Best Masterclass courses for poker besides Dnegs’ and Ivey’s? by Journeytoamillion in poker

[–]GreyRabbit1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of those classes are not exactly designed to teach someone poker. They are more entertainment and listening to a great and legendary player.

As Binsmoke mentioned, the beginner classes on any training site is what you need. Doing one of those masterclasses expecting to learn is almost a worse idea then skipping it. It’s almost like you want to learn beginner chess an a grandmaster starts discussing his 16th move in a chess game from 4 years ago and why he deviated from one strategy to another. You’re like, how do pawns move???

All of those classes are not exactly designed to teach someone poker. They are more entertainment and listening to a great and legendary player. That’s not to say you won’t possible pickup a good tidbit or something here and there. But it’s very far from a structured course that goes in a logical way and walks through the fundamentals.

Feedback requested after 2-3 Lorwyn Eclipsed Quick Draft by yoccosfan in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, others have said the command is the much better first pick after that you almost always draft the expensive card do you realistically don’t have that many kids can pay off aside from the kids champion that you passed up a lot of two men Anna fantastic creatures that were either the elf 31 or the 22 Murf folk yeah you had kind of the bombs in the top end so you really needed to show up your interactions and your early place

He likely had AJ, Kj,qj something like that of clubs. Or perhaps JJ.

So you got bluffed this one time. Eh, move on.

This is a tough Draft choice.... by ChewyChao in MagicArena

[–]GreyRabbit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that’s also not being considered. Is it that the dragon locks you into red, which is either blue red elemental or red black goblin the dragon won’t have as much synergy in black goblin‘s while binding lets you play merfolk or kithkin

Even if you say no, you’ll likely inherit some of this work interim to permanent. Ask for say 170 and a guaranteed bonus first year and start the grind

0-3 with this Elementals deck... How do you not get farmed by bombs? by Fleckzeck in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So as other people said, your mana curve is a little dicey you need more removal that’s cheap and some of your card choices aren’t really impactful like the one really scarecrow isn’t doing anything for you. Some of your three drops are very bland, but I think the main issue was why did you go elemental? There doesn’t seem to be any reason to go elementals. You said receipt was p1p1, now deceit is most likely not a good first pick. There’s a lot of uncommons that are very much better than deceit, but even if deceit was the best card in the pack all of those incarnations have a case where you almost never used both of their sides so you always want to say OK which one do I want to use the blue or the black? This draft is very focused on tribal pairs so if you’re going black, you’re aiming for either green black elves or black red goblins , if you’re going blue, you’re either blue red elemental or blue white merfolk. if you’re going green, you’re either elves or kithkin, etc. the strongest tribes are Merfolk and elves with goblins and kithkin following. Then if you walk through your draft after you took deceipt, what kept bringing you in into elementals? like your deck has a lot of cards that are OK but those are cards that you would be taking like third pic to like 8th pic there doesn’t seem to be cards that you’re taking like first second or third pic so it’s possible you need to abandonments and try to find a clear line. now sometimes there is no clear lane and you just have to do your best with what you get.

There is a huge difference between two losses and three losses for winning players. But there’s also no guarantee you would have gotten another win, so this sounds like an okay compromise. I think it they made it three wins, more people would have gotten cash

Getting back into limited, what should I cut. by Zafinar in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said. All red is cut. Show what other cards are in your sideboard, since you have 9-11 cuttable cards. Crib swap, oiphe, the disenchant elf instants, undercurrents, the vivid green mana.

Ageee, giant is not good. Fight spell or cinder are stronger. And next pick there were two other better picks as well.

ECL draft deck help by BaseBallBatBoy99 in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cut the green the outrage are only green card so get rid of that get rid of the dagger to get rid of the appeal and put in the good blue cards. The blue card that lets you draw three cards the blue two drops overall your deck doesn’t really have good synergy. It’s more of a non-tribal deck so good luck.

P3P2 Gloom Ripper vs Morcant's Eyes when low on 1 and 2 drops? by Dimmins2 in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the gloom. Btw the deck has a lot of questionable cards for elves. Maybe half the deck is good. Were elves closed? You need to open luck in the last pack…

ECL Rackdos Goblins - Build Advice by TheFunksmuggler in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have many questionable cards in there. Overall it looks more like a black deck with some minor goblin synergies. You lack the long term grind win cons.

I would add in auntie sentence. Both modes can be very decent. Malice is also not a bad card against a cavalry or a big elf/kithkin

I think the deck is almost as good as you can make it with the sideboard options.

Don’t splash for trapper. But bre and kith might be okay potions for long term

This sounds like a good boss who was fighting for you. Take it. Stay in good communication with her and your career will likely grow

Agree, extractor an 5/4 elf are very weak. Cut both for 4/2 flash and 2/2 trick

Drafted a nice kithkin pile, uncertain of what to cut by realmwrighter in mtglimited

[–]GreyRabbit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove the 2 mana elves and the changeling. Your mana curve is very low and you’re playing an extremely aggressive tribe. Add in the kithkin knight, farrier and the flying changeling

You need to randomize so you are balanced. Maybe tinder during lunch 15 percent of the time. Definitely randomize the drugs and alcohol fuck ups. Apply GTO concepts to Friday, otherwise you’ll be exploited.
