The Gideon bundle, a new standard?

Thuran

So, as most have probably noticed, the current Gideon pack is 25$, not 39,99$ like it was expected. 

Not having gone into details, it seems that the biggest change has been the removal of crystals from the package.

I just want to say that this is a HUGE step in the right direction! I am not a whale by any means, also because I don't have the means, and yet at this price I would seriously consider it worth it to pick up the bundle, or at least it is cheap enough to warrant consideration! 

So I just want to give you guys a thumbs up, even if the runes and mana jewels are still not something I am interested in paying for, it is still a marked improvement! Way to go!

@brigby Are you able to tell us whether this is merely a "special offer at reduced price" or whether it is symptomatic of a paradigm shift in the ways cards and planeswalkers will be sold going forward? If it is, then I am happy to see it go hand in hand with another number of clear improvements recently added to the game, innumerable bugs notwithstanding.


On a separate note: Nice to see that prices are now listed in local currency, was a small but constant nuisance having to do the math every single time, although the danish conversion does add 20% to the price, listing the Gideon bundle at 30$, and starter pack at 6$ rather than 4,99$

Interestingly, this change in pricing did actually make me consider buying. I won't - not another dime and stuff - but it feels very persuasive

Single colored PWs are always cheaper. Gideon of trials still costs more than the first wave of mono colored PWs that were up for sale. Each cost 15$.

Yep. It's a price increase compared to previous mono-colored PWs.
