UG Tricky Terrain - MH3 Collectors Edition Commander Deck 1

Today we are opening UG "Mystic Intellect", our first of four Collector's Edition Commander Decks from Modern Horizons 3 [MH3].
Why are there Commander decks on a Modern legal set that's supposed to be focused on Modern? Good Question!
Because for some reason Hasbro thinks everything has to be Commander.
Purchased as a preorder on 4 June 2024 at Gaming Underground @GamingUndergroundLLC in High Point, North Carolina.
Opened 24 June 2024

I paid right around 56$ for both eldrazi and the lands deck

@1980chardison NICE! Was that pre-order pricing?

[@PsychoSquidAK]

Such a disappointing product for the prices its being sold for. No set MSRP is a huge problem. If there was a set MSRP around $100 for these decks would have been a much better product. And even then its a shame to see it come with just a basic life counter.

@PsychoSquidAK I completely agree that they need to go back to having a set MSRP, additionally MAP pricing would make a big difference in preventing large purchasers from undercutting small LGSs. Both issues are creating a feedback loop that is pushing forward crappier and crappier releases.
A great comparison is with bundles in Magic vs Pokemon. Magic bundles keep getting more expensive, lower quality, and fewer packs because of Hasbro's push for higher sales for lower costs to make their shareholders happy at the expense of players. Pokemon on the other hand is created by a company that doesn't have to answer to shareholders, and instead focuses on players and collectors. Pokemon bundles are less expensive, have far more in them, and each one has much more specialized contents.
