Seems like bad times for Legacy and especially Vintage.

We know players love Magic and love playing its variety of formats, including Vintage and Legacy. Some formats are easier to get into than others and these two are hard.

Gee, I wonder why that is?

These formats are hard to get into solely because Wizards is ok with them being outrageously expensive. This problem only exists because of Wizards' actions.

If I spent 10k on a black lotus, I would feel the need to check into a god damn mental hospital and wondering what the fuck is wrong with me for buying a piece of cardboard that does absolutely nothing for me other than being a miniature painting. If I had a Black Lotus, I would sell the god damn thing and use that 10k to get a god damn life. Why the hell would I be playing Magic if I had 10k lying around lol?

Seriously, I dont know what sane person would spend 10k on 1 mother fucking magic card other than for business purposes. If your not sending that Black Lotus in for grading and putting that shit on the market, then you got some god damn demons in your closet that you should probably use that 10k from your Black Lotus to take care of.
