Art looks bland.
.Youll be able to buy Scrolls for £13/15/$20, depending on where you live.
15 + micro transactions?
nice cash grab ... :-/
A generic fantasy strategy card game seems a little...underwhelming after something like Minecraft.
I played a little bit today. I'm really enjoying it and can't wait to give it the time it deserves tonight.
The mechanics are interesting, you have to sacrifice cards in your hand to convert them into energy, and then spend the energy on summons / spells. There are plenty of advanced card mechanics much like MTG (Destroy, Protect, Buffs, Enchantments, etc.)
You choose from 1 of 3 "Precon" starter decks, the other two can be purchased with in game gold or real money ($5 each).
Gold is easy to earn, doing the bot challenge maps I almost have enough for my second starter deck (5k gold).
Real money can only be spent on the starter decks or cosmetic avatars (all $5 each).
You can rent cards for up to 1 week for stupid cheap for use in your decks (100g, about 1 game).
The only way to add more scrolls to your library is to use in game gold, (or getting another precon deck). It seems pretty fair and the game runs fantastically (it's built in Unity).
Sounds fantastic I will download it after work today. So from what you have played you are not getting any pay to win vibes?

How deep is this game compared to other TCG? Is there as much to it as say, Magic or yugioh?
Art feels a bit uninspired but I would love to play a good online TCG
You're able to easily expand your library by spending 100g on a single, random scroll.
175g on a scroll of a specific type (Growth, Order, Energy)
or 1000g on 10 random scrolls.
that awkward moment when you think it was an elder SCROLLS game
It feels on-par with MTG, I never played Yugioh but I got really deep into competitive MTG and this is scratching that itch. I also haven't played any ranked games yet, which seems to be the focus of Scrolls.
It seems like it could be pretty good. Not sure how much I enjoy the whole units have a cooldown on how often they can attack instead of being able to attack each turn ala MtG. I suppose that's just something I'll have to get used to. Just seems like its an unnecessary way to slow the game down.
The only card game I've ever played was Eye of Judgement, and I didn't really even get very into that. I'm not sure if I like card games.

any suggestion on which scrolls i should buy?
random/decks/set cards?
I'm confused: your earlier post said you could rent cards for a week for 100g. Are these the prices for renting, or for buying?

and...... 7th post nails it.
Exactly what I was thinking. This is what he follows minecraft up with?
Do you remember those recent articles listing them in the top 10 developers? Yeah...
I know following up Minecraft can't be an easy thing to do, but...
This is all they could muster?
They have a ton of money, an established fan base, and a potential outlet to reach millions of players through Minecraft, and they go with a Facebook-y card game?
If they're not going to go all out and attempt to make something else as, in the very least, ambitious, as Minecraft, then why bother? Did they spend all their money on that fancy new office?
Just doesn't make any damn sense.
