Imo, any card game with “card rarity” is a scam. It takes all the skill out of the game and replaces it with privilege. Im all for deck building and complex card mechanics, but why why WHY would you ever made some cards less common? It’s pure greed and monetization, and that permanently turned me off of all similar media.
You can play the game just fine without the very rare cards. Pokemon has about 3 versions of all of the very rare cards in a set and the lowest rarity is generally easy to get. The illustration rates are the money makers.
