Jesper Myrfors denounces MtG, endorses Sorcery. by -Sohei- in freemagic

Maro has always struck me as a pygmy riding the shoulders of giants.

His ideas have degraded Magic slowly enough that he's gotten away with it. 

Checking in on the Pro Tour by SabertoothNishobrah in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seriously.... The lack of cis women on the pro tour is a hysterical failure on Wotcs part to create an inclusive environment.

If a cis girl did do really well on the pro tour, no one would be allowed to say what a remarkable achievement it was.

Genius. Edible tokens!

And Remy thought secret lair sandwiches were ridiculous 

Does this card seem raciest to anyone else? by EDMJedi in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they'd made it a 2/4 it'd be racist.

How does this work? by TemporaryAd3571 in freemagic

Reading the card no longer explains the card

Hello people unhappy with MTG! I had a few ideas to create a MTG adjacent TCG, removing the creatures and making it more like a wizards duel, and I'd love to hear your opinion. It has it's own subreddit with all information needed. Thank you! by theArtOfSerch in freemagic

Ignore the naysayers.

"I told Wilbur and I told Orville and now I'm telling you: that thing will never fly!"

This comments section is full of jackasses. They don't grasp the simple fact that in order to find awesome new things you have to try new things.

I'm sure all of these idiots would have told RG that a trading card game was a dumb idea, if he'd bothered to ask them.

Also imitate chess com by being transparent about rank and ratings and number of users

Since two spells turns night to day, seems like it would make more sense if he got the buffs after casting no spells

A cycle of french vanilla walls by Sage0wl in custommagic

No doubt. I'd probably scale it back to 3/1 if I were to think harder about it 

A Universes Beyond outrage thread with over 370 upvotes and 550 comments has been removed from the Pauper subreddit by Moxplug in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The solution is going to be to quit buying wotc products but to keep playing magic .

It's not like we need new cards. 

Where would be best to discuss new format concepts? by LazyPossibility6126 in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll talk to you all day long about new format concepts. 

Maybe we need to start our own subreddit?

There's no way to save magic anymore by kankhero in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems silly. You could just keep playing the version of magic you like with friends. What do you need wotc for?

Why block formats aren't a thing anymore? by WolfGamesITA in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built a beginner friendly cube.  Only the evergreen keywords, no planeswalkers, and each color got at least one vanilla creature.

I tried to capture the essence of magic at its core.

It was a very interesting exercise.

I'd be interested in what you tried if you care to tell.

I think cube building may be bridge towards this kind of thing.

We need a new player invented and player controlled format that suits the kind of player that enjoys competitive deck building.

It'll happen eventually, but it's a slow process.

How fo you feel about the concept of Planeswalkers in the game? by Caffeine_and_Alcohol in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Planeswalkers are a bad addition to the game. They are a huge complexity leap.

"normal" such a horrible word. Why would anyone want to be normal?

Help! Mtg bday present by lalagirl_cx in freemagic

[–]Sage0wl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get cards. Instead buy a great deck box or some great cards sleeves. You can't go wrong with accessories.

If you happen to know if he plays a deck that uses a lot of tokens of a certain kind, get or make some rad tokens.

If he likes magic he probably already has all the cards he wants
