I look forward to cleaning up Vampires and Merfolk with U/W Approach and beating Merfolk post board with Regal caracles as they hold up negate. U/W Approach / Gifts, Snake, Grixis good poo poo, and Merfolk will probably be the decks. I am going to try and make vampires work, because Sanctum Seeker and the 5-drop that draws per vampire seem really good; coupled with duresses and scrapheap scroungers I think this can handle control to a degree, but it is still unfavored.

Decided to check out some streams to see if anyone was playing anything new in standard and the first match I opened up was UB midrange with a Scarab God vs GPG and there were 3 chupas on the battlefield the streamer had another in hand and they were trading back and forth reanimating the ones already in the graveyard... then modo crashed...

Modo. Just modo. Entire thing lagged out and then essentially halted 20+ minutes ago. At least I got my first draft trophy ever before it went down.

modos new lag problems are because ramunap ruins was an integral card for the back end of modo stability

Speaking of lag, I really hope Arena's UI doesn't hew too closely to Hearthstone and takes some notes from things like Eternal or Shadowverse instead. Animations for effects are cool but imagine casting sphinx's revelation with Hearthstone's card drawing animation

That was a really strange programming decision but that's the code they're stuck with I guess.

Nothing like banning 4 more cards out of standard, releasing a new limited and standard format online, and then having your system go down without apparent reason. Why do I play this dumb game again?

Modo servers were actually powered by the energy generated by Attune with Aether and the only way to bring the servers back is to have everyone put 4 copies of Thriving Turtle in the spot Attune once was.

Which standard deck is the hardest to play through to completion on MODO? I know combos take awhile, but other than that, not much.

I'd think modo performance issues, right after a new limited set and fresh standard were released, would indicate player excitement.

i legit dont think there will ever be an mtg deck that will require more clicking and take longer to legitimately win than enchantress pre helm or emrakul. nobody will scoop to getting killed by a 1/1 flyer

Double-clicking spike feeder instead of single clicking it didn't instantly destroy your on-board game-winning combo

I was also pretty down on having to click 42 times to do this (once for each land, twice for each improvise item):  But the result was worth it.

Is Jace the mind sculptor still too much for modern? I mean, the format is so fast atm that maybe unbanning the card woudn't warp everything around it.

One non-obvious argument against it that I found convincing was that it would be an absolute nightmare out of the sideboard from storm or ad nauseam.
