of course they are

They are, but the prices of foil uncommons from WHO/PIP were very high because of this.

This is the worst for my all commons cmdr deck

Literally *not* what we meant when we wanted booster packs like they were in the late 90’s. We want $2.99 packs with 15 cards in it. Not packs with the same foil probabilities as in the late 90’s.

*everyone disliked that*

"WotC making choices that are good for the consumer that could be solved by changing nothing" challenge: still bafflingly impossible, how many years running now?

Gotcha, that's definitely going to suck then, I'm sorry.

This is the first thing I said to @redfade.bsky.social when he told me the spark notes. I am not excited for the next Flow State being a $40 foil

And there’s so much cool art on commons/uncommons that looks really sweet when given the foil treatment. Making that more inaccessible is a huge bummer.

Thinking about the discussion that was had over putting Dawnhand Eulogist's art on a common when it was spoiled and how one of the best parts of Magic is that ANY card can be someone's favorite card. Obviously foiling isn't the end-all be-all of how cool a card is but I have to think it's a factor!

RIP Pauper bling

Foil Commons/Uncommons for the people who love to bling their Standard decks or the Commander decks! I am bummed.

ouch, my Pauper Cube, every update will be 20x the cost now -- card availability is much lower in Poland in general, let alone collector booster stuff

It's funny if the intent was to make more foil rares to make packs "worth more" that the results will be exactly the opposite
