Not only are the precons more competitive, but they're also astonishingly complex, so much so that even LoadingReadyRun were getting overwhelmed in their EDSC playthrough. The Doctor Who "Timey Wimey" deck, unmodified, is one that I'll only play as the first deck of the night because there's so much to keep track of that I don't think I could do it after a few games. And I've been playing since the 90s, so I'm hardly new to the game. I'd hate to imagine the experience most people who've tried picking up Magic from some of this UB stuff have had.
