Explorer Anthologies
Explorer Anthologies should mostly contain Pioneer playable cards. An inspirational list is attached:

Why waste all our time curating and programming chaff when you could actually add cards people want to play with. The whole point of arena is to migrate off mtgo. Give us cards that are played in pioneer and modern.

Honestly, at this pace, we will not have full Pioneer until 2040.

Seems Wizards only see us as clowns.

I usually spend $50-100 per set. EA3 is an insult to the player base. Time to vote with my wallet

This one was pretty bad, please give us more playable options next time!

What a joke set!!! Wasn't this kind of sets supposed to bring us closer to pioneer? They pretty much wasted all slots in garbage cards!!! I see WOTC intentions very clear now: keep Explorer as it is for as much time as posible....

Yeah bringing back Pioneer with essential cards. What a joke. Whole community was hyped and you absolutely mocked us, especially with not including hidden strings. Give us actually good cards not some Commander bs.

So few relevant cards to the format are included in the anthology that it is pointless purchasing. In addition cards which would be relevant are excluded from the remastered sets.

Anthologies should make you excited to hop on MTGA, but this one just makes me sad. What a senseless assortment of cards.

This Is the worst anthology ever published, It gives litteraly no improve tò the format, which remain the same as previously. This Is a bad move under Evert point of view wizard. I am not going to invest Money on arena for a long time

As someone who will never play brawl, alchemy or historic, explorer is the only outlet I have on arena outside of standard. Please make it true to paper as soon as possible.

I find it so backwards that Wizards is less incentivized on expanding Explorer due to the fact that it's not a popular format when they can clearly remedy this by implementing the final set of cards to make Pioneer a thing in Arena. People would be more incentivized to give Pioneer a try after their standard deck gets rotated out if there is support for it.

Slow transition to pioneer is one thing, this just doesn’t cut it for how infrequent anthologies are.

I am not playing Arena again untill they start including the relevant cards from Pioneer. If WoTC thinks having Pioneer on Arena would kill paper magic, wrong. It will just bring more players, both on Arena and on paper.
Tbh I am not sure who is taking this decisions, as it is extremely easy to see that creating this kinds of products will only produce a negative effect in the mid-long term.
They ****** it up with modern, then focused on Commander forgetting the rest, now screwing on Arena... -

I am ok with the missing delve cards, I get that introducing a new mechanic in a supplemental set is a tall ask, but introducing 25 new cards to a format and leaving 3-5 decks ONE card away from being their complete Pioneer counterparts is wild to me. Hidden Strings, Chained to the Rocks, Retraction Helix, Urborg; any one of those would bring us closer to the complete Pioneer experience, instead this Anthology changes nothing.

One of the worst collections of cards you could put together for a constructed format. You even left out the best charm from that cycle to include Simic or Orzhov??? I want to play Explorer/eventually Pioneer more on this client, but y'all dragging your feet on adding cards that get decks on the client is just sad to watch.

OFFTOPIC: Ban digital cards from Historic!
