Trying to fuse yorion + artifacts + control, brewing shit is fun as fuck.
>>484302982Nice, check out my Yorion control deck.
>>484304856very nice art.
>Midrange deck with 24 lands>With cantrips and many draw mechanics>Can't draw a single land 20 cards deep into the deck>This happens 3 games in a rowObvious forced loss is obvious
>>484302982Well, i had fun today.>>484304856Cool stuff.>bankbusterDamn, forgot this card existed, maybe i'll try to put in my deck.
>>484305402Thanks, there used to be daily deals for playable cards like once a week, now for the last year or so you're lucky if you see a good deal in a month.
I just realized that this shuts down most protection spells.
>>484316496>design hexproof and ward to counteract removal spam>design removal that just lets you ignore thosebravo
>>484316496Crazy pushed Mire's Grasp that has better synergy with Ethereal Armor.
Uhm arenabros, why does the Kaalia portrait look so ugly?
>>484323209Ashlizzlle uses it so maybe girls like it. The artist is some Polish chick.
>>484302331thanks for baking>>484304856>siege rhino in 2024
>>484316496They're turing the game into YGO where you need instant speed counters and open mana for your opponents cause they have cheap drops that completely shut down shit that's supposed to counter them, like ygo handtraps>oh you're playing lifegain, here's my cheap RDW counter you better have a instant speed removal ready or you lose>oh you're playing green, you better have a instant speed enchantment tremoval or your whole protected board dies
>>484326659sovl
>worrying about screaming nemesis We already have a solid counterplay for it once it drops, hell i already run it in my lifegain decks
>>484329837that card is draft chaff anon, no one is running that over go for the throat/bitter triumph
>>484331046I can see it being a sideboard option for things like Boros heroic and something you have to consider in Bo1 if you're running one of those decks. It'll also slot nicely into Braids decks.
>>484304856Good.

Sorry for letting the thread die. Either some janny banned me for 3 days, or my brother has been shitposting again
>>484353357Isn't Duskmourne sep 27th
>>484353357>>484353507Here 27thhttps://magic.wizards.com/en/products/duskmourn-house-of-horror
>>484353507thank you, never trusting mtgazone ever again
I think Duskmourn looks fucking awesome and I hope it's an excellent draft set like Kamigawa Neon Dynasty because I'd spend 100k gold, 20k gems and 10 player draft tokens drafting the shit out of it if t was.
>>484349848That pic looks like they just slapped some wings on a random piece they had lying around
Beware. Whatever the fucking purpose of these two coins is, if you click on them, you automatically spend a draft token.

PART 1To try and motivate you fuckers into finally GETTING GUD, I did my best to summarize MTG Arena's "Premier Play", aka pyramid scheme, aka tournament system.I might have fucked some stuff up and omitted a lot of other shit, so check the sources for details:https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/mtg-arena/mtg-arena-premier-play-in-2024https://www.magic.gg/events/qualifier-play-inhttps://magic.gg/events/qualifier-weekendHere we go.The Arena Championship - highest tier of play and rewards in MTG Arena. 3 per year. AC6 is July 13-14! We're currently in the qualifying process for AC7, sometime in Oct-Nov. AC7 will be very different from previous ones. Structure hasn't been announced yet, but player count is going from 32 to uncapped, and prize pool is going from $200000 to $250000. AC can also get you into in-person tournaments. Top 16 qualify for the Pro Tour, top 2 for the Magic World Championship.How to get into the AC? "Just" get 6 Wins in Day 2 of a Qualifier Weekend (QW).There is a QW every month - each 4 QWs feed into their respective AC. Every QW uses a different magic format.
>>484361267Getting into QW Day 1: Finish Top 250 in EITHER ladder the previous month, OR Get 1-3 wins in the previous month's QW Day 2, OR reach a cash prize in an Arena Open the previous month OR Get max wins in a current month's Qualifier Play-In (see below).QW Day 1 is Bo3, can only be entered ONCE, plays until 7 W's or 3 L's, rewards 500-12000 gems, and grants Day 2 Entry for 7 wins.QW Day 2 is Bo3, 6 W's or 2 L's, rewards 250-5000 gems. 1-3 W's gets you into Day 1 of next month's QW automatically. 4-5 Wins: same, but for Day 2. 6 gets you into the AC (note: once you are qualified for an AC, you can't play in any Play-Ins or QWs for that same AC).Getting into a Qualifier Play-In: spend 20000 Gold, OR 4000 Gems, OR 20 Play-In Points.Getting Play-In Points: 20 if you finish 251-1200 in EITHER ladder (being high in BOTH ladders does nothing). 1-4 for getting max wins in eligible Limited/Constructed Events (the ones that are permanently going on).For each monthly QW, there's a Bo1 Play-in until 6 W's or 2 L's, and a Bo3 Play-in until 4 W's or 1 L. They each give 500-6000 gems, use the same format as that month's QW, and reward a QW Entry Token on max wins.Tokens are redundant (you can only enter each QW once), and are only valid for THEIR SPECIFIC QW.Because Play-Ins can be entered as MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT, and give 500 gems for 0 losses, you can and should at least use these to turn all your play-in points into gems.
What percentage of games of fair magic exist if you remove games where you flood or have a draught/he same happens to your opponent?
>>484361518depends on the format. stronger decks and stronger formats have less of that because the mana bases are better and the non-lands include better flood/draught potential.the % is certainly not 100% in any case, but that's why every sane person plays bo3 exclusively.
>>484362204Don't be an idiot, bo3 is my format of choice but b03 doesn't reduce the chance, it "normalizes" it. Furthermore the bo3 lows are even worse. Feels worse to lose bo3 because you flooded out twice. Feels as bad if you lose one match and then flood the other (and vice-versa) except you spent more time to lose. The only saving grace is when you flood once but win twice.Land types for deck types notwithstanding, your opponent is also as liable to flood and drought as you are, regardless of the game type.So the point stands, what percentage of games (matches if you will) do you reckon actually end up being fair magic when floods and droughts are removed from both players.
>>484362204>mana flood/drought>brings up mana screw
>>484364024>b03 doesn't reduce the chance, it "normalizes" it. since I didn't say this and you claimed that I did, I didn't read the rest of your post.
This card is your friend. This card will never let you down. This card will stick with your through thick and thin.
>>484365529What if I don't play BG?
>>484365337>but that's why every sane person plays bo3 exclusively.You brought up bo3 you fucking dolt. I'm telling you bo3 is not relevant, by listing the how the issue affects b03 as well.
>>484365529>playing green
>>484365712well then you don't have a best friend in your mtg arena adventures
>>484366189let's see who laughs when Foundations puts Llanowar elf into standard for 5 fucking years
>>484367058I'll reassess then, much like I do with every set release. For now, my laughter is current.
>>484354692You know that's exactly what happened
how's the climb going, diamondchads?
>>484316943i kind of complained about this during MKM. disguise is retarded and fucks up the design philosophy of morph. morph is about hidden information, when you start saying some creatures are morph and some are disguise, that gives info on which creature you played when you say "cast a morph" or "cast a disguise." the purpose of disguise and giving morphs ward 2? because regular morph is too underpowered in the current meta and "feel bad" for newer players. morph was never constructed playable, with a few notable exceptions. trying to make morph fit in the current constructed meta by adding ward 2 was a fools game, even with ward 2 the disguise cards aren't really being played. so the only real reason they added ward 2 was for limited and to minimize "bad feels" for new players. and then, to deal with all the ward in the set, they printed a bunch of spells that say "can't be countered." so instead of tailoring the removal in the set to match morph like they did back in khans (made disfigure instead of just using an existing card, dead weight), they upgraded morph to fit the power level of current meta, but then as a result needed to upgrade the removal to fit the upgraded morph. MKM is an abomination of a set and would be my first choice of a deck to completely wipe from history if given the chance. except for flotsam//jetsam, that's a great card.
>>484316943>design removal that just lets you ignore thosethese effects have existed for decades, but thanks for the reminder
>>484365529Golgari is love, Golgari is life.
>>484371191usually cards that let you shut off hexproof are not removal themselves.
>>484371454

>>484376617>refuse to crush your opponent's memes with your sideboard cardsyou do you
I love how LoTR cards basically ruined any format they're legal in, as if we don't have enough dogshit formats in this godforsaken game
>>484369012well now I can't find a game. guess matchmaking cares more about rank than I thought
What does it mean? Lots of dragons? Shiro tribute?
>>484384081Isn't that Phelia?
>>484372958I knew that card would trigger the schizo.
>>484384081It means that they talked to various pros and former pros about what to include.

>>484389898just variance, sister ;^)
Is there any way to salvage this?Currently 0-2 and my assessment is that I'm low on midrange creatures and that 4x murder is too much
fuck off draftroon
>>484393697rest of the sideboard
>>484393697no clue, I wasn't here for that format
>>484393942Anon. Devious Cover-up is the best black card in the set, following only Vein Ripper.Sweepers are ridiculously strong in limited, in general. Just play with it in mind.
>>484393697>>484393942Why would you draft cover-up, be in the colors, and still not run it? Cut gorgon's kiss or cerebral confiscation, both are terrible. Murders are great, if you had more you should be running them too. Put in extract a confession as well.
>>484394415Deadly*. Boomer moment.
>>484394415I'll keep your advice for sweepers in mind, I'm new to drafting and mtg in general.>>484394553My reasoning was that I had enough removal for big creatures with the murders, and I'd deal with their small creatures with my big ones, so no need for the sweeper.
>>484395548people just don't hold creatures in hand like they do in constructed, due to sweepers being so rare (no pun intended). you, knowing you have a sweeper in your deck, can play around that by sandbagging until it's time to pull the trigger, and they'll often have nothing left.
>>484396110makes sense, I wish there was a concise guide with tips like this. Seems like everything is either telling you which cards from a set are powerful or "just play bombs, dude"I ended up going 2-3, losing the final game to a WB deck that hit me with 2x unscrupulous agent and 2x cerebral confiscation
>>484401182this is not specifically for limited, and the card examples are really old, but it's the quintessential free fundamentals guidehttps://magic.wizards.com/en/news/feature/level-one-full-course-2015-10-05

>>484406301how many posts do I need to make for you to understand that hexproof hasn't been good for years
>>484406710>moving goalpostsLiterally nobody talked about how it was good or bad, we're talking about what it does and how other things interact with it.
Would it work?

I love this nigga like you wouldn't believe
That Artisan event cured me of wanting to play MTGA.I brewed like 20 fun decks with unique gameplans and played nonstop.Now I never want to play any format besides Artisan/Pauper.When is the next event?
>>484417984https://magic.wizards.com/en/mtgarena/events
>>484417984>>484418352the decks in this future precons event (which is live btw) are probably gonna be the post rotation starter decks for starter deck duel
why does the white black one have a sweeper wtf
holy fuck the RG precon is so fucking bad.
>no alchemy shit in the preconsThat's kinda based of them not gonna lie
>>484424420feels like the powerlevel of the format in general is lower than the starter deck duels
>there's two midweek going on at the same time>you can get rewards from bothwtf I love WOTC now
>>484425794the RG one is particularly bad.>several one drops that are only going to be played T3 or later>terrible curve, only 3 of the 2 drops actually want to be played on curve>removal is 4 mana, sorcery speed, and dependent on your land count>no reliable ramp to cast the multiple 5+ dropsa lot of the others don't have these issues. there are still power disparities between the other decks, but RG is just a joke.
>>484426501BW has a similar thing where it has 4-drops and 3-drops that trigger on your 2-drops ETBing. At least it has removal and even a sweeper
>>484428327but there are enough 2 drops that also trigger off the lower power things entering, as well as enough 2 drops where you can go 2 drop on T2, 3 drop on T3, and then two 2 drops on T4. also, the 3 and 4 drops also trigger off of each other entering, so you can play the wispdrinker and then next turn play a screaming phantom and it still triggers. WB is actually a very strong, consistent looking deck. the curve tops out at 5, with the single sweeper. RG tops out at 8 and has NINE cards that are 5 mana or above, with few accelerants, few ways to NOT DIE before you get to the turns where you will be casting real things. and what's at the top of the curve? ghalta. what does ghalta do? puts other creatures into play from your hand. very little card draw and the need to put out ANYTHING as defense means you probably have zero cards in hand by the time you play ghalta. you are probably already dead by the time you get to cast ghalta, it being the biggest, baddest beater in any of the decks does not matter. the unironically should have put palani's hatcher as the final rare instead.
I haven't played for a while, is the game good again?

yo I might think of returning playing the game but I don't want to play standard and want to use my old collection, are there new formats without rotation? what's the best choice for me
>>484484186only alchemy and standard have actual rotation.all the other formats rotate whenever a modern horizons happens

is there anything more embarrassing than looking through your opponent's entire deck and still losing?
>>484365529>nonland permanentYOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE
Based midweek event gave me fourth Shelly
>>484499417You almost never need 4 thoughever
So I read that we will get refunded if a card gets banned. What if a card like Fable of the Mirror Breaker, which was previously banned in standard, now gets banned in other formats like explorer. Will I get my wildcards refunded if I craft them?
>>484505680I'm not sure exactly how it works. You only get one reimbursement for a card for the lifetime of the account, but what if you make a brand new account and craft a card that was already banned and it gets banned again? I don't know. Knowing wizards you won't get shit.
>>484499417useless unless you play formats which are degenerate beyond hope
>>484485530Explorer is a turn 3 combo format right now.Timeless can be fun if you like the idea of high power pseudo-legacy. You'll need wildcards though.
>>484507048The account is only four months old so way after the initial ban. >Knowing wizards you won't get shitYeah this is my fear.
>>484507280I do play standard yes
What are we thinking bros? I like how more cards now allow you to play exiled cards a turn later and not just the turn they got exiled
>>484361267>GETTING GUDyou are playing a game that is rigged from the ground up complete with spreadsheets telling you exactly how cards are weighted by the rigging systemand you still pretend this game is skill based? really?
>>484515702He would be dogshit if it had to be the same turn, 4 mana is a decent amount. Solid card overall, a beater that provides advantage even when removed is good.

>>484527931yes, congratulation is correctly reading my basic post
>>484515702it's good because unfortunately ramp is good

isnt it so cool and fun they removed any element of skill or balance from momir so now its just 100% a faggot gacha game where the algorithm decides if you can get a win or noti love when i get a vanilla 2/2 and my opponent gets a morbid opportunisti love when i get a flying 2/2 and my opponent gets a faggot alchemy card that can make you discard your hand and seek nonland cards (which is impossible in momir)such a fun and enjoyable time, thank you wizards for making a meme format, expanding on it with some cool ideas like actual main decks cards, and then scrapping that and rerunning the event constantly so nobody can have funfaggot game for faggots

>>484649576Don't get me wrong, it is still garbage. That was just kinda funny even for the opponent judging by the stickers he used.

It's fucking 4TH OF JULY FAGGOTS! Play some explosive shit or OTJ decks or uncle Sam himself will gape your asshole! You have been warned.
ARE YOU FAGGOTS READY FOR THE FIRST /mtgag/ EVENT? THE TIMELESS OPEN!The current start time is in roughly two weeks. The actual play date will be determined by the players, since you guys will have to play your matches. Decks must be submitted for other anon's prosperity. Lists WILL be hidden until the end of the tournament, according to the website at least. So play what you think will crush the tournament. Rounds will be BO3 with sideboarding.----------------------------------------------------------REGISTRATION IS HERE:https://aetherhub.com/Tourney/RoundTourney/30599----------------------------------------------------------Unfortunately, yes you do have to sign up for an account. I don't want to make another Google account to make a privatized Google doc and you losers need to know the in game name of your opponent to play against them. If someone has a better idea I'll honestly roll with that. The problem I keep running into is gathering both Arena usernames and the decklists, while keeping the lists private and the usernames public.If this event does well I will attempt to run future events for other formats. I'll fire the event if it reaches 6 players. If it reaches 5 I'll play, but I'd really rather not play my own event.IS /mtgag/ GOOD AT MAGIC? LET'S FIND OUT!reply to this post for any questions, comments, flaming, etc.
>>484632996many such cases
>>484663346I exclusively play standard and will be on vacation anyway but I hope you get enough signups. Maybe we can do a standard event next time
>>484663346>timeless Tbh im a brawl player but i'll see if i can throw together something decent, dunno if we have the numbers

>>484668056>>484664489fuck if this event does well enough I'll hold a vote for the next event's format okay.I don't want to talk that far in the future so if you want a standard event to beat up your fellow /vg/ posters, help this event do well.
>>484669274>help this event do well.best I can do is bump the thread. I only have one deck and it's in standard
>>484663346Whay about budget decks? How expensive is Timeless?
>>484675924Too expensive. This thread has a surprising amount of whales already though.There are some budget options available but I feel like most good sideboard cards are rares.A lot of shit that shouldn't be rare also is. Brainstorm, Lightning Bolt, Counterspell, etc
>>484676074I see, thank you anon
>>484663346I have a historic deck that i could probably adapt for the format, just gotta cook a bit
imagine not having 99%+ completion in sets lmao
>miss playing Artisan>take my Artisan deck to unranked Historic queue>3 games in a row vs the same tier 0 Boros Energy MH3 netdeckdid they get rid of deck weight or is every single person queueing for Historic just playing the same RW deck?
>>484681394there are no tier 0 decks in historic. and no i'm not going down this rabbithole again
>>484681394well thankfully I'm a good enough deckbuilder that my Artisan lists can beat top tier Historic/Timeless decks.sorry if any of you had to play me in the Artisan event

hey niggers, don't you care about Bloomburrow lore?Episode 1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCqhd3C0SSkEpisode 2https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQwc7H1yogQEpisode 3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8WGmDKMf7M
>>484681950>its going to become like yu giit's literally ygo already except you have troons instead of niggers playing and nigger cards instead of anime waifu cards being played
>>484682718I only care about which furballs are female.
>>484682718I do but I've only listened to the part 1 for now, i like to binge these, btw the way they keep playing the same music for the entire length of a video no matter what's happening in the story is very annoying
>>484682718>to fit in on 4chan, you have to start your posts with a racist slur!hello shill, no one cares about the shitty lore
>>484682718wake me up when Return to Tarkir releases
>>484685974thanks for the (You), fellow faggot!
>>484682718I already read the articles, because I'm not a zoomer.
Shouldn't this say "if X entered your control"? Did they forget about the ETB templating change?
not an arena card, but based as fuck
>>484687012>not working out while listening to mtg lorengmi
in wilds of eldraine draft, this card would be broken

>>484302331As a complete noob that just downloaded the client and doze off on the last tutorial match, does it get better after? Or should I quit before it's too late?
>>484699004you sound dangerously retarded, so yeah probably quit
>>484687267Probably
>>484698786Probably the teamup cards that he mentioned would be tribal glue. But it's already been confirmed in the story anyway.
new momir is the gayest faggiest fucking shit on arena, congratulations to the 6 people who farmed wins off me because wotc are FUCKING HACKS THAT MAKE GARBAGE. keep your 2 rare cards, i'm not interested in this faggot paypig garbage client anymore
>>484706973thank you for participating in our social experiment.
>>484699292at least he isn't violently transexual like you, sis
Momir was a blast, had tons of fun earning easy wins daily. Hope it comes back soon.
>>484695636>>“Destroy target creature” (a spell with only this rules text) gets a new mana cost>They're buffing doomblade yet again
>>484725770and that's a good thingfatal push should've been "revolt - destroy target creature instead"
>>484681394Gets absolutely shit on by Wrath of the Skies.
wtf i made a post and it got eaten. said i posted but never did. anyways, i looked up a username of mine and found a random site that had a bunch of my arena decks posted to it. how the fuck they get my decks?
>>484736123If you did well in events, wotc posts winning lists regularly. Also I think some from plat-mythic.
>>484736596nope they were brawl lists
>>484736123Your whole life have been a lie. Maybe you are actually a different person.
rizz bundle acquired
>>484725770I'm ready for "BB: Destroy target creature"
>>484736123What site? Stuff like untapped lets you see the cards your opponent used, so I can imagine something scraping together info from the same username on there to figure out full lists.
>>484742132it was mtgdecks dot net, not writing the actual site name because i think that's how my post got ate.

Why did they make it so attacking a planeswalker lets you draw, but not make 1/1s?
>>484760695Formatting issues I guess.
>>484760695Maybe they thought it'd be too much
The foundations banner from promo emails has Lili and Ajani so we're probably getting their reprints in the set, question is what variants
>opponent doesn't concede when I'm popping off with Nadu and watches me play out a 10+ min turnI had to just stop turning all my lands into hasted fliers and kill him because i felt bad for the king of bears. Could have gone twice as long since i was only halfway through my deck but i just finished the match and closed the game out of shame
>>484772905You have no shame
>>484773221I would have normally moved to crashing the game with scute like i usually do in the mirror
>>484682718I like it and I'm excited for the next part, doing a nigh shift when it releases so I'll put it on
>>484682718Wtf is their problem

>>484795039The main crew is decent and action is solid, not bad thus far desu
>>484682718>>484775842I haven't listened to any of the magic stories, should I start at dominaria united or is it fine if I just start with bloomburrow?
>>484803507Bloomburrow is the start of a new arc, though you'll probably want to read the previous stuff just to know background info like who Jace and Ral are, and what happened. Knowing general stuff about Tarkir would probably be useful too since it seems like this arc will be focused on it.
>>484803971alright cool thanks anon, ig I'll start with tarkir then
>>484801441the only blemish so far is ral's faggotry
>>484794118That's how any half decent ranked system works when you're near the top, the higher you are the harder it is to stay there. It's especially volatile near the start and end of the season, since right now everyone is ranking back up and towards the end decay hits harder due to increased activity from everyone trying to hit their goals.
>>484809505>any half decent ranked systemwhich arena is notthe problems with mmr calculations and how their jeets fucked up the code is well documented at this point
>>484771720sweet
Tried Throne for the first time today. Started in 2020, and have been a mediocre limited player on paper since then. Actually got 7 wins with Mono-White with red splash, but I feel like I was just carried by p1p1 Realm-cloaked and p2p5 Outlaws Merriment. Format seems alright, but there are so few players that I, in gold, was paired against a #3 Mythic for one match.
>>484821027Dead game dead general. Fuck mtg not takin from us soon enough.
the transsexual brigade is usually here to spam bump and samefag this lbgt garbage out of page 10 tho
>>484826059Bump it for what? Trio squad was just messing with you all as a joke now it’s just boring and sad.Be the change you want to see anon
>>484821027Yeah, old sets have a lot fewer players because the newbies usually blow their load on the shiny new stuff. The only people left are the ones who are good enough to self sustain their drafts through wins, or paypigs who reroll drafts to get the best stuff.
>>484826059>tranny obsessedBased!
Bloomburrow is kinda cool as a setting ngl, hope cards turn out good and usable
>>484831769thanks, troon
Ahaha, opponent had a super op Eldrazi deck but played very defensively and decked himself after drawing a million cards with multiple Unfathomable truths and Kozileks Unsealing.I literally had already given up and rage quit since my deck felt so outclassed and I had no hope of winning through combat, but then on my way to the bathroom I remembered that he drew so many cards that he might deck himself and decided to restart and check and was able to stall long enough despite tons of annihilator.Probably the weirdest and most random win I can remember.
>>484836297And funnily enough I usually don't rage quit, so if I hadn't been in a such a bad mood I would have conceded and lost without a chance of comeback.
>>484836297When are we gonna get that Lili avatar again, i need it
>>484825432I was watching Portugal vs. France
>>484836297He must be seething he lost that
I've been thinking about a simple deck with Hardbristle Bandit, ping Deserts, and Outcaster Greenblade, but there's not a lot of great synergy outside of them other than that 2+x/2+x where x is deserts black removal
transsexual mtg bumper
>>484316496thank fuck for this card. Finally blue and green trannies can fuck off
>>484855012Set mechanics just don't have enough synergy to function well as a deck now since wotc dropped blocks. Every new set have different shit leaving the previous one under developed. Sucks but numbers must go up I guess.
IM SO TIRED OF ELVES AND FUCKING GOBLINS HOLY SHIT
>>484862965Stop being good opponents for elf and goblin players then
>get to plat>haven't gone first in over 5 gamesI get it wizards, you want me to spend money
