Finally giving Arena another try. I don't really care to play Historic anymore ever since the persistent effect thing happened, but if it's really that easy to keep consistent standard decks going with f2p, I may as well bite the bullet and learn to play limited even though it's the format I hate most. Anymore I just wanna throw cards around without feeling gross going to the LGS where masks don't matter anymore.

Sinteres posted:I was excited about Innistrad Double Feature, and sad that every indication so far is that it won't be on Arena, but 1. the greyscale art kinda looks like poo poo imo, and 2. it's the laziest implementation possible. PleasantDirge posted:I'm really cised your pet deck went T1 wild. Such a great feeling and the only thing close is the joy of beating Johnny come lately's who picked up the deck because it's the current new hotness. You are such a fun person to have in here, couldn't have happened to a nicer wizard poker player nudejedi posted:I think double feature was the next set my homies were planning to draft so that'd be sweet if they end up cheap! edit: (just realized the quote is different, duh) this set is a limited edition run only for WPN stores and only the premium stores get the fancy promo card. my guess is even if it tanks/bombs the price of the boxes will remain higher than the regular innistrad draft boxes because there's not a lot of it. and also since each pack has 2 rare/mythics but a chance at a third... and since most stores aren't getting that much anyways so there won't be much to dump.

The thing with greyscale and old movies is that they used weird colors so that things would look good. Just greyscaling regular art is super lazy.

neaden posted:The thing with greyscale and old movies is that they used weird colors so that things would look good. Just greyscaling regular art is super lazy. Yeah it's pretty lazy. I think there's a new variant where they did put some effort into some cards and that's it. The more annoying thing for me is that they released the Innistrad sets so close together so they could do this.. which meant less time playing MID (which i liked drafting), less time on VOW, and a brief time where you're drafting DBL. and like even after DBL gets releaed it goes _straight_ into Neon Dynasty spoilers a couple weeks after.

Drewjitsu posted:What is an average win rate? 50%? If so, I think that premier drafting is your best bet for returns. Thanks a lot for this, much appreciated. Yah I was assuming average would be like 50% win rate. I will try to jump in a few Premier Drafts this week and will report back. The draft format seems like a lot of fun so at least I'll be enjoying myself even if I don't get a lot of wins.

Framboise posted:Finally giving Arena another try. I don't really care to play Historic anymore ever since the persistent effect thing happened, You will almost never see a card with Persist being played so if you like eternal formats just play historic and don't worry about this. The only Persist cards that see any play are the Freyalise Planeswalker in Elves and then some control decks with white in them were playing the cycling creature thing that I don't remember the name of because I almost never see it. In my experience both of these are pretty rare, but I don't play BO1.

Dark Souls Tom and Jerry The Toronto Raptors Thomas the Tank Engine So many properties to explore, but instead we get some normie cartoon  Just kidding, I hope the cards are cool and I'm glad the world's most popular Netflix show is getting some MTG clout. Actually doesn't Riot have their own TCG now lol? This is pretty crazy.

I didn't say anywhere in my post I was talking about posters in this thread. The general sentiment on social media for the past crossover secret lairs have been tons of doom and gloom about the future of Magic, and that's what I was talking about. I looked at the Twitter responses to the announcement in a few different places and mostly just saw people excited about it. I don't know why you tried to turn me making a general statement about finding that funny into me obsessively tracking the posting history of people in the MTG thread, but uh, you do you.

No one cares about the Godzilla cards cause you can get a non-Godzilla card that does the same thing. But that didn't happen with The Walking Dead cards so people got (understandably imo) upset.
