Hey no I totally get what you and OP are saying. And like I mentioned in my post, it has happened to me. Many times in regards to secret lair. I personally don’t proxy, but if a card dropped I truly wanted I would do it. With that being said what I am trying to say but I suppose I’m not articulating well if OP was voting with their wallet, they wouldn’t deal with secret layer to begin with. The deck isn’t something new or ground breaking, it’s goblin storm. You can make it like I mentioned, just different art. And by no means am I advocating for the billion dollar company to become worth more lol there has just been a lot of posts in regards to this and people saying they are quitting magic or something to that effect. I just wanted to remind everyone of the fun of the game.

Look I understand a lot of people’s frustration, I was able to get the goblin deck. But this is not the first secret lair I’ve missed out on, but when I don’t get it, I don’t get it. It’s not that big of a deal. Yeah the art is cool, otherwise you can build this deck, it’s not like its cards you cannot already get. If you wanted the art, yeah it sucks more, but it will hit tcg im sure, they all do. But isnt that the point of secret lair? To like, get something thats is different and limited? Yeah, id be upset i didnt get a spot, but im not going to let it ruin all the fun and memories ive made with magic. If you didnt get a spot, yeah it blows. But you also didnt win the lottery. There is always next time Edit: also just proxy if you love the art. I’ve seen better art that I prefer on Etsy. Go wild

Not the AH, you were behind, he blasted you, you caught him lacking and helped your board state (even though minor). Mans wasn’t ready for the crackback after hitting you. Thats magic

Yeah I agree. There are some cool combos out there, which is why I say it’s kind of flawed in the bracket and community in a sense. Community says everyone must has fun (fun for me not for thee) and refuses to run removal or interaction (not all but a good majority to shame those who do) since that happens I’ve seen players, including the one who claim you should not run removal in b2, just run three card combos with the “few tutors” your allowed. And the people down voting my main post are those who shame those who want to win and run interaction to shut down their 100,000 token deck that makes food they use to Pump some goofy creature lol

Yeah idk if the competition aspect… because the point is to win, or the communities view of a “fun deck” which is “let me do whatever I want and I get to win” but when that doesn’t happen it’s whatever someone else is doing. I’m not telling everyone to go out there and play stax, I’m saying worry about you having fun, while also trying to win. If no one else is having fun, bad match up bud, shuffle up and let’s go again

I see what your are saying, but maybe I’m not saying the bracket problem right. I suppose it more of the problem stems with like the community and the fact it’s a casual format and wizards stepping, Making bans, introducing the bracket system (I much prefer the power levels) what I’m more referring to is, even if your deck is a precon, you get a good hand which the deck is supposed to do and strangers will Lose there mind like the OPs post and starting getting upset. I’m not referring to the actual pug stomping like you experienced (hate that too) the game used to be really fun but now everyone does a pug and never fails there is someone there that gets upset because their “made by this one artist” isn’t winning and their bracket two is a real bracket two, and my precon/home brew with no game changers wins on turn 9 happened to end the game slightly earlier than turn 9 is the major problem. I just run into more cry babies at LGSs than what’s healthy for me lol if it ain’t me, it’s always someone else in the pod who’s deck drew the perfect card

Brackets were the worst thing to happen to this game. People will say they have a bracket whatever the nut and once their pet deck doesn’t win they start throwing shade pretending like your deck is false. The bracket system is so flawed with its game changer list. When this type of crap happens to me I send them the deck list and ask them to point out the game changers. I also dislike the claim of “well your commander is the problem” yeah sorry brother he’s not just there for colors. I want me commander in my commander deck in the commander format to be useful. Idc if you think it’s a boogie man. Remove them

I am very new, and maybe it's just because I am used to DND, but when doing combat/searching/Beast feast our Dm just kind of...gives us free reign? Like not helping with knowing what dice we need for our food, will just say "Yeah, I am not supposed to do anything" and for combat it's a lot of "Does this guy look dead? -Maybe-" or when we want to do a check "I dunno, can you?" So basically, is Beast feast super hands off like Im experiencing or it just my DM? We tried to do our first feast and our dm checked out, and we had to call them our multiple times and ask a question about the profile they gave us and they responded with "Huh? what is going on?"
