Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
And I'm not happy when new players have to stick to Merfolk, Goblins and Dredge just because they can't afford buying cards for the decks they would like to play.
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
I know quite a lot of T2 players who could byu BSAs if they wanted to, but they don't feel like shelling out 45-50€ for one.
Price and availability may be related, but they certainly aren't that...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
We can now go into a discussion in order to define fun. But I don't think we both don't want to write novels, do we?
Okay, so let's talk about card availability and the consequences.
What do you...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
Some people are Spikes, some people are Johnnys, some people are Timmys.
Winning is more fun than losing, isn't it?
By the way, if you want to play only with friends, then sure, Shocklands are...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
I feel like I'm repeating myself here, but nevermind.
I don't care about the prices like 2-3 months again. Or even today. Looking at Wasteland and thinking "wow, 12€, ok." is alright, buying 2 U...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
I see you don't adress the point of card availability.
What do you think is the logical evolution of the Legacy scene expanding, if WotC decides to not to reprint old staples like the Duals?
The...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
Another point I would like to add: Do you really think that Duals are that costly because they are so rare? or are they that expensive because nearly every deck needs them?
If you think you have the...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
I'm fine with high prices. It's ok, really. But what bothers me is, that the pillars of the format (Duals) aren't available to everyone. their number is too limited.
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
Well, I doubt they will reprint Wasteland in a set. Textless would be a possibility, so would FtV.
But seriously, they won't reprint Wasteland. LD, accessible by every deck? No way in the current...
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
I really hope that after FtV: Relics they do FtV: Lands and reprint some cards like the old Duals, Wasteland, and 4 other useful lands.
Re: Raise, raise, raise. The price of cardboard
Good god, I'm so happy I already bought my Underground Seas and my Tundra.
I'm so sad I still got to buy a Tropical Island.
But hey, at least the prices of these aren't going through the roof.
