Full Commander

Great game. Brawl is great but they need to add normal commander with 40 life points. At least add it to custom matches. I understand not online, but when i play with friends we want time to build our board. That is hard to do with only 25 life.

Trash

Worst card game I’ve ever played you spent money to play draft or play sealed you think you’re doing a great job until they don’t give you any cards and you Mulligan into nothing again you try to switch to standard you have three cards that have four each in the deck and you don’t even draw a single one and you’re opening hand absolute garbage game don’t spend any money because they’re just stealing it from you.
