@mike @MysticKetchup WotC probably considers it a win if 1% of the completely new players stick around. The returning players probably have a better %, but there is a lot less of them, but they may also spend money more freely while trying it out again.
@mike With WotC happy to have currently in print cards that are so rare that they are hundreds of dollars (Oracle of the Alpha) I have trouble being 100% against proxies.
I think there are some limits to what should be done, and always ensure that proxies you use aren’t likely to become fakes. (A line that is crossed when someone acquires the card thinking it is real)
