So here http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/27a and here http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/27 they've announced the changes for the upcoming core set

Summery of Changes

Smaller Set Size - Ok
50% new Cards - Brilliant
Prerelease and Launch events - Excellent
Renamed to Magic: The Gathering 2010 (M10 for short) - Oooh dodgy don't like personaly
No longer Biannual they will come out yearly - Bad so many extra cards that some people may feel obligated to buy.
Sets rotate out of Standard in October with the set that precedes them (apart from 10th which rotates out in July) - Thats a bit neither here nor there but it does mean that there will be 2 core sets which are in standard at once which is a bit weird....
15 Mythic Rares in M10 - Sigh enough with the Mythics now please
5 of the Mythics are the Lorwyn planeswalkers now Mythic Status - Well I clearly didn't see that coming with teh previous bullet /sarcasm

So I'm not, as you can probably tell, convinced by these changes.

Thoughts?
