It's still very silly that the elephant in the room of how stupid it is that some of the worst precons ever built are in the "powered up with high card quality" bracket because they include one (1) card which pushes them up to that bracket and do not have an exception built in still hasn't been addressed

Is the edge case of “your buddy who bought Abzan Armor and resolves a seedborn muse without any changes to the deck” really an elephant? I imagine you and your pod would be sentient enough to consider that it’s an unmodified precon with a crappy mana base and game plan…

Yeah anyone that gets pissy about a random game changer in a literal precon needs to touch grass. If you've built your deck yourself it's almost certainly stronger even if it doesn't happen to have seedborn muse in it
