evilweasel posted:this post reads virtually identically to MLM marks trying to say that you should ignore all of the statistics about how the marks in the MLM lose money LGS are not harder than any other business to keep afloat, the issue is mainly that people who want to open them also want to be the Cool LGS Owner instead of a person running a business. I am saying this from experience knowing and interacting with numerous owners and retailers of both successful and unsuccessful stores.

A lot of people are trying esper again because it was unplayable before. Still not convinced it's good tbh, but it is fun to not be at an immediate disadvantage vs oko.

LifeLynx posted:At Regular REL, the current fix is to remove any cards that shouldn't be there and replace them with basic lands if the deck is under legal size for the format. If the companion hasn't been cast yet, that's easy - remove it from the player's sideboard and replace it with a basic. But if the companion rule is a deckbuilding rule, then the card that breaks the companion rule is illegal, not the companion card itself, so we'd remove the offending card (and probably replace it with a basic, and I'd assume for the purposes of having this fix around that there are no companion rules that disallow basic lands) and keep playing. At Comp level and higher it's a Decklist Problem which is a Game Loss. You can still have the companion in the sideboard, you just can't cast it from there once per game. e; additionally, this is checked on a per game basis. So, with the CMC>=3 companion, if you had a CMC2 card in your maindeck but sided it out after game 1, you could cast the companion game 2.

The only reason Hour is better than the companion is because hour hits walkers. They'll print some RB/RW spell at some point that does a similar thing and then niv too will play a commander

The reason it's dumb as hell is because they're trying to make it seem like some legitimate and not just a bunch of loving morons buying poo poo out then losing all their money on speculations. It isn't a small successful cadre of people making bank, it's a very, very few moderately successful people, and a vast majority breaking even if you ignore time spent, while making the hobby worse for everyone else.

ungulateman posted:Honestly the only MDFCs that look playable to me are Agadeem's Awakening because it's Rally the Ancestors and a big maybe for Ondu Inversion because a planar cleansing that's also a tapland is miles better than most 'x but it's also a tapland' because planar cleansing goes into decks willing to play taplands. Bala Ged Recovery and Silundi Vision are in a similar maybe position. The 3/3 mammoth could get played solely for its front face because nobody wants to play a tapland in mono-green aggro. You're really, REALLY underestimating the power of these cards. I have to assume you haven't actually looked at the spoilers https://scryfall.com/search?q=is%3Amdfc&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name This is a ETBT forest that becomes your most powerful card if you topdeck it late game Censor was a fantastic card that you tended to cycle to make land drops. This just gives you that land drop at will for free. Planar cleansing that lets you make land drops I could go on like this for ages. It lets you take a card like Act of Treason, which is something that as a red deck you'd absolutely put in your sideboard if it didn't take up a slot. Except now you can cut lands for it and have it maindeck if you want. This card would see play even if it wasn't also your turn 1 land drop, or a land drop instead of a dork if you had another 2 drop to play on turn 3 or whatever. Oh look, a land drop that also deals with the hardest threat for red decks to beat! In fact, for every single one of them, they're better than top decking a land lategame. Sure this card isn't great (Arashin Cleric saw sideboard play, so maybe this would have too anyway), but you know what on turn 20 I'll take it over a plains. This doesn't even get in to the mythics and some of the others that are legitimately good on their front face. The best way to evaluate these is imagining either side with Cycling 0 that always draws the other face. Oh, you always hit your land drop when you cycle to do that. Oh, you always hit a spell when you cycle a land. They're insane as a concept, and you're going to see them all over the place for the rest of time in standard/historic/pioneer, and probably in modern as well somewhere.

Chamale posted:I've been treating them as spells with a small upside, not as a major part of a manabase. It wouldn't surprise me at all if standard decks are all playing 7 or more of these. Better deckbuilders than me are rough estimating you can cut ~4 lands at ~7 MDFCs. Look at them from the other side, they're land drops with extremely powerful upside. I'm not saying Historic Goblins is going to play a shitload of them, but every 2/3 color deck is going to be running some number of these across the newest 3 formats.
