By creating a voucher shop, we ARE solving the problem, not kicking the can down the road! We are using vouchers to give unique access to exclusive items. That's the point!

I'm very curious as to the whole 'cosmetics release' comment. If I remember correctly, from listening to you on THs, there already exists multiple skins of every card in the CL set? Possibly even Rebellion? I understand your desire to make skins REALLY cool by giving them utility, but I would point out you guys are also missing a huge opportunity to generate much needed revenue or provide huge token sinks. Sometimes the simplest solution is best. The community has made it very clear over the years that they are hungry for cosmetic skins and will gladly buy them!! By not releasing the CL skins while CL is in modern, the team is missing a golden opportunity imho.

I think you guys are SO creative and have incredible visions for what SPL can be, but it's too easy to get caught up in wanting to make every project a huge and complex (albiet REALLY cool) thing. But this makes things move too slow since the resources are not available to do ALL of these things to the level you want! Releasing things in stages (as you mention you guys do) could be REALLY beneficial for things like skins/cosmetics. Have the CL skins just be cosmetic! Give us battle backgrounds that are just cosmetic! The community will be happy to consume them and you guys can release them however you want... sell some for company revenue, use some to BURN DEC, sell some for vouchers, put some in reward chests etc etc etc. When you have time to give cosmetics utility, THEN add utility to the next set!

I have heard you point to the fact that the Alpha/Beta skins did not sell well, but to be honest (and no offense to whomever created them) they do not have the appearance of a cohesive set, don't really match the SPL 'artwork branding' you have developed, and the skins are not really at the level of the original art on those cards. The CL skins are COOL, we've seen examples. Comparing the old set of skins and CL skins is comparing apples and oranges.
