I avoid them as much as possible due to the curling and bending and glare when playing with sleeves on them.

I tolerate them because it’s not worth spending more money on a non-foil when I pull one, but if I’m buying singles I go out of my way to not get foil.

It’s just not good quality and gives nothing to the card that I care about
