Playing a card games and not trying to win is super boring

Honestly don’t hate your take there it was cool in hearthstone when u got a bonus from such a condition being met. This feels like singleton needs to be kept as a commander thing

UK wise they still on Facebook dude! I have to reach far and wide to try and get them to RCQs especially in the South West. The guys up north had a little resurgence with modern last season but whose starting that format from “new player” no one really.

I mean do you feel the same, I’ve been tagged everywhere on X about the failings of the system across the world but wanted to check in do the blue sky folks (who tend to lean more casual edh play) see the same direction or is it totally out of the vision of someone who is EDH focused

Do you have a local standard FNM that fires usually then? Curious that’s all everywhere seems to be saying there is just nobody playing in LGS level play

a common sentiment I've seen about MagicCon Atlanta has been "they shouldn't host events in the South" while i understand where this comes from(feeling like The South™️ is hostile to queer ppl) it fails to acknowledge an often ignored part of our community: people of color(specifically black folks)

Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 01/10/2025
That's a fair take but they could get closer to that line to maybe give 60 card a chance
010
Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 30/09/2025
I get it thats now a $350 card just a solid reprint/mid value staple not just bottom end alt art uncommons
000
Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 30/09/2025
Spot on there, maybe just an alt art ocelot pride or a special art sheoldread but its what's needed
000
Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 30/09/2025
Correct, let's start making 60 card events be where you can win the cards desirable by all

Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 30/09/2025
Like don't get me wrong cool promos but if u put this proportion to how players value this. Its a £1 rare if you win a £30 entry tournament. These things need to award mox opals/ocelot prides/overlords etc and then store and players would be back in their droves. Cardboard and ink costs dont vary

Oldemodave @oldemodave.bsky.social · 08/09/2025
I agree here sets "alright" at best but not awful. Just the assumption this is a mish mash of broken "miniset" or commander ideas is tainting our evaluation alongside the product fatigue that no one can deny.

I wonder what the level of criticism for this set would exist if it was just a core set. Like there are 20ish cards I’m interested in 5-10 excited for. And that’s not so different than like a normal set?
