i've found buying singles of just the cards you want is cheaper than buying complete sets (albeit paying "more" because you miss out on all of the extra stuff that goes in the "potentially playable" pile), which is what i do for sets that aren't dense enough to go all-in on with ...

The only way to fix dr boom is to make it a 6/7. That's a justifiable nerf.
no, then boom would dodge BGH. giving him 6 power would probably make him even better.

Should I pretend I'm eventually going to buy Abzan Megamorph or pretend I'm eventually going to buy Bant Megamorph?

I feel like the reveal of their past to account for why he was so pissed off was poorly executed/should have been shown earlier instead of a "here's a post-fact justification for why he's bent out of shape."
That's the major/possibly only weakness of the show.

It did virtually nothing to the prices and then as time passed they inflated. The new goyf art actually caused both goyfs to go up in value.

It's an incredibly deep game. I would play (outside of borrowing friends decks while having board game nights), but I don't have the time or fiscal wiggle room to start with two other games I play now and a trip to Vegas. But many of my table top friends rave about the game endlessly.
