Thanks. But what if one of my reasons for avoiding MTG is completionism?Kind of hard to put a number to it, particularly with zero details on the product offering this far out.
However, they are positioning this in their slot for intro Magic products, so odds are they will have some nice newbie products on offer that can offer a complete play experience. As a point of comparison, the current Q3 Core Set has five prebuilt decks that you can get packed together for like $60 (quick price check). That would be enough for all the Magic gameplay you would need for casual family and friends play, and I expect they'll have something like that for the FR Set.
I read once that a complete, NM playset of every MTG card ever released costs somewhere around $3 million USD. Obviously that’s way out of reach for almost anyone, and so almost no MTG players have such a collection. One reason this FR set intrigues me—apart from my love of FR—would be that if I limited myself to “D&D-themed MTG cards” then a full playset might be within reach financially.
I realize we don’t have full details yet, but I just want an estimate—how much would a full playset of one of this year’s MTG sets cost (or, more accurately, would it have cost at or around the time of release)? I honestly do not know anything about this; are we talking $100? $300? $1000?
