I have heard from many sources that Wizards intentionally made the Masques block weak sets because they followed the Urza sets, which were filled with broken cards ( Tolarian Academy is just one example), and lots of other cards that were very powerful ( Greater Good, for example). However, when I look at Mercadian Masques, it doesn't seem like a bad set to me. What is everybody else's opinions on this?

I definitely think it is weaker than the Urza's blocks, but I still have found a lot of useful cards in the block. It is not garbage by any means, just not the best.

I think it was powered just right. Urza block had too many game-breaking cards, and I actually like lower-powered games.

I do think that they did that on purpose, b/c Urza's was so powerful.

Even in Masques though, there were a couple cards that got banned, like Rishadan Port.

Oh, I'm certain it was intentional. Personally, I'm fond of the set, despite the fact I know little about it.

Masques is a great set. Its got a lot of cool cards like Cho Manno, Revolutionary for example. Its kinda like a white Uncle Istvan.

... Is that a good thing, or a bad thing?
