The day they start offering masterpieces for cash is the day I stop playing this game. I hate pay-to-win games so much. I understand the need for some cash purchases and exclusive cards, but when you can get the best cards in the game without needing to put in any effort, why bother playing at all?
Uno is really cool! I play it with my 5 and 3 year olds. But beware.... there are also blue numbers in uno ;-)
On topic: This topic is already heavily discussed in another thread and you are absolutely correct. I normally don't play Trial of the Planes, but once in a blue (no phun intented) moon I have some time for it. Yesterday, when I had to wait for about 45 minutes, I played TotP: blue. It felt like a race who has his first combo pieces together. > 50% I was facing Brokhan with the same shell over and over again. I felt a bit sorry for my Dovin Baan, even though I had a 100% win rate.

Oh you might lose some though, isn't that the fun of it?Stop caging yourself, be creative and just have fun! Who forces you not to do it? The idea that casual play is inherently fun and competitive play is inherently dull is not one that paper MTG is based on at all. Cards are balanced so as to keep both communities happy. Embracing both casual and competitive play creates a wider customer base for the game.

Well you did say, bobby_2613 said: Oh you might lose some though, isn't that the fun of it? So you're playing with a deck which is worse than you know it's possible to build, which is not a sentiment I hear expressed by, say, top MTG players competing on the Pro Tour.

It's very helpful for some PvE bosses etc. In PvP it's just too overpowered and it's a coin flip if you have it and the opponent has it. Who casts it first seems to be the most likely winner. ...
