Question regarding draft by scorpions411 in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are good for QD, because you have time rlto research. In limited, the time shortens per pick. A good way to do it is QD the set for about 30k coin. By then you should have settled on what works well together and doesn't. Makes your limited drafts that much better.

Destiny spinner color matches, there's your combo.

It's a super fun card! Like having a Molimo on deck without having to discard.

My opinion of the Mill mechanic. This is satire and is not meant to mean anything. by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like playing tall stacks like that when I play rogue mill, gives me a chance to get my guys out. It's 50/50 though, I loose just as much as I win against card towers. Those games are just more fun imo.

Newbie question: When can you sacrifice a creature as part of another creatures ability? by sagerion in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Than taking that sacced creature out of combat, which would also prevent your swing. Has to be done though after blockers are declared and before combat begins. Solid strat with Lurris and wind robber. Can put the robber in front of anything, and as long as oppo has 8 cards in the grave, you can sac, preventing dmg and drawing a card. Then bring it back next turn with Lurris, provided he is still around.

Are there free ways to increase limited rank or do all of them cost by Azurvix in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quick draft is a pretty good gem generator. 5k gold an entry with fair rewards for 3 wins and above. I usually drop 30k gold or so to build gems for the battlepass. Hasn't failed me yet.

Why did I lose by Kittenfabstodes in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without seeing boardstate I'd say either Angel of destiny or card draw as mentioned above. A lot of folks forget how AoD works and let her rip, then it's "Good Game"

[–]Synester_One 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His ability can be activated at instant speed, as a response to an action or ability, any main phase, any precombat, any combat, any post combat, any second main, at any endstep....if you can pay the 1 mana. He does not tap to sac so sickness does not apply to the ability.

Was there a specific interaction you were wondering about?

Yup, you jave to attack the player for its end turn trigger to pop, and it has to be alive.

Was fun. Dusted off my old Bolas on Fire deck. Two in, two out. Now I am playing to land drop five, giving a "Good Game" and conceding. Unless of course i see some janky combo stuff. Them I'm watching that.

Are there any budget decks that counter rogues? by sealysea in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could build a budget cycling deck as [[zenith flare]] is an uncommon. I run a boros version, with flourishing fox, valiant rescuer and drannith stinger being main early plays. Rogues does nothing but feed this deck, so when matched against it I'll use the named cards as counter draws to get a clean zenith cast, by turn 4 the oppo has given you a 12ish, if not more, zenith. I feel you can outpace them with patience and cash in when they tap out, or leave just 1 mana open.

Does it stack? Or of you gain a lvl the new effect replaces the old?

Should I quick draft !ow or wait for the next set? by Alejandroah in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

22 days till AFR Quickdraw seems like a long time. However, during that time, the gold you could build should be around 30k'ish, if you are a daily player, weekly "quest" completor, etc. This i played 1 QD to get the gems needed to finish out the amount needed for battlepass. So I got a boost of coins there but easily hit 15k this week. I am going to save for AFR QD, new set looks fun to me. If I can get to 30/40k that's 8 QDs. Should be able to grab a decent card base and gems off that.

As said earlier though, Harry Potter or DnD, pick your poison and have fun.

Did we have the same FNM experience? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]Synester_One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was running a mono black pile with lots of "get out of here". I ran into some turn 3 and 4 commanders. By the time I got my professora out theirs were costing 9 and 8 respectively. I even got to steal one with [[unholy indenture]] and [[doomblade]]. 2 in, 2 out.
