Love the art, I really should make a librarian/archivist Vorthos deck one of these days. The abilities are great, sad that they only trigger once a turn but the triggers themselves are more powerful than expected.
YES BARD CLASS LET’S GO!
This was a really well-explained hack, I loved reading this, well done! So fascinating to see that bot logic runs client-side, that the code just creates two ‘seats’ for players to connect to, and you exploited all that info in a masterful way. Bravo!
I find it counter intuitive that the two colour pairings are on the inside and the three colour pairings are on the outside.
Congrats kaiyo!
I like this one much better than the original colour pie that was posted here, this one’s much easier to read and more intuitive <3
wow, in practice the changes to Limited might not be very big with this new type of booster, but in the history of MtG this is a humongous change. For the first time since 1993 Draft boosters will have 14 playable cards instead of 15. This changes the fabric of MtG. I feel that in the long run this is a very good shift, all of the problems highlighted in the article are very real, and it seems like they’ve addressed them well with the Play Booster. Fascinating stuff, I can’t wait to hear the Limited podcasts analysing how this changes the game.
Here’s some resources that I use often:
- mtggoldfish has meta decks and user submitted decks for almost all popular formats out there. They include a meta % to show how much a deck is played.
- for more competitive meta results I use mtgdecks.net, where you can filter on recent tournaments or MTGO leagues within the format you’re interested in.
- lastly there’s aetherhub, which I use less these days but is also a good source for meta deck finding.
- if you’re looking for meta discussions and deck techs, you can still find them on reddit, e.g. the /r/spikes subreddit or the subreddit for the format of your choice, for Pioneer there’s /r/PioneerMTG
Until they do something to make standard more affordable I don’t think they’ll succeed in this revitalisation. Either you print new standard challenger decks every year that actually contain all the game pieces needed for a Tier standard deck, or people will continue to play non rotating formats where the decks are as expensive as standard but will last them a lot more years than standard decks
