There are about 800 pages linking to this page. That's why I started a discussion --Hunter (talk) 20:51, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

I would have thought it better to have this page be Dominaria (Expansion) or Dominaria (Set), and leave the Dominaria article as the article about the plane, simply because of what you mention. Changing all those links to Dominaria (Plane) will be work. --Sene (talk) 15:48, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Saga cycles

The list of cycles had one for "uncommon Saga enchantments", one of each color. But there are now at least two uncommon black sagas: Chainer's Torment and The Eldest Reborn. So what's going on here? Maybe a "cycle" of ten, two in each color? Maybe it's a cycle plus a one-off (if so, which do we consider part of the cycle)? Or we could be seeing a cycle where there is none. --BlackDiamondDragon (talk) 17:58, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

Many cycles are created by design and some are spotted by the fans. I would assume they never went out of their way to actually create a Saga enchantment cycle at one rarity. There are 14 sagas in total at all colors from uncommon to mythic rare. - Yandere Sliver 18:05, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, I'm not saying I'm against us naming a cycle. If we get five, with one of each color, at any given rarity, sure, call it a cycle. We can see once the set it fully spoiled. --BlackDiamondDragon (talk) 18:48, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
