    The exclusive ally is going to be epic. Nearly all of the epic cards are game changers (arguments can be made for some of the weapons, but at least they all have a major impact). Furthermore, most people are only going to have one copy, so it probably wouldn't pop up in every game or have decks built around it. If it was extremely OP, it could just be considered invalid for tournaments, which frequently happens with promo cards anyways.

    Tsk,tsk,it's not nice to show off in front of others that had the bad luck to not know about the game as soon as you...it is very unprofessional.Either way,if the promo card is limited on just one copy,then it's just fine....i mean,if he is like an Aeon or something,he surely will not be such a game changer and the probability will be quite low for it do be drawn.I'm 100% that the devs will not OP it in any way.

I hope SOMEONE would be able to understand that.

    If there's a way to donate money or something and get it, im cool with that, but i haven't seen anything on the physical card order site unless i accidentally missed it.

    And surely you can understand why we want the digital epic card. If everyone played for free, then SE wouldn't exist would it?

    The physical cards are free in the sense that before they announced the physical cards, $10 would get you 1300 crystals... and now for $10 you get the 1300 crystals and physical cards... so you see how they are free?

    Though if the epic card is a game changer, then there will be lots of ppl claiming "I can't win because I can't get that 1 card..." so I'm torn on this issue. I suspect a comprise of only being able to put 1 copy in your digital deck would make most ppl happy...

    I believe the card will merely be strong but far from game-breaking. Perhaps a fairly cost-efficient weenie (to put things in context, erika for 4 mana or aeon for 5) that acts as a nice complement to any army.

    We see quite a few examples in M:TG, where the winners of the Magic invitationals were allowed to design their own card to be included in a future booster. Their creations are fairly potent (but often not in the 10/10 for 1 mana category; rather their usefulness are more subtle, are good enough in their own rights, and often require decks to be built around them to maximise their usefulness).

    Money isn't the problem...I could buy a lot. Again it's not the problem as I've already shelled $50 @ SE from the start & probably will more. People keep talking about currency = to shadow crystals. I get that. I'm just saying simply I can't really do much about because I'm having issues right now.

    So again, is there an option to buy shadow crystals/donate & get the card?

    P.S. Sorry, I just get upset sometimes about alcohol related stuff...I'm still upset a little bit about it and such

    @glencoce, sorry to hear about ur RL issues.

    First there have been no mention of the digital card. We are requesting for it, and of course comments like yours won't help

    Second, if you don't want the physical cards you can always eBay it. You are getting double the crystals worth bec of the bonuses. That means that you pay $10, you get $20 worth of shadow crystals. So even for those who don't want to get the cards it's a great deal now.
