2HG was super fun. Had a match where we went down to 3-30 early in the game from aggro and Cut // Ribbons (no I don't know why they didn't wait either), then gradually clogged up the board and removed every threat the opponents had. Game went to time, then in extra turns I managed to discard down to 7 and active Faith Of The Devoted to win (card is totally busted in 2HG). Every game had some super crazy plays, cycling and graveyard recursion keeps the games really interesting. I had played with some Sealed generators online, and it looked really hard to build a good deck. But in 2HG you get absolutely insane pools, the archetypes become really strong. I think draft will be sweet too.

Bulky Bartokomous posted:Hi, I haven't played since Ice Age but was recently feeling nostalgic and decided to check it out again. Is there still a "core" set like Revised or 4th Edition, etc, or did they get rid of that concept? Magic no longer uses the Core Set model. Instead, every expansion is designed to be accessible to new and returning players. Pop along to your local store for a Draft event, the current format - Amonkhet - is particularly fun.

It's this dude I believe, who fits neatly into the category of "please put art on cards that I can actually see at that size please"  Nice painting though.

Playing Draft the other day I had my opponent down to 1 when he turned on New Perspectives, cycled through half his deck to find Archfiend of Ifnir at my end of turn, then used it to wipe my board. Pretty much every game of this format has had some amazing play in it, all sorts of fun.

I can imagine a silly deck that just uses Samut + one of Standard's pseudo-proliferate effects to just slam out giant threats on turn 5.

If they were sensible,they'd be unveiling Magical Digital Next as a replacement for Duels, with the intention of stress testing it there and using the same platform to replace MTGO some time later.

Entropic posted:Hostage Taker seems cool. 2UB or 3UB for a 2/1 Banisher Priest that lets you cast the exiled creature with any color mana. And it hits artifacts too. Am I reading it wrong, or does that card create arbitrarily infinite ETB triggers? Hostage Taker enters, targets itself, exiles itself, returns itself, targets itself, etc

I know that's why Cast Out etc can't keep stuff exiled forever. But that's because the duration never begins. "If the “for as long as” duration never starts, or it ends before the moment the effect would first be applied" - this isn't the case, Hostage Taker is still on the battlefield when the first effect is applied. The game can't tell that Hostage Taker will be gone until it's already halfway through resolving the ability in this case. Edit: Although I imagine a rule change would solve the issue.

There's so much text in that box, I feel like it maybe used to say "may exile another target artifact or creature an opponent controls" and they just had to keep trimming bits off it.

Angry Grimace posted:It's because they don't keep them secret in a way that a way that matters in a world where everyone has a camera on them at all times. Someone needs to print and package those cards in various places around the world. They don't employ actual wizards who can bind the employees of printing presses to a sacred magical oath.

TheChirurgeon posted:The sheet is easily worth more than $500, making this a felony in most states. Weirdly, if the police asked Wizards what the value of the stole items were, they'd have to say like, $50 right? Theoretically Magic cards don't have individual values or booster packs could get them accused of gambling.
