I haven't played magic since M13, before Return to Ravnica came out, but WAR looks like a really exciting set so I'm coming out of retirement to play limited this weekend. What are some of the newer rules I should be aware of? Like I know about the new legendary and planeswalker rule--my opponent and I can both have our own copy of Jace on the battlefield. I know there's a vancouver mulligan now and I scry 1 after deciding to keep after mulliganing, but there's some newer mulligan rule?

lol I don't understand, they renamed the PT to numbered "Mythic Championship"? That new mulligan rule seems insanely good and makes a lot of decks much more consistent. I'm excited for WAR limited, it seems like a slower format and potentially grindy so I hope I open a good blue planeswalker.

vegetables posted:I want “spells” to be replaced by a different word because it’s weird that creatures are spells, but I’m not sure a resonant word for “all cards” exists. In a weird way “summon” made this more intuitive; you can understand the creature card is also a spell instantly. A planeswalker wizard dude like you casts spells, so it makes sense when creatures are spells because you do summon or cast them. They just got rid of the summon word because angry moms didn't want their kids to summon demons. In other news, I went undefeated in my prerelease today and I love this limited format. Certain common spells feel so powerful and it feels great playing control.

Entropic posted:If they implement MTGO style draft leagues (draft against humans but then play your matches whenever against whomever), Arena will be doing basically everything I want from it. Ya. This plus seasonal cube drafts, and a way to play legacy. Then I'd be playing Arena so much.

If you're playing 4 faithless looting, you're not looking to do anything fair at all. It wasn't "fine", it's a really good engine that defined the metagame and sped up the format a lot. Saying complaints only came from blue mages is kinda dumb since modern was never really a pure control format, especially as it started out having all the key blue spells being banned. Also, blue mages loving love phoenix.
