Foils are great because I have no practical use for them and other people want to pay dumb amounts of money for some of them, everyone is a winner. I feel sad for you if you want to play with foils though, it's not feasible for only the cheapest and laziest of reasons. I would also be heated about it

when you think about it the cheap, lazy, and undesirable foil implementation on Arena is very faithful to the original.

It was my first summer living in a basement apartment, so we didn't know to set up a dehumidifier until it was too late. All my foils that weren't double-sleeved in a deck or box (so nothing more than bulk foil commons) got warped like crazy... except some Avacyn Restored foils. Somehow they're straight as a board. Whatever they were doing in that set, they should bring it back.

No idea how a card goes from 5 to 300 because it’s alt art and foil, but I’ll 100% take a bunch of cash and find a copy of the regular card to play with. It was something like half the cost of my humans deck from a promo pack.

Have they addressed why Arena starts to run like dogshit after you play more than 1-2 matches in a row yet? I'm assuming this isn't a problem if you have a relatively new computer or tablet but they really ought to figure this poo poo out since the Beta is apparently ending and we're getting the "official" launch.

Yeah, if you still want to make use of your Hogaaks AND your Bridges From Below, there's an LED-less/mana-less dredge deck that just put up results at GP ATL, and is even cheaper than the burn deck that made it to T4 also at GP ATL. https://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/2288040#paper

They were pre-ordering for 15 bucks but it didn't last for all that long. To be honest the more I play with wrenn and six the more I look forward to replacing it with something else as jund evolves. Sure it upgrades what the last hope did with dorks and other small stuff, but the land side doesn't get maximized well in the deck. If only the mana would you let you use field of ruin.

W6 will never get replaced with another card. It's like insanely broken as a two mana play.

I personally think W6 is fine and I like the format with it in but “this two mana walker is only a slight upgrade over this three mana walker” is not a great argument

Katana Gomai posted:I, too, look forward to the day W&6 gets banned in both Modern and Legacy. I think it's fine in Modern, but it's getting obnoxious in Legacy. Already the 3-4 color piles that card has birthed have risen to 18% of the meta. Probably closer to 25% if you aggregate the various different versions that count as "X cards changed so it's a different deck". For reference, the 2nd most prevalent deck in Legacy, Miracles, is only 5%. I'd have to pull stats from back then to compare, but this feels a lot like where we were before Deathrite ate its ban because 4 color Leovold piles rose to similar prevalence, and those decks didn't even warp the format to the same extent Wrenn does (e.g. how much of Legacy is 1 toughness creatures he can ping, looping Wasteland, negating things like Wasteland and Rishadan Port that keep greedy mana in check, etc.).

Probably down to the linearity of time, due to Noble not having become a creature type yet when MH1 came out.

I’m gonna ask a really stupid noob question. How do you get this deck started at all on t1? Seven cards in hand, no graveyard, 20 life. The only things it looks like you could do are cycle a Street Wraith to get a creature in the graveyard, or play second and discard eot to get one card in your graveyard. Obviously Hogaak and Bridge from Below do plenty of stuff, but how the gently caress do you start getting your graveyard full in the first place to use those?

You can Cabal Therapy targetting yourself. But yeah this looks like a slow dredge list. Legacy dredge should feel faster and more broken.
