Sorry but I cannot disagree with you more, Magic is the primary game
where money wins. How many National type 1 championship decks have you
seen without any moxes, black lotus or the 3 big blue. Not to mention
dual lands, mana drains, etc etc etc. There are so many powerful magic
cards costing $20-$300 that the list is too long for this posting.
SRtcg has some really good challenges like mine field, a common that
kills almost all members (if not all) of any 5-6 runner teams. I have to
agree that some of the challenges I like best are rare but hey thats
life. I have played a pretty good deck that has alot of decent rares in
it only to lose to a deck of mainly commons and uncommons.
