Hey, just wanted to write up a thank you. I just got my signed copy of Rancor, which i was not expecting at all. I never actually check who gets the cards sent to them since I never expected to win, but this one in particular is really worth something to me. Hatred Outlives the Hateful really made me take a second look at a lot of the cards that I would normally pass off as booster trash. Rancor especially made me think twice about a conversation that I had just had with a friend of mine, and that one phrase "hatred outlives the hateful" helped me put into words a point I was trying to get across (we were talking politics). It really is weird how flavor text from a card game can sometimes have such an impact.
