Are you concerned about competition? Many online CCGs have rulesets capable of supporting asynchronous play (Might and Magic: Duel of Champions, Solforge, Sword Girls, Elements the Game, etc.) and Infinity Wars' devs have publicly announced that they will do it.

Notably Hex seems to have the same issue as MtG where asynchronous play is not practical.

Well there's a lot of difference in all those games, and they're going to attract different types of players. Just compare Sword Girls with Solforge, for instance.

Just as important if not more than competing with other games is competing for awareness. I've done surveys of what other games people play, and the majority of players know about Magic but are unaware of the other games out there.

So I'm not overly concerned but I have done my research and follow what the other games are doing.
