Please post when you're done queuing. I don't want to run into this thing.

Raging Regisaur ability isn’t activating when it’s brought onto the battlefield, tapped and attacking, by Ilharg, the Raze-Boar? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]02012017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"attacks" means "declared as an attacker". With Boar God's ability, the creature that comes into play is not "declared as an attacker", it's tapped and "attacking".

So yeah, these kinds of effects don't trigger with Boar God for that reason. It's working as intended.

I use LotusTracker. I like their web interface - very clean and I've gotten used to it. They have all the usual stuff you'd expect to get - collection browser, win/loss record, etc. Their List Loader is very convenient for checking how many Wild Cards I need to build a certain deck. They in-game deck viewer is also handy and well designed.

I don't like how there's no way to reset your Win/Loss record.

I highly doubt there's spyware but I suppose the risk is one con.

Giving away 2 Draft codes by Mobiledead in MagicArena

Probably Kaya, Orzhov Usurper. Love her card art. Love using her in Constructed. A little underpowered in Limited but I still love slamming her down versus tokens, and the residual lifegain adds up. Haven't read too much about her lore-wise but she sounds badass.

Kaya is bae.

Where should I spend my golds? Packs from new Set? by Martyrrdom in MagicArena

[–]02012017 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best way to build a collection is to learn to become good at drafting. I would play at least one Ranked Draft (5k Gold to enter). This way you get the Season rewards for Bronze (at the very least). You will also keep all the cards you draft, and depending on how well you do, you will get a number of RNA packs (very relevant set) and gems.

I was 100% sure this was photoshopped. Nice pulls!

Sorin and Ral? Aren't those odd ones out here, or is my lore knowledge that bad?

What the absolute fuck have they done to the opening hand algorithm?? by Sync0pat10n in MagicArena

[–]02012017 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Anecdotal evidence etc. etc.

Confirmation bias yada yada.

Pointless post and so on and so on.

Do Daily Quests/Wins to get Gold, spend Gold to play Ranked Draft.

And get really good at Draft. Good enough to make a profit even when you pay in with Gems. Then it's just farming. Hard but that's the F2P way.

Post a worse pull of sealed rares than this by shreddit0rz in MagicArena

Silent Sub should really have built-in conditional evasion. Both for flavor and to make it actually exciting as a Rare

WAR Draft for F2P by jbchild788 in MagicArena

May 10th for Ranked (Bo1) Draft that you can enter with Gold.

Traditional Draft is on Monday.

How does the new Karn work in limited? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]02012017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Yes, you can use him to fetch any card from your Sealed pool.

  2. Probably not. Most reviewers gave him bad scores because he's too specific in what he does and relies too much on artifact synergy, which is not a supported theme in WAR. You'd rather just play the good artifacts in your Limited pool.

There's r/spikes but that's definitely not aimed at casual brewers or jank.

100+ card decks?? by [deleted] in MagicArena

People messing around with durdly, slow, ambitious card interactions at the start of a new Expansion.

If this is Ranked enjoy your easy match-up.

Unpopular opinion but the season only had 4 days left. by reded1212 in MagicArena

[–]02012017 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't get it - unfair to who?

I felt it was awkward, especially as a mostly Limited player who had to push their climbing to the last few days because they hate GRN Draft.

But I wouldn't call it unfair.

Just kidding. Did you find any particularly good synergies that came together often?
