How about high-risk new rare card system?

[Jyiber]

I always liked the idea in old school trading card games you could wager your rarest card on the outcome of the match.
Then again, serious gambling issues run in my family...

But, what if there were a new class of "super" rare cards released that if you lost a match and your opponent wins it on a spin, you lose it?
Then a new system to notify you of such events would have be implemented, but you get the idea?
I don't know how much traction such an idea would get... but I think it's interesting.

Back in the old days MtG also had a bunch of cards that forced players to ante cards in their deck. This resulted in players taking out cards from their decks in ante matches because they simply didn't want to loose them.

Likewise, I think these super rares would be never be used in PvP due to fear of loosing them on a bad day.

The rare cards were meant to be super rare... until everyone started complaining that they were too hard to get and the top50 gave people farms and then zanz made the arena.

How about wagering any cards decided upon? Though it seems like it would take too long to start a match.

A problem is that something like this can be explored using alt accounts. Nymphs would be a problem, for example.

I hate both rare cards and gambling, so I strongly dissaprove of this idea. Sorry...
