Ah, the 90s cash-cow is still getting milked, I see. What a poor slop of slack-jawed bastards: shelling out for shiny flotsam w/ inflated valuation that can be instantly erased at corpo whim โ€” the same bullshit tactics GW's been peddling in plastic for years before. (and still is, yes)

FFS, I noped out during Antiquities when I saw what a POS "card crack" model it was. How is this still alive?! ๐Ÿคข

I love MTG, but I will not collect the cards. I have a few Commander decks to play with my kids, and I like playing draft w/ friends or online.

I've always liked the gameplay and limited strategy, and never liked the collecting/trading aspect. Even as a kid, we got a bunch of low cost cards and made fun decks to play against each other. I hate playing standard or any of the 60-card constructed formats, I stick to limited and commander.

This is the way.

Also, proxies are how I tend to teach the game, and even how to build their decks via various proxy lists, etc. ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿผ
