I think even if it's not banned the price felt bloated to considering it's availability. The supply wasn'🍸t as limited as most $100 cards, demand was just really high but there's plenty in circulation

So much doom and gloom from all these hot takes. Let's try another take, commander has been suffering from a obvious issue of not being able to describe what level your deck is at. That's why they banned the fast mana in the first place and why we need a fres🐷h take because this ha♒s been an issue the entire time for commander players.

I'm just going to say it, the tier system sounds good. At least it's trying something and putting a whole bunch of broken cards at the top bracket will not effect majority of edh players. They could print however many nadus as they want as long as players can influence the tiers they꧑'ll all end up at the top and cedh will be the craziness they ♑love while the rest of edh is unaffected.

So no, I don't think th✤e change is terrible even if the reason for the chan♊ge is gross.

Edit: Joshua I agree you can't rank a whole deck on one card but the problem is that is exactly what was happening with both Crypt and Lotus. RC was wrong to follow that thinking but a lot of the community feels that way, they don't want certain cards played so this seems like the only solution. Brackets 1-3 won't have to deal with the cards in 4 which is the pꦅoint, 4 will just have a huge variety of power levels which is just whatever it's better than banning the cards for everyone.

A point system is totally cool with me but I also know people will argue about individual card points and try to break the system making the strongest decks possible with the least amount of points. It's really a scenario where you⛦ can't win, so I feel a lighter touch and leaving it up to players is the best anyone can do.

The worst thing they could do is be too heavy handed for sure. I'm hoping the tiers idea will allow them to relax the ban list and just put all the bro♛ken stuff in the top tier basically reserving the ban list for cards that break the format

I doubt anyone is surprised by the threats. We play with these people and it's just unfortunate toxic people exist, just hav🏅e to call it out as we see it.

Overall though I'm glad there's a change, a tiered system sounds like it could be better than what we have. People saying wotc will consider financially future bans, at least wotc can safely put broken stuff t🐼hey print in the top tier. So cedh tier 4 can hop❀efully become the wild west it's players enjoy and tier 1-3 can be safe from a larger list of degenerate cards

Spencer Comparing the Series S to more powerful consoles is a mistake. Think of the console as🉐 a bridge to people like me that never buy the newest console and you can see it's got a market share that no other console normally reaches. So basically every sale is a net positive because people like me don't want a PS5 or X but the S price was so good I bought three, one for everyone in my family. Xbox definitely has a future in making consoles specifically for this market and expanding it versus directly competing with PlayStation.

I feel like you're undercutting the success of the series S. I love my little S and my digital library went from 40ish to aroundꦦ 200 in the last 3 years. Developers having to turn off ray tracing and limit fps is extremely overblown as it's kind of expected considering where it is in it's life cycle. I feel like the series S is the future of Xbox but they should have taken it a step further and added something like a Roku remote to compete with other streaming devices. I tried to get my family to switch due to the awesome price and ease of use but the controller was not intuitive/familiar enough. I hope Xbox offers something similar for the next generation though, it's been an absolute blast to use and a huge upgrade for the one at an amazing price.
