Brawl is going to be on Arena so I expect it to get popular.
It could even be a decent format.

You might be able to do this with like, some kind of Conspiracy cube format, but it wouldn't be that fun and no one would play it.

The foundation of casual CCG play is, has been, and will always be cognitive dissonance.
It fuels an entire industry of knock-off games where folks can hide from optimization via constrained information flow.
EDH actually helps out WOTC a lot by keeping those players buying magic cards instead of moving to some tiny company's shit game.

Or you can get the best of both and make shitty battlecruiser decks out of beta and legends cards just to make the table read. Cast Eureka and play Living Plane followed by Craterhoof and attack you with 14 beta Chris Rush signed Forests? I win even if I don't.

A format with limited actions per turn could be good, then you can play with degenerate shit and it's mostly fine. Would also keep multiplayer games flowing.
Like you only get to put 7 things on the stack per turn or something. Obviously tweak the number.

Back in my local meta pre 8th edition we used to play "Big Deck" basically was just giant stacks of Singleton's with no bans minus ante cards.
What made the format fun and prevented super expensive cards from being played was when you killed an opponent you could tutor their deck for a card and sign/draw on it.
My buddy had a door to nothingness deck that when he killed you with it he would offer to save you a signature if you signed the door instead thus trapping your soul.
Good times.

MPR cards always bugged me. They're not really magic cards to me, I do like the old states top 8 full art cards though.
I use Italian revised bolts since they are cheapest OG blackborders.
The MPR was something I picked up for cheap since it was beat to hell and I had some SC with the booth.

I had a real nice beta set i traded off just before they ended up being reprinted in M10 lol. I have a set of signed portugese FBB 4th edition ones I use now. I don't really play bolt decks that often though.

I get off so easy at GenCon it's ridiculous. The only thing my wife said about this was "Can I see em?"
