Got this because I don't like carrying cash (weird because I'm pretty into privacy, but I have a minimal wallet and am scared to hold lines up at stores lol)

It actually has to be broken to open which I love. The "MTG Fund" part was a joke at first but it's been a while since I was excited for a set and actually wanted to spend money on it. Bloomburrow seems promising, loved Redwall as a kid.

Might just be product fatigue. I've been very into pauper commander lately which holds me over

I used to draft for a few weeks after each set release but nothing since March of the Machine has held my interest. I know a lot of people hated it but I still miss All Will be One draft. Short matches, little text, and all about when and what you swung. Did the prerelease for Murder and it felt like each card had a book on it and 6 different set mechanics to deal with.

Complexity creep is a problem in my opinion... yeah, some cards are fun and have to have quite a few words, but being able to play without reading and rereading is also nice. And keeping track of board state gets tiring

This is me trying to get into cEDH, and more and more cards being kinda pushed into it. There are so many interactions, so many triggers, my mind just shuts off, and I feel extremely bad losing one game after another because I was just overloaded with information. To point of seriously considering quitting MTG altogether and picking up something simpler, like plastic models.
