I'd personally would like to see another collab with Games Workshop so we can see more Tyrannid choices for a Tyrannid vs Sliver deck.
Me and my wife will only play EDH now if we can get a good size group. Otherwise there's other 1v1 games to play. Hell I'll even play a video game and I rarely do that nowadays unless I'm paid to. I get too bored with those.
That's a pretty bad sign if their playerpool is so small. Though I'm surprised they didn't come up with a "join first available" event option as a lot of people would probably play whatever. You could even let players select to opt out of specific options in the join first available to keep it from becoming a rapid queue of shit.
That's LITERALLY the complaint. It's not a "perfectly fine deck" if you're being charged way too much of it. An all common red aggro/speed burn deck is not "perfectly fine" if I'm charging you a hundred bucks to buy it. As I've said multiple times already - at $80, the things better have much better mana bases to them. If they want to cheap out on those, then drop the damn price.
I still say the worst ever decision Arena made was making one of the daily quests WIN 10 games instead of PLAY 10 games. I know for me I was just getting burned out trying to grind my way up to those without doing a copy/paste of whatever was the current tier 1.
That is the biggest complaint about the game in general for everyone not a "collector" Retard like Rudy.
That's basically what it already is and that's the problem. Most of the time Quick Draft and Bo1 are mostly fine (unless you're a few weeks in and the set sucks ass) but if you queue up in the weird hours in Bo3 the game will start desperation matching you against literally anyone. Silver players getting wrecked by Diamonds is common. If it was up to me I'd get rid of best of one and give people the choice of Bo1 drafted against bots or Git Gud Bo3 but I'm pretty uninvested in limited and only do a few matches every new standard set.
I mean I don't complain if the mana bases in those "intro" commander decks that are like $20~30 are weak. Those are intro, they're not that expensive, so they can have the cheaper lands. Don't charge me premium prices and give me dollar store shit.
TFW my 5C deck plays exactly one of each basic..and wouldn't even do that if like 5 cards didn't exist
Well, no, see, because if it was a reasonable price-point, it'd be a perfectly workable deck out of the box in a casual format. Here's the Sevinne precon. This deck is not one of their first forays into Commander decks - the first suite being bad is forgivable. This is well after several solid, great designs. This is the one that Dockside comes from, and is (ostensibly) supposed to be about flashback.
Ok if you mean "a better play experience out of the box" I'll grant you that but several of their recent commander precons are really solid. (Like I have not touched the b/w party deck from BDCL - I got it purely as a lark and it's dumb how many games it keeps winning.) Especially compared to earlier stuff. Like I said way back, the U/B/R wizard deck from 2017 is horrible with multiple divergent lines of play. It's a massive mana hog with like... 2 ramp cards in the whole thing. The face commander makes temporary token copies of your wizards and the deck barely has any ETB stuff in it.
"let's make a R/G enrage commander and NOT put any green fight cards in the deck!"
Ahh, but you get -two- cascades! One to flip into something terrible, and the other is the real one! The backup commander's theme is also a little awkward and doesn't really fly with the included cards, but the deck on the whole will still probably be playable enough.
I think it's... It's in my realm of passable-not-great. It was a huge step up from the original suite of decks, and while it presented three different commander opportunities (etb/copies, spells-from-grave, activated-abilities (whoops forgot to include good activated abilities)), it had some good-enough cards and felt wizard-y. But yeah, compared to modern stuff like Party Time, they've gotten way better.
Ehhh, just wait a year for the amazon dump! Easy sell! I got some of the New Capenna commander decks for $15 on Amazon about a year after they'd come out.
I can't even be bother to grind out 10 games, yet less 10 wins. That sounds retarded.
Speaking of which, I think he said he didn't buy booster boxes for Commander Masters but went hard on the Commander Decks this time around. Wonder if distributors were offering to dump them on him for an attractive price so now he's just trying to move them.
"let's make a deck, call it Eldrazi Unbound, and put just like 10 of them in"
Can someone explain how the tenth doctor isn't the worst card ever printed.
You miss the best part. They made Earth a Plane in Magic.
Actually what made me laugh is when i was looking at the deck the other day, while it had 3 "primary" commanders (you can tell because they were foil) it was actually stocked with a 4th commander that was so much better...
Ugh, It's so fucking lame. They made the doctor lame as shit with their "UwU I wuv nerd culture, look at these references to the silly parts" and completely ignore the fact that if you push the 10th far enough he will fucking end you.
Because there's doctor 11, as well as 12 and 13 in a separate deck.
I've. Tried. To. Unsee. That. You. Motherfucker.
That's exactly how it's going to be played at the table though. Like Beamtown Bullies looks like a funny good time commander and then you inevitably use him to give people a free Leveler.
I like her, but she's a lot less scary than is Inalia. Part of the reason Inalia doesn't have that bad of a reputation anymore is that people quickly realized: it's always correct to target the Inalia player first. It's not fun to both be hated out of the game immediately, and for that to be the correct choice every time.while it had 3 "primary" commanders (you can tell because they were foil) it was actually stocked with a 4th commander that was so much better...
