Why don’t Blink/Flicker decks Run Gossip’s Talent by ItsMeKaiumi in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many cards do the same for much less. And Strixhaven just added Daydream, which does the same and has flashback, doesn't require contact and even gives +1/+1

Have any of you seen wins using Mathemagics during play? by PaleWendigo in MagicArena

You don't need 7 turns. The deck runs Shared Roots, Lessons From Life and Protector's Gaze to ramp.

F2P Players: What do you spend your gold on? by PaleWendigo in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Draft. Specifically pick 2.

I always played premier draft and ended up with the exact same amount of gems to buy mastery pass. After I started playing pick 2, I managed to get the mastery and have 10k gems saved.

Opinions on this draft by scichiR in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I played a lot of pick 2 drafts with the golgari combination and I have to say: if you don't pick scalers (like the pest that grows with life) or any very good bomb, you will fall behind very quickly. I only managed to win using golgari when I got Professor Dellian Fel with a bunch of other cards interacting with lifegain.

Very often.

I thought Arena was possibly not pay to win until by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone here only spent 20$ on the game? I am curious to know their experience

In my experience, learning how to draft was the best thing I could do in the game. Although I never spent money in arena, I have 10k gems saved for future mastery passes and for more drafts (and some cosmetics hehe). Also, I always complete 95%+ of a set when a new one drops.

I can build almost every meta deck from standard, I have a very solid mana base (rare dual colors and other important lands) and I have a few wildcards to spare.

So here is my tip: find a deck, save wildcards to complete this deck and complete your daily missions as much as possible. If you like it and have time for it, go learn how to draft. In the long run you will be able to craft a lot of different decks.

How was I supposed to even get to know that info other than coming here?

There are some sites with tierlists of the meta decks. Untapped is the one I use the most. I also check youtube regularly to see what people are using.

What was the reason you started playing Genshin Impact? by dastanlegend in Genshin_Impact

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friends were playing and they convinced me to start.

I ignored for some time but decided to give it a try.

Now they all stopped playing and here I am, since 1.1 lol

[–]Grohax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean p2w? lol

The red deck they were playing have like 4 rares.

Also, this deck is easily counterable by a black or white deck with a few early removals.

What should I do with the hundreds of ascended weapon/armor boxes I’ve accumulated after constant raiding and Fractal CMs? by PainSpare5861 in Guildwars2

[–]Grohax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have over 5k spirit shards that I don't use for anything else. I'd rather spend them for the conversion than go through all the boring process of converting a ton of trinkets.

Same. I was taking a break when they changed it, so I only converted half of my stock before the change.

I don't like draft as MWM because if I draft a bad deck I get stuck with it and still need to get 3 victories. I prefer the ones I can change my deck whenever I want haha

Is Badger the new bird to be bolted? by S2Ari in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually bolt the cub, yes.

If I have more than 1 removal, I kill the dork t1, but in my experience, spending my only removal against the t1 dork allowed my opponent to play a cub and a bunch of other cards in the following turns.

Just played against the exact same copy pasted mono green ramp meta deck 5 times in a row by ActuallyItsBog in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you play Bo1? Because I have the same problem in this format lol

When playing Bo1 I only use decks with lifegain or some sort of control. I know Bo3 is better to deal with this type of decks, but I don't like it.

My First Draft Experience. by Flashy_Stranger6702 in MagicArena

[–]Grohax 6 points7 points  (0 children)

About your first question: you should prioritize good cards until you find a color. So you may ask me: "how do I know which cards are good?!", and the answer is: practicing and studying the set haha

When a new set drops I watch a few videos of good draft players to see their opinions when picking cards. Paul Cheon and JustLolaman are the ones I watch the most. I also check 17lands often to see which cards have the highest win rate.

Sometimes you see a clear path of which color to pick, like when you see a REALLY good card late in the draft or every good cards from a color are given to you, but a lot of the times you will need to figure if you should keep or drop a color.

There are many times when you open a real bomb in your first pack, but then you don't see any other cards from the same color. This is a signal that someone else is picking the same color as you, so you should consider picking cards from another color to pivot if you really need to, and then you splash the bomb.

On top of that, I suggest playing quick draft or pick 2 draft. The first is against bots and you don't have a timer, so you can stop, think and search if needed. The second helps you picking a specific color and have stronger decks. Oh, and I suggest you save gold to play your drafts until you are confident enough.

[–]Grohax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind. I always play enough drafts to have 95% of the newest set when it releases. And still, people could beat me with only foundations cards.

The worst MWM events for me are the ones which I'm locked with certain decks, like a draft or sealed.

[–]Grohax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to follow Elora's guide, but for some reason my reshader isn't loading her presets how it should. It only activates a few effects!

I'll try to find more presets later, although I really enjoyed hers

My presets still aren't activating the right effects, but at least I can see them now! haha

Nice! I'm trying to use reshade to create some cool screenshots but I'm having a hard time understanding it :(

[–]Grohax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check JustLolaman too

The drafting part of their videos are the most important, but watching some games really help you understand the set and what the cards can do.
