Won’t lie when I first saw this was coming I was beyond excited. But after seeing only 3 maybe 4 cards were remotely playable I was annoyed and frankly thought this decision was laughable. I understand they want to drip feed and milk the release of content. That said Wotc consistently pushes out fringe, unplayable, commander cards (mind you a scuffed version of commander you can only play 1v1 on a visual more appealing client that for some reason can’t do what your dated mtgo client can. I am genuinely mind blown by this) and cards that have been effectively pushed out of the current pioneer format… you can’t tell people we will get pioneer there via explorer while instead only giving us one or two viable cards in what will be a 20$ content drop. Hate to break to to you this will be a net negative monetization wise as only maybe a total of 4 cards will be playable in this. No one is paying for this just give the people the cards they want. The formats they want . I promise you the easiest money is on the table and for a company that loves making money this should be a no brainer for you. The easiest W possible is on the table so why take the faster L.
