Bit the bullet and grabbed stifle? I'm waiting on a reprint for that; MH3 did have Consign to Memory which is weaker but it's 1/4 the price of stifle. Love the RKF fact or fiction, nice vanity treatment for $.25 can't go wrong. The retro foil dramatic reversal is also a steal I run that same copy in my Stella Lee deck because it was like $.80. Your pick ups are always well curated.

For the most part I really dislike foil. It's often too dark to view or read (especially if you are sleeving them) or display, too Pringles-y to play with, and just all around more annoying. I'll allow for foils in my collection if it is something that actually looks better or more striking in a foil (maybe one in every few thousand cards does--God's Willing for example), or because I drafted or cracked one in a pack, and there's no other cost-effective means of getting another, flatter treatment. I do kinda like the foil etch treatment for some of my commanders though.

I don’t know about that theory. WotC has previously stated that teams that work on one expansion, do not work with other teams about the upcoming release. Mark Rosewater has acknowledged this in previous posts on his “blog-atog”. It would make more sense for them to work together in the future to make sets more fun to play with each other and not have some cards dominate formats for years. Fingers crossed that they progress in that direction in the future.

WotC has released “textless” cards previously. When they first came out, they were pretty easy to remember what the text was because they were very commonly played cards. Years later, I can’t remember half of those cards wording. I understand people have cell phones and can look up cards most of the time. My local game store has horrible reception, so whomever is playing these cards, better have the full card ready. Some of them are pretty wordy.

I know there's the proverb about the man who buys cheap shoes having to pay more in the long run than the dude who spends more for a quality set of boots, but surely there's a cost benefit analysis to be made when they're literally 5-6x cheaper than similar products (boulder, bastion, etc).

After using them for a few months, I can say they are better than the cardboard deck boxes. Just don’t toss them in the bottom of a bag. The tops will come off and your cards will go everywhere.

Thank you for educating me about this. As you guessed, I had no clue. It wouldn’t have been something I would have spent my hobby dollars on. Still for the product, it is okay. I would rather ship singles in a full plastic top loader. Not having the rigid plastic on both sides of the card is asking for potential damaged during shipping. Shipping a card in a standard penny sleeve reversed in a top loader with some masking tape is just more economical and seems to be safer. If I was going to store higher end cards, I will stick with a full plastic slab. It’s a nifty idea, just not for me. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it.
