alchemy ruining historic
I'm really starting to get sick of Alchemy. I've stopped trying to collect alchemy cards and I refuse to play in any alchemy event. Furthermore, I disdain the fact that alchemy cards are able to be used in Historic. You might as well take out Historic. Alchemy is ruining the wonderful Historic format that you once had. I find these alchemy card such as Teferi Time Raveler (that the original was banned) and Undercity Plunder, to name a few unfair, and I'm constantly getting beat by Esper and/or Azorious control decks. I used to have a good Historic deck that I enjoyed playing. But it is amateur compared to these Alchemy decks that ppl are bringing in. I'd like to either see alchemy in it's own format, or get rid of it altogether. I loathe the format, and allowing these cards in Historic, is furthermore making me loathe that too. I've seen other ppl in this forum complain, yet it seems you shed a blind eye and push alchemy on us even more. I would like to see something changed about this otherwise, I may stop playing because it's not fun.

Agreed historic was good, and is probably still my favorite format to play, but I have started auto scooping every single time I see an alchemy card because I think alchemy is a cop out. It just makes magic feel like hearthstone to me, and that is not a compliment.

Historic is not historic as it's a made up format containing alchemy cards.
There is also nowhere to play cards for the brand new Modern Horizons 3 set that is not infected with the insane non-paper-mechanics alchemy cards being playable.

I had to verse a commander who conjured the power 9..
There is another mono green commander who conjures free lands.

Also, they should remove alchemy from Historic brawl, or make its own brawl separate from it so I can stop playing against anything with perpetual and seek in its description or mechanics.
I play MTGA to simulate the paper experience I can no longer afford to play, and these digital only cards with their un-"Magic the Gathering"- like effects are making the format not fun anymore. -

I'm really sick of these powerful Alchemy cards, which are allowed to be played in Historic I see being used constantly. Banned cards that were once in Historic such as Teferi Time Raveler, is even more powerful in Alchemy. I once had a fun Historic deck that I enjoyed playing that is constantly being thwarted to heavy used alchemy cards. I've seen many people complain about this and instead it seems you guys shed a blind eye and push alchemy even more. Please do something about this. I don't enjoy playing alchemy, I stopped playing that format, bc of the ridiculousness of how powerful alchemy cards are. And now they are allowed in Historic which is ruining that format for me as well. I might as well go back to collecting hard copies of cards. Please take Alchemy out of Historic. It makes Historic less fun.
