Power Creep Concerns

New 21 Dec 2022 Asked by nothingbutland-blog 42 Comments

History has shown players like powerful things and lower powered sets or sets that appear lower powered have weaker player appeal responses and purchase patterns. Does this mean that powercreep is inevitable and at some future date Moxes will be made obsolete? Especially in an eternal world can player expectations be met without bringing the game full circle with everyone having Black Lotus Channel Fireball as their deck?


We’ve been making Magic for almost thirty years, and power creep has not overtaken the game, so I think we have a handle on it.
