Ever find it interesting how UB cards in Standard are now allowed to be stronger than Modern Horizons cards?
>>96946303> "what's that? people are complaining about all the strong and powerful cards that we're putting in all the straight-to-modern sets? Alright, no more modern sets. put all the broken shit in Standard now."
>every single one of the Limited streamers I like to watch has been playing cubeI just want to watch some booster drafts of real setseven the Standard streamers have been streaming cube
>>96946342Why watch when you can draft them yourself? Go to Xmage or Tabletop Simulator and draft some sets
man so many stores have gotten out of selling mtg singles this is getting kind of crazy. wotc spent decades building up this ecosystem and now it's tearing it all down to become some cross between the pokemon tcg and weiss schwarz.
>>96946661>man so many stores have gotten out of selling mtg singles this is getting kind of crazyMy LGS doesn't even run Magic events anymore. They used to run prerelease but the owner recently mentioned that with Spiderman, he just can't take on the risk of running prereleases and having them fail.A healthy, sustainable juggernaut of high-brand-loyalty market value has been sacrificed at the altar of Amazon quickbux and FOMO scam artistry. It would be tragic, if it was not intentional and motivated by rapacious greed.
>>96946661>wotc spent decades building up this ecosystemThey didn't build shit. That's why they are not reacting to it crumbling because they have no fucking idea what was there. It's the same with video game properties being mishandled.Only this year they started to bribe stores with a booster box if they release their shopify sales data. This year. That means for the past 30+ years they have no fucking idea how cards are being sold and resold. Of course, when they have this data they will realize they need a taste and will start reprinting cards except the game is totally fucking dead and all they're going to see is $1500 Tifa promos selling and realize they need more of that shit.Like it makes sense why they keep reprinting the same stupid fucking legends as promos over and over because they have no fucking idea if they are being played or sold.
>>96946693>They didn't build shit.Literally fuck off, you retard. WotC did an incredible job of being THE SINGULAR keystone to LGS culture throughout the 90s and 00s. You are simply and completely fucking wrong.
>>96946700What the fuck did they build in the ecosystem? They just shit out product and measured the dollars. I don't know about D&D but Wizards employees are not allowed to participate in sanctioned Magic events, which means they don't walk into a store and have any idea what the fuck is going on. They pulled regional store reps 20 years ago and those guys were just phone calls before that.Every fucking thing inside the Magic community was built by someone other than Wizards. The fucking Pro Tour wouldn't even be possible without Judges led by king dickrider who also gave Wizards EDH. The onus is on you to tell us what the fuck Wizards built in the community, when the fuck did Wizards do anything for anybody in the store that didn't involve a cash transaction?Do you remember the shitshow that was the Helvault? How they fucking lied to us about how the premium ones were randomly sent to stores when in reality they were sent to big fucking stores in California and Seattle? Half of Standard quit right then at my store because nobody could fucking trust them ever again and because Avacyn was such a baffling shit set.
>>96946303Set power levels have been irrelevant forever because everything is designed for Commander, which is Vintage in power level. Nadu and Vivi were designed with Commander in mind for reference.
Is this game beyond salvation? Can Lorwyn heal what UB killed?
>>96947068You already know it's too late for anything to save this game
>>96947068lorwyn will be cool and all but… look at this and tell me there is any hope left.
>>96946889Only if you're a filthy commander fag. Pre-covid I was still playing lots of draft, and standard, and pioneer was my primary format.
>>96947090>Pre-covidanon ... pre covid was 6 years ago ... that's literally forever
>>96947119Maybe if you're like, 19
>>96947068No.
>>96946733>What the fuck did they build in the ecosystem?Please describe how you think dozens of people showing up to a game store on a weekly basis, driven exclusively by WotC's efforts to establish a healthy culture for its players, would somehow not qualify as an answer to this question.
What are your hopes for tribal with the new lorwyn set? I only hope for some cool shapeshifters that I can add to my zombie deck :(

>>96946303That's an old Modern Horizon card. The newer one is much better.
>>96948004>emblem on +1what were they thinking
How do I stop myself from wanting to be Liliana's mindless zombie husk? She hasn't been in a set for too long and I miss her, they don't make the goth waifus like they used to.
>>96948290>he thinks they actually think about the slop that gets churned out for coommander
I miss when Magic was fun.
>>96946342set draft is mostly dead. cube is on mtgo half the year, but there are only six or so standard draftable sets per year and they are only worth drafting for the first week. now they are exporting this concept to arena (which is not mtg but reminds us of it) to erode draft even further. there are also the structural changes to set design with the bonus sheet and massive changes to the design skeleton that make set mechanics and thematic identity irrelevant.the point is to make all magic the same regardless of the format so you can never escape and imagine a better way to play
>>96948673>they are only worth drafting for the first weekcan you explain this further, I don't play mtgo
>>96947965I wish the exec who thought this was a good idea get some really fucked up STD.And the set to crash harder than Spooderman shit.
>>96946661wizards has been fighting the war on singles since 2013 at least. their reprint attack wasn't effective enough so they amped it up and made the complete back catalog obsolete and started printing new incompatible cards. wizards has already reclaimed a lot of the previously sold value held in now hollowed out LGS collections.
>>96948701card prices fall off the cliff once manatraders and cardhoarders get enough playsets to rent out, which they do before the first weekend the set is out. after this the return on drafting is so poor that the player pool evaporates, so even if you were willing to pay out the nose the experience is still bad with a lot of waiting. I don't play at the LGS but it doesn't sound any better in paper; lots of shops can't fire drafts anymore
Rate my cat aggro deck. Its been pretty good in unranked.
>>96947119>covid was 20 years agoI don't feel so good
>>96947068Given that coomander players are fighting tooth and nail against Lorwyn and trying to ensure it bombs, no.
>>96948290As usual, they weren't.
https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/i-opened-2-900-of-avatar-collector-boostersWould you do the same, anon?
>>96948882This shit infuriates me the most because coomander players are going to bullshit protest one of the few real sets of 2026, because their fake format might become slightly closer to the real game in a way that doesn't matter, and their autism can't handle it. It's just going to validate WotC's belief that in-universe sets aren't worthwhile and Lorwyn wasn't worth releasing with all the extra work it took.
>>96949050T is game is so cooked is unreal and all thanks to the Cummander Crew.
>>96948290>Well we did it that one time with the 6-mana Chandra and people loved it (they didn't)>So clearly we can halve the manacost and make the emblem better and give the planeswalker hexproof

>>96948290the same as with the chandra plus emblem
>>96948882Why would commander players fight against Lorwyn? I play commander, go to drafts... and I loved the old set, it was perfect for tribal decks, giants, elves, goblins, faeries... there was great mechanic, persist and wither, it will work miraculously in commander decks using proliferate, or lead by Maha or Massacre girl, I imagine.
>>96949699Because they think Lorwyn is causing WotC to conspire to change the hybrid mana rule.
>>96946342I would argue that cube is more 'real' Magic than Through the Omenpaths.
>>96949727Eh, it's casual format, nothing is stopping them to discuss in their playgroup and decide how they want to approach the hybrid mana. The next set, Strixhaven, is full of split mana cards too, like Blade Historian.
>>96949835Don't tell that to Coomander players which are planning to boycott Lorwyn if the hybrid mana change goes through.
Am I crazy or is this going to be really good

>>96950212squidward is in a magic card now so he can post free
>>96946229New schizo theory the Ixalan vampires aren't just based on the Spanish but also the Aztec Gods. Their philosophy of sinners sacrifice themselves to them for redemption is also a core tenet of the Aztec religion. Their is quest to Ixalan is based on the Aztecs coming from the north until they found new land in Mexico. Elenda is based on Quetzalcoatl who is the head godand modern people believe hated human sacrifice. According to Aztec myth Quetzalcoatl created a race of humans but they strayed from the divine teaches so they were turned into monkeys but Quetzalcoatl still loved them so he cast them away. This could signify Elenda's relationship with the Spanish. The Aztec stand-ins don't worship gods and instead worship dinosaurs.
>>96950294>squidward is in a magic card now so he can post free... I concede. Carry on, AIDS.Honestly the video was great.
>>96950344One problem with that theory would be that it'd require WotC to have unintentionally made white people into gods of the natives.Which given how they handled Thunder Junction is actually quite plausible. Nevermind, carry on.
>>96950189ackshually, he does make a good point about shit starting earlier, though I'd argue it started around Kaladesh standard which saw multiple bans since the days of Cawblade and it barely got better from there.

sages of /tg/ i seek your advicei am trying to build a cube and i want the rakdos theme to be life-drain aggro. my vision for it is a combination of effects/payoffs concerning- paying life- dealing direct damage- draining life- preventing life gainI haven't picked out many cards yet but I was looking at a couple like Skullcrack. In my search I couldn't really find a BR gold card that can serve as a "signpost" for this theme. Can anyone help me out?Picrel is along the lines I'm looking for but it doesn't really work as a signpost unless the *entire format* has Start Your Engines in it, which I'm not really into.

Yeah, now I know magic aids is even more based, he's for certain a 100% pureblood.
How to win:>draw n pieces of removal, where n = opponent's threats>draw k + 1 threats, where k = opponent's pieces of removal>hope random manascrew doesn't prevent you from playing eitherSo fun!
>>96951526if you don't like it go play chess
>>96951526I mean if you don't like traditional magic you can play prison shit like lantern or stasis
>>96951533I just don't get it. Why not just reveal your hand immediately and see who won? Why the extra steps? There is basically no possible strategy beyond>threat>removal>threat>removalin 99% of games.
>>96951553bluffing is a skill
>>96951552Those qualify as threats.
>>96951553it's a board game dudedo you get pissed when you lose monopoly too
>>96951553Read some theory about poker, retard-kun.
>>96951569I just don't play monopoly, because monopoly sucks.
>>96951555A skill that is all but meaningless in Magic. The removal piece will still be in your opponent's hand. There is no way to wait it out or lessen the blow, unlike in poker. All you can effectively do is throw threats at removal until one sticks.
>>96951578you might try exercising this "not playing" strategy with magic too in that casemaybe try playing chess
>>96951586I do play chess, go, backgammon, and bridge too. I'm just bummed out. It's a sad feeling trying a game and finding it's basically go fish with extra steps.
>>96951553Because there are more factor than just removal vs threats. Wraths can potentially deal with multiple threats, but you'll probably have to take some risk and lose life to make the most of them. A bounce spell is card disadvantage, but can help provide enough tempo to kill your opponent before it matters. Certain decks like vivi cauldron are hard to cleanly deal with through any one piece of removal, and require other tactics. Pic related is one of the most busted cards printed in recent history and all it does is help dig for cards.
>>96951585>he has never won a game by leaving open two blue mana and looking smug skill issue
>>96951616And then what? The optimal play for the other player, if they had any sense, would be just to play their threat. It's not like the imaginary counterspell's going away.
This card is surprisingly useful
>>96951632Horrible flavor text.Why do all Magic characters talk like quirk chungus?
>>96951631Often true, but not always. Sometimes you want to save stuff to double spell, sometimes you want to wait for hand hate or other cards that will ensure a crucial card can land.
>>96951645Are you stupid?
>>96951648Very rarely the case. When it is the case, the player with the threat has effectively won anyway.
>>96951662The point is that even if it only happens 10% of the time, ensuring a win in those cases makes 55% win to 45% loss. Magic isn't chess, you're not going to be winning every single game even if you're the best player in the world. It's more like poker, you're going to play the numbers to eke out an advantage.
>>96951686Realistically, it's far fewer than 10% of cases in which bluffing can make a difference, as opposed to poker, in which it's almost all.
The new Magic AIDS video is probably the single best video ever made about Magic the Faggening
>>96951720There's people with 70-80-90% w/r, the people who consistently top 8/16 and win tournaments are always the same, you are fundamentally too stupid to play a children card game.And thank god for that, otherwise if you all weren't NPCs I wouldn't be able to win most of the games.
>>96951741I really fail to see what's going on at the top level then. I am 1dan in Go, not amazing, but solidly the top percentile for westerners. I'm also no slouch in Backgammon or Chess. Games generally come naturally to me. This one has seemed uniquely braindead.
>>96951753You sound gay and insufferable.
>>96951720There are multiple factors, knowing when to drop threats isn't the only one. There's also different types of decks entirely, like combo, which require a different paradigm.
>>96951632hell yeah
The game has definitely gotten dumber.I've had really tense matches in Magic that have come down to bluffing and resource management but now shit is just wondering if they have it every turn. What kind of decision making is there when the other guy just plays a red 1 drop and attacks and can have it go big mode at instant speed, then plays another one if you remove it? It uses to be that you could strategically take damage but now half of all meta decks blow you out in 1 turn.
>>96951753>go>chessStrategy games with perfect information and 0 luck involved, not applicable>backgammonMore similar, and afaik the best players there don't break 70% win rate either.>your postYou sound like a midwit, comparing a card game where you build your own deck to games where every match will use the same pieces.
>>96950967I hope flop harder than Spooderman this trash western anime set.
>>96951804It's not flopping harder than Spooderman.It's over.
They should print more cards that are just tits
>>96951838Avatar will sell because the cards actually look playable and it has hot chicks on them.
>>96951800Backgammon has a very rich decision tree beyond the opening. Even opening theory has changed in the past few decades.>>96951797 sums up my experience of Magic. When 1-mana threats scale to closing, it does become a game of "who sticks first."

>>96951553This is not as clever as you think it is. "The game is just trying to win while foiling your opponents attempts at winning?! What hogwash!"

Anje I might add if I push the theme closer to sacrifice, but I feel like in a normal 5 color cube, it's a little greedy to say that Rakdos is going to have non-combat damage, life gain, attacking, sacrifice AND say discard as themes running through it rather than focusing on fewer themes.>>96951286Orcus is awesome, he's going in, thanks!

>the lightning bending card was just a fucking Lightning Strike reprintI don't know what I was expecting, but I'm disappointed.
>>96952466Pretty sure there was another lightning bending card that let you change the target of a spell.
>>96952554>>96952466
I just bought cards from Japan and it turns out it's not common practice for them to authenticate cards. What the fuck.
might just stop buying sealed and secret lairs. I am getting tired of how fucking greedy is wotc. Selling us shit and slop left and right. Those avaturd reprints look like ass. How long till the game implodes, 5 years or more.
>>96952715Any secret lair worth its salt will be bought and scalped before you can make it to checkout. Sealed is never worth it except for draft. With inflation back on the rise and insurance premiums skyrocketing in the US, we might not have to wait 5 years as cardboard squares are the first things to get cut when belts tighten.

guys, after seeing the horrifying set announcements for the next couple years I decided I have to move to a cube of sorts for my own sanity. I have this pile of cards I love all ready but it's not really balanced yet so I wanted to ask:is it reasonable to built a cube in such a way that each booster has 2 commons of each color, 1 colorless, 3 uncs and 1 r/m of any color? I have heard that cube boosters are usually 100% random in color but I want to kinda make sure every color is feasible every draft. good idea? is there already a better solution?any contribution is blessed by the knowledge that you have saved an anon from insanity

Leaker hereFirst set of 2027 will bring us back to Avishkar. The set name is Avishkar: Gorehabba.
>>96950601forwarding. Got 2 for 350$ each at one store and preorder for 430 at amazon
>>96953011In theory you can keep your cube in multiple stacks and give N cards from each stack per pack, nothing unreasonable here except maybe a headache sorting the lot after each game night. But perfect feasibility is sorta counter to what people like about cube, that you gotta adapt to the cards you can draft. So i dunno, give it a try but dont expect anything big.
>>96953287I can see that but isn't there a guarantee in real boosters that you always get at least one of every color? furthermore if one would rely only on commons their deck would be worse
Inside of me there are two wolves.One thinks a One Piece UB Set would be really fucking cool.The other is drowning in a slurry pit.

>>96953704step one exile a thing on entry, step 2 you MAY exile dead things, step 3 pay a life and choose one of the things you exiled, step 4 you gain shit from the thing you chose that resolved last.the fourth thing is to prevent dipshits from pumping all their life into it and claiming they get all the things. No, you only get the last one to RESOLVE as paying the life is the trigger, choosing happens as they resolve.
>>96953786>step one exile a thing on entry, step 2 you MAY exile dead things, step 3 pay a life and choose one of the things you exiled, step 4 you gain shit from the thing you chose that resolved last.WRONG.Go read rule 607 and try again.
>>96953790Here, you earned your (You). Congratulations on pretending to be retarded on 4channel
>>96953792You are incorrect anon. The card only has two abilities, and about 2000 additional words of text not written on the card.Better luck next time, retard.
You could at least pretend you know how to count
>>96953800>uhhh uhhh the abilities you have to explain the abilitiesthey're on the card you exiled.
>>96953803Cope.
>>96953809>Doesn't understand the problem because he doesn't know the rules.>Still tries to comment on the problem.Textbook midwit behavior lmao.
>>96953813>is just going to double down and say "UH UH UH, YOU DIDN'T SAY THE MAGIC WORD, UH UH UH!"Okay retard. You explain it in full. We're waiting...
>>96953703was reanimator really a problem? the fow package just made it resilient.
>>96953817The fact that you aren't aware of the problem with this card, yet still continue to comment as if there is no problem, is proof that I am going to have to explain the fucking rules to every retard like you every time the card is played.
>>96953682literally what is the issue with this card?
>>96953827When you try to actually use it for any purpose you think it actually works for.
>>96953823yup, keep going about how I don't understand, and how you understand perfectly, but don't take the time to explain what it is you obviously get that I don't.Sounds like you're actually just a dipshit rubbing his ass on the carpet.
>>96953831>yup, keep going about how I don't understandYou don't.You think there is no problem and that means you do not understand.You thinking there is no problem is proof you do not understand.You do not understand.
>>96953818>was reanimator really a problem?the problem is that reanimator went from a deck archtype into a package you shove into dimir tempoinstead of banning entomb they could ban tamiyo, murktide, orcish bowmasters and nethergoyf but they're too cowardly to do that
>>96953646My guess is that they are doing away with the Learn part of Lessons alltogether - the return to Strixhaven will use Lessons like Avatar is doing. They will just have a subset of spells be lessons and have payoffs / triggers for them.
>>96953839>My guess is that they are doing away with the Learn part of Lessons alltogether - the return to Strixhaven will use Lessons like Avatar is doing. They will just have a subset of spells be lessons and have payoffs / triggers for them.... that's just Arcane...They literally have stated openly that Arcane is one of, if not the worst mechanic of all time.Why are they just reprinting Arcane?

>>96953836so make me
>>96953829what do you mean? I can exile creatures and pay 1 life to copy the effect if I want to
>>96949876Firebending will be broken in some way because free mana always gets broken.It's kinda sorta what Vivi does but toned down but not really.
>>96950967I hate all UB card design and it's not about different franchises.There's something fundamentally wrong with how UB sets are designed with bazillion legendaries and simplistic mechanics doing same thing over and over again.I would gladly have any hat set over any UB set at this point.
>>96953133That was written when best red creature was a 2/1 for 1, not an infinitely scaling mouse that kills you on turn 3 unless removed.
>>96953946Sounds like a you problem.>>96953972>what do you mean? I can exile creatures and pay 1 life to copy the effect if I want toSo what happens if you copy an effect that exiles creatures, anon?
>>96954022>So what happens if you copy an effect that exiles creatures, anon?The copy effect only cares about cards exiled with Koh's effect so it won't matter
>>96954055>The copy effect only cares about cards exiled with Koh's effect so it won't matterGreat, so you know you are going to have to explain this to fucking everybody and should not be confused about the problem.
>>96954057it's literally the simplest thing ever, are you dumb anon?
>>96954067>Reads the rules like he's told and realizes he's a retard>Smugly pretends he would have guessed this after reading the card without knowing them.
>it's real
>>96954022>you problemok, I'll keep talking about the cards here wrong then. surely this isn't affecting you in any way judging by the seethe
>>96954127Pearls (mine) before swine (you), anon.
>>96954057isn't this how everybody understood it? nobody said it worked differently
>>96954120Now show us standard
>>96954057I legit don't see what the problem is here, or why you think anybody would be confused.
I feel really bad for anyone who's started in the last few years. Never got to experience peak magic. But I probably feel worse for the people who did get to experience peak magic and then stuck around to watch it slip away.
>>96954170>I legit don't see what the problem is hereBeing unable to see the problem indicates you are unintelligent to the point of being incapable of conceptualizing future circumstances.
>>96954120retardthere's still at least 40 minutes left
>Standard: We know it's fucked, but let's be honest it has been funny seeing how much seething there has been about the lack of balancing. Let's face it chumps: We are still making banks from Commander and scalpers. You smack talking us about a dead format won't change that. We've decided not to change anything. Ever again. May Standard flourish eternally.
>>96954181Honestly it sounds like you realized you were wrong and are trying to conceal it by pretending that nobody understands something that's super simple.
>>96954190What you think it sounds like is irrelevant.You being unable to conceive of a potential problem is you being incapable of abstract thought.

>>96954195>still fails to articulate any problemRight, I'm just going to cut this short since nothing will get you to articulate this problem that's surely real and abundantly obvious.
>>96954221>still fails to articulate any problemI literally started by articulating a problem when I posted the card, retard. Try again.
>>96953024>What is your favorite planeRavnica
>>96953024Of all the planes, I really do think Ulgrotha has the best overall lore.
>>96954254As best I can tell you're trying to rules lawyer that the abilities are linked in a way that somehow causes a paradox?Frankly your point about the card is so vague that I can scarcely distinguish what it is (hence why I and multiple others asked you to elaborate), and I haven't seen any real evidence that this isn't just more of your prevarication.
>>96953024Despite how they ruined it with Dragonstorm, I still like OG Tarkir. Maybe it's just because that's when I got into competitive, but the rich detail coloring the different clans hits me in a way that a lot of people have described Ravnica and Alara hit them back in the 2000s. I do hope we go to Gargantikar, seeing a bunch of giant bugs in a giant realm with trees taller that skyscrapers would be interesting to experience.

>>96954302I think he's saying that exiling creatures with copied abilities aren't linked and so they can't be used for his innate copy ability. I'm not sure though because there's nothing inconsistent with the rules like he claimed in >>96953682
>cauldron and vivi banned in Standard>Curi cutter banned in Pioneer>no changes in Legacy
another 40 minutes to go I guess
>>96954057Why would I care about cards with exile effects? These cards aren't Koh. Koh became a copy of the cards it exiled, it didn't retroactively become them. If I exile 20 cards with Scavenging Ooze, kill it and then copy it, these 20 cards don't become "cards exiled by Koh" because Koh literally never exiled those cards.
They will finally unban jitte in modern. Screencap this post.
Are white and green the weakest colors in standard right now?
Insider here. Ban of Vivi and Cauldron in Standard. That’s it.Fuck the rest of formats.Be prepared.

>>96954975>Clearly didn't try hard enough."We tried to ban around entomb" is such a fucking cope. The fact that entomb was not a problem for three full decades suggests that they weren't even remotely close to banning enough.
>>96954977The fact they leave Annex and Mirror untouched to us baffling, two cards that should have gone the moment they touched the format.

>>96954999>Its a 0/3The problem goes beyond that
>Completely fucking untouched>>>>>>AgainKNEEL
It's shocking to me how WotC's rabid, frothing devotion to rotating every eternal format as ruthlessly as possible by banning old cards does not extend to Pioneer, the ONLY format that might actually fucking benefit from it.
>>96955031>turn 3 infinite mana combo in post-June standard vs pelt collector in pioneernice comparison you got there
>>96955057>my non-rotating format deck is not rotatinghell yeah
>>96955079The problem isn't that the format is too stable.The problem is that the decks which are stable in the format are absolute fucking unfathomably unpleasasnt cancer and their presence ruins any hope for the format's gameplay to be good.
>>96955090too longdidn't readgonna keep playing rakdos like a boss
>>96955107>gonna keep playing rakdos like a bossExactly how do you intend to play a deck in a format that doesn't exist and is dead?
>>96955111I get matches on MTGO in minutes
>its another "WotC fails to understand that by making creatures too good then removal doesn't do its job" episodeHero and Nemesis are awful bans and are a product of creatures just being able to do everything. Standard should be absolutely flooded with good removal (for all permanent types, not just creatures really). They simply refuse to learn. I'm also laughing my ass off at "lifegain is one of the core ways to defeat fast aggro" in the article. No, lifegain doesn't win against aggro. REMOVAL wins against aggro. In before "but lifegain lets you live long enough to remove things" - if removal was up to par you wouldn't need to live longer. The entire creature / removal dynamic is busted.Yes, I'm aware that WotC does this because little Timmy's creature getting killed instantly is a "feel bad" they want to avoid but it means the game is unplayable until they stop doing this.
>>96955129removal spam is it's own kind of cancer
>>96955140It results in more interesting gameplay.

>>96955148Abuelo's wasn't even a White card anyway, so the kikes are still kiking.
>>96955177>Abuelo's wasn't even a White card anywayFacts.
>>96955140Counterpoint: If creatures are essentially spells with bodies these days then why not crank up removal as you are already "getting your value" out of casting them anyway?
They should just ban all strong non-blue cards. The game was better when blue shat over everyone else.
>>96955183That only gets you halfway there. You also have to ban the strong blue creatures.
>>96955148How could a white card get banned when there hasn't been a single white card printed in the past decade?
>>96955193Wrong, blue should never get nerfed. Actually, instead of just banning all the good non-blue cards, they should all get reprinted in blue as well.
>>96955129Both HH and Nemesis are design mistakes that should've never been printed to start with, so I can't call it an outright mistake to get rid of them, but yeah, they're just taking pot shots at cards that people complain about rather than actually addressing underlying issues.
>Sir, they banned mons's goblin raiders in pioneer
>>96955155That’s some larping retard trying to troll me but never works. Likely some butthurt kike who’s eternally assmad that I’m right about JOTC hating White
>>96955225>t. larper troll trying to deflect from Gavin and Nosewater's kike lies
>>96955225What is the strongest white card in Standard?
>>96955225He was way funnier than you.Post trophies, btw. Let me guess you can't because you can only play white and white can't get 5-0s.
>>96955238Beza is the only decent White card that Nosewater must've missed. There's literally no explanation for it except that it was hiding under his huge kike nose while he was inspecting the White cards for the set.
>>96955257>kike troll trying to pretend to be me acting like I would ever say anything good about unplayable Fake White garbage like Beza
>>96955182Because spells are clearly better at their job then spells with bodies?

>>96955031press /s to spit on grave
>>96955129THIS.MaRooooooo print fucking answers fucked!!!ANSWEEEEEEEEEEEERS!!!!!!!
I am admittedly a casual player, but I have never heard of this card in my life. Was it actually a problem? Which deck even played it? Was it in the Vivi deck? Come to think of it, I instant conceded matches if I saw Vivi, so I don't actually know what was in Vivi's deck.
>>96955331>Was Proft's even a problem?lmao
>>96955282I'll let you in on a little secret.There is no "whiteschizo" anymore. He stopped coming to these threads regularly a year ago. Now there's 2-3 anons having a laugh larping as "the" whiteschizo and accusing each other of being larpers. That's why "the" whiteschizo posts at seemingly random hours and it makes you wonder when he sleeps. It's all just one big running joke. Cue one of them calling me a kike shill troll larper or whatever.
>>96955331read the article. ask chatgpt for a tldr if you got the reading skills and comprehension of the average american.
>>96955331Oh sweet summer child
>>96955313Uhhhh is this a white card?
>>96955331Yeah it was a Vivi card, it was in a few other decks but it isn't a banworthy card at all.

>>96955313
It feels like they banned a bunch of random cards so that talk isn't about vivi
>>96955385Because Pioneer exists only on Arena now. And Arena is just shitbrews all around.
>>96955424>It feels like they banned a bunch of random cards so that talk isn't about viviAll the talk about Vivi's ban was done during the FUCKING MONTHS that it was left legal for no good reason.Can anyone point to the line in the article where Wizards apologizes for not banning Vivi during the last announcement?
Today I will remind them.They changed his effect in the Modern focussed set to appeal to commander players.He just wanted to flash.
>"It's a great time to play Modern">Amulet Titan vs. UR Prowess vs. Giga Control
And Expressive Iteration is still legal? Come on Mark, do better.
>>96955424They already had the article where they said Vivi was going to be banned and then they had that fucking embarrassing top 8 with, what, 6/8 Vivi decks? Distracting from Vivi seems like a mistake because now everyone is just reminded how fucked up everything else still is.

>>96955432Well you have to understand that giving flash to spells is too scary for Commander players. If someone casts a spell during your turn it feels really bad which is why removal is systematically turning into sorceries.

>>96955482See, that's an interesting topic.I, personally, would love a Reanimate target that's less optimal than the Big G, but also blue for the sake of pitching to Force.It would create an interesting tension between having the best threat, and having the best options...WotC's way though?Fuck interesting gameplay, just do both!
>>96955237Yes, you are>>96955238Caretaker’s Talent>>96955239I never said white was strong, otherwise it would be white cards getting banned every year in Standard, but kikes are biased and only favor red blue and black
>>96955489>kike won't post a single White card because he knows he'll embarrass himselfConcession accepted
>>96955459Entomb into Grisselbrand was fine. Reanimator was like tier 3 at best for the longest time.Atraxa is pitchable to Force and refills your hand without having to shoot yourself in the face.Those two factors suddenly jumped the deck to tier 1. I don't think Entomb was the real issue here.
>>96955493You know what he did.He knows you know what he did.You know he knows you know what he did.And yet, he did it anyway.
>>96955452Nah, it's white
>>96955505cleary force is the problem.
I started playing magic in middle school back in ~2008 during Lorwyn/Shadowmoor block and it's always been my favorite plane for the art style and shit like insect fairies and it feels like such a monkey's paw that it took almost 20 years for a return to the plane and it happens only once Magic has turned into the Fortnite of card games and I've never had less interest in it. The gradual enshittification of literally everything in the name of trend chasing the last decade sucks the soul out of anything it touches

>>96955438Jeskai blink is a pretty recent phenomenom and it's still fairly early to tell if riddler is genuinely ban worthy. Other than that modern is a healthy format, yes.
>>96955539>and it's still fairly early to tell if riddler is genuinely ban worthy.Fuck off no it isn't, the card is busted as all fuck and nobody thinks it is reasonable.
>>96955513They should ban Force. Just watch Legacy burn. The tears from the remaining sunk-costed Legacy players who have sucked up all this slop would be more entertainment than I've gotten from the game in the past five years.
>>96955502>Caretaker’s TalentNosewater please try a little harder. That shit only ever functioned in BOROS tokens decks. Might as well have been a good little kike larper and said Leyline Binding like you've been doing for the past 3 years.
>>96955545Hit wasteland too while you're at it
>>96953987Yeah Firebending is definitely gonna be the most impactful of the four across formats, the ability for pump spells to turn into Rituals is just too much value for SOMETHING to not get stupid. Airbending seems the least useful imo since the flat 2 cost makes it a worse flicker for your own stuff, the best use case looks to be airbending opponent's cards for tempo gain which is often just worse than bouncing them to hand. The pseudo board wipe that airbends all your opponent's shit will be good for voltron commander decks.
Primeval Titan, finding some kind of bullshit since 2011.Seriously who came up with this.
>>96955533>no u!Begone, jew. You lost.
>>96955560>>96955560>>96955560
>>96955465Oh fuck im retarded, I thought those were the rewards
>>96954871Never thought they'd ban Nemesis, I'm so glad they did.
>>96955552>BindingDomain kikery, not white. You’re obsessed with me retard-kike
>>96955518I must be a couple time zones off from you then.
>>96955564Stay mad kike loser
>>96955522Have you never heard of populate? White has copies of tokens
>>96955574Exactly! The kikes try to call shit like Leyline Binding, Abuelo's, or Caretaker's "powerful white cards" but literally none of them are remotely playable outside of multicolor decks. It's all Jewish pilpul straight out of Nosewater's book of tricks.
>>96955580No one's falling for it, nosewater
>>96954871>ban cards in standard>don't ban them in format that is still getting raped by cards that are currently in standard
>>96955148I play mono-white auras as my go to deck in historic and pioneer for exactly this reason. It actually got a decent upgrade with Spiderman via Skyward Spider, with sheltered by ghosts it gets Ward 4+flying which is functionally hexproof. Lightpaws and Kor Spirit Dancer are both pretty retarded value, Sram/Firion is worse but I still run a few copies.
>>96947081>6-7 weeks for every set>mobile client is pure ass>draft is minimum $25 everywhere I liveI just wanted to come back to the game and play limited now that I have a job...
>>96955182Got the cause and effect the other way around
>>96950967Loving how it looks, now let's see how it plays.
>>96955493>>96955508and what are you gonna do about it? nothing, you are powerless
Which avatar singles will reshape the modern meta and why is it toph with earthbending?
>>96955493high tide was never worth $ though
Maybe... Maybe we were too harsh on hat sets...
>>96954540Maybe his question is "if my Koh copies a Deathrite Shaman, and I exile a creature card with Koh using DRS tap ability, will I be able to select that new card for Koh's 'pay life and choose a card exiled with Koh'?" to which the answer is yes and it should be obvious that it's yes.
>>96958171Is this real? Will this be part of standard?
>>96958171Looks good to me, you just don't get it because you haven't watched the show
>>96947081Turtles might be the gayest thing since Spiderman, and before that was March/Aftermath... maybe one of the hat sets was cringe but AFAIK we've been on a hot streak
isn't this a strong white card?
>>96954057so came back today to find this long reply exchange from the anon acting like only he saw the issue with the card even after I plainly explained how simple the card is in >>96953786 .god anon you acting like a pendantic ahole all to point out the obvious if the card exiles a card that exiles other cards........ wow 100% autistic dumbass.
>>96954516he was made to look like a fool then tried to downplay when it was pointed out how reading the card explains the card. >>96957836frankly I don't think any of us know why anon got so twisted and acted like he had secret understanding of a pretty straightforward card. Anything koh exiles he can gain the abilities of, he only has the abilities of the last thing he targeted in exile and any way he manages to exile still counts as him exiling.I think anon was just sperging out and when called on it he tripled down rather than admit nobody else was having an issue understanding such a straightforward card.
>>96958998it would've been very op in old modern where boggles had a presence. These days most decks can crap out 20 power worth of creatures by turn 3-4 so now not so much. The downfall is it has to target.
>>96958604you can probably count on wotc pushing homoerotic crap in the star trek set. Or they'll make James T Kirk black.
OI, IT'S SPOIDAMAN UK
