I spent about 3 years trying to get into various tcg and drafts was easily the best. There are still try hards but they height is reading the release list so it’s basically “dude, we got a Dinoraxis of the Tyberior” “Hell yeah, there’s a rosaro here as well”. And then they play similarly leveled decks. Thankfully MTG is way better at intermediate levels then Pokémon or YuGiOh. People who play those games actively don’t want fresh blood the way they play.
