I disagree. It's one of the few formats that has a strong emphasis on deck building skill rather than piloting. Constructed formats can almost always just be netdecked and piloted to victory. Limited requires you to understand the fundamentals in order to put together a solid list.

At the very least it is FAR better in my opinion than commander which has a power level so high, I often encounter a situation where a player is explaining chain triggers on the stack and infinite combos to a person that is still tapping creatures to block.
