A would-be windmill slam ruined by p2w – Stormbound Review

With 20 years of MTG experience as well as a dozen other strategy card games, I have so many good things to say about this game. The strategy, gameplay, mechanics, graphics and collection building are all incredibly well done. They’re unique, refreshing, and interesting. But there is a progression mechanic built into the game that increases the power of your cards with your duplicates and since you can of course buy cards instead of grinding them, you can actually be beat by the same exact cards but powered up versions. Imagine in magic playing against an opponent whose Lightning Bolts dealt 4 damage because they paid a premium for them. This game hs incredible promise and I would happily pay to play it, but unfortunately it’s a pay to win “competitive” game. Truly a travesty
