Pablo Nergigante posted:Might be a question with no good answer but what’s my best bet for getting back into (constructed) paper magic these days considering the last time I played IRL was… 2002. I’ve been playing on arena for a few months but I’d like to play in person again. Is my best option really just buying single cards? It’s intimidating when even a budget deck can run like $100. I wish somebody would just give me a ton of cards lol Play kinda bad decks that you still have fun playing while losing, don't chase tier 1 nonsense if you're just playing FNM.

Merfolk is an honest modern deck for honest, good hearted people. Anyone impugning the merits of Merfolk is a callous and hard hearted villain.

Abisteen posted:Really easy question that I think I know the answer to: For a card like Imposing Grandeur in the vampire commander precon (4{R} Sorcery, Each player may discard their hand and draw cards equal to the greatest mana value of a commander they own on the battlefield or in the command zone.") Discarding your hand is not a cost of the spell, it is the spell's effect. If you have no cards in hand you may just draw. Costs will have a colon "Discard your hand: draw cards equal to…" or the text "As an additional cost…". Cactrot fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Nov 17, 2021 |

I'm sure I'll never need to actually investigate the shape of a holofoil in a tournament, but silver borders were cool and easier to pick out across the table than the shape of a 1cm shiny thing.

Lone Goat posted:I was going to ask if you really think someone is going to sneak an un-card into a tournament, but I remembered that I once judged a standard tournament - either provincials or regionals, so not a causal tourney - where someone was playing an illegal card that nobody noticed until round 6 or so. I was being sincere, I don't think people will try to use un-set cards in a Legacy or Vintage tournament as a result of this change. I am also sure that they're going to print something in this set that will become expensive because it is playable in Legacy or Vintage, and people will assume (probably rightly) that it will never be reprinted because it showed up first in an un-set.

Fantastic Foreskin posted:One part making them black bordered hopefully increases the chances people will allow the un-cards in commander, one part it makes printing easier, since they can't put black and silver borders on the same sheet. Changing how card legality is defined for tournaments to make sure it is easier for non-tournament players to play whatever cards they want in a casual format. Seems like a sound line of reasoning for changing things.

I initially didn't want the play historic because I was disappointed that it wasn't pioneer, then they introduced digital only cards and it turned me off even further. Then I saw that Merfolk deck posted here earlier and I thought about trying it out, but the idea of a format opening itself up to power level errata is a hard no from me.ShaneB posted:Pioneer is literally never coming to Arena. It's off the development roadmap. On today's stream they said that it still planned for the "far future"

Panderfringe posted:They're going to kill standard on arena. They'll keep it in paper, since a rotating format means they make more money. Given modern's popularity I think they're going to support competitive play more than they planned to when they killed the MPL, and figure they might as well have standard in paper again. But yeah, it's gone from Arena by the end of 2022, no question. Pioneer also isn't coming to Arena, at least not the paper version. If we get anything then we're getting an "alchemy" Pioneer. They aren't going to remove Standard from arena next year, what even is this take?
