Switching from Copilot $39 to Cursor $60 — does it actually make sense long term

Hello fellas, I'm here looking for real-life developer experiences using these tools (if you have no programming knowledge and you vibecode 100% of your work, I don't mean to be rude but this post isn't for you).

I’m currently on the $39 Copilot plan and I’m seriously considering moving to Cursor ($60), but I’m trying to figure out if it actually makes sense for the way I work.

I’m a developer and I use AI pretty much every day while coding — not full-time for 8h straight, but it’s a constant part of my workflow during the time I’m actually coding (generate specific code for a feature + manual review and adapt (ai always generates more code than needed)).

In terms of how I use models: most of the time I stick to lighter/faster ones for day-to-day work like sonet 4.6 or gpt 5.4, and only occasionally switch to the heavier models when I need more depth for planning or harder decisions (opus 4.7, opus 4.6, gpt 5.5). I’m not that kind of people that generates the full app with the newest top models and sticks to it for everything.

Despite not reaching the 100% of usage in anytime in copilot, the recent changes just doesn't fit to me.
What I can’t quite wrap my head around is how this translates to Cursor in practice.

For people who have already made the switch:

  • Does the $60 plan feel comfortable day to day, or do you end up thinking about limits more than you’d like?
  • Overall, you think is worht it?
  • Is the jump from $39 copilot → $60 Cursor actually worth it in real usage?

I’m mostly trying to avoid switching and then realizing a few weeks later that is the same as if i stayed with copilot.

Would really appreciate some honest experiences from people who’ve been using it for a while.

What do you think about the new Class Sets? Do they actually have a future in Wild?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been wondering what people think about the new Class Sets overall, especially from a Wild perspective.

First of all, do these Class Sets completely replace the traditional minisets going forward, or are they meant to coexist? I’m asking because I usually save most of my gold specifically for minisets, since they’ve historically been one of the best-value purchases in the game.

That’s also why I’m a bit unsure about these new sets. I can definitely see the intention behind them — introducing or reinforcing specific archetypes for each class — but from a Wild player perspective, I’m struggling to see how many of these cards will actually survive outside of those prebuilt themes.

Maybe I’m wrong, but a lot of the cards feel extremely tied to the exact archetype they’re trying to push, rather than being flexible cards that end up finding homes in multiple decks over time. In Wild especially, where the card pool is massive and competition between cards is brutal, I wonder how many of these cards will still see play a week/few months from now.

I’m curious what everyone else thinks about:

¿Are you planning to buy them?

¿Do you think they’ll have long-term value in Wild?

¿Have any of the new cards genuinely impressed you so far?

Interested to hear different opinions to spend part of my gold on this new class sets or pass on them.

Ty in advance, and see you in the tavern
