I genuinely don't understand what people itt find so objectionable about the day/night template.

There's no reason your playtest cards should have authentic looking card backs. Functionally indistinguishable counterfeits are objectively bad because every one comes with a percent chance that some schlub is gonna get ripped off by them. If you're just cubing or whatever then your cards don't need authentic looking backs.

Not quite, they're turning themselves into a tcgplayer style marketplace middleman. You won't be able to pre-order from them the day before an event like that though probably

There are enough strategies that can beat Chariot that get unlocked once Epiphany is gone. They probably don't need to ban both.

Flooding out with a suspicious stowaway in your deck is a bummer. I keep looking at that card and wondering if it had constructed implications, it seems... so good to me, on its face

Pablo Nergigante posted:Modern trip report: It was super fun, I went 2-2 which I'm very happy about considering it was my first time playing modern ever. The decks I won against were some kind of artifact control deck and izzet blitz, and I lost against a Yorion blink deck and a bonkers affinity deck that got like 5 artifact creatures out on turn 2. I got two MH2 set boosters as a prize and pulled two Verdant Catacombs This is a really good result for a first try at any format, especially one with as many enfranchised players and as high a learning curve as modern, you should be proud of yourself

Hot take: standard has been bad for 15 years, gently caress it. Who cares. The game would be better off if standard was the newbie format where all the cards were dirt cheap and the pool was small. It's good for new player acquisition and shouldn't be fully abandoned, it can and should certainly be fun, but modern and Commander becoming the flagship paper formats would be/is better for the game. They've been better and more fun formats than standard for a long time. Standard being the volatile mess format where things come and go willy nilly is a fine identity for it tbh. Collectors boosters have driven the prices of the grand majority of basic game piece-versions of cards into the ground. Who gives a poo poo if they ban Esika's Chariot or whatever if it costs $3. If they just re-engage with pioneer a little bit and make it more like what we all wish standard actually was, ie a lower-power level and ideally lower cost format where new sets have a much larger and broader impact, I think that would be a much better long-term trajectory.

I would say standard has been some degree of bad since khans rotated, and hasn't really been GOOD good since like Ravnica 1 through Innistrad/RTR

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:yeah this is correct. I hated THS standard as it was dominated by two incredibly linear mono color decks and Stan Cifka’s Elixir of Immortality win con deck. Khans made standard very briefly fun until everyone figured out siege rhino was the best thing you could be doing. I often see people look back fondly on RTR/Theros and I'm just baffled. Pack Rat is the worst play pattern of all time

I guess I'm not understanding what's so bad about alchemy. I get that the rebalanced cards are in historic but... why is that bad? Historic was already getting the digital format treatment. There were already a bunch of hearthstone-esque cards. Is it just the bigger influx of them that people are frustrated with? Or what

I like the new Innistrad lands the best of any specialty basic and I think the fully colorless one are pretty cool too, though I wouldn't use them in a competitive event.

Longtusk Cub and Bristling Hydra were both basically shades. What does a constructed playable traditional shade even look like? 1/1 for B with "B: +1/+1 until eot"? Is that a good card? What if it had a combat ability?

Drewjitsu posted:Hammer tends to be weak against decks that have a lot of interaction. We tried out Bob, and I don't think that's the card you want. It's good against the decks that allow Bob to live, but you should be pretty good against those matchups already? Yeah I actually think Thoughtseize is the real reason to do the black splash, but then the hand disruption dovetails so well with Bob for the reasons you mention that they seem like a natural pairing. Then Bob is an easy side-out for more targeted tools in games 2 and 3 where you don't really want him

They more or less have. It's actually incredibly difficult to pass off a fake to somebody who has the proper tools and knows what they're looking for.
