  • This all sounded really exciting, right up until the end bit. Massive shake up to draft experience? Could go well if they build sets accordingly. More exciting cards per booster? Nice. But then they went and shit the bed by announcing the cost is going up to Set Booster prices, making draft even more expensive. Yeh, you lost me there, looks like this won’t be the thing that brings me back to in-person draft. Just a greedy grab, yet again.

    • @Fluid @Evu It's overpriced-cardboard shrinkflation, is what it is xD

    • Yeah I agree. I can't understand this. This makes me in no way want to go to an in person draft. It was already kind of expensive and time consuming, but now why would I pay even more.

      • @mike @Fluid Because the packs have more value in them...

        While sort of correct, it's at the expense of play experience, so it's a real downgrade.

        • Which might be true, if it weren’t the case that WotC can print whatever they like at no extra cost to production. If anything, the price of these booster should go down as it’s 1 less playable.
