I thought EDH would satisfy my casual interest in MTG. But it ended up being worse than competitive play because of politics, vague deck building restrictions for balance(brackets) and difficult to organize people to play.
I settled into boardgames(especially solo boardgames) last year to satisfy that itch.
EDH was so bizarre to someone who played Magic in 2003 or so, like “wait I need to care about my opponents feelings and if they’re having a good time? Why would I do that?”
I also went away from competitive scenes and found D&D suits me much better.
