"aazadan said: I've seen a lot of new/casual players lately complain that board wipes are unfair. How do wraths poll with the segment of the playerbase that finds counters unfun?" ---- "Wraths have a place but development has felt that place needs to most often be greater than four mana." So is Mass Calcify the new normal? Do new players dictate what they know nothing about?

The costing of mass creature destruction has nothing to do with new players. In fact, costing in general has nothing to do with new players.
I find that having no answers to a heavy aggro deck is even more so unfair. If a newer player knows he’s going into a match against a control deck they should understand that over committing is suicide. Work around the board wipes, magic is a thinking game and not one where you just dump your hand and go ham.
