Why do people buy tens of thousands of Magic cards when you only need 40 in a deck to play?
Haven't we had that for a while though with trading card games - e.g. pokemon card packs.
magic the gathering? or perhaps really most trading card 'games'.
People are also leaving out stuff like Pokemon, Yu Gi Oh, and Magic The Gathering.All of them also introduce rarities (arbitrary exclusiveness), hidden cards in a pack, and extreme gambling gamification.The only non-gambling MtG packs are the preconstructed commander decks. All 100 cards are published. But the packs and boxes? Pure gambling, especially for the chase rare cards.And before anyone asks, yes, my username is based after this $2 card. <a href="https://edhrec.com
I just bought a bunch of (physical) magic: the gathering cards from abugames.com
Just like Magic cards, I guess.
