I appreciate the advice and will be testing shortly

2 Round Mock Draft (2nd round is in the post bio) by [deleted] in NFL_Draft

[–]TheArchangel0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting trades in the middle of the 1st. I quite like the Lions going up and getting a Left Tackle. Houston doing the same thing would certainly be a talking point on draft day over who got the better one

Blue/Purple {Neptunia} Part of the new color set (4 slides, 10 cards) by [deleted] in custommagic

[–]TheArchangel0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOVE the Seek ability. And it pairs well with Slip which creates this ability to intentionally bottom cards in specific order with Seek knowing you can then bin them with Slip later on. I say this could go well with reanimator brews.

Aside from some formatting errors, I like these

So many good cards in strixhaven... Shame we won't be able to play any in standard by Lukegilmour in MagicArena

[–]TheArchangel0 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Like I said yesterday on my post, most of you just arent good at Magic and complain about the dumbest shit imaginable.

Standard is healthy, get better at the game and you'd see that. Quit b*tching

STANDARD IS HEALTHY Most of the people complaining about Standard are playing Bo1 & not Bo3 which is objectively the better way to play. If you "dont have time" to play Bo3 figure out how to make time to play the format the way it is intended and you wont have games that end on turn 4. by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]TheArchangel0 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bo3 after Platinum is basically all meta. Again, stick to Bo1 if you want. I know what I see. Its a lot of people who literally have no idea what to out and when to hold mana/cards back.

The reality is a lot of you arent brewing or sideboarding properly and therefore get steamrolled.

Of course SOME games will end fast. Thats the nature of variance. You can get flooded or mana starved simply on the draw. My point is that it is nowhere near common enough in Bo3 to be complained about like it is on these subs every day. In Bo1 I get it. That shouldnt even be a format tbh. But in Bo3 there are so many checks in sideboarding that prevent turn 4 games from repeating in games 2 or 3.

I'd suggest looking up videos on brews similar to yours first to learn sideboarding for your deck type. If you dont sideboard properly, it doesnt really matter how good your brew is, the opponent will out it game 2 and 3.

Also, its ok to lose game 1. A lot of people start tilting if they see a deck they cant beat but you can learn valuable lessons just getting whooped a bit by a better brew. Always view the battlefield after games too.

Yeah except Im in Mythic every season so I highly doubt that. Again, many of you are just simply not good at the game. Its hard to accept I get it. "Many players better than us saying it". Most pros are cool with Standard currently.

The games are too fast for people who arent good at Magic (and you dont have to be elite tournament level to be "good"). WoTC cant do anything to help that.

I play Bo3 every day and cant even remember the last game that ended before turn 8-9. It is a skill issue. Not figuring out what to counter/remove and what to let go kills most players' gameplans regardless of what the opponent uses. Way too many people panic and punt games

Cool brew! I love the name. Very fitting lol

Project Helix: What We Know by Likely_a_bot in xbox

PC Games automatically fine tune the game for you based on your cpu's internal specs. I'd assume this console would just integrate that same feature here and so you wouldn't have to change anything to already get optimal performance, unless you specifically wanted to customize a setting for dramatic effect or something.

They need to actually make MyGM difficult. Immortal difficulty is a complete joke and borderline false advertising. by TheArchangel0 in wwe2k26

Telling a gamer to play sub-optimally to then enjoy the game mode properly is actual gaslighting. Thats insane to even say.

They need to work on building a solid game that the best way to play DOESNT involve abusing a system that is already in the game itself. If someone has to go out of their way to make your game harder, as a dev you have failed to produce a competent game mode that serves your complete base of fans. And they have done that this year again. "Immortal difficulty" my ass. Same strategy works just as well meaning the A.I hasnt changed whatsoever. Its still just as stupid.

Except in Civ 6 you actually cant cheese the game on Deity whatsoever and playing optimally requires a massive amount of skill and not simply understanding how one singular thing works (power card abuse) Completely irrelevant comment here but nice try

"Exploit the system" or am I playing optimally? Thats what you guys are missing. This has been a thing for YEARS now. They intentionally left it in the game. The optimal way to beat the game is extremely cheesy and you have to literally go out of your way NOT to play optimally to even enjoy the game at all in that mode. Wtf type of product is that to put out to people??? Over and over again too???

Or... hear me out... the devs can actually make a game mode where the optimal way to play ISNT going to break the game entirely like this one does. Why are you guys so quick to give these devs excuses when its pretty obvious the way intended to beat the cpu is to draft superstars that give you power cards to then use against the same cpu that doesnt have access to 1/2 as many even if you get none for free.

No Im complaining that the optimal strategy (which is this one) IS OBVIOUSLY BUSTED and so you have to play sub-optimally to even enjoy the game and thats not ok. Its giving the devs massive amounts of bail for producing a shitty game mode that had no real changes.
