Amy the Amazonian @amytheamazonian.bsky.social · 22/07/2026The price to play Cube Drafts in MTG Arena is too high. 2328931 289
malakim2099 🔜 MagicCon Atlanta @malakim2099.bsky.social · 22/07/2026What the heck is the reason for that price point? Geez. 140 4
Mike E @phegan.dev · 22/07/2026As someone who prefers limited formats over standard constructed, I had to stop playing. Standard grind was burning me out just to play limited. 190 9
SlothicMania @slothicmania.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I was understanding for the powered cube, but for a much more casual one like this one... nah this isn't it. But of course now we're stuck with this price because people have shown they're willing to pay it! 120 2
Garanama @garanama.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Cube is my favourite format in paper, in Arena I played it once. It is absolutely crazy expensive. 010 1
Love Deterrence @disasterrabbit.bsky.social · 23/07/2026I tried cube on Arena once and because I was new to it sorta just picked whatever. Then just got combod out of most games and went 1-3 and went "well that was a waste of my money Im never doing that again" Having it so high genuinely feels predatory 010 1

Ben 🦹 @getlefty.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I don't know how much money that is. You don't get to keep what you draft either? 000 0
Cassie Cummings aka CassMTG @cassmtg.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Arena is awful! I often tell players to avoid it for the predatory pricing. 070 7
Davin 💻 "koskadelli" @dfrankosky.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Listen man, Magic only made $500M this quarter. You need to start thinking about the shareholders. 0160 16
Bugs, Yaoist @bugsmaytrix.bsky.social · 22/07/2026it's fucked up like cube is so peak, i want folks to be able to enjoy it 1350 35
Wish 🔜 MagicCon Detroit February 26-28 @wishnomore.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Imagine being new, trying this sweet cube thing you’ve heard so much about, getting rolled 0-3 and losing literally like 10 dollars or whatever it is 010 1
WowCoolRobot @wowcoolrobot.bsky.social · 23/07/2026damn, for these prices it seems like a smarter play to just buy a powered proxie cube in paper 110 1
Straw Hat Cake @muguwaranocake.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I thought the fact cube was phantom meant it would be cheaper 0130 13
toastyloaff.bsky.social @toastyloaff.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I tried arena cube twice. Went 0-3 both times. Haven't tried since because I felt like I wasted 20k gold. Not gonna waste it again. 080 8
Jared, Excited Comic Guy @jrodbad.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I swear, the more bad decisions they keep making with Arena, the more I question why they couldn't just put this money into Magic Online instead of splitting resources into a pair of half baked clients that seem to have more problems than good features. 210 2
Herzatz Fish @herzatz.fish · 22/07/2026For 10k gold I expect to keep the card or have a LOT of gold/gem even with 1 victory. 010 1
Jonny @jonnysilence.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Absolutely. Cut the prize packs, just give us gem prizes as they are, and cut the entry for it. What drafter needs prize packs? 010 1
slimedad.bsky.social @slimedad.bsky.social · 23/07/2026My group loved arena. It’s been too expensive for a long time. Over the past year we leveraged LLMs and built our own Arena, we won’t go back. We don’t share it, we don’t need a critical player base. We play mtg on our own terms. Everyone in the project is a professional software or db guru. 010 1

Violet Stardust @violet-stardust.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I kinda get it for powered cube, I'll happily play that price because it's the best magic is, but it's wild for this kind of cube with alchemy that people don't really want as much 000 0
George Azeria @1984.rip · 23/07/2026They want Arena to be a gacha game so badly but what I don’t understand is how they’re so bad at it? Every even vaguely successful gacha game is more generous than Arena is. 010 1
