BO3 Draft is very, very bad for regular skilled players. Only do it if you're very good at Limited.

Oh the payout is absolutely nothing unless you win 2 matches and it's only positive if you're unbeaten... Even though I've gotten 7-win runs this weekend three times that's too scary for me, I always did swiss limited in MTGO

Prerelease was okay. Went 2-2, but my wins were against someone who was extremely new to Magic in general and a bye, so... well, whatever, I'll take them. Prerelease card was a Wandering Emperor, and I pulled a Nashi in one of my packs. Rest were pretty weak value-wise. Pulled a foil Satoru Umezawa and a Kairi, the Swirling Sky from my prize packs.

A big flaming stink posted:fair warning, if you're using The Reality Chip on Arena, the auto tapper WILL gently caress you A couple pages back but just wanted to chime in by saying I've gotten to the point where once I reach a critical mass of colors and other poo poo on the board I just start manually tapping for everything. I've gotten burned too many times by the autotapper. I know it's tedious for the opponent but dammit if I'm going to lose I want it to be due to my own failures, not some busted algorithm.

So, those rule and possibly layers: If I have a creature that is under Tamiyo's Compleation and I attach my Cloudsteel Kirin, does it gain the ability before or after losing abilities? And do those two act differently then other cards with similar effects, here?

Gaining and losing abilities apply on the same layer. So I believe if you cast compleation and then apply the kirin, you get the effect. Kirin then compleation wipes the kirin effect and you'd have reattach it to a new creature. Unless reconfigure works weird and 'checks' to see if it's still an equipment every turn creating a new timestamp?

VictualSquid posted:So, those rule and possibly layers: This is a timestamp question. The one with the later timestamp will 'win'. quote:604.3a A static ability is a characteristic-defining ability if it meets the following criteria: (1) It defines an object’s colors, subtypes, power, or toughness; (2) it is printed on the card it affects, it was granted to the token it affects by the effect that created the token, or it was acquired by the object it affects as the result of a copy effect or text-changing effect; (3) it does not directly affect the characteristics of any other objects; (4) it is not an ability that an object grants to itself; and (5) it does not set the values of such characteristics only if certain conditions are met. Because layer 6 is within layers 2-6, and the abilities are not a characteristic defining ability we apply them in timestamp order. So if you complete it before it gets equipped, it will keep the equipment's abilities. If you equip it and then compleat it, it will lose the abilities. Of course, equipment (reconfigure, in this case) can be reconfigured on and off a creature at will so even if compleation won, it will only be temporary.

The auto tapper is incredibly bad this set because it checks for mana cost on the cards in your hand, not Ninjutsu abilities, channel costs, etc. I play very fast most of the time but I’ve been adding .5 seconds on to everything just to make sure it’s tapping correctly.

WotC Slaps New MTG Project With Potential Legal Actionquote:One of the goals of the project is to essentially build a new format for the game that basically forces innovation in the decks and card choices used through scarcity. Higher powered cards would essentially cost more to Mint, while less used, more obscure cards would be cheaper and more accessible to players. While this sounds like a great idea from the format standpoint, the project has many hurdles to overcome, well 1 big one actually, Wizards of the Coast.

The entitlement from that "New MTG Project" is bewildering. It's so wild to see someone blatantly say: hey I'm going to try to make a profit off a major corp's IP, and then act disappointed when said major corp slaps them down. Heck, their site openly flaunts the idea that they'd make enough $$ off this to buy Magic from Wizards of the Coast.

In order to mint a card, you must own the card either in paper or on arena or MTGO (how this is determined is of course, not explained) then pay certain number of tokens. the cost for each card starts at 1 and then doubles for each subsequent copy of that card minted by anyone, ever.  To complete a playset of a given card, the fourth one will cost 8 times as much as the first.

That's insane and also how would a hundred people make a copy? 1*10^30 tokens? So then you should make all the bad cards you can afford and hope one turns out you be a sleeper?

How unbelievably stupid. I could understand the appeal of a version of Magic with a new meta where the top 10% of cards just don't exist but this is just a nightmare scenario where it's not even good enough to be an early adopter; you also need to own the expensive card you want to mint lmao. So the same meta decks exist it's just only the 1% get to use them to stomp on poors. Hahahah what the gently caress.

if you watched dan olsen's "line goes up" video.. he talks about a coin called inuyasha coin using the name and art from the manga.. when an interviewer asks him basically the same question, "how do you think this is legal to do" the guy basically just mumbles that he didn't create the art and since its already been used and put onto the blockchain there's nothing that can be done about the illegal copyright theft. i've marked the section. 2:06:02 if it doesn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_xWvX1n9g&t=7562s edit: the point being these dummies think they can just steal content because of blockchain Strong Sauce fucked around with this message at 04:58 on Feb 15, 2022 |

The set is just a banger start to finish. Draft is fun, constructed seems really fun so far. I like planeswalkers and all four are really interesting and useful, particularly Kaito and The Wandering Emperor, both of which are insane. I was way wrong on the latter, she's nuts. The deck isn't good enough to actually be played in higher ranks but right now I'm playing this Sulta Tamiyo deck in standard that draws cards with Kaito and then grinds people out with Tamiyo recursion on Chariot/Binding into Lolth, Wrenn and Storm the Festival. Extremely fun. mikeraskol fucked around with this message at 17:02 on Feb 15, 2022 |
