Why has AX shifted to Legacy if Ixalan block is staying in Standard?

Is Race to Orazca going Legacy as well?

We spend more and more time playing Legacy in recent times.

    Not only going legacy, that makes AX even faster, but make it a 2-day event.

    With legacy I beat this event in 15 minutes. And it stays there for another 40 something hours. Boring! 

    Btw. That means a jewel cut of 25 jewels per week (250->225)from daily business.

    I like RT but AX was a nice daily jewel bringer too and it took average 20 min.

    Combine it with AWR on weekend and you have a lot of time to master cards in story mode.

    Okay, nice jewel income, but there are not so many other ways to mine jewels. You can't buy it for cash regularly.

    It's a cut of 10%. If they would cut crystals that way everybody would applaud?

    Didn't AX usually skip Sunday anyways? The jewel income has gone down by 25/week, but that's because Rising Tensions rewards 20 jewels instead of 25, and I think that's fair considering you get a mythic/500-750 orbs instead.

    Maybe right. But if you have  nothing more to craft more orbs are not very usefull yet.

    I like the fact that the event +20 crystals. With ax on weekend +60 crystal per week.

    There's always going to be something more to craft. You don't automatically get all the mythics from the new sets as they are released.

    No, but alredy have enough to craft every missing card in some weeks.

    If the 2500 orbs a week stays, it's a much better deal than 25 pink

    25 pinks is a nondupe mythic after 16 weeks.

    2500 orbs is a nondupe mythic after 2 weeks ;)

    If you don't have every craftable card and don't chase for MP. 
    But well... next set I don't have to purchase so much PP then.

    I understand but this means you are in a fairly singular position and don't represent very much of the player base. you need to work out things that will help you and people like you but _still_ be better for beginners and long timers with less resources too.

    I already have a plan. Less PP more craft and less jewels for myth. 

    We will see, in three month or so.

    Whales problems, not concerning. More positive than negative with new event. But forums are usually negative slanted anyways.
