pretty much. I've had a ton of fun drafting so far too so it doesn't bother me all that much. I also don't mind that I might have to pay for Axe or w/e card on the market as opposed to opening a ton of packs and not getting what I want either.

Well, I mean, it's literally a gambling model. I think a court in the US said something like "It's gambling, but it's niche and baseball cards are part of our heritage, so we can just ignore it". So I fully expect to see it banned for anyone <18 eventually, and probably banned from entire states after there are some horror stories emerging (I'd guess some of the deep south states where gambling is still totally illegal). Unless of course, virtual trading cards flop entirely (I doubt it).

Exactly, it's essentially gambling but with intentionally diminished potential for profit.
don't fukn price gouge me with this bullshit

Just charge me a price that appropriately corresponds to the development cost asshole.

Having singles available on a free market is an improvement but the larger issue is that the pricing model of card games is a useless relic from the '80s

Can't TL just remove the option of registering aliases with the letter combinatoin of I-E-L-T-S to get rid of that kind of adbots? Most of those I've seen pop up in this thread seem to have it in their name.

The drama about Skem and kuku typing ching chong in-game spiraled out of control and now it seems like they are banned from the next major that takes place in china.
