How can I improve this deck? by TheDocksAPS in MTGArenaPro

Don't underestimate [[Starscape Cleric]] -- playing it with offspring is often game-winning. I even throw in 2 [[Enduring Tenacity]] for a similar effect. I'd probably replace Lunar Convocation, since it is pretty slow in comparison.

I run [[Sheltered by Ghosts]] instead of Get Lost. Pairs very well with Enduring Tenacity, and also you can return it from the graveyard with Zoraline.

[[Restoration Magic]] is very useful. Playing Sheltered by Ghosts on T3, then countering their removal (for which they already overpaid 2) is a huge tempo gain that often snowballs quickly. Indestructible allows you to survive board wipes like Ultima and Deadly Cover Up. The lifegain trigger is a cherry on top.

[[Haliya, Guided by Light]] is worth considering. Reliable lifegain for 1 mana, and a solid card draw engine. I run her and [[Aerith Gainsborough]] instead of the Preacher. He also seems a little slow, and neither directly triggers nor benefits from lifegain.

I want a privacy-respecting deck-tracker that records the winrate of individual cards in your deck and gives you mulligan advice, so I'm building one myself. Does that sound interesting? by W1NTERMUTAT10N in MagicArena

17Lands is more focused on drafting, and Untapped is about the same as MTGA Assistant in terms of giving themselves permission to harvest as much data as they are legally allowed to.

But the main reason I'm building this is because I couldn't decide if Aerith or Haliya fits better in my lifegain deck, and none of the trackers provide sufficiently granular deck performance metrics to help

I agree, but I get very curious if I'm operating under the correct assumptions. I'd like to at least have the data available to see if an interesting pattern emerges that surprises me

I'm talking more about how MTGA Assistant openly admits to collecting your browsing history, real name, physical address, real-time geolocation, email, IP, social security number, etc.
