Cards such as [[Garruk, The Veil-Cursed]] can be extremely verbose and makes the card very hard to read.\r\n\r\nOn top of that, the annotation stays above the counters, which is not ideal when using a flipped planeswalker with a ton of text.\r\n\r\nI know there is a part of personal preferences, but objectively having the entire text written in the annotation is not going to work with every card.\r\n\r\nAnother example would be [[Huntmaster of the Fells]]//[[Ravager of the Fells]] which has a fair bit of text with the card:\r\n\r\n> Trample\r\n>Whenever this creature transforms into Ravager of the Fells, it deals 2 damage to target opponent and 2 damage to up to one target creature that player controls.\r\n>At the beginning of each upkeep, if a player cast two or more spells last turn, transform Ravager of the Fells.\r\n\r\nObviously when the only text is \"Flying\" it's less of a problem, but it isn't always the case.\r\n\r\nThis doesn't apply to flipcards only, some tokens can be verbose themselves (an example would be the elemental from [[Voice of Resurgence]])."}}
