@jtempkin @derelict515 @RalZarek Avg cost to play competitive MTG has not changed in ages. MTG is $1.5-2k/annum, like many hobbies.

@MTGCritic @jtempkin @derelict515 @RalZarek why print EMA if not to make it accessible to its player base? WotC annually states that MtG is

@letzgoterps @jtempkin @derelict515 If EMA was about accessibility it would be paired with increased tourney support. That won't happen. $$$

@MTGCritic @jtempkin @derelict515 exactly my thoughts. Everyone is going to say it's about legacy or the game or players, it's not. $$$ only

@letzgoterps It's as simple as the timing was good, the slot was there, and so was the demand. Reprints intended as a drip not a river.

@MTGCritic @letzgoterps if they wanted it accessible the packs would be $3.99 with year long print runs

@GoingMadlem @MTGCritic @letzgoterps they *could* also be using this to test reception by community with regards to RL. Slow and steady.

@LaGranya @MTGCritic @letzgoterps no, there is literally zero upside to breaking the only promise they've ever made
