The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

What’s going on everyone DNinja89 here and This is a small update for those wh follow me on YouTube. I’m adding a new segment to my channel called Arena EDH. On that segment I’ll be reviewing and talking about commanders on arena. Also I’m aware that my commentary is not the best but there’s only one way to get better…and that’s just to do it! But hope to see you there, first video will be up tonight and after that I’ll figure out a schedule.

Deck discussion for New segment on my channel.

Hmm, do you think there will be alchemy commander one day ?
Most of the arena people seem to look positively at alchemy despite the meta seeming to be more or less dragons vs clerics.

It’s possible but I honestly doubt it. I was going to make some videos on alchemy but it’s not worth it, Packs and wild cards are getting harder to come by.

It wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t an entirely separate set altogether. Because of that and trying to make content for YouTube my wild cards and packs are more devoted to my YouTube channel. Personally I just feel like it’s too early to invest in Alchemy and wild common cards are ironically hard to come by.

Yeah, economy can be harsh.
Perhaps you could exploit the divide.
There will be a segment of paper only viewers, that will need to follow something new, when the "big guns" are going for alchemy.

Alchemy is basically a new wrapping for the same game. It will end up the same way as morp's
It will get continuous fixes and people will come and go just like it's always been.

A game like magic can never be fixed.

I agree, I don’t think our game will ever be fixed or could be fixed. Also I hope so I could use some more subs lol.

Here's what I think is the safe bet.
Branching out is a relatively new thing in economics, so only time will tell if it turns out to be a safe model.

What IS known is that when a company has grown to a certain size, it sort of starts rotting from the inside and if it starts burning money on grandeur, it will be the start of its downfall.

This has been the lessons from bureaucracy and large kingdoms of the past, and was described as way back as in Parkinson's law.

Hasbro/wotc is burning lots of money now by buying into algorithmic research.

All of the virtual marketing machine is a tool for marketing control, as machine learning will reveal consumer behaviour.

Take a look at kamigawa, neon dynasty.
They're learning that collectors can be coaxed into buying more by diversifying the art.

In this new set you can get one creature with 5 alternative versions of art, where the only thing altered is the color of some background flames.

The set name, neon dynasty hints at this marketing style, you will be able to collect at least 5 versions of the same deck if it's a neon dynasty deck.

Your deck can be assembled in your favourite color style now.

Alchemy is also a pretty revealing set name, as the goal of alchemists was to make gold of lesser substances.

All of this hints at a serious bunch of money being poured into a number of projects, even d&d, so hasbro/wotc is at an expansionist phase, and all empires expand before they drown in intern bureaucratic fights before dissolving.

What I'm getting at is that at some point the company will shift its goal and forget what the real money maker was, which is support of the game.

This means they will eventually go down, and from there card prices will drop as fans abandon the game.

However, smart collectors know that over time the cards will become much more valuable, and that may revive the game one day, making it retro.

The story here is to follow the real value, the physical cards, because virtual economy is too new to the arena of marketing to know if it doesn't suddenly collapse in on itself like all other kingdoms of the past.

You should support the physical sets as they will likely be the safer bet when seen on a larger timescale.

Once again I agree, it would appear that wotc are taking a page from the Pokémon tcg. They print 3-4 different styles of the same card and one is usually worth more then the rest. Personally I don’t collect cards I only build modern decks to bring to tournaments. Collecting maybe a option to look into but not right now.

You actually don't need to collect.
Buy booster boxes and simply wait.
After three years sell it, buy many more booster boxes and wait three more years.
Best stock market ever.
Someone's probably calculated the optimal time rate to sell at. If done carefully you more than double your income, but you have to be prepared for the wait of it.
It's a lot easier to sell booster boxes like this than individual cards, so I'm going to slowly convert my collection like this.

In a17 years wait you get 13 times of what you invested. But you'll be 17 years older.

I've just seen crokeyz vs cgb.

Quite a battle.

That’s a pretty straight forward market I’ll have to look into that.
