For as much as I like drafting and find it ultra enjoyable, I gotta admit that all the bullshit about muh BREAD and muh deckbuilding doesn't fucking matter
It's all a big coinflip, you could draft the worst fucking deck imaginable and still go 7-0
>>

>>98530308
Any lessons deck. Either Jeskai Revelations or plain Izzet. Not a single lesson card is gold or higher.
>>
>>98531937
DSK feels to intelligent for me, tried it a couple times and thought I drafted decent decks but there was just way more interaction to consider and I never got the 7 wins and one run was like 1-3
>>
>>98531937
People do just that. Paypigs that are gifted wins. I mean, the system is inherently coinflip, you must play 2 even 3 colours to have a decent deck. It's very easy to get screwed by card draw, but it's insane how some youtubers get lucky with it, while regular scrubs are fucked 3-4 games in a row.
>>
>>98531633
Nah, I'm just curious why you think that.

That was miserable. Guess I'm not doing Hobbit quick draft either because that already wasn't a fun draft format.

I know this card is ultra giga broken, but I never got why
Obviously cycling cards for free every turn is really good, but you're effectively wasting a land drop and you're going card negative with each activation
In comparison, Library seems infinitely more useful since it actually gives you mana and the condition to get card advantage with is super easy to achieve

I don't care about rank at all. I only ever try to get to gold and sometimes I can't even be bothered to do that because arena is so fucking dogshit

>>

landfall plays a lot of those too, one of game 2 as a little surprise could still be good tho. and playing around it by doing that they take themselves off of mana (if its passage or the shitty passages, not demolition field)

Everyone that actually plays the game is a mega spazoid with aspergers so we need 15 different threads and they cant touch each other or they freak. It makes no sense to have more than one magic thread up at a time. Bunch of faggots act like the way they play this terrible game is the only correct and acceptable way to play. I hope tragedy befalls you all.

Does anyone have infinity combo with Invisible Woman and some counter? I saw it weeks ago, and forgot to save it. It involved Invisible Woman and another marvel(?) creature. Invisible Woman would loop into creating tokens, and the other creature would pump up other creatures with +1/1 counters owing to Walls that Invisible Woman creates.

lol. It would do nothing. A it does nothing in pioneer to curb landfall there.

It cancels Ouroborid and Hydra, and that's it.

my friend has been playing this game for about a month doing starter deck-tier shit. he tried a draft on his own (against my advice) and somehow went 5-3 against all diamond and mythic players.
his only experience learning Magic was a few sessions of watching me grind drafts on his account to farm a bunch of free gems/packs for him, which put him at Diamond without ever trying Limited.
idk how you guys struggle with Limited so much when it's that easy to train a total noob to be better at draft than most of the community.

>>98534101
No, not at all. It only really works in early-midgame in the right Elfball Elixir deck. Really thing about what it does. Loyalty abilities are sorcery speed, so you need enough curve and gas to immediately gain life to keep it alive to survive the first stack after it resolves. Then you need to keep it alive to your next turn while gaining life to keep its going up.
The fact that you have to work to make it good means its a perfectly serviceable card.

I haven't played since maybe March of the Machines? I got about 15k in gems and 250,000 in gold and a plethora of wildcards, maybe like 100 split between rares and mythics alone and an unimportant number of commons and uncommon WC's. If I more or less had say 80-90% of everything in prior Standard sets on Arena(plus a few anthologies here and there)

What are the best non-Alchemy formats that I could probably play that's not Standard on Arena? Has Pioneer or Modern been fully implemented yet? I don't think I want to invest into Standard as of this point and i'm fine playing mostly Explorer/Pioneer.

Pioneer isn't completely there but pretty much all the cards from the top decks are available, and they sometimes add cards if a new deck comes along and is missing some random card from Gatecrash or whatever. I've been playing a lot of Historic lately and even though there's a few alchemy cards floating around here and there it's really not a big issue. I've been just trying to port over modern decks into it and seeing where it gets me with what is available. Converted a modern Rock deck this week and it's a lot of fun to play, it's missing a few cards from the original deck like Soul Spike but I got it most of the way there and was able to just substitute other stuff in it's place.

>even though there's a few alchemy cards floating around here and there it's really not a big issue
I just can't stand the cards and I hated how it permeated itself into 80% of non-Standard game modes. Plus the problem I have with Alchemy cards are that they're not balanced very well and there's no counterplay to a lot of the cards. You can't outplay seek with shit like Spirit of the Labyrinth or a Notion Thief or Shadow of Doubt or whatever. They just get the card for free always and whatnot. Also it permeating Brawl/EDH on Arena gave me the shits as well when I lost in a GW mirror because my opponent cast TIME WARP in a GW deck. You can't play around shit like that. But I might have a look at what the Pioneer meta is like and see if I can make something. I also saw that there's something about Timeless which I presume is like the Vintage of Arena but still has Alchemy stuff in it
>>
>>98580593
The main alchemy card you'll see in timeless is Hydroponics Architect, it can get pretty annoying and is really strong with fetchlands. Timeless is fun and a really powerful format but it's got a lot of turn 1 oops I win matches. Also the only format you can ply 4x strip mine. I mostly play pioneer, there's barely any UB shit in it the decks are fun and there's some room to brew if you just want to mess around.
>>
>>98580601
>4x Strip Mine format
lol wut

Did WotC not remember the lessons of TYPE 1 from 30 years ago?
>>
Speaking of powercreep in standard:
I started playing right as Oko got banned, the standard with Nissa who shakes the world, temur adventures, and uro. And then the 4mana Omnath
and the extra turns blue card. I stopped playing about there and just got back into it. My question is how was the power level in that standard compared to now? and are either of those the highest standard power level since post Vintage era stuff
>>
>>98578549
>Simic Guildgate
>fucking Thornwood falls
>the gate land tutor

>>
>>98580842
After Badgermole bans, it feels relatively tame, but that's only owing to the fact that big tourneys of this cycle are modern. Competitive scene of Arena follows that closely. Once we move back to standard, you'll start seeing fresh dominating brews. Powervise, Standard is extremely high. Meta revolves around the cards of the last sets. Edge of Eternities and Airbender were massive for green. Strixhaven and Airbender for Jeskike decks. Marvel had such a high number of cards in it that it's just waiting for it to be busted.

You can take Standard decks into Pioneer, and five to four extra cards, and dominate there. Badgermole fits everyhwere, or you go lessions deck with a few learn cards, and you've a top deck there.

Even though I loved the Architect in draft and alchemy, I've grown to really dislike the card. It seems like wotc totally ignored the existance of fetches and strip mine when they created it. It typifies wotcs current idea of power as it's a snowball-effect with no downsides except having to play fetches (which itself isn't a real downside).

These days too few of the powerful constructed level cardss powerful has a significant downside like they had in the early days of magic (Juzam Djinn, Necropotence, Ancient Tomb, Pact of Negation, Ball Lightning, Pouncing Jaguar, Swords to Plowshares and so on). Now powerful cards are mainly limited with the Legendary-status, which itself can be used as an upside (Ajani or the new key-card). It's only removal which has a significat drawback but it's also substituted with a lower casting costs. I understand drawbacks are "negative" but would it really hurt to add a damage or cost effect to 1 drops?
>Architect deals 1 damage to a player whenever they search their library
>Whenever you draw your second card each turn, skip it unless you pay 1

It'd make a natural balance to the game where you have to think over your decisions instead of just go t1 best drop, t2 best drop, t3 best drop. I wish there was a better counterplay or balance to these powercards than simply winning the dice roll. It's quite telling when you'll nearly always play the Architect over Tamiyo t1 in timeless. The resulting deck is like Bug Delver on steroids (though with random power-up boost). I guess people love the deck due to Brainstorm and Force of Will, two old classic cards which makes you think.
