Set rotation imo
Is the new set going to be released in tins or packs(like priests) or box packs(like Texp)?Also is the new brigade cover both sides? The only difference to tell it apart is the cross or dragon on the card.

I should have finished my set rotation article. It works.
I disagree. LCGs never outsell MTG and MtG uses set rotation so I say go set rotation route I would play.

I removed my post. I apologize for not responding more kindly to preposterous statements. If it helps, I actually did laugh out loud when I read the comment I was responding to.
I fail to understand how an LCG model would be superior unless we had a new start point. Pardon my ignorance but in an LCG all printed cards are viable for tournament play? If that is the case then it appears the problem isn't with either distribution model IMO, it's with the fact that some of the older cards in redemption are either outdated in their wording or they are too strong. If a new format were to be unveiled (With the idea in mind of maintaining an unrestricted format that is like the current play style) given our current setup wouldn't a ban list be more effective?

We could do a Reboot block which has only cards from IJ up and have traditional Redemption which all cards can be used in just a thought.
I would not be opposed to a reboot. Especially given the new card format in IJ, it could be the aesthetic mark of a new start.
Given the 90+ unique cards in I/J plus Rob's 200+ card set, a reboot block of this type would be roughly the size of Unlimited + Prophets + 1/2 of Women. This is plenty of cards for a viable game.

Maybe we the players could help draft a potential reboot set we could use as alternative?
The selling format would obviously have to be different though then the planned TexP style packs for the current set...
