The real rub with MtG is that people were screaming for a competent online client, all Wizards of the Coast could say was 'I dunno bro, just buy cards and play MTGO (shitty client that only functions if you have cards) or play irl, fuck you."
then all of a sudden Hearthstone comes out, hits it big because of course it fucking does, it takes the audience MtG is actively denying and refusing to support in any way but the bare minimum.
And wouldn't you know it, Magic Duels comes out a couple of years later, basically the beta test for MtG Arena. Despite what they said about a proper client being too hard, they just banged that out there. It's almost like they could've just done that when we fucking asked for that instead of cucking the market for as long as possible. What a buncha jews, seriously.
And that's why I play Hearthstone now and not MtG, though HS itself has pleeeeenty of flaws.
