It's a functional way to play MTG online and it's pretty generous with giving you plenty of cards without spending money. For some reason WOTC wants to do this online-only version of MTG called 'Alchemy' that's totally worthless and bogs down the actual game everyone wants to play and that's really annoying sometimes.

This is the best version of MTG so it's got all the flaws actual MTG has but otherwise, yeah, it's fine.

It sure is Magic: the Gathering against (mostly) randos, alright. I like MtG, even if I don't like everything done with it. Since we're still in a pandemic, this is the only way I get to play it anymore. It's entirely possible to do F2P, but not really if you're trying to be on top of the metas and get exceedingly high in Ranked- unless that's just what you're doing. I like making weird, off-beat decks, so it takes me a while, but I still have plenty of fun.

Fuck off, Wizards. The shuffling fucking sucks, I can play 10 games without seeing a card.

Magic is super cool irl and the online experience you can have is a manipulated shit that fucking crashes or lags if you tab out, fuck off.
