They shouldn't be concerned about "playing magic" and other stuff like that they should be concerned about winning
idk playing for some lore reason or whatever seems boring to me the point of the game is to win. And when I tried playing it's not always even the hyper competitive decks but I like stuff like mass land destruction and prison. But they players don't want any interaction refuse to play boseiju,fow or any of the cards to defend themselves from others decks. They just want to police what you play they want to force you to play what their useless deck that ramps for 6 turns before even pretending to do anything and anything that interacts with them in ANY way is toxic because they don't even want to play just win themselves with no opposition to feel good about their shitty deck. Like you want to play mono green ramp but I can't destroy your lands, kill your creates or counter your spells? That seems fair
It's only the commander players that suck. Players who play real formats don't have the same problems
But the point of magic is not be D&D. In my opinion D&D is a terrible game because the rules are arbitrary and you're supposed to sit there and hallucinate or something. What makes mtg a good game is that there are concrete rules and a clear objective, if you have arbitrary nonsense like rule 0 and aren't even supposed to win then you might as well just not play, the whole point is to win like I don't get it
Playing intentionally bad cards and shuffling them around for an hour doesn't sound like a fun experience
Because sometimes I want to play something different and whenever I destroy their lands they get mad
Cedh players atleast aren't toxic 3 year olds but Legacy is better
The most fun format is legacy not commander? Strategically complicated, the only strategy there is is how good your deck can be before the opponent starts crying, people literally don't even want you playing a good deck or trying to win there's no strategy just shuffling cards around
Everyone I've played with plays stupid decks that need a million mana to function and when I destroy their gredy manabase with no basics they cry like a 3 year old instead of just playing counter spells or somerthing
Like it's the most annoying format every where 2 year olds always complain about your deck and don't actually want you to win but just shuffle cards around for no reason and if you ever win they all just complain that you are playing a good deck (which is the entire point of the game), because all the annoying salty people don't let others play what they want there is no interaction and the boards just fill up with 90 creatures and stupid 5 card combos that shouldn't be playable and it's a huge mess where no one even understands what's going on, like how is this the most popular mtg format
Idk maybe people thought it was too basic or trying to attack libertarianism
No need to be angry all the time though it's a cool game and ther's some cool sets in there.
Ther's non American libertarians but I think they're more common in the US
What you don't understand is money, money is an abstraction of the value you created through your labor, when you buy something you exchange your labour for someone else's labour.
What you are asking is for you to provide no labour but get free food from another person's labour ( also known as slavery ).
No matter the economic system the simple reality that things like food and housing aren't free are true, so someone has to work.
The free market simulates everyone using their strengths since people end up in the jobs they are best at and are actually needed by other people ( if you want to make art all day it better be good enough for another people to exchange their labour for it). In capitalism you are forced to be useful to others
People's lifes today are better than they have ever be, instead of being jealous that some people have it better because of their contributions to the economy ( other people valued their labour highly so they got paid more) maybe be grateful of the living conditions you are given. If you really want to live in a mansion work hard for it and maybe one day you'll get it.
I know it's trendy to hate on capitalism but please study some economics before trying to demolish the very thing that enables you to have a phone and post here
Dump regulations to kill the free market
Most states aren't and income tax isn't the only tax ther's capital gains sales etc
Exactly if you are a hunter and are too lazy to go hunt you die of starvation. They have no idea how economies and just want the government to do everything for them while they sit home all day and play video games
Lol have you seen the taxes in the US
And it should be that way but some people want to change that because they're selfish. Most billionaires still pay around 1% tax which is way more money than your average person paying 50%. Also it depends on the place but tax heavens like the islands in the Caribbean don't really have public infrastructure ( since ther's no tax) so it's perfectly fair. And if they visit or do business in a high tax country they're still paying sales tax or inderectly contributing to income tax through creating more/better job opportunities
If it was voluntary and a flat amount it would be fair, you might like it because it benefits you but it's completely ridiculous for a billionaire who doesn't event want to use these insufficient services
