Convince me to not waste my wildcards on this shitty historic merfolk deck: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/6761256

>Simic
>Runs low land count thanks to Shoreline and Cenote scout
>Kiora, the Rising Tide is there to finish the game thanks to exploration milling
>CoCo because why not
>Only removal is Run away together because of my low curve and ETBs.


In theory to me it sounds synergistic and fun to pilot but I have this feeling that individual cards are too weak and payoff is too small for it to be worth in in 2024.

PSS: I know this is digital/Arena which you guys hate but I'm also trying to get my mom into magic so help me out will ya? She wants to play something "competitive" but also loves collecting things so she might pick up cards if she enjoys the digital format

Hedron is bad, but far for the worse, it also came out when we still had delve in the standard so it was playable with cruise and dig, so getting the one in exile was pretty easy

This is the actual worst alt win con. Awfully designed and leads to terrible play patterns that just waste time.
When someone tries this it just leads to wasting time and rolls 30 dice for 20 minutes.

Who else really hates planeswalker cards?
>>
>>94408092
Your not going to get many honest answers because hating planeswalkers is one of those opinions which has become a "based oldfag" opinion so even people who like them will say no to try and look cool.
Personally it was a design space that was going to be cracked eventually, but tying it to the faces of the game they were trying to push as important and cool, led to rapid power creep which cannot be walked back easily.
>>
>>94406339
I used to use them to make records of my existing decks, but now I use archidekt.
>>
>>94408092
Don't inherently dislike them because of the nature of the format but I'd rather not play against a Superfriends deck if I can avoid it. Sure is fun seeing a retard adjust dice for 5 minutes every turn.
>>
>>94408331
Sure, there's some people just parroting memes, but that doesn't mean the oldfags were wrong.

I don't totally despise them, but even so I don't think they're good design to start with and they've only gotten worse over the years.

I like planeswalkers because I pretend its the old lore where I am a planeswalker and these are my friends who will do small tasks for me but will abandon me if I ask too much or if they get their ass beat too hard.
Only some are fun to play in an actual game. I prefer the ones with "win the game" ults that become a little side game of "protect the win con".
I do not like to play against planewalkers. Especially flash Wanderer or any Teferi card but especially HoD.

Is there a better trio of targets for EU than
>Omniscience
>Enter the Infinite
>The World Spell
?
I've seen Mastermind's Acquisition replace The World Spell, but that seems worse since you can find Omniscience but you still need to mana to cast it afterwards.
World Spell guarantees you Omniscience on the field, the worst case for you is if they shuffle ETI, but in that case you choose not to read ahead and you hope to hit some other bomb from the top 7.
Is there a combo that simply wins on the spot?

Edgar Markove is still a great limited bomb. A haste, first striker that makes itself and all tribals bigger with each attack. Wins the game by himself if not answered.

>>94411228
Edgar needed to be reprinted is the main thing and for some reason they were extremely reluctant to put him into any fucking precons. Things at mythic especially tend to not be considered as much for limited play, they're more printed for constructed play, even if they're just reprints. And, yeah, he does just kind of destroy limited sometimes.

Oh hey Arena is doing this thing again. For 30 dollars you can get two foundation booster boxes delivered to your door.

You just have to play some best-of-one sealed and get 6 wins before 3 losses. And even if you only make it to 5 wins you get your entry fee back so you can try again.

It's easy money if you fancy yourself good at the game. You ARE good at magic, right?

The only problem with best of one is a mana screw or flood deciding the outcome and never being able to have a proper clash of decks. If you could just automatically start the game with 2-3 basic lands of your choice in hand then best of one would be the purest form of magic. Sideboards are stupid. Just my opinion.

I was about to say flood/screw decides limited games more than bo1 but then I read the rest and that sure is an opinion

Maybe I'm not seeing what you are thinking.
But you can't -2 Ral until after you enter your main phase, which is too late to copy any triggers from the Saga.

Could you provide an order to what you are doing?
>>
>>94416669
>Ral -2
>Cast Founding
>Cast Return the Favor with Founding's 1st chapter, targeting Founding's triggered ability
>that cast triggers Ral's -2 and copies Return the Favor, which targets the other Return the Favor
>repeat last step until opp is dead
The question is, does RtF fizzle immediately, or does it sit there on the stack with an invalid target for long enough to be copied by the copied RtF?
I think it doesn't fizzle until it tries to resolve, and it never tries to resolve because you keep putting things on top of it.

You can make a budge angels deck in standard.
Just run 4 Giada and fill the deck up with a decent angel curve, white removal, and a potential lifegain package. Plus Herald of Eternal Dawn if you want to get memey with it.

It's actually incredible how OTJ seemed so paralysingly afraid of doing literally ANYTHING with its own genre space. High Noon is probably the only card that feels appropriately 'western-y' in tone, everything else is just "hey, look, hat".

>>
>>94419096
Isn't spree an additional cost and thus able to be cast? You would have to pay {1}, obviously, but I think it could still be cast.
Even if not, finding some other "copy target spell" off a Beseech the Mirror sounds like it would work instead, as long as the "targeting the spell/ability as it's still resolving" idea works how I want it to.

>>94419222
When an ability or spell makes you cast another spell, it stays on the stack while you decide the targets for the spell of ability it put there, so yes, you would be able to do that, just not with a spree card.

I feel sad my opponent made a good play but couldn't figure out MTGA interface
he responded to my Boom Box with a Return the Favor, copying the triggered ability
but I had only lands and artifacts, he had lands and a creature. His copy had to target a land and a creature, he kept mousing over my artifacts. He could have effectively stone rained me for 3 mana and instant speed (targeting his own already doomed creature), but just wasted the card+mana for nothing and blew up his own land

At its heart its a tempo deck. It gets down a few threats on turns 2-3 and leaves up interaction, tries to protect them or disrupt opponent, and then runs completely out of gas and cannot make card advantage
When it does its thing it shits on normal interaction, but its also vulnerable to whiffing its pieces being lined up, or getting stone broken by graveyard hate. If they have a leyline and you don't have a floodmaw, you cannot do anything until you draw one. Djinn is a 0/4, oculus can neither be cast nor cheated in.
