Whereas that is actually welcome information, there’s the caveat in there of solely “sure playing cards” being eligible for commerce in the beginning, with plans to “step by step increase the choice of playing cards which might be in a position to be traded.” That’s a little bit of a bummer, to not point out odd—why ought to the choice be restricted in any respect? If a participant needs a particular card, for no matter purpose, it’s unclear why such a restriction must be in place. It doesn’t seem to be it could be a technical subject, however that’s purely hypothesis on this author’s half.
Regardless, some excellent news is that new boosters will hit the Pocket app earlier than the years ends, which might be good to see. As we await the launch of buying and selling, inform us which playing cards you hope make the minimize and what you consider the choice being restricted down within the feedback!
