The Energy Mechanics - Failed Magic Designs

Energy was a mechanic introduced back in Kaladesh block. This mechanic quickly proved to be exceptionally powerful, though fairly controversial in the community. Most people in the community look back on the mechanic with ire, so today, we’re going to explore exactly why this design failed. This is technically a failed Mtg mechanics video, but since the mechanic was actually very strong, we decided to change the name to reflect that fact.
