While I understand that they may have reached the decision in the past not to offer such a product, I'm still always optimistic about outlooks changing. That includes the feasibility always having the potential to change due to finding cheaper manufacturing processes or an increased show of demand (What we're generating here).

Though the past may have seen this option denied, still no reason to not vocalize our desire for it. I appreciate the responses and just want to say this is one of the ways that I'm looking to share my excitement for the game. Reaching out to the community to talk about this great game.

Another option they would have had would be to follow the CoC model with a "highlander" core set. Yes, you still need multiple core sets to have a full playset, but at least you are not buying cards you do not need…

Furthermore, this would have hallowed them to include even more diversity in the core set, which the designers claim is one of their goals with each core set (although I do not share their appreciation for that specific concern).
