It's gone downhill a lot the last few years IMO.

It feels like it's turned into a total cash grab from endless reprinting of desirable cards, alternate art, special cards, etc. Power creep is pretty crazy.

I just play commander and cube draft on occasion now. The new stuff just isn't appealing to me.

Commander is a really fun variation, prob the only other style I play other than legacy.

What do you play in Legacy? Before I stopped playing competitively in 2014 that was my favorite format - Dredge will always be close to my heart even if it didn't feel like I was playing Magic πŸ˜‚

That's awesome! I played in high school and then got back into it when my oldest son started to play. He got in around the "war of the spark" set which was 2019. We built a "surveil" deck that you would love if you like the dredge ability. It has two "yawgmoths will" which is a sweet card. The new set just came out with a good commander for surveil so working on a commander variation of that legacy deck.

Wow. I can definitely see that seeing play. Creatures have come a loooooong way.

Right! Feel bad for those old creatures 🀣

RIP lol

Haha classic!
