For what it's worth that rulebreaker card is from Mystery Booster Commander. So like, functionally a joke set. Even if the cards are commander legal it's not too different from Unfinity. That card doesn't prove WotC will break their own rules for money or out of a lack of care for their game or whatever, it proves they'll poke fun at their own rules on a joke card. And even then, if it didn't have the "rulebreaker" flavor keyword it'd barely feel different from Prismatic Piper or Faceless One.
I don't see it as a joke card, but I agree that it's probably not a big deal. For now, at least. It's just something I don't like to see, so hopefully it's not something they go crazy with.
One thing I always admired about Magic over, say, Yugioh is their adherence to their own rules.
We often see in Mark Rosewater's asks someone asking about why they don't print a card that does this or that, and he'll say it's because the rules don't allow it. And I respect that, it means the rules actually have meaning. Whereas in Yugioh, they'll print some nonsense and release an errata saying "it works the way we say it does."
Anyway, here's Rulebreaker because rules are for losers just do whatever you frikken want.
For the record, I realize that this card makes sense. Sort of. It's worded a little vaguely and I'm sure we'll get clarification.
But that's not what I'm talking about. What this card does literally doesn't matter. What matters is it shows they're willing to write exceptions to their own rules, and that's what bugs me. Because I've seen where this can lead.
They say there will be eight of these Rulebreakers. Is it really a big deal? No. These specific decks can fudge the rules in these specific ways. For now.

The only real effect Universes Beyond has had on my life is that I need to ask my friends what their cards do more often now because I've never seen them before.
Look, I'm a certified UB hater. I refuse to buy them, I refuse to use them in my decks, I refuse to follow them in any meaningful way. But I'm not going to demand the same of others. If they want to use legal game pieces in their decks, then so be it. People gotta chill.
I agree that the pace of releases is the more serious problem than then UB. WotC used to print about a 1000 cards a year. Now, the new Star Trek has 1701 cards and it's squeezed with six other releases.
Another benefit of doing my best to ignore UB as much as possible is that it makes following new releases much more manageable! Strixhaven was great, looking forward to Reality Fracture. Two sets in consecutive order with nothing in-between.

Join me today as I open a pile of Foundations Jumpstart boosters! This was such a fun set, Jumpstart is very cool.
I wish I could open more Magic packs, I really do, but unfortunately the best way for me to get the cards I actually want is via collector boosters and those have become unreasonably expensive. Oh well. Buy singles, kids.
Like & subscribe and all that!
