I still like playing but I think the last time I bought anything other than singles from my lgs was almost 20 years ago. I never understood the appeal of gambling just to have a bunch of trash in my collection, now I feel the same plus fuck giving WotC money
I used to go to FNM every week with a group, got into EDH, built decks, went to GPs, it used to be so much fun! Now it’s just this cheap cash grab, Arena is miserable, Moto never gets talked about because they don’t profit off it like Arena (and it’s never going to get updated or fixed in any meaningful way), the power creep is absolutely bananas they’re on track to invalidating years worth of cards. It’s just really unfortunate it went downhill soooo fast. And we’re going to get more of these stupid crossover sets with a billion stupid overlapping keywords 😭.
It’s also frustrating because deck building games are fun, and Arena is the only “F2P” version that scratches that itch, but their hidden ranking/matchmaking system makes it borderline unbearable.
I used to love playing MtG. I don’t really anymore, and I won’t give another dime to that shit company. Fuck WotC and fuck Hasbro.
