Hellsau posted:Yeah it's this. I've made about 2000 tix since the London Mulligan was reimplemented on MTGO on July 2nd. If I were to have played Arena, I wouldn't have a cash-out option, and I likely would have had to buy a couple hundred bucks in packs since I hate bot drafts and my Arena account hasn't seen use since just after WAR came out. yeah I can't really argue with "I don't play arena because I literally profit off of playing mtgo" so good on you I guess

They want it as a secondary format to standard, they don't want it dead.

Ate My Balls Redux posted:The current card pool but with random-rear end power cards inserted sounds like a much worse format than just Kaladesh forward i imagine the idea is "let's get stuff arena-only players would never otherwise get to touch" plus "let's introduce stuff that curbs things in the historic meta that would otherwise be too strong"

Hellsau posted:I think they're taking the opportunity to revive Brawl with new spoilers on Arena, so we got a whole bunch of cards today. Which is silly because the left hand at WotC that was promoting Brawl should have told the right hand at WotC that was developing Arena that they should loving program Brawl into their flagship digital product, but whatever. yeah I can't believe they didn't add Brawl to Arena in any playable form. what a fuckup!

Magic Underwear posted:Still struggling to envision what a good food deck looks like. I didn't play during energy but as a redesigned energy it seems both more expensive than energy and with pretty mediocre payoffs. Oko is by far the strongest synergy but that's not even food specific. it's worth remembering at the end of the day food is also straight-up just a bunch of artifact tokens and there's already a bunch of ways in today's standard to make use of that

Owlbear Camus posted:And whenever I resolve the Murder taped to the Rider under clover, it GTG instead of exiling to adventure. Is there some interaction I'm missing, or is Arena hosed in spite of all the fanfare about leaving Beta? the original cast of murderous rider's adventure needs a target to be valid, and you're doing something with the clover copy to make the original target invalid, causing it to fizzle and not resolve -- which includes the 'go-on-an-adventure exiling' part of resolving.
