Dun mind if I tell my opinion.
Basically, I feel that Magic is a great card game. Started playing
it on 4th edition (that time, it's real hard to get a pack as sold
very fast). However, when it comes to Alliances, stopped buying as
seems that all the rules it included are strange and not so
intuitive as 4th edition. Furthermore, there is nothing creative
with the abilities of the other cards. Thus, interest in it had
died and had given away all my cards to my closest
friend.
