MTG publisher acknowledges Spider-Man backlash with controversial survey

The publisher of the popular trading card game Magic: The Gathering has acknowledged the backlash surrounding the recent Marvel's Spider-Man set. The company has released a survey asking players to rate various aspects of the set, including the overall impression, card quality, and representation. However, some of the survey questions have raised concerns among fans for their potentially biased or leading nature. Specifically, there are questions that ask players to rate the set's "wokeness" and "political correctness," which some view as an attempt to downplay legitimate criticism of the set's design and content. The survey has sparked a wider discussion within the Magic: The Gathering community about the publisher's approach to player feedback and the need for more balanced and inclusive decision-making processes. While the company's acknowledgment of the backlash is a positive step, the survey's controversial elements have raised questions about the publisher's commitment to addressing the concerns of its diverse player base.
