After going 0-3 in a sealed event I can confidently say this set sucks.

AngryBooch posted:https://twitter.com/MagicOnline/status/1754993583948783929 New-set drafts are the most cost-effective way to turn play points back into something tradable. I guess some people figured out that if you stuff the queue with 8 of your accounts, you don't have to actually build the deck and play out the games, letting you do it a lot faster and with less variance?

New Rhystic Studies is possibly one of the best statements on the atomization of retail product I've ever seen.

I was so excited for this set, but after 2 drafts I'm not really feeling it Maybe drafting with essentially set boosters is a loving mistake

My favorite part was the dignity with which they pointed out that some serialized cards held a particular premium, including zero-six-nine and four-two-zero.

It's the foils video they seem to have uploaded a few days ago? I'm interested because man it's gotta be crazy at this point. I feel like every few months for the past year there's been a new type of product

I don't see how you're supposed to not just lose if your opponent has built Detectives in this format. Flavorful at least!

 This card is fun and plays really well. The reminder text is also very confusing in paper for a lot of people.

I may be dumb but the first time I read cases, I thought the reminder text was saying they get auto solved by end of turn.

cases are such a neat clean flavorful little design, I like them a lot I'm not sure how you couldn't work out how a case works if you are familiar with the game rules and know what a saga is

To me, the word "auto" strongly implies that something is different from the norm. I would not describe solving cases as "auto" because there's only one way to do it. Hence the confusion. Edit: generatrix posted:Other people are using “auto-solved” to mean “solved even if you didn’t meet the condition”. Yes, this exactly.

So another set with pretty wild durdly stuff you can do where R/W,R/U beatdown just are the best decks by far huh?

It's like 7% win rate higher than anything other than GW which is a very similar go wide deck. The piles are getting ran over.

The piles are getting ran over. I mean, it has some awesome turns. It’s basically the pioneer deck at this point. It doesn’t have much reach though and will fold pretty hard to sweepers. When the 3 mana sweepers get this much value against a deck it def gives it a lower ceiling. I still like it and will prob play it if I play standard at all.

White just has a ton of good cheap commons and uncommons that are super easy to run someone over with and even the worse W commons are pretty reasonable cards. Every other colour just seems to have more costly stuff it feels like? Idk

I have seen some good UR artifact aggro decks but they are more spotty I got my +1/+0 case copied 3 times with the XXXGU card which was a hilarious way to lose a game. I also Rakdos and the 6mana Dragon are obnoxious bombs but not unfair. mcmagic fucked around with this message at 17:30 on Feb 8, 2024 |

It's at least W/R and W/U since Blue has a bunch of the best evasive creatures in the format and some good ways to disable blockers. I dunno how Selesnya and Orzhov are.

WU is the third best, WG is better because of the overrun morph. Very funny format where On the job is the second best common in the set.

LMAO reprints are theft. Even without the AI poo poo this is the shittiest philosophy wrt to card game. Any card more than 3 dollars is a scam that you should avoid through proxy or counterfeit.
