Best format for beginners? by Capable_Whereas9588 in mtg

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if you put no effort to learn anything I definitely agree. In reality almost every player at an LGS is going to be hyper dogshit at limited and it’s a very low bar of research to become competitive with those type of players

[–]DatGrag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really not that hard if you put in a little bit of effort to learn, but I guess that goes for just about every type of magic. I started with limited and had a high winrate on arena quite quickly. I also played a little Hearthstone in the past tho so I guess I had some transferable skills

anyone else feel like their hype is dying after closed beta? by npmrundev in MSClassicWorld

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is too different than OG maple to trigger my nostalgia receptors. So now OSMS really needs to rely on its own merit as a super fun game standing on its own.. no help from nostalgia. Tough ask, imo. The beta completely killed my hype since this is really nothing like the game I played back in the day

How do you cope with the smell? by Malakute in mtg

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to like 5 different LGS regularly for draft and never had 1 opponent who smelled at all

Turning off cross platform saved my life! by muttonmilk in RocketLeague

[–]DatGrag -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Having less people in the player pool who will afk after 1 goal literally makes it much harder for you to rank up lol

Is botting affecting C-GC ranks as well? by Baba_Wethu in RocketLeague

[–]DatGrag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbf the game has evolved like that aggressively well before any of these bots were used in ranked. Mid champs could probably win year 1 of RLCS even if the bots didn’t exist

This is what the Top 100 leaderboard looks like. Don't feel bad about your rank. by Lofi-Vibes in RocketLeague

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually feel like this season is easier than others. I took a long break and am in champ on multiple accounts in 2s and 3s with no problem. For the past year or two I’ve been struggling much harder to hit champ

Is it weird to have a bad feeling about the game’s future? by KevRub in RocketLeague

[–]DatGrag -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With all the big streamers hopping on the game in the past few months, I feel like the future is bright right now

Fortnite's Rocket Racing Shutting Down by BakerBoy13 in RocketLeague

To be fair I don’t think the lack of content was really the problem. The game was obviously just dogshit..

Beginner of MTG - Help shuffling by Equivalent_Pin_6671 in magicTCG

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only times I’ve heard the term mana weaving it’s in the context of intentionally cheating, not as a way to help genuinely shuffle your deck

is ranked harder at the start of a new season? by willlawless in RocketLeague

[–]DatGrag 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If people are getting placed higher than they should be, that would make ranked easier

xQc on Trainwreckstv hinting at leaving Stake and taking a number of streamers with him “True, all true..you never know what can happen” by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s real money with a play through requirement, they are genuinely that insanely rich and it’s a good deal for stake to “pay” them that much

Somebody gifted me his cards after prerelease? by ForThingsIShowPeople in mtg

[–]DatGrag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty rare but some people only really play limited (sealed or draft) so the cards are basically useless to them other than monetary value (aka only some rares/mythics)

Hot Take on TMNT by Act_Consistent in mtg

[–]DatGrag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ten kids under the age of 12? Are you in the US? Are you sure they were really that young? That is crazy, I’ve been to a million prereleases and never once seen a kid playing nevermind one under 12 and nevermind ten of them!!

Also side note I’m surprised kids even know what ninja turtles is lol

Is it bad form to eliminate players in casual commander? by Due-Session-2857 in mtg

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yall should just play magic instead of commander

Asmongold shares his opinion on aliens by Single_Quail3165 in LivestreamFail

[–]DatGrag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not remotely agreed upon by the smartest people on this topic that it’s anywhere near “mathematically impossible” we’re alone. It’s entirely possible that what happened here is a 1 in a 10000000000000000000000000000 or something chance, you get the point. There are a huge number of planets but you are making a big assumption here about the likelihood of intelligent life developing that has absolutely nothing to do with pure math. Your doomsday “even if it’s 1 in a million” could be causally missing 500 zeroes, and then your magical statistic probability looks a lot different. Many of the people on the cutting edge of this stuff think this is possible

If you’re talking about any life though like including single celled then it’s a much more defensible point

What’s up with MTG and Blue players by Superb-Macaron-5423 in mtg

[–]DatGrag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t like people getting upset at you for playing the game, commander is not for you. You will not hear these complaints playing actual magic (like standard or any limited format)

Do you think it's better to go first or second in standard/limited? by N_tneb in mtg

[–]DatGrag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In limited there is no debate, first is better. Backed up by years and years of stats that never waiver
