There are some very significant differences between Magic players and MPQ players, but one of the biggest is MPQ players' preference for non-games. In Magic, Vintage is unpopular because it's insanely expensive, but also because the power level is so high that many games are decided by who goes first. Legacy isn't far from that either (one of the reasons it's slowly dying as well). Magic players generally don't enjoy games decided by the die roll and/or "did I mulligan to enough free countermagic to shut down their turn 1 win?" because they spent a ton of time working on their deck and would like to actually play Magic.

Can we start complaining about the Reserved List now, instead of Nova?

\been playing since RV, and have a full playset of OG duals
\No power 9
\\Strongest Commander deck - Nekusar.

I keep trying to talk about Magic as like, a metaphor or a comparison to MPQ, so we don't all get flagged as off topic! I don't think it's a terrible comparison but there are pretty significant differences.

I think I quietly gave up on "off topic" a while ago... 🤫

How would you know what the topic is? I don't speak any of this wizard gibberish!

I was, back in the day, an early MtG player from Unlimited through to Stronghold (from memory) and had full sets of several expansions. So I speak fluent wizard gibberish.
