@Semjaza At least there the were trying to straight nerf. And going from +1/+1 to +1/-1 is a nerf, just not on *that* card
@Spzi opperating in fear of a too strong card leads to boring sets. But it is the right way to do the changes that don't get tested.
@meant2live218 @MysticKetchup some of the Mirrodin block bans were similarly wide sweeping, but had to hit more cards in each deck.
@MysticKetchup I've always cracked into one pool and built from there. But then the bulk I've done were pre prerelease kits.
@MysticKetchup @Semjaza 2HG is awesome, but random partner is definitely a mixed bag, you never know how it is going to go.
Hopefully not paired up with someone that is anal about ending the day with perfectly equal value split of the cards that were opened.
@nexguy @MysticKetchup That is valid for insular play groups, it doesn't work at conventions. And only partially works at stores, they can be a mixed bag.
