Posted by splumer It seems to reward throwing gobs of money at it.

You're not wrong at all. The idea of basically throwing away my deck every couple of months because the cards it contains rotates out of cycle (modern/standard) is sickening. Competitive vintage/legacy decks can run thousands of dollars (couple hundred bucks, or more, for ONE CARD...no joke) so fuck all that. Even competitive commander decks can be prohibitively expensive. Still a fun game to play, so I just play with similar budget minded friends that don't have hundreds/thousands of dollars to throw at a card game.
That being said, the costs can sneak up on you really quickly. $0.50 here, $2 there, next thing you know you've spent $200 on a stack of cards.
At least the art is cool...lol
