Stop this nonsense, please.

leave historic alone, no rebalancing please and also Modern on Arena

The biggest problem with this change is it devalues historic as a competitive format. No other competitive format has live balancing. Historic players want to feel like they're competing just like every other player. Please. Please don't do this.

Please, leave the unbalanced cards in historic, it's basically killing the format

They banned Cat/Oven because the triggers were "too clunky for players to handle" but not a word about them in historic.
Yet they will cite that players will be "confused by multiple versions of a card" in Historic, even though there will be different versions between Alchemy and Standard.
Curious.

I hope people finally start showing their dissatisfaction with their wallets, because it's the only way you'll listen. This is a horrible idea, and could've been easily "fixed" before it got to full fruition, if you've just reached out to community, or a few select members of it.

I'm not against digital only cards, but probably of them being easily "balanced" makes me not to want to dip my toes into Alchemy at all. If I got some cards for free, sure, but spending on Boosters and using up WCs is a big no-no for me.

Alchemy isn't that of a horrible idea, but it being part of Historic is, it should be a separate format from Historic.

Historic should be allowed to use all cards, rebalanced or not.

It makes no sense for Historic to receive nerfs meant for Standard/Alchemy for the sake of "simplicity".

Just.... why?!?!

Please don’t use rebalanced cards in historic!

Formats shouldn't interact with each other. If something is strong in standard, rework it in alchemy. Why should historic be a part of this?

Alchemy is ok. But nerf card in this format will impact historic is so absurd. Please don’t do that. I’m a content creator which has 2000 fans. According to the thought of my fans, no one hope historic will be impacted!

Arena needs an eternal format.

As a magic player since 1995 I PRIDE myself on my ability to remember how to the cards work and have a clear understanding of the history of the game. To get an understanding on the card and then having to relearn it is absurd. That is not how we think. Having oracle changes due to rules update is totally fine - that’s what we love about the game with the clear computer science based structure of the rules and the concept of the stack. Changing text on cards or manacost is absurd and a direction us longtime players frown upon. I still love the textless Cryptic command.

Historic has already evolved into a competitive and interesting eternal format with a lot of untapped potential. Everybody knows that legacy is the best magic format - it is nice to have a modern digital counterpart that we (almost) can afford to play.
An eternal format will continue to evolve with new cards, while still having clear archetypes assembled.

Several players have spent years and money trying to earn a collection to participate in the historic metagame. Having these Alchemy cards is an atrocious design decision. This destroys the aesthetic and nostalgic feeling of the game.

Magic players do not want to play Hearthstone on arena. If we wanted that we would play hearthstone. It is way more popular as well.

To create a digital format with nerfed/buffed/changed cards is a fine way to fix the dull standard, but perhaps you should think of the structure of standard instead of creating this monstrosity?
Maybe you could also test it be implementing a historic alchemy queue as well? Then you can test out if your player base want's this new revamped version of the best game in the world.
(Probably wont be that popular. We like Oko because he is broken and banned. We don’t want him fixed by reworks.)

#leavehistoricalone

Leave historic alone and paper like. No RNG or buffs/nerfs.
