In the 3 store events I've gone to everyone has been pretty chill.

There is a lot of debate right now about how much support Karn has to have to be good. No one has the testing to be sure if he needs other artifacts or if the +1 and -1 are good enough on their own as a draw engine. And if he does, how much he needs - is a playset of Walking Ballista enough? Treasure Map? Or does there need to be a dedicated artifact theme. That said, he's going to be at least fine in any sort of not-super-tuned midrange pile. He's probably not the greatest as a curve topper in aggro decks, unless there is a major artifact theme.

Much as people love to talk about lovely magic players I find that the community is significantly less toxic than pretty much every single online gaming community. The problem is that the people who are bad are particularly bad considering it takes another level of rear end in a top hat to be a dick to someone's face at fnm than it does to be a dick to a faceless stranger on the internet. In other news Hareruya posted some decklists for the news standard and I hate the UW control list http://www.hareruyamtg.com/article/en/category/detail/310

However, 5% of the time it lets super toxic people hang around the Magic community for way too long without anyone telling them to gently caress off, because that would be mean.

neaden posted:I read the books up until Invasion and liked Karn. He was oddly more human than a lot of the characters who were capable of all sorts of grand magic and stuff. He was kind of an everyman, even though he was a time travelling metal golem. His friendship with Jhoria and Terefi was kind of cute, and his slowly losing his memory over time added some pathos to his character. Him becoming a plansewalker after all that time with the Thran Stones seemed like a justified end to his character arc since you knew he wasn't going to make all the horrible mistakes people like Urza and Terefi did. Of course, I guess he ended up creating his own metal planet and accidentally turning them into phyrexians, so that kind of sucked for him. He hosed up Mirrodin twice. First by sending the Mirari there and then by bringing the Phyrexians there.

Just wanted to say I am extremely salty because I just lost to an opponent who had out Teferi. When I cast Divest on him he flashed out Raff, Ship's Mage and Weatherlight. This was in a draft by the way.

Most of those decklists look cool and fun. Meanwhile r/spikes is jerking it to some Esper list that is just the exact same deck as before Dominaria came out except they put 2 copies of Teferi in it and some Seal Aways. Like someone just called a Torrential Gearhulk/Scarab God deck “spicy.” Angry Grimace fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Apr 24, 2018 |

It depends on your curve but 17 is generally the go-to for balanced decks.

Really want to make a dumb janky Gr fling deck with something like 22x Lands 4x Llanowar Elves 2x Rhonas's Last Stand 4x Merfolk Branchwalker 2x Rhonas the Indomitable 2x Hazoret the Fervent 4x Steel Leaf Champion 4x Jadelight Ranger 4x Traxos, Scourge of Kroog 3x Ghalta, Primal Hunger 3x Heart of Kiran 4x Blossoming Defense 4x Fling Obviously untested and untuned, but I want to attack with large Traxos and Ghaltas, and then fling them

Kurtofan posted:how many lands do you put in your limited decks? I thought it was sixteen but I'm seeing seventeen according to wizards It’s almost always 16-18 depending on how many colors and how slow the format is. Once you put 18 in your deck you guarantee all of your opponents are playing aggro.

Ran into this news to me at Arena forums:quote:Kaladesh and Aether Revolt are indeed coming! We've been fairly open about this for months, but we can't yet share when they'll arrive. Stay tuned! Which I find a bit curious, as it is like five months to rotation now and less when Kaladesh actually hits. Cool enough anyway that we'll see actual Standard in Arena instead of just the current rump-Standard - and interesting to see how they handle the effects of Standard bans for those who have used wildcards on Rampaging Ferocidons, Ramunap Ruins - or open them from packs.
