   This game has been getting bombarded by harsh reviews that are 80% junk reviews complaining about bugs which inevitably become fixed, but thisThis game has been getting bombarded by harsh reviews that are 80% junk reviews complaining about bugs which inevitably become fixed, but this game is pretty fun. A lot of people complain about "crummy cards" an the 4 common/3uncommon/2rare/1mythic deck construction restrictions, but it keeps the game BALANCED. It's kind of nice having magic games again where you don't have to deal with a 3rd turn Rafiq that enables your lifelinker to deal 10 drain damage on the 3rd turn anymore. My biggest qualm is that the set size is waaayyyyy too small. At least with hearthstone it feels like your a card collector with a lot of random chance when opening packs, with this, it's more like X amount of packs you either need to buy or free-earn to get the entire set automatically. They can remedy this by adding a disenchant copied cards feature like in hearthstone or make it so you can actually trade cards with people online to give these cards some real value.… Expand

   If you don't play Magic, the tutorial is really well done, and you will find in the game a gameplay with a good depth, many cards, and many ways to win.
   If you already play Magic, it's a cool game for playing when you don't have your friends at home. The mechanical depth is here, but with less cards than the physical game (and it's absolutely normal...)
   
   I regret some graphical features (anti-alisasing !), but you can force them with your graphic card settings applications.
   
   I never experienced crash or disconnections with this game, so I definitely recommend it, and it's free, and you can enjoy the game without pay anything (I already play to the physical game, so I don't plan to buy any card on Magic Duels Origins)… Expand

   This game is one of the most frustrating games I've ever experienced when it comes to MTG. 200 coin cap per day, 150 coins per booster, and ohThis game is one of the most frustrating games I've ever experienced when it comes to MTG. 200 coin cap per day, 150 coins per booster, and oh yeah you only get 5-15 for a win against the AI. If you wanna play with your friends you can, but you get 0 progress towards anything. Magic 2015 had a much better system for unlocking boosters, you get one if you win and don't have to waste your time trying to grind and get rewarded for playing against your friends. That isn't even the worst part about it, you only get 6 cards per booster pack. The developer made the game free to play, but it is most definitely a pay to progress title. I would much rather spend 15 dollars on the game and have the mechanics change back to how it was before rather than spend 2 dollars per booster. Yes, 150 coins is 2 dollars. I will never spend money on this game, it isn't worth it seeing how you only have a small chance of getting a good card.… Expand

It's most frustrating when you can't progress further because you're limited to drawing only land cards or monster cards with only 2-3 land cards and then get beat by the AI who tends to draw near perfect hands (even land to creature/spell ratio) every game. Gave up on the game when I got stuck in story mode, Liliana vs Raven. I was drawing lands with 2-3 creatures and then drawing a bunch of lands with no creatures or drawing creatures with 2-3 lands followed by a bunch of creatures for 15 straight games. Not sure if this was intended but it got annoying fast.… Expand
