Ok since I'm getting accused of push polling and bad faith, we'll give the people what they want:

Fair and balanced questions:

What sets from the 50s were good? Why?

What sets from the 50s were bad? Why?

What individual cards from the 50s were good? Why?

What individual cards from the 50s were bad? Why?

Which mechanics and/or themes from the 50s were good? Why?

Which mechanics and/or themes from the 50s were bad? Why?

On the whole, do you think the 50s sets were good for the game? Why or why not?

Discuss!

Similarly there are about as many cards I disliked from the 40s as there are from the 50s.

Thanks @Armus for actually making me go through the sets to find that out because I was initally swayed to one particular side just from all the stupid political bullshit.

One thing I can say is that the 40s made me feel more intense about cards. In both directions though. I intensely loved some of them and I intensely hated some of them.
There were a lot more cards that made me go "meh" in the 50s.

So I'm hoping design is willing push the limits a bit more again in the 60s.
