Remove Digital-Only Cards from the Timeless Format
The timeless format is a big step forward and many players, including myself are excited to start playing it.
However, the constant pushing of digital only designs and pursuit of empty slogans such as "all cards on arena are legal" add nothing to the excitement and health of the format, many players would rather a true to paper experience with as little digital designs as possible.
Please consider removing alchemy from Timeless.

I think this is an important issue. Alchemy cards are feelbad cards.
Alchemy and historic are a great match, because you seek to balance the format on the product site.
Historic wants to be curated.Timeless is the eternal no-ban, only restricted true to paper format, if changed. Which will help Arena immensly, if you want to bring strong unbalanced/cards into Arena Timeless is an haven always there.
Powerlevel are over the top for a reason. Timeless could even be a better vintage in Paper! Cost wise etc.

100% Agree. Alchemy has ruined my non standard game play. It has basically rendered all my older cards useless because we are not given options of playing larger formats without Alchemy changes and it really does make me consider if I really want to keep investing in a platform that is diverging from the paper experience.

I was actually very excited for the Timeless format. I quit playing Arena when Alchemy reared its head into both formats I played (Historic and Historic Brawl). I thought this might get me back onto the client, but I my disappointment was immeasurable when I found out that Timeless is yet another Alchemy Format.
Will not be returning until this changes -

I feel happy when read about Timeless. My initial happiness has removed when I read that includes Alchemy cards.
Please, remove Alchemy cards from Timeless. Alchemy players have Historic.

Please. Alchemy players have Historic. Please stop shoehorning Alchemy into everything. You can give us an Alchemy-free format that won't break promises to people who have already bought into Alchemy, since this is a new format without any financial obligations. You know there are a ton of people out there who stay away from Historic, just because we hate digital-only cards so much.

Best way to get me back playing arena is having timeless without alchemy cards. Make 2 timeless one with one without, Timeless and Timeless prime

This would be an excellent way for the format to truly distance itself from Historic. It would also appease folks that do not appreciate mechanics that violate rules of paper magic like Perpetual, Conjure, and Seek

lol. There is no reason for this petition. The alchemy cards are hardly relevant anyway.

Alchemy cards aren't magic cards. They're the fever dreams of people with bad ideas.

Please for the love of god let us have something without alchemy. Literally what is the point of this if it's just historic again but you unbanned spreading seas

I don't see why both historic and timeless need alchemy in them, one with and one without makes way more sense to me. I predict a lot of people will leave historic for timeless as it stands.

Yes please, remove Alchemy from this format and allow Historic to continue to be the ugly digital step-child of Arena. I stopped playing Historic when Alchemy was released and haven't gone back, likewise I will not be playing Timeless for the same reason.

This is not important to me at all. I like the digital only cards. I like Historic. I like exploring new design spaces. Timeless sounds fun, too, and is going to do a number on my wildcards.
