The First Chapter establishes the foundations of Lorcana
The problem is that recurring it costs two mana itself
For 1 mana, its a 1/1 creature that gains a spore counter during your upkeep, and with three counters, you can create a 1/1 green Saproling token
But just like Pokmon and Magic: The Gathering, some Lorcana cards are worth significantly more than others, especially those tied to early releases, exclusive foils, or competitive play value
While we don't believe for a second that this is what'll be the norm for 2022, it's still a disconcerting sell from a company that's making money like never before in a game with constantly elevating costs and a worrying trend towards oversaturation and power creep
If you are drawn to the game for casual kitchen-table play, or you want to build themed collections around classic Disney films, Infinity Constructed is incredibly affordable right now
