Thanks for putting your thoughts together here, Jimmy. I have got to agree that these prices feel incredibly out of touch. I don't buy the whole price discovery argument - we've had more than a few promos over the last couple of years to allow for that. I am absolutely of the mind that we want to create scarcity in the card market, however, retail pricing should not be the primary reason for said scarcity. Limited print runs and high demand should be at the core of ongoing scarcity. While we theoretically tick the box on limited print runs with the shortened promotion cycle (2 weeks), these are not game-breaking cards and, as far as I can tell, they will not be must-have cards in the Modern meta. The massively high price (I would suggest at least a 20% price reduction) along with an underwhelming card offering is going to leave a lot of folks on the sidelines eating popcorn. I will be eating mine. For the sake of the DAO, I hope we see a very different approach in subsequent promo releases.
