I understand that @toocurious and I'm not totally against allowing just for fun players picking what level to play their fantom cards its just that I don't think we have near the free to play player base to do that.

For example what happens when the time comes when there's only two players in practice mode and one picks gold cards and another max? Do they both sit and time out or do they face each other leaving the Gold practice player being stomped?

Seems like potential for a bad user experience but if on the other hand everyone had maxed that wouldn't be an issue.
