From the latest set, there are only 9 titles for the Player Profile, and only 5 of them are available to non VIP players.
Mind you, has anyone noticed?
This is practically an admission that implementing the Player Profile was a waste of time.
Player Profile lets you see at a glance how active a given player is in the game. Immensely helpful for captains.
I use the “Favorite Decks” quite a bit with teammates as well to give them deck ideas within the game…
How does it show how active a player is? I know a player with a complete collection who scores 90%+ every event who is under level 90.
It only shows you how much someone grinds or explores their collection. It also might give you a glimpse into their sense of humor or personality, but if you’re using it to gauge their potential, you might be throwing away a lot of good players and keeping a lot of grindy ones who lack skill.
To OP’s point, I was also disappointed in the lack of new choices — but I’m overall disappointed in what they’ve chosen for this feature.
@GrizzoMtGPQ I have been playing almost from the beginning of MtGPQ. While my collection isn’t complete by any means, it is pretty extensive. I am capable, when willing, to do 90% in any event but my profile is still in the mid 60 range.
I have had this discussion with leaders in my group before. The profiles, though nice to look at, don’t give you any indication of what a player is capable of or willing to do.
Waste of time? You are too kind
Again, only 9 new titles from ELD, 4 of them for premium players, out of a total of 230 cards in ELD.
