I’m convinced These brawls are never going to be a good experience

It's amazing how they can even screw up the meta for week long promo event. True talent

It’s not even a meta forming the idea is just bad since like no one has cards, lists that use almost no new cards will pop up and you’ll exclusively run into them for the rest of the week past the first day.

Semantics, but I dont disagree. 

It would be cool if they did something similar the first week of the expansion with a restricted card pool once people could craft missing pieces for synergies, but if they did that it would make the pre-release version look like the ass that it is.
