    A whole new video game for Commander is kind of interesting, but if it doesn’t tie in directly with your Arena collection I think its kind of a non-starter. Also, it feels like that will yet again fragment the community even more. Arena seems to have already killed off in-person Standard, I can’t imagine it is going to help store events if they make Commander a digital game.

      How many different ways can they sell us the exact same card before players just get fed up? If I want to (digitally) play Modern I have to buy the card on MODO, if I want to play Historic I have to buy it on Arena, and if I want to play Commander I have to buy it a third time? This is their master strategy?

      At this point I cannot wait for in person magic to collapse so I can let my shop close. I just hope it happens near the end of my lease and not directly after renewal.

        That’s just so sad though. It seems like Wizards just doesn’t want paper constructed 60 card formats to exist.

          Why bother with all the costs of manufacturing and shipping and designing physical cards when you can just sell people ai generated jpgs over and over for the same price. Its money for nothing!
