legendofa on Why Are Digital Cards Taking …

To address a rhetorical-looking question, I assume the play design groups know exactly what designs are being hindered by the digital side, and put some effort into addressing any problems.

A common complaint about the game at this point is that too many new abilities are being introduced, so pruning out a few rarely-used ability helps mitigate that. I personally like the multiblocking ability, and Guardian of the Gateless was a key card in one of my decks a while back. Still, it's never had a huge impact on the game as a whole, and it has some funky interactions with more common abilities.

Also, Horizons products and casual stuff like Mystery Booster have been used as a testing ground and teaser for new mechanics--see Recycla-bird for Ikoria's ability tokens and Graveyard Dig for Crimson Vow's cleave. So if something is a fun and interesting ability, but would cause digital problems for whatever reason, it can find a home in one way or another.

Still, after saying all that, I do think that physical and digital should complement each other, not be beholden to each other. Alchemy provides Arena a way to use abilities that would be too hard to implement in paper, and paper should be able to accommodate abilities that don't work in digital.

Cryptic Spires. Can you change the colors you choose, or is it permanent? I mean, it's not a great card by itself, but it's still another Pauper dual land.

Also, if it's intended to be permanent, I believe that means Inspirational Antelope joins the ranks of Recycla-bird and Graveyard Dig as "fake" effects that may have been more real than anyone thought. Louvaq, the Aberrant didn't quite make it.

Graveyard Dig directly influenced cleave.

A new mechanic that removes something never removed before

I believe emblems are safe.
