Ravnica Remastered draft boxes, priced at $150-$200, will be perceived as lacking value by the market due to the devaluation of individual cards into 'game pieces', unless they contain serialized cards or specific fetch/shocklands.
"eventually what you start to have happen is you have releases like Rica which be careful in those draft boxes collector only folks um you start to have situations where everyone says there's not enough value in the set there's nothing of desirability cuz all the cards and the problem is there's a lot of good cards in Ravnica remaster... you start to have situations where people start to say who whoa wait a minute how can a draft box be $150 $160 but all these game pieces aren't worth anything and if the draft box doesn't have any of the serialized cards and certain version of fetchlands fetchland shocklands wait a minute why should I pay almost $200 for a draft box"

As Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro implement changes to make Magic: The Gathering cards more desirable and chaseable, the 'game piece Army' (players who prioritize cheap game pieces) will become very angry and turn against the companies.
"Chris Crocs acknowledged it they're making changes now and now people are already starting to get angry... people are already writing articles how do I say it being angry or criticizing Wizards for starting to make changes... you're going to start seeing people turn on Wizard and hro they'll get very angry the more they try to actually make the cards desirable and chasable again you will see the game piece Army go after him"

In 2024, smart financial individuals will quietly exploit market inefficiencies, leading to significant and unexpected shifts in both player behavior and Wizards of the Coast's company strategy. These shifts will hit harder than people realize.
