Oh didn't know about that card actually, I'll definitely have to see if I can fit it into one of my decks.

Sidenote: cool that we have mtgcardfetcher on here, definitely makes discussions about cards easier

Not until the definition of the word “of” changes.

Well that's what's happening here isn't it. It's a word that is potentially gaining an additional use as a result of reanalysis. Whether it sticks around long term remains to be seen, but language is defined by usage and it's foolish to pretend there's such a thing as objectively correct. Already the use of the verb 'to have' to form the perfect in this case is quite different from it's other meanings related to 'to possess'. And that's not even getting into you describing nonstandard usage as the result of 'mush-mouthed laziness' which is a whole nother can of worms.

To be honest I haven't played either

Honestly I kind of like the long matches, but it definitely negatively affects how often I play. For Dota especially it feels like if I'm going to queue I have to be prepared for an hour long game, and while I don't necessarily have a problem with that, I'm not always feeling it.
