People keep hyping up Magic to people, just going "wait for a better client to MODO!!!!"

that's thanks to frontloading players with all the free shit, you can do that twice over in Shadowverse too and yet rate of acquisition of "dust" in that game is on par with Hearthstone

mtg arena gives out way more free shit too. I can make way more decks than I ever could in hearthstone after eyars

Most of them are jank, sure, but I've had success with Trickster's Assault (It's just Autumn Burchett's mono blue)

that card is a reprint, in fact most of the busted cards were released a decade ago or more
standard babies dont know anything about power creep

>you can make literally any deck you want for free in like a week on a fresh account
not only is that not true, youd have to farm wildcards for months to make any decent, you would also be limited to just one deck until you farm enough wildcards for another deck which would take almost a year.

It's really not. Shitstone is infinitely worse.

I spend all my gold on drafts and I have more wildcards than I know what to do with. Just spent a bunch of them making a Bolas's Citadel deck for shits and giggles even though a quarter of it is rotating out in three months. And I haven't spend any money on the game. Not even the 5 bucks welcome package deal, which is supposedly real good value.

The issue is that you can't jank in the game. With how wildcards work you are punished by not building the most competative meta-deck you can. You don't get enough cards to warrant you building some random bullshit decks.

I want to dick around in my card-games.

is there really any way to encourage that though? even with playing paper magic the only way you can do fun dicking around stuff is when you're playing with people you know who agree to the same terms.

Meanwhile, Shadowverse is giving every player 239 legendary cards for free to celebrate their 3rd birthday.
