That's true!
But outside of the USA it's not sustainable. The problem isn't buying the box. If they were still $130 like they were when I first started playing, I'd actually do this.
The problem is Wizards has let things spiral out of control with pricing. If cards kept up with inflation in my country they would be about $190 a box now. But they aren't, it's around $290/300. That's the problem.
The new "Commander Box League" format is more evidence that Wizards has no idea the problems with their own game.
In the USA it's entirely possible people might participate in an event like this. If you were going to buy a box anyway, why not?
In the rest of the world however, the game is already suffocating under its costs. Yes I enjoy playing commander but there is absolutely no chance I'm going to spend Three Hundred Canadian Dollars to play, more than that if there is an entry fee.
Yes I understand it's just another format and there is no requirement to participate, and I have zero intentions to do so. But the fact that this is a thing they think I might do says a lot about how they view their game.

Exactly. None of it should be this expensive.
I actually much prefer 60 card formats to be honest. But I've not played one with any degree of seriousness since 2010, because even back then the writing was on the wall with pricing.

"Three hundred dollars for an event is good actually"

Every once in a while I remember Splatoon exists, this time because the announcement and update, and I boot the game up.
I proceed to have the most fun I've ever had in a competitive game.
Three weeks later I forget it exists again, until next time where I will be once again shocked at how much fun I'm having.

By far my favorite character in the AAA gaming industry is Randy Pitchford.
This man has one of the easiest jobs in the world. All he has to do is sell Borderlands, a game that practically sells itself. And yet consistently he fucks it up so badly that we know about his piss fetish.

Just clearly heard an AI voice do an ad on the radio at work.
That was bizarre, but then I thought "wait, is this the same ad again?" Nope. Two different ads in a row with the same AI voice.
And then it happened. Three, then four ads in a row with the SAME voice over. Completely interchangeable.
I have zero idea what they were trying to sell, and I never will, because I can't even tell when one ad ends and another begins.

I can't help but be forced to notice;
American culture is arguing about which piece of media is the Best™️, instead of enjoying multiple things.
