Why even have the price? Like I feel bad for missing the xp now on an already tight rewards track, but I can’t justify throwing 5 packs away either

It is not so much XP that you will be worried about missing it. It's more like just a checkbox for each deck. If you don't feel the play experience is worth the fee (and aren't skipping the fee by playing in the Open), I'd definitely recommend sticking to your usual play modes.
Hey are there rewards for the phantom sealed? Seems odd to charge 5k gold for a phantom event as is
A little XP, but no currency or cards. It's an opportunity to kick back and jam mixed-up decks for the whole weekend, not really a grindable mode. (To be clear since some folks aren't sure: you only have to enter the Open or pay the Sealed entry fee one time. After that, you'll keep getting back a token that you can use to re-enter the event as often as you want.)
Bunch of announcements for unique new stuff.
MIXED-UP PHANTOM SEALED EVENT OCTOBER 1–3
The April Fools thing is back...but for 750 gems / 5000 gold, and you can freely get new pools for the whole weekend.
Yay for Mixed-Up Sealed, but that system seems pretty bad compared to last time. Not only is it much more expensive but there is no incentive against constantly get new pools until you get something wild. Might make it pretty bomby.
October 28–November 5: Dominaria United Sealed
An encore? Possibly Alchemy Sealed, since the first mention of the Alchemy draft queue didn't mention it was Alchemy.
October 13–21: Planeshifted Draft: Streets of New Capenna
New Draft type! Maybe something semi-silly in the vein of the old Turbo and Omniscient Drafts?

This will actually be original Dominaria. We'll correct the text.
The automatic upkeep stop should be out next week.
now we just need a WOTC dev to come in here and condescendingly explain how the backend is actually working correctly and for several unrelated reasons, this purely cosmetic issue may be in concept for a fix Q4 2024
This is clearly a shot at me, so sure, I'll take the bait.
I try to be very clear about acknowledging when something is not behaving as desired. However, that doesn't always mean it is bugged - and while that distinction doesn't necessarily mean much to the experience players are having, it is a look behind the scenes (which players sometimes enjoy) at why that issue may not be as easy of a fix as players think (which players often do not enjoy, I admit).
I also try to be clear when an issue, even though it's not desired, may not be as high priority as other issues. The truth is that game development involves a lot of push and pull. That means some things aren't likely to be addressed or will be addressed later on. I certainly don't intend that to be condescending; it's just honest.
I can understand that it's not fun to hear that something you don't like won't change, or at least won't change for a while. Some people might still pr...
