Lands are one of the reasons many people, myself included, prefer MTG. It allows for utility/manlands which are cool. There's a reason most games that don't include lands are a lot shallower in general.
Not everything has to be a dopamine fix. Sometimes you have to put up with manascrew to enjoy deeper gameplay. Friction is good. It adds some variance, but if you're patient enough and a good player and deckbuilder, your winrate will still be higher in the long run and you'll be rewarded with a richer game overall.

>Rath was an artificial plane utilized by the Phyrexians as a staging point to invade Dominaria. Created out of flowstone generated in the central Stronghold, the plane slowly expanded over centuries until it was the same mass as Dominaria itself, at which point it would transpose atop the target plane, carrying its armies directly into the field. As Rath grew, regions of the two planes would overlap briefly, bringing Dominarian inhabitants into this new, hostile environment. Rath was ruled as a Phyrexian fiefdom by appointed evincars, though an effective uprising was led by Eladamri just before the planar overlay.
>Rath was the setting for the Tempest, Stronghold, Exodus, and Nemesis expansions.

So they just sort of dropped a Tarkir story to go alongside that Secret Lair for women or whatever. So fuck it. https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/magic-story/spirits-of-the-abzan
>Felothar is leading some rebels during that big rebellion we skipped over
>They're assaulting a mobile garrison, belonging to Dromoka's brood
>Felothar herself goes to the most prestigious tent with its own honour guard, tries to persuade them to leave because she doesn't wanna kill kin, they say fuck off
>The two guards put up a fight but Felothar manages to struggle through and kill them both
>She goes into the tent, and there's an angry young girl, pulling a sword on Felothar and calling her a traitor
>Felothar first asks the girl's name, and she gives it as Vasi, Felothar introduces herself in turn as they sort of clash but don't really ever hit
>Felothar manages to topple Vasi, tells her there's no point fighting because the garrison's already defeated
>Vasi lunges at her, Felothar uses that and takes a hit to get her sword to Vasi's throat, who tells her to get it over with
>Felothar remarks she doesn't wanna kill somebody with her talent, Vasi says she's loyal to Dromoka, Felothar says "fine, don't have to join me but I do want to at least train you"
>Eventually Vasi accepts, as long as she doesn't try to escape
>A month later, Vasi's much-improved as Felothar continues to teach, and she's basically taken every lesson to heart except that Dromoka sucks
>Felothar still bests her, but it's closer than before, etc.
>After the spar, Vasi brings up her ward-sister, the first time she's mentioned anybody from her past, so Felothar tries to pry but gets nowhere
>Later, Felothar's returning from a meeting with a war council and finds Vasi at the Kin-Tree, where she left her, trying to get her to communicate with her own ancestors
>It's not working out, and Vasi isn't fond of the tree as a whole
>>
>>98313465
>Felothar realises Vasi thinks this is some trick, they get into a discussion about the Abzan and how they stand together
>Vasi says she doesn't even know her own ancestors, and Felothar remarks that her own ancestors aren't necessarily the people she's descended from, more the lineage of the Abzan as a whole
>Also some stuff about people thinking she was a boy when she was young, because Felothar's trans I forgot that
>Vasi then opens up about her ward-sister, Bara, somebody she thought she had to protect, somebody who ended up teaching her there's more than anger to this all or something
>Felothar sympathises, remarks that Bara is Vasi's family even if not by blood
>Then Vasi suddenly asks if Felothar has met Dromoka, which she has, when she was to be sent to execution
>Vasi then asks how Felothar thinks her rebels can stand against her, because Dromoka is an army all on her own
>Felothar does not have an answer, only that she can walk the path she's on, then they go spar again
>Later, Felothar's own meditation is interrupted by Vasi asking how dare she be about to go off to battle, because if Felothar goes and gets killed in battle, Vasi won't get her duel
>Vasi's also worried that if Felothar dies, the other rebels will just kill her rather than risk her going back to Dromoka, though Felothar says that'd never happen, too dishonourable
>Before the argument gets really going, a messenger interrupts, saying Felothar's needed at the council
>By the time she returns from that meeting, Vasi's gone
>Later, Felothar's out on her own, trying to find Vasi, which she eventually does, a fight breaks out as expected
>It's pretty even, but Vasi takes a moment to try and accuse Felothar of betrayal and is soon set upon and disarmed
>Felothar intends to go for the kill but hesitates just enough for Vasi to get back up, and as she does, ancestor-spirits manifest which surprises Felothar because even the rebels weren't doing that
>>
>>98313520
>Outnumbered, Felothar ends up losing and Vasi puts her blade to her neck, but she pulls back and helps Felothar up and explains she left to try and find Bara
>Apparently the ancestors told her where to look
>There's some more talk about Abzan togetherness, they hug, Felothar gives Vasi her sword, Vasi says maybe she'll put it into Felothar's heart one day and off she goes while Felothar muses about how strong this family of rebels is

That's for second turn. He pays 2 mana and everything has Ward - sacrifice a permanent, whenever someone casys a spell they must lose 20 life or discard 3 cards, when a creature dies he wins 6 life and everyone else losses 6 life and also he cheats 3 different 20 CMC Black creatures from graveyard for free.

I think it means "if the permanent was cast using the warp mechanic"
>>
>>98317138
And if a permanent is cast using the warp mechanic, it's bound to leave the battlefield one way or another
Outside of Stifling the end step trigger, I guess, but that seems like a super narrow clause to include on a random piece of equipment
>>
>>98317146
The way I understand it is that the permanent doesn't need to leave the field in that case.

>>98317133
Warp triggers on end step, a warped card would miss timing if it didn't have that extra bit of text.
>>
>>98317162
In which cases can a warped permanent not leave the field, outside of Stifle?

Anyway it was a fun draft set. The stellar sights added a lot to the environment, one of my most memorable drafts I went 5-color with three dual manlands and a smattering of the "differently named lands" and landfall archetypes. Probably my favorite execution of a 5-color limited archtype in recent sets.

There was overall a lot to do as far as decks and the games felt more interactive and fewer non-games compared to Lorwyn or Strixhaven.

the ONLY saving grace is that this will reduce the amount of lurrus decks in the format, even if only by a small margin

Malnutrition. UB sets are lacking in good nutrients. The thread grows sluggish and weak as a result. The only remedy is nutrient-rich UW sets.

I've been enjoying manapool. You should definitely dual list items on it, volumes on the upswing and it's a very chill platform.
>>
>>98321438
In addition to UB sets sucking ass and the general state of the game being poor in recent years, there's also been multiple threadwars/schisms between and within MTG general, EDH general, MTG UW general, and MTG Arena general. Attention is split, even among those of us that still care enough to post.
>>
/mmg/ died for our sins
>>
>>98312966

Existence of lands doesn't mean you have to draw them randomly with your other cards.
If MTG was designed correctly it would have two libraries, a land library and a spell library, and every time you draw a card you'd pick which one you draw from.
>>
>>98322781
How come this never became a format then?
>>
>>98321760

Simply ban every card with a mana cost lower than 4.
>>
>>98322784
Formats in Magic are retarded shit like EDH, Dandan and Judge's Tower with their convoluted nonsense rules. They are not signifiers of good game design.
>>
>>98322761
Arena thread is dead we should just combine them. Edh is active enough to have its own thread.
>>
>>98322794
Judges tower is cool though what do you mean? It doesnt need to be sanctioned tournament play for every format. The rest are pretty retarded tho.
>>
>>98322801
There's Arena-specific formats like Brawl and their version of Cube that people get pissy about if they're discussed here, and there's enough distinction between the topics to warrant a split. It's not like /tg/ is a fast board.
>>
>>98322872
So who cares if they gat mad fuck em. Theres no reason to have an arena thread that stays up for weeks with one retard that keeps bumping it every day.

The main badgermole deck is just goldari midrange, its not a turn 3 ramp into craterhoof deck. There is a couple green nykthos/mole/hoof ramp decks, a new one popped up a few weeks ago using the great henge for card advantage.

It's surprising that Reddit is angry about the Candelabra ban. Normally those people just eat up whatever JotC tells them to. Pic related in particular is something I called when arguing with someone at my LGS about the ban, saying there's going to be at least one diehard High Tide player who loves Candle and is going to be screwed over by an unnecessary, incorrect ban.
>>
>>98324099
>It's surprising that Reddit is angry about the Candelabra ban
I don't think it's surprising, there's basically 2 types of people there, people who aren't mad because they simply don't care about legacy and people who are mad because they do care about legacy
I think pauper is the only format that has an overall positive sentiment on reddit

Fact or Fiction really got powercreept fast.
When they started to do similar cards they at least made them somewhat equal power wise (either 4 manas or sorcery).

I hate how the designers of this game can only think of powercreeping the shit out of it to sell product.
