STONKS Edition>Previously on Mount Gag:>>482098968>Latest NewsDaily deal for June 22nd is a draft token. You DID save 9000 gold - right, anon?MH3 is out - some rejoice, some don't carePsychic Frog Store is a SCAMPro Tour MH3 June 28-30https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/mtg-arena/mtg-arena-announcements-june-17-2024https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/mtg-arena/psychic-frogs-horizon-hideaway-on-mtg-arena>Useful Linkshttps://pastebin.com/QFA0hqaA>Free Codeshttps://mtgazone.com/codes/
Net Gold of both draft modes.Assumptions:>The gems from rewards are from 10000/1500 = 5000/750 = 6.667 gold each. If you're farming gems for the pass, they're worth a lot more. Specially if you do well on your token draft from the pass.>The rares and mythics you draft are considered to be worth nothing since wildcards are everything (note: bots will NOT pass you rares in quick draft)>The packs from rewards are worth around 925 gold. This is based on packs eligible for golden packs being worth 1000.
Thank you based anons for talking about the palantir in the last bread, this fits into my Ashnod deck like a glove.
reminder to rope anyone using psychic frog store avatars
>>483074774Fuck, no I have better things to do with my time than roping systemically.
>>483074774What else am I going to blow my extra gems from drafting on?
>>483076090mastery passes, more drafts, packs (in that order)also do those event things
Anyone else here completely ignoring mh3?
>>483076518>mastery passesAlready bought>more draftsI can only draft so much before it gets repetitive>packsHell no, I already have plenty of cards and wildcards. I legit can't remember the last time I actually bought packs or was unable to craft a deck I wanted to craft.>event thingsI assume you mean the Open. This is the only decent option, but I'd rather get something I can use regularly, rather than taking a stab in the dark at maybe getting some money.
>>483076941I literally put it in the OP, but yes
>>483076090this shop is a marketing test. the more people buy into it the more likely it is we see worse mastery passes in the future
who designs this shit?
>>483083923>alchemylollmao even
brawl is so fucking bad right nowi want edh, bring back the gathering in magic
>>483083923Flickerchads
>>483076941i think grist is cool but yes, i will probably never play with him
>>483076941wasted some wildcards to make terrible decks but i'm probably not touching arena after i finish the mastery pass. got other shit to do than get my ass beat by powercreep
>>483076941No, it's been pretty fun.
Why are you not playing pioneer lite?
>>483097674what?
>>483083923Why is Tesya frozen in ice
>>483102359She's a ghost after being killed by Trostani in Karlov Manor.
>>483071463>You DID save 9000 gold - right, anon?I'm too poor to afford the draft tokenAlso I think you mean save 1000 gold
>>483104119Save as in "keep in reserve".
>>483071463Entire 10% off?! Anons WOTC will go bankrupt after being this generous, I say we all buy gems to get the psychic frog shop access rn!
>>483102359She died but then she got better
this game is trash
>>483108043Honestly pretty expected for anyone in Orzhov.
>>483109639She's also apparently still demanding they bring her tibute in gold, even in death, peak orzhov behaviour.
>>483110716This would be before she died
>>483112471Yeah i know i was referring to this card art >>483083923 that's a plate of gold they're handing her.
I cant wait for triomes to rotate out so i don't have to play against domaintroonery anymore
Orzhov are just fantasy central bank
>>483071941Assuming i win games
>>483083923>who designs this shit?>Obzedat but betterBrawl card
>>483126089? the 0 win option is right there on the chart
>>483071941>>The rares and mythics you draft are considered to be worth nothing since wildcards are everything (note: bots will NOT pass you rares in quick draft)That's retarded. You can draft till you have enough packs to get all the rares. And even if you don't want to draft that much, 10-20% of the rares/mythics are still constructed playable
>>483133817>10-20% of the rares/mythics are still constructed playablenot really>You can draft till you have enough packs to get all the rarestechnically yes. However that is 1) A lot of drafting, you probably won't have much for constructed to use the rares anyway, and 2) Drafting gets a lot harder once you hit Gold and above, so if you are going to be drafting to set completion you have to account for lower winrates
is explorer just a trash format?every deck is like a standard deck that wins if it does it's busted combolike rakdos vampires is so underwhelming otherwise but if they cheat this guy in on turn 3 they just win
>>483135195it doesn't rotate and nothing stops the powercreep, ofc it's a trash format
Galvanic discharge needs to be banned in Historic.
>any other game has annoying draw the out lol scenarios>draw the out here, but don't have the mana to use itWhy do people play this shit game again?
>Don't mind me just trading myself with your commander
>>483145164Yeah, I don't need to read the card, just put more effects over the text box if you please.
>>483145612Here's the readable (not as cool) version
>>483087003I've played Brawl for a long time but I can't take it anymore. Nadu makes me wanna eat a bullet. Nothing beats it except itself, at least nothing in the same matchmaking bracket. It's somehow worse than the made up fake alchemy cards. Grenzo, Teysa, Poq, Nadu, Malcolm, and Tamiyo in the span of 8 months have hit the format like stage 4 cancer. Back to the standard mines.
>>483145915Thanks, I was criticizing the card design more than anything else, though.
>>483145965Just give them 2 months to adjust the bullshit commanders weights because that's how long it usually take them to fix the format so you have 1 month of fairly balanced brawls until the next set/alchemy drops and restarts the cycle
Why are all alchemy commanders just enormous amounts of bullshit? WotC can't design for shit.
>>483147000The alchemy cards are designed by the Arena team blame them.
>>483147281Lmao, explain Nadu then
>>483147517Either a last minute text change or they were smoking crack
>>483071941The thing people always leave out of their calculations for these comparisons is that you get gold back from quests while playing too. I primarily play premier but if you are only playing every 3 days or so, it's much easier to go infinite with quick draft since you will get back like 40% of the cost through quests alone.
>>483153503...it's a chart comparing quick drafts to premiers. you can do quests in either, why would I mention that?
>>483153503>using an outside source of resources in order to continue draftingliterally the opposite of what going infinite means, good job
crokeyz lost on day 2 again didnt he
>>483156097I'm 2-0, hold me im nervous
>>483154006>outside sourceyou wot>>483153810True, I worded it wrong, I meant these graphs give misleading conclusions since they are in a vacuum.
>>483076941Yes. I would have tried it if the draft were 4000 gold like the other phantom drafts, but there's no way I would pay 10000 for a draft of it. It was the same with LotR.
>>483158035The cards are more valuable, that's why the physical boosters cost twice as much!
>>483157927>you wotare the quests part of the drafts?do you get infinite quests if you do infinite drafts?no, and no. you can't count quests as part of going infinite.
When did you realise that who will win the game is decided based on the opening hand and the first one or two draws?
>>483158715Most people use "infinite" as a way of expressing that you can keep drafting forever in the long term without injecting currency or taking days off to play other formats to earn gold, that the average return from the draft exceeds the entry cost. I know you can interpret it how you are, that you can play endlessly all day long but that's just generally not what people are referring to with this term.
>>483159239>that the average return from the draft exceeds the entry cost.This is what he means as well. What you're not understanding is quests are not part of draft returns.
really the only point was "if you are good, do premiers, if you aren't, do quicks"

>Want to play a deck involving Urabrask>Both the mono red standard decks contain a bunch of cards that are about to be rotated out of standard.Fuck me man. I dont know how the fuck to play Brawl, and it intimidates me.
>>483135195>is explorer just a trash format?pretty much, I've been playing it for awhile and it sucks
>>483135195it's okay. to me it plays like Modern but worse, but there are some entertaining decks. The Tier 1 shit you'll play against is just... most of what you'll see.I've heard actual Pioneer is better but I don't have the funds for MTGO, so you'll have to tell me if you try.
This card is insane in reanimator decks, im genuinely surprised they didn't make it a rare
When are we gonna get another game like this? This was sick and fun and not a modern microtransaction ridden cancer
>>483189783Nope. Nothing will ever be free of the microtransaction curse ever again.

>>483189783New duels of the planeswalkers when?
>take a break for 3 months>come back and I can kill people in Timeless and Historic with janky energy decksOkay this made magic fun again
>>483076941No. It has two great additions to Elf tribal.
so i started like last weekopen all the free packs, got like 5 wild, 15 rares and a bunch of comun uncomun craft and used everything to make a brawl deck,mostly was on the dual lands, the commander was harbin the blue white soldier dude mostly because i really like blue white and soldier looked more fun then mage.how long does it take for me to get that amount of craft material back ? there was a precon on the animal set that looked fun so i was thinking of buying to play irl but i wonder how hard it will be to make a arena version of it when it comes out.im more used to master duel where you get like 70-80 packs a month so you can make a new deck every month or so, how is it here?
>>483216724dont mind me, just playing some honest magic

>>483222130It's fun
this is one of the most miserable formats I've ever playedwhat were they thinking?also how does a straight to modern set have so many trash rares?
>>483206981goddamn it
>>483217941you get about 10k gold per week. the best use of your gold is drafting, but if you're not willing to learn that, you should buy packs that contribute to golden packs. that way you get a little under 2 rare wildcards per week. :)
>>483222130I don't play the rigged modes, or pay for anything
>>483222130if it's rigged how do pro players manage to consistently maintain high winrates?
anyone got any decks with this dude?
When are they removing the "kill opponent creatures" daily?
I hate this game so muchwhy cant anything ever go right?out of all the answers my opponent had to have the most specific oneI even had the hexproof spell against any removal
Discard is filthy good in standard right now damn, and you anons were right this card is great he just does so much, although i still run sheoldred and investogators at 3 max cause although good discard sometimes isnt enough to win the game, especially with all the mainlands and tokens, and he dies to a bolt or virtue of persistence both of which are ran in so many decks.
>>483262693I wanna try but i fear i wont have enough wildcards for all the good bug cards
Just a few more hours until b&r explorerbros. Any hopes and fears?

>>483291026The other 50% duh
>>483290690fuck off whitenigger
So I started playin this game a month or two ago mom doing alchemy and made a few decks for that. Idk what the modes mean. What should I play and why?

>>483293015Formats, they limit which cards are legal, some of them are eternal and only add cards (bans aside) and some have sets rotate once a year or so. Play whichever you like the general power level the best.

Why is no one (here or on leddit or streams) talking about this new Arena Direct event? it seems exciting. Isn't this a first for Arena? physical booster boxes as prizes.
>>483312214I forgot to mention the most important place no one is talking about it, official MTG websites/news/announcements
>>483312214>Isn't this a first for Arena? physical booster boxes as prizes.no, they gave away "festival in a box" for winning a chaos sealed thing. you get nothing if you are outside the states, though. the only want to ship within the states.
>>483312214paper cards are completely worthless to meyes, I am lazy enough to sell them online
haven't played for an expansion and a half after i blew all my gems on tilted draftsis standard still FUBAR?
>>483312620>you get nothing if you are outside the statesI saw nothing about that in the T&C for this eventhttps://magic.wizards.com/en/news/mtg-arena/arena-direct-mh3-terms-and-conditions?utm_medium=product&utm_source=arenaIt even says it gets substitued for $250 cash if they are out of boxes. Seems like a much higher real $ EV than the Arena open for your digital currency.
>>483312930standard virtually doesn't exist anymore so yes, rotation in a month but it wont be saved
>>483313574hows the latest draft? some mechanics seem needlessly overcomplicated
>>483312930it's the only playable format, so no
>>483262125even at the top level, land screw or flood can destroy pro playersthis is good game design btw
>>483313927don't tell me you're a draftlet, are there zero playable sets?
>>483314243waiting on bloomburrow, i'm not drafting boomer cards lmao
>>483313697MH3? the consensus is that it is really good. I don't think it even has new mechanics but sure, a lot of cards are very wordy but that's the meta in this commander dominated world we live in.Personally I feel that it is just slightly above average, very tarnished by a few ridiculous cards (many at common). I think OTJ is quite a fun draft set too, personally I think limited is the only playable format.
>>483312476activate windows
>>483315376>MH3?i was talking about some of OTJ's keyword soup>limited is the only playable format.hard agree, standard is lobotomy levels of interactivity but I haven't had that much fun with limited since I'm always a tilt streak away from burning all my gems>the consensus is that it is really good.cool I might give it a go tonight
>>483262125They cheat in paper. Arena they mmr manipulate and win trade to the top of ladder. None of them have consistent results in mtgo.
>>483316449>I might give it a go tonightI unironically have 10 accounts. When I was bad I would buy the $5 discount gem bundle on a new account and play on it until I ran out. Now I just rotate through them and only play when they have full quests and can easily draft endlessly without spending anything. Maybe consider making an alt, it's really quick to make an alt, you can put in anything for the email and skip the tutorial, $5 bundle.
God i love being an orzhovchad
>>483315376>I think limited is the only playable format.this used to be true until they introduced play boosters...it's now just as fucked
>>483320029Right I quit shortly after they introduced that change too
>>483318304I refuse to spend a dollar on card games because the model is inherently scummy and the companies are all slimy and I'm poor.>t. recovered tcg addict multiple meta decks in hearthstone, LoR, mtga
>>483315376MH3 draft would be 10/10 if they had just toned down a few cards like chrysalis. Honestly that alone might be enough, most of the other best performing cards are that way because they support chrysalis.
>>483320714Is it as bad as P1P1 Cryptic Coat?
>>483320874On 17lands, chrysalis has 64.4% GIH win rate right now, while coat has 63.2%. The bigger issue is that chrysalis is a common, so it's not impossible or even hard to potentially grab two or three. It's not the winningest card of the set, but it's pretty close and it shows up extremely often.
>>483320874It is an insane card but the main problem is that it's a common, it's not crazy to see 3 of them in someone's deck and it's the second highest winrate card of the set.
>>483321541>>483321631How's the fixing though? Looks easily splashable to me...
>>483322361Quite easy, though it does work best in eldrazi focused decks.
>>483320614>refuse to spend a dollar on card games I can respect it but personally I know my limits, I need some outlet. Making a small investment to semi permanently have an outlet to satisfy my gambling addiction without paying was worth it. I have tried to totally reject it entirely before and other vices would always spring up in its place. Good luck, I think you will need it since you came here at all.
I just can't get any better. I made a list of the main mistakes I keep making. Things to focus on. Two turns into game 1, it all goes out the window and I regress to my retarded self.
At this rate, how long do we have until WotC printsRHaste, trampleThis spell cannot be countered. If this creature would leave the battlefield, it instead doesn't. Damage from this creature cannot be prevented. 100/100

Volatile stormdrake is retarded in brawl. Stealing someones commander for 2 mana is backbreaking. If your commander is expensive it is just a removal that gives them a little flyer in fucking blue

Hows pic related for a deck?It relies on getting synthesizer out and finding ways to get artifacts on the field in the meantime. Im looking for some suggestions, currently feels bad lower end of the curve but higher end feels great. Still get BTFO by board wipes but drawing for cards kind of alleviates that.
>>483409601..is this standard? why so many 2 ofs and one ofs besides indecisiveness, of courseunfortunately if you bring this color combo to standard you will only face UW control for 90% of your games :)

>>483532947I mean yeah, you have the ability to play 100/100 creatures. Even in your contrived scenario, that's not the part that makes the card strong.

starting to play this game is one of the biggest regrets in my lifeI will forever avoid anything RNG dependant in my life.>MH3 quick draft>keep getting nothing but garbage rares all day and confusing signals>barely managed to get enough playables and avoid the total disaster>3 times in a row I face <=#100 Mythic players with insane decks who also go firstand there is nothing I can do about it because "RNG" is the perfect excuse for this kind of unfairness.I would laugh it off but you actually have to pay entry for draft which makes this frustrating. A video game shouldn't have to be this upsetting. This is the only game I've ever played where you have to pay2play.

So how do you get these Big Score cards?Are they just in Thunder Junction packs?So they just decided to randomly add 30 different standard-legal mythics to a pack with no actual change to the pull rates or base set mythic count?
>>483547339it was supposed to be a standalone miniset like Aftermath, but people apparently hated Aftermath. They also cut a bunch of cards to make it fit.
>>483547660Unless I'm misunderstanding something, they still just simply tripled the amount of mythics in the pack with no other changes, yes?Was this well-received?
>>483547660>>483547789It's annoying that they ,made them all mythic when some of the definitely shouldn't be.
>>483547789Assuming your buying packs from the store its something ridiculous like 1:35 because you need the rare to upgrade to a mythic which is 1:7 then there's a 1:5 it upgrades to a big score card. You can also get lucky and get them from card rewards from dailies and yes everyone absolutely hates the system since opening 100 packs from the store you would be lucky to see 3
the literal only thing that magic has over competitors is that people accept best of 3 as the best way to play. And there's STILL people in bo1 queues, kek.

I only draft and they don't seem particularly rare or overpowered (relative to a lot of regular rates/mythics) so it doesn't affect me. Also not sure why you autists cry so much when the price of one is the same as any other mythic, 1 wildcard, you shouldn't be opening packs to hunt for specific cards for your constructed decks anyway.

>>483559730I've simply been in the Bloomburrow waiting room. Came back just for it.
>>483558305A majority of Arena players play Constructed, not Limited. With Constructed being WotC's focus when pushing Arena.Don't forget that Limited is pay-to-play while constructed is free.30 more mythics means you need 120 more packs/wildcards than usual to complete the set. Don't forget that 1 mythic wildcard costs US$5. It also dilutes your chance of pulling any one given rare/mythic when opening packs.Remember, you can find out all this information in Arena's Store tab or by checking WotC's wildcard, so no need to bait for answers.
>only standard streamer is some guy with tits, cleavage, and a voice like tony soprano
>>483559148>Reading comprehension Most people are indifferent to it, it doesn't affect their lives significantly or their enjoyment of the game.
>21 lands in deckThis is your reminder that the game is rigged to hell and back. In all modes.
>>483561487>30 more mythics means you need 120 more packs/wildcards than usual to complete the set. And what is your point? There is no incentive to complete a set. You are conflating constructed players with autists who chase meaningless check marks in a game for no good reason.Just because there were more mythic cards added in the last set doesn't mean the average constructed deck uses more mythics than previous sets (and thus needs more wildcards) or that people have more time to play a higher quantity of decks.Virtually no one cares, stop trying to gaslight people into thinking everyone is on the sides of you fringe autists who think collecting every digital card is some how respectable.
>>483566535Having access to more cards gives you an advantage by opening up new avenues of deck building and giving you the opportunity to test by playing with decks you expect to go against. Remember, someone has to experiment in the first place to come up with list you netdecked.Additionally, with how quickly new cards surge and wane in value, it's difficult to know which cards are objectively good or bad without the above. You could sit around and wait for tournament results, but with that same logic, you can simply wait forever since anything you craft today might be irrelevant next month.And this is all assuming you're using Wildcards, with Mythic wildcards being the hardest and most expensive to come across. You get a majority of your R/Ms through opening packs or drafting. With Big Score, your chance of pulling any one mythic goes from 1/20 to 1/50, meaning a bigger Mythic card pool does, in fact, affect most players.The above assumes you're trying to force one (1) deck in one (1) format. What happens if you want to play multiple decks? What happens if you want to play more than one format? What about the Standard/Alchemy rotation come next month? If you're posting honestly (are you?), then you can see how this is a legitimate problem.
>>483566386damn, that's right. I almost forgot
>>483566386>I didn't get the random permutation I wanted therefore the game is rigged against me or something
>>483568891Yes. Having things with 1% odds happen in 33% of your games is not normal and should be called out.

it is really weird how every single post in this thread is one person saying the game's fucked and then 5 shills coming to the game's defence. no wonder it's been a dead thread for so long.
>>483570124they always pull the same little trick>oh it's rigged specifically against YOU huhso disingenuous and faggoty
>>483570124some people are mouth-breathing retards, some aren't. makes you think
>>483567187Again, you are making a huge unfounded assumption that the average constructed deck (whether netdecked or simply 'experimenting') uses more mythics than previous sets OR that people are playing more different decks. I just don't see any evidence, you are just scraping at the barrel of arguments because you care about collecting sets for the sake of it because you are neuordivergent to put it politely and think the game should be catered to you. Protip: the harder it is to collect sets, the more special it is to do
>>483570124it's really weird how all the timmies and schizo retards who hate the game and think its rigged continue to play it even though they're not forced to and then proceed to have a meltdown on 4chan when they lose to garner sympathy from their fellow timmies
>the shills accidentally followed the exact same pattern even with the post that was calling them out for itkek. these indians are earning their 10 rupees a week.
>>483558305>see guys artificially making a bunch of cards mythics and shoehorning them into a set is a GOOD thingStupid faggot
>>483572669You're talking to literal employees of WOTC. Leave the thread. Let it die again.
>>483572669Ok I lied, I actually play like 90% limited and 10% constructed and so far I have found mh3 has been a larger drain on my mythic wildcards than otj and big combined, it seems to have far more relevant mythics. The only people who sperg over big destroying the game are collector autists, they just push the 'you need them to compete' as propaganda.
>>483570993>huge unfounded assumption that the average constructed deck (whether netdecked or simply 'experimenting') uses more mythics than previous setsMythics are not interchangable. You cannot replace an Atraxa in Domain with a Pest Control even though they're the same rarity.So even though both Atraxa and Pest Control cost one wildcard, they are not equal.Wilcards are a limited resource, especially mythic wildcards. How do you know which mythics you need for your deck? If you have access to more mythics, then you can find this answer yourself. If you're a netdecker, then redeeming mythics too early runs you the risk of being stuck with Pest Controls instead of Atraxas because you misread the meta. And what do you do when you're out of WCs?The most common way to get the specific Mythics you want, regardless of how many you're running in your deck, is via opening packs (either by purchasing or drafting). And your odds of opening the specific mythic you need (remember, mythics are not interchangable), becomes diluted the more there are in a given pack.>that people are playing more different decksHaving the option to gives you an advantage, either by allowing you to pick a different deck that better caters to a certain meta, or giving you testing experience. Even if you disagree, this is ultimately a secondary point in a long list of other points.>you care about collecting setsI do not and never said I did. Remove this strawman from your mind and actually address the points you're replying to, if you're honest.
I managed to steal a terror of the peaks with Eriette! This shit happenes so rarely doe as all the expensive auras either already steal creatures or are wincons on their own, stealing other permanents is neat tho.
>>483575036MH3 was a larger drain on my Mythic wildcards than every other set ever released on Arena combined (normally just a draftgod but had to make like 40 Mythics to brew with in Timeless).And as a draftgod the bonus sheets are annoying because they add too many rares to drafts.

Okay, listen up foxworth22.I know you're in this thread, I guarantee you're one of the trannys that attempt to breathe life back into this dead game/ dead thread general.When someone spams "Your Go" at you, the correct response is to mute them.If you decide to attempt to spam it back in response (which you could only do for a couple turns) and max rope every turn, you're gonna have a bad time (as you just did for 55 minutes). Even so much as missing critical land drops b/c you're an easily triggered fuckwit and the timer repeatedly fucked you even harder than I did.I use an auto clicker, by the time this game was done I auto- clicked "Your Go" 11,254 times. Just mute!Better yet foxworth22, next time you play against an obvious "Island, go" opponent, maybe you should just concede, seeing as your trash- tier Grenzo deck is severely outclassed and you never stood a chance in the first place.>Btw, I had a blast. I used 13 counterspells, 5 bounce spells, a stifle on your fetch land, Gearhulk/ Sublime Epiphany shenanigans, Invoked your Immortal Sun, got you down to 2 life and then stopped attacking just to see how long you'd hang around. In other words I digitally put my fist into your asshole repeatedly, sometimes sideways. Next time you see Baral, concede and move on.Even better yet foxworth22, just uninstall and kill yourself.

Oh yeah I"m gathering. Magically.
I've played MTGA since the closed beta.I played over 19,000 games last year alone (almost all brawl, the occasional limited).I've played paper magic since the 90's and still play to this day (with friends, not at LGS with they/thems and the typical losers with acne and poor hygiene).I still play MTGO and routinely play on cockatrice and Xmage to meta- test.I understand WOTC is a for- profit company.What I DON'T understand is why the blatant, obvious game rigging in MTGA. So blatant that they have to ban you from plebbit/ twatter/ their own forums for even mentioning their "algorithm". >Make a mill deck? Forced repeat 160- card deck opponents.>Make a RDW deck? Forced repeat lifegain deck opponents.>Make a lifegain deck? Suddenly people are playing leyline of punishment/ ferocidon/ roiling vortex/ knight of dusks shadow>Make a counterspell deck? Repeat "can't be countered" cards.>Make a elf/ goblin/ merfolk/ other tribal synergy deck? Forced mirror- matches & removal.dek opponents.It's a paper card game. The math is solved and has been for a very long time. Any manipulation is immediately noticed by a player who plays both.>"Sorry, we can't be transparent about MTGA because people will abuse it. Make sure to check out the Secret Lair!"Niggers of the coast deserve to be hit with the same style lawsuit that epic got regarding loot boxes. >MTG is fun and great for everyone!

Artisan was so much fun bros
>>483699705Yea was fun hope we get pauper next
why did wizards give a minor fallout 3 character way out in the boonies of D.C. the best dick-sucking lips I've ever seen?
>>483712869NOO my heckin narrative how magic doesn't do hot women anymore, AIEEEEEE!
artisan was gay I hope they do another precon event
This is my homebrew Artisan deck. All about getting a shitload of value off ETBs and recurring creatures from the graveyard. It's been working well for me since there's basically no graveyard hate and it's resilient enough to aggro thanks to all the little bits of lifegain until I stabilize.
I only got 4 hours of sleep last night because I can't stop brewing Artisan decks
>>483717179I only got 1 hour of sleep because I can’t stop playing Elden ring and edging

ROTATION WILL SAVE STANDARD
>>483725416No I just need a break and the gooning is good for my wrists. All the feet in the game is really what sets it off though.

>>483730868>We might see lightning bolt reprinted into standard
>>483730868Very little actually changes with this rotation. You have to remember that Bloomburrow will be the first set actually designed with the three year rotation in mind, meaning the last four packs have already given us late-season replacements for what's leaving.The only deck that really "suffers" is Domain from losing the trilands, but you can play just fine without it now. I guess Esper Legends loses Raffine and Dennick but we honestly have so many good cards for those slots that it'll be business as usual.The only meaningful cards rotating out are Emperor and Farewell.
>>483735921Never. WotC considers bolt too strong for Pioneer. Fuck, they consider it too strong for Historic.Bolt is basically on the Reserved List as far as ever getting printed back into Standard.
>>483312214>Why no excitement for Arena DirectAnecdotally, there is surprisingly very little overlap between people who play Magic IRL with physical cards, and people play on Magic Arena.
What's the best Yawgmoth deck?
>>483737950Which makes sense since WotC seems to think people would spend as much on MTGA as they do for paper
Behold, the most non disfigured mtg woman
>waifufag is still here and still obsessed with trannieskek
>>483747603would
>>483748931
the arena tournaments were infinitely more fun to watch than these stupid fucking in person pro tours
>>483736826Domain should hopefully be dead. There is no reason to play esper without Raffine, Emperor and Wedding Announcement. UB will be the way to go, and WB midrange will probably die. Temur combo should also die without the Cappena lands. BW control will lose Emperor and Deluge, which are pretty big hits. Mono red, BG midrange and convoke should remain in business.
Is there any easy way to check how many times and when exactly was there a draft event of a particular set? I want to check how many times Amonkhet and Kaladesh returned to see if there is any chance of KTK returning (AKA the best draft format ever)
>>483754596I think you can expect something around once a year for each set
>>483748931thats why i posted her
>>483755919;_; around six months of waiting it is igoh well
reminder that exercise makes you better at card games
Okay I'm doing some research into seeing if we can do this and I think I'm ready to do the first/mtgag/ Un-Official Official Tournament.First up is Timeless because MH3. Reply here if interested and if we get enough people who are willing to play I'll start setting up the logistics and finding people to test the private matches to see if they work again. I'm also going to link this post from /tg/ so if you're from there and interested, please just reply here for now. Again, this is just a post to double check interest before I waste my time with this.
>he doesn't have Full Control permanently onuhm...bro? did your opponent pay for that information? didn't think so
>>483757721sure
>>483757721>not standardyeah i'm out
>>4837580141)I often forget to pass2)I straight up dont want to waste my time 3)It would make me look sweaty and that's embarrassing, especially if you lose
>>483758729ngmi
>>483758729>embarrassingwhat's embarrassing is playing your small creature and instantly letting your opponent know you have a Cut Down in hand
>>483757721I'm quite new so I'm gonna have to skip this one since I only have standard decks
Lol I have to say MH3 premier draft is quite nice for rare drafting. Often I don't even have to take poor limited rares the first time I see them and still get them, people seem to be quite tryhard here.I usually get 11-13 rares/mythics and still have a decent enough deck to get 4+ wins(with draftsmith).
>random eldrazi and other retard greedENOUGHWhat is a good aggro commander that doesn't put you in hell queue? Or does every cheap, aggressive commander do that?
>>483730627Did you have Kumano out?
>1 match win away from mythic>opponent is playing either esper or golgari midrange>both of which are the hardest match for my deckEvery fucking time. I know I'm playing a janky aggro deck but damn it bros...
Does anyone have the "bannable simic 3 drop" card design from the THB days?Had something like "five plus lines of text, draw a card" on it.Feels relevant, for some reason.

THE IDEA
>>483757721finally. lets do it.

vivien fans confirmed for unhinged psychopaths
>>483763795oh yeah, probably
>>483789797Thought so. That quest only cares about opponents' creatures dying. You'll still make progress from them sacrificing or if they cast a depopulate.
>>483757721I’ll do it but only if we all only use the starter decks. And we stream it while I edge off camera

>>483795924What the fuck? Can a bit of water really do that?

>Brawl will forever be goodstuff piles because the game has horrendous card weighting issues.It could be really good if they at least tried a little bit harder...
>>483812049noooooooooo, you do not understand, a card like Zenith Flare is super unhealthy to the format bc you can't really interact with cycling opposite to let's say Nadu :^)
How well was Quartering in playing MTG?

>>483824975>the normal season pass is still right thereyou don't know what replacement means
after 20 games, Myrel finally untapped
>>483824975And you're basically paying $15 so you can get one draft coin, a couple avatars, sleeves you still need to grind for.Wich kind of monkey in a suit at WotC business department even thought this was a good idea?I can jerk off a better idea than this shit.

Nashi, the son of the Planeswalker Tamiyo, has vanished through a mysterious door. There's only one clue to his whereabouts: a glitchy, warped recording of a new world full of terrors. Inspired by horror media of the '80s through the modern day, you'll join the ensemble cast of Niko Aris, Tyvar Kell, Zimone Wola, Kaito Shizuki, and the Wanderer as they fight for their lives on a plane unlike any other.In their journey through the House, the rescue team will encounter many of the spooky inhabitants of Duskmourn: Magic's take on a modern horror plane, combining creepy aesthetics with the epic worlds that players know and love. But even in a harrowing plane like this, there is always a light of hope.Overcome impossible odds, discover terrifying new entities, and survive the night alongside your friends in Duskmourn: House of Horror when it arrives on September 27 at your local game store, online at retailers like Amazon, and elsewhere Magic: The Gathering products are sold.
>>483841141oh it's Kaito and Wanderer for the umpteenth timeso neat :^)))and a tranny and a nigress! wowza!
ROOM CARDSThat's strange; this room wasn't here before. In fact, the House seems to have a mind of its own! We're still trying to figure out why (and how) this place keeps changing, so we'll share more closer to the debut. For now, why don't you take a look at these rooms?
5 FUCKING YEARS
>flavor textYES! YES, WIZARDS, YES!
>>483841760>this one looks GB>other one looks WB>article mentions that the room keeps changingI'm gonna go out on a limb and say that they're gonna be pathways that can transform if you do sth or if sth happens, maybe even alternating every turn
We're already getting foundations spoilers
>>483842836so it's going to be 4 main sets + a basic/core set + a supplementary set (Baldur's Gate/LotR/MH3) + 1 remastered set a year?
Why would you actively play the worst version of MTG by playing Arena?
post yfw they put fucking Wandering Emperor in Foundations
>>483843096well where else am I going to play Brawl?
>>483843096Fre
>>483843031this one "core set" is gonna be the core set for at least the next 5 years.
>>483835119This should only work when your opponent hits it
>>483843104God i hope
>>48383511999% of decks don't gain any life. sideboard card at best
Nice non-rotating format WotC.What % of the cards being played do you think were added to modern in the last 2 years?
>>483844434ashlizzle looking good
>>483844439This, it's one of those cards that will get praised to high heavens until the set drops and then it will turn out to be a sideboard option at best, especially with all the card we have yet to see, two whole sets and rotation will change the format drastically.
Waht are we thinking bros, sideboard shit or a new maindeck removal?
>>483845139come on, bro. sideboard, and only if somehow boggles gets put into standard.
Kitto, could be good for decks that sac their own stuff

>>483850251Gonna need some better 3 drops, the current ones aren't enough imo.
>>483850721sentinel is insane
>>483850395shut up and CONSOOM
>>483848908How many creatures, etc with regeneration do they print nowadays anyway?
>>483851063they just don't wanna reprint God references, and you know it
>>483850843You mean this one or the WOE one? They're both good, but the measure of how good green creatures are is still "how well do they fare against doom blades?" and they're both just alright in that regard. It also doesn't help that one of the best other options is trailblazer, who doesn't get the card draw from either of them.
>>483851362WOE one is a meme
>>483851314
>>483851490Going up a card (or half a card, anyway) on ETB and being able to maindeck graveyard hate is pretty solid. Sandstorm salvager looked interesting too, but again they're all doing their own thing and don't really synergize.
>>483852013>being able to maindeck graveyard hateanon come on
>>483852407I didn't say it was the only option. I would say frillback is absolutely not good enough though.

>>483860712first of all, obviously i meant 99% of decks in current standard. second of all, it was a 3/3 menace that pinged your opponent when either player played a creature.

>>483862181seems they want to move to a monthly release schedule
>>483865348That is ridiculously, almost nobody will be willing to keep up

>Grenzo fell off the face of the earth since Nadu is the new hotness in brawlDidnt expect Grenzo to get powercreeped after a month
>>483867089probably also because stealing Nadu cards isnt super useful
>>483867089Grenzo is still good i just haven't seen a Grenzo deck in days, maybe people moved on to MH3 commanders idk
Mommy Maria.
>>483870142TETAS

>>483888904but anon you already have all the reprints in Foundations...right?
>>483889963I have singles because of brawl but will be hard to keep up in standard if i need full playsets of cards from the set
Do they fucking want MTGA players to burn out like paper players? Nobody's will buy into this shit and people will play with what they have, meta will be all over the place as most people won't have so many new cards
Bros my wildcard stash didnt even survive MH3, i will never keep up..
>Will be stuck being a brawl player because too poor to play standard
>>483891039just do your dailies, anon :)
You guys understood they want to make the frog shop thing a permanent change now right? They're just beta testing that shit with MH3 till they switch to monthly releases
>>483888904my bad. it's actually 3 sets in 3.5 months :)

>counters the ring>counters every eldrazi>counters leyline binding etb>counters all the elemental etbsThis is probably the most underrated card of the set
>>483893052what about Nadu, anon?
this is actually fucked up
>>483893851Hopefully the red version of leyline is good

>>483893052wtf they powercrept stifle
>>483895243castlevania is kino, hope we get some cool vampire cards
>>483895387imagine still running adversary
>>483896268she's unironically better than SSS outside of prowess decks
>>483896658so she is better than whatever SSS is, outside of the only monored deck that people play anymore? ok i'll take your word for it anon
>>483895741NoIt doesn't counter activated abilities
>>483884573Jesus what the fuck
>>483892112Why would I need wildcards when all of those sets are draftable?
>>483842729the plane / house is divided into 5 zones (color pairs?), and the rooms within each zone seem to share themesit's going to be kino, bros
>>483905317well after further reading, each zone is clearly tied to a single color, not a pair
What meme brawl deck can I build around this fucker?
i've been pondering quitting for about a month and a half now since i'm burned out of the grind maybe this shit wotc if pulling this year might be good for me after allanyone has a good grindy game I can play after work to recommend? preferably one that can be run in a shitty laptop.
>>483907605i dunno anon maybe run some creatures that get better when you add oil tokens to them :)
>>483908284Golgari has only two good oil creatures and there's no enough oil creatures. Other than adding other types of counters and proliferate, I don't know what else.
>>483839410>need blue to activatehrummg i guess
>>483908541Villages have a very low opportunity costs as long as you are running creatures (they are untapped, and a bunch of good lands are rotating). i'm optimistic
we are going home, gremlinchads
come on bros, one more thread
>>483908541More narrow than the castle, but a higher upside for the decks that can use it. It'll be interesting to see how viable they are, I thought Maro said they weren't going hard on tribal but there's already a bunch of tribal cards.
>>483917838Its kindred. Please use the correct term.

>>483893851Doesn't help lifegain with the most important thing it needs, resilience against removal. It's shit. Lifegain nowadays is usually more about the number of triggers more so than the amount of life gained, anyway. Maybe if there's some support in the set for it, but it's not going to do much otherwise.
>>483893851I hate every leyline card that gets played if you open with them. Doesn't matter whether they are good or not.

>>483891453This won't sell as well as they think it will
>>483891453Greed is one hell of a drug
>>483924646Implying you'll have enough mana to bring it out and hit it yourself on turn 3 or that a lifegain deck won't be orzhov hitting you with discard and deep cavern bats stealing your shit and god knows what else they might get by the time this drops
>here, buddy, get full domain on turn 3 (2 once lLanowar elves release)
>>483953945Er... I should've posted the version with the remionder.
>>483953945domain on turn 3? oh no, this will almost powercreep the domain on turn 1 possible with leyline or the domain on turn 2 possible with triomes or grazer+dryad the domain on turn 3 possible with a myriad of landscool card though
It sucks that Duskmourn cards seem to be on average stronger than Bloomburrow from what we've seen since the latter has cards i like more and id like to collect but that'll feel like a waste as the next set drops just a month later and will probably reshape standard, I'll just drop the game if this is the new normal.
>>483957763Bloomburrow's a Core Set (the set that kicks off rotation) so it was always going to have a below-average powerlevel to set a baseline for the next two years.But since the rotation change, Bloomburrow is also the first set actually designed for a three-year Standard, so it's probably expected to be doubly weak.
>>483893052counters storm too.goated sideboard card.
>>483941934>>483948239Foundations is a newbie set not for entrenched playersA lot of the cards will be things long time players already have in their collections so they can easily skip it
>>483842604>exile >that mana costThis is literally a white card they recoloured black
these seem pretty good as far as non-rare lands go.Stuff like this usually comes in tapped, like the ONE spheres.And only the W and B one sacrifice. Unlimited Surveils and Haste for two mana? Seems good.
>>483958192Newbies get fucked anyway since they definitely won't be able to keep up with how fast new sets are coming out unless they spend tons of money.
>>483959998I dunno, decks like Esper or Domain stayed viable 100% of their lifetime and only the rotation is stopping that. And this new set is apparently going to be legal until 2029, so they don't have to worry about the latter.
>>483959054>have to memorize which 4 types the land synergizes with>oh you used oakhollow village? too bad, the creature you played was a lizard which is not affected, you just wasted two mana for nothing>red land is sorcery speed and green land isn't, both buff creatures"accidental" cheating with these lands will run rampant in paper drafts and even online the having to memorize the cards (or read them every time you see them) will be a huge pain in the ass
>>483959054>the houses kinda look like frogs>doesn't affect frogs
Why are we getting more duskmourne spoilers than bloomburrow?
>>483961343I'm assuming WotC has very little faith in Bloomburrow (maybe because you can't force diversity into it?) so they're sweeping it under the rug and treating it more like a bonus set even though it's a full core set.Duskmourne releases a mere month after Bloomburrow while every other Standard set historically has gotten three months.
>>483961343Wizards knows that the furry set will sell but is worried about Duskmourne because their Murder Mystery House set failed and now they've got a Spooky Scary House set coming up that no one gives a shit about coming a month after the set people do care about.
>dude playing tamiyo counterspell in brawl gives me the sleepy emote then concedes
>>483961423I think bloomburrow was supposed to set the new standards powerlevel but decided to release foundations to set the powerlevel of standard for the next 5 years instead
>>483961343Permanent spoiler season
