The Trading system is bad. Let’s fix it…

I don’t need to tell you why burning 4-5 valuable cards to trade for 1 card is a nightmare. BUT I have ideas to fix it:

Someone else mentioned a trade binder, this feels like a no brainer, that way, we can see what our friends are offering in trade. It feels like a fun way to (literally) share our collections and it makes it so people don’t have to venture to discord or other platforms to negotiate trades.

ALSO, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, let me acquire trade tokens in other ways. You can keep the “Obtain Items” burn system if you want, that can always been the fastest way to obtain the currency. BUT let me earn trade tokens with the PvP system! Giving me 15 experience per win is terrible and unless there’s an event going on I have no incentive to play. If you gave me 10 trade tokens per win (and 1 token per loss) I would play match making all the time!!! There is a vibrant pvp community for this game, people really enjoy it. Give us more incentive other than bragging rights when you aren’t running an emblem event. Please! I want to love this game, I want to play this TRADING card game. But trading, as it currently stands, is a dead feature. This is an easy fix and the community will love you for it. People spend more money on games they can’t put down, than games that they feel are unfair… just saying.
