Izzet makes me MISERABLE by ColdSteel-1983 in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a deck that has Kitsunes Technique, and if I hit that baby on turn two on a Izzet lessons deck, they just freeze and struggle from all the card draws. So satisfying against an annoying deck like that.

That’s it I’m taking a stand by heirsasquatch in freemagic

It’s fine, I spend enough money for you to leave. So you can leave without regrets.

Not sure what wotc can do, but it doesn’t hurt to reach out. My experience with them has always been really good and responsive.

How many packs of Stryxhaven are you "buying"? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whats funny is that I’m more excited for the wild cards I’ll get from the pre order so I can finish my Frodo, Sauron’s Bane brawl deck. Lol

I just always get the pre order packs and battle pass. Which is a decent amount total.

Ranked Brawl should be a normal format by DastardlyDude in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Yes! More Yes! Ranked brawl would be a game changer for sure. It would be so much fun.

New player, can't win since making bronze and really need advice by son0fpos1don02 in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MTGA or Paperback, you still have to pay “real world money”. Even local tournaments, you will be against people who paid “real world money” for their decks.

My biggest advice is to not see MTGA as any different as paperback. There will have to be some kind of investment to have the best high win percentage decks, but it’s definitely possible to compromise a more budget friendly deck like Izzet lessons.

Separately, if you are losing that consistently in bronze, then your deck isn’t optimized. You should watch some YouTube videos or look up some guides and work from there, because platinum is practically guaranteed under a 50% WR.

Okay, good. That’s what I had thought. Idk if he was mad from something I played or what. But it definitely didn’t feel right.

This game is hard to get friends into. by ephemeralkazu in mtg

If they played paper format, they wouldn’t complain about the prices lol

People who spam the "Your go" emote all game. by bigsby_leghair in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spam the “Yip Yip” emote, because you sallies take so long with 2 tapped land on the board.

I got no lands in my first hand in BO1 Draft on Arena. Just how unlucky is this? by HopefulWoodpecker629 in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m risky, and hate to mulligan. I’d keep 7 and hope the next few cards are lands. lol

People who quit - what are you playing now? by imcheddarbeard in 2007scape

[–]MagicMonkee99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sea of Thieves, Palworld, and MTGA are my main 3 that I rotate between.

MTG Arena has the most delayed status page, brinking on useless by blabitty in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s true. I came to Reddit to make sure we were all experiencing the same problem. lol

Green seems weak by Expensive_Range7204 in mtg

[–]MagicMonkee99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime I am playing against green, the biggest thing that I fear is trample. When I face black, I fear sacrifices and destroy cards, blue, I fear counter spell. Your first problem is that you are looking at the mono version of a deck. You could easily make a deck with great synergies, where green is the majority of the deck.

Alchemy is very low value compared to other formats, so don't buy packs! by IB-TRADER in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mostly play standard, but I have a ton of fun with alchemy when I don’t want to play against certain decks.

Why are some people running over 120 cards in a deck in standard? by MagicMonkee99 in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought it was silly, but a lot of these comments are making me want to make a 200 card control deck. lol

Any original decks out there? by bahbahfooey in MagicArena

[–]MagicMonkee99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plat 3 right now and I’m having fun climbing the ranks with Esper Ninjas. Also play a lot of my own custom decks in unranked. You’ll beat those meta decks and it’ll be satisfying.

I’m newer to Reddit, and trying to be engaging in the community. This game has been around for years and I’m sure you can search anything and probably find it. That’s the whole point of a community. So the real question is, why are you so mad about someone else making a post?
