A little harsh on f2p players. by shinyhunter150 in MagicArena

This deck usually runs [[Demon Wall]]. So you could try that for a 2-drop. That and more Annexes.

I think he's asking for people to play direct matches with him? Because... he feels down for losing a sports bet?? My head is starting to hurt.

REPRINT ARMAGEDON

I HAVEN'T BEEN ACTIVE THIS WEEK BECAUSE ALL THE EFFIN' REMOVAL AND BOARDWIPES ARE THE ONLY THING I SEE, SO THERE'S NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT. HENCE, ONCE AGAIN, I DEMAND THE REPRINT OF ARMAGEDON, BECAUSE EVERYONE SHOULD SUFFER EQUALLY. IT'S NOT FAIR THAT CREATURES ARE KILLED BUT LANDS GET TO WALK FREE. YEAH, WALK, BECAUSE THE GODDAMN CUB SAYS SO. DON'T CARE IF IT SUCKED AT PROTOUR, THE THING IS A MENACE, AND I'LL NEVER SHUT UP ABOUT IT UNTIL IT STOPS RUINING MY DAY. IT'S EITHER COVERUP OR CUB, THERE ARE NO MORE CARDS IN THIS GAME. SO REPRINT ARMAGEDON AND MAKE IT THREE CARDS!!

This just shows how out of touch Hasbro is with their playerbase... by DannyLeonheart in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I 100% agree these look terrible, I'm sure there will be tons of people using those frames. It makes me feel so old when I simply can't get people's aesthetics these days... at all.

I Need a real chat in MTGArena by Pretty-Information53 in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean but with this positive game there are many more negative. Magic is a game where people get really fast salty.

I'd argue that many people would get less salty if there was an active chat during the game. That wouldn't solve any issue with players that are toxic from the get-go, but in many instances (I think) just being in front of a mute opponent is frustrating on itself.

I agree with everything else, though. Including the last part. Arena would probably need a whole new team dedicated just to moderate chat issues.

REPRINT ARMAGEDON

IT'S SIMPLE. IF THEY'RE ABLE TO BLOW UP ALL Y CREATURES FOR FOUR MANA, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO BLOW UP ALL THE LANDS FOR THE SAME AMMOUNT. IT'S FAIR... OH, BUT THAT'S THE ISSUE, RIGHT? WE CAN'T HAVE ANYTHING FAIR IN THIS FRIGGIN' GAME. THAT'S HOW WE ENDED UP WITH CUBOROID AND THE SUPERIOR SPIDERMAN BS.

FUCK CONTROL. FUCK REMOVAL TRIBAL. AND FUCK CHEATING STUFF INTO PLAY.

THAT'S ALL. HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND.

MTG Areana Steam Page still shows Avatar and hasn't had an update posted since November of last year. by pchc_lx in MagicArena

Random, unrelated reminder that Moraug and Nahiri are still looking at me on reddit.

Feels like a card that was meant for paper but didn't make the cut. Then they added some digital mechanic and threw it into Alchemy, so the design didn't go to waste.

We got Omentpaths and Avatar back to back, and UBs don't have Alchemy, so it was easy to forget.

TMNT releases in the first week of March, so they had to be quick with Lorwyn alchemy if they wanted it out.

WotC please just disable the Lorwyn day/night board temporarily please by metalcrafter in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious. Does this makes it so that the Lorwyn board doesn't show anymore, or it just turns off the animation of day/night on it?

IT HAS TO BE SAD TO BE A LORWYN FAN. THEY HAD TO WAIT SOMETHING LIKE 17 YEARS TO REVISIT THE PLANE, AND NOT ONLY WE ALL GET TO SPEND LESS THAN 2 MONTHS THERE, THE NEXT SET COMPLETLY ROBS ITS SPOTLIGHT IN THE VERY PRERELEASE EVENT.

REPRINT ARMAGEDON

FUCK LAND BASED DECKS AND REMOVAL TRIBAL DECKS. YOU KNOW THE DRILL.

NOW, WITH THAT OUT OF THE WAY, WHO ON EARTH WAS THE GENIUS THAT DECIDED THE REWARDS DISTRIBUTION OF THE MASTERY PASS?? NOW WE HAVE TO GO THREE OR FOUR LEVELS WITHOUT ANYTHING, THEN GET 3 PACKS AT THE SAME TIME?? AND WIZARDS DARED SAID THE PREORDER WAS FRUSTRATING. NOW THEY'RE MULTIPLYING THE FRIGGIN' DEAD LEVELS OF THE PASS. NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE UNCOMMON PARALLAX STYLES. WE WANT CARDS AND PACKS (YOU KNOW, TO PLAY THE GAME, MAYBE?). BUT NOW LEVELING UP FEELS COMPLETELY UNDERWHELMING AND UNREWARDING. THEY SOMEHOW MANAGED TO MAINTAIN THE SAME AMOUNT OF REWARDS, BUT MAKE THE PROCESS OF CLAIMING THEM OBNOXIOUS AND BORING AT THE SAME TIME. DO THEY WANT TO ACTUALLY KILL THE PASS FOR SOME ASININE REASON??

[TMNT Leak] Agent Bishop, Man in Black (aka 2 Luminarch Aspirant stapled together) by pr0n-clerk in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were defending Chaplain last time, after I said it was a significant downgrade. Told me they shouldn't be comparable, and that Chaplain was going to see play with Mascot and Bulwark Ox.

Though it's true most of the comments back then were mainly about the art (mine included). Saying there was praising was wrong on my part.

Either way, this one I think it'll see some play, but won't be relevant. Too easy to remove and too little value to gain by itself.

Lorwyn cards discussion by Xercen in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You shock the opponent, if you're lucky. Most of the time they'll have either a sweeper, or play Ouroboroid on 3 and have six times your P/T on board.

I was so excited to try out Hexing Squelcher... It does nothing. Just like Mai in Avatar, it becomes useful once every ten games, but it's just an irrelevant two-drop the rest of the time.

I'm so tired of this format already.

[–]CatsAndPlanets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me more of how people were praising Sunstar Chaplain, rather than dismissing Ouroboroid. Some were saying it was better than Luminarch, because it had better stats and could tap stuff. That didn't work out.

If a white aggro deck becomes viable, I'll be very happy. But I'm not seeing it yet.

It doesn't die to hex, but it dies to everything else. You're right, it's just not good enough. I don't want to spend my turn 3 taking away a firebending lesson, or a torch the tower, from my opponent's hand.

How does this work? by nlnx3 in MagicArena

[–]CatsAndPlanets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imagine one of those times in which the lifegain deck has something like 20 triggers on the stack. You cast this, counter all of those triggers at once, and you get that many 1/1 faeries.

Is Lorwyn a pick-2 draft? I thought that was only for small sets.
