I played back then, and in EU where everything was 6 months behind the US. We had sleeves from at least 1995 when Mirage came out. And when I bought my first expensive singles in late 1994 (iirc either $11 dual lands or a $15 Fork) they were mailed in sleeves. People played their oooh-so-expensive $50 Lotuses (Unlim, Betas were "insane" at $80) in sleeves too from early 1995 so all cards from then on were sleeved. Interestingly enough for the rest of us with no P9s, we mostly played sleeves because they made the cards easier/smooth to handle when shuffling and didn't smash the edges so bad. And for a 15 yr old making $9/hr a $11-12 dual land was still a lot of money to not sleeve.

Force of Will VS Wooly Spider
@yamchadragonball69832 ай бұрын
Honest opinion: Playing with force of will main deck is a terrible choice in this slow-ass format. I dare anyone to look over the card pool and come up with 5 decent decks. It's Ice Age + Alliances, no other sets allowed. Glossing over the two sets i came up with 3 decks. Necropotence (BR, possibly UBR), Glaciers control (WUR) and....RG Spiders. I believe the only restricted card is Zuran orb. There where no bans in standard, only restrictions. Glaciers and Zuran orb would be banned the following year.

i mean, theres plenty of good 3 mana drops when the ability is going to for sure get you value. look at cards like shadowmage infiltrator. he knows the ability will score value, so the card is worth the 3 mana. it was a well thought out plan, not just autopiloting the most effecient numbers

I've played the game since almost the beginning, and it's amazing how much better creatures have gotten. In many cases, common creatures today are better than the rare creatures of 25+ years ago. I remember decks used to splash for Derelor - a rare 4/4 for 4 mana with a drawback. Nowadays there are common 4/4's for 4 mana with positive abilities.
