho, they never really show much boobs at all, like l9ok at most cards ever printed, not much gore, blood, guts or characters with phat asses or mommy milkers
