Will the missing commons from SOI and Kaladesh ever be on Arena?
I really love all the work that the Arena team has put into implementing older cards from Pioneer.
With every one of these remastered releases though, there are some cards that get left out. I assume some are not worth the time to implement, but others are left out to make the draft experience more enjoyable.
I was really excited to build a deck with Vessel of Volatility from SOI, but it's not in the set and not on Magic Arena at all. Would it be possible to add some of these cards even if they're only accessible by spending wildcards?
It's possible that dev time is a significant issue here in which case I understand. These are often commons that don't have significant gameplay complexity though.
Ovalchase Daredevil is another example. I've been waiting for that card to exist on Arena ever since it was left out of Kaladesh Remastered. I worry at this point that it's never going to get added.
I know there's pressure to only implement the cards that see the most play or the ones that will be best for draft, but part of the fun of magic is finding new or unexplored cards and figuring out how to make them work.
Thanks for all the work on the game.
Best,
Tristan
