I recently posted these points on the FOW Reddit:
"What I would like to see post Saga cluster
I will preface by stating that this is just my opinion and that I am only in and out of FOW to collect the cards, but I would like to play the game at my LGS once we are safely out of the worst of COVID. I really really really want FOW to be around ten years from now and played by at least ten times as many players, if not more.
Here is my wish list post Saga cluster:
1. Get back to the Reiya/New Valhalla frame. The new frame just isn't as attractive. The color line in the middle of the card is distracting and takes away from the card. The text box needs to be as small as possible to show off the beautiful artwork.
2. New lore with new characters. FOW needs to stop repeating itself. Bring in a whole new cast, then play out their interactions with the established characters in follow-on clusters. Maybe Ancient Egypt meets Fairy Tales. I know this is like Yugioh, but Ancient Egypt works great everywhere.
3. New artwork that takes us back to top notch quality, like in ADK Misty Dragon Spirit for all new Secret Rares.
4. Take a page from mark Rosewater's six year plan of clusters in one bang. That enabled Magic to plan content long term.

5. Get back to the LGSs post pandemic. Exploit the vulnerability Wizards has created by sticking it to their LGSs with Amazon.
6. Make Wanderer work. Make it popular. Get all those CFC boxes with ten dual stones to be hot and get them all cracked.
7. Make a digital game like Magic Arena, the Pokemon TCG Online, or Yugioh Legacy of the Duelist.
Everyone who works on FOW should be required to watch the following video, no exceptions (Mark Rosewater, '20 years, 20 lessons,' at Game Developer's Conference)
