I would suggest you let the programmers know that we would be displeased if a trade-in system were implemented and our hoarded cards wouldn't count. Thank you

Thank you Just to clarify, I meant retroactively converting runes (acquired through duplicate conversion) into equivocal cards.

Brigby wrote: My perception of Ornithopter is that the value in it is not so much its stat strengths (4 mana 4/4 isn't game-changing, I agree), but more so as a collector's item since it was the first 0 mana creature in MTG, dating back to Antiquities. (Paper MTG's Masterpiece Ornithopter is already quite the popular card for collectors)

Justyce wrote: I actually think the changes are great and it's a good step forward. If you fix the dupe problem I will have no problems with the current implementation. I much prefer a system where spending money (when the dupe issue is fixed) gives you a large advantage and freeby rewards should be kept as little as possible to stop the top from being comfortable just living off the rewards. I would recommend a target requirement if spending say $40 a month to keep yourself competitive and above free to play players who can get by on progression only.
