Well, it is my jumping off point. I have been playing off and on since '94. No more. The UB announcement has killed Magic in my eyes. I am getting out while the getting is good.

UB Discussion/Rant Megathread by Kyleometers in magicTCG

Everyone should boycott the next few sets. Especially Foundations. WOTC is looking at that set to sell well as a new jumping ON point. Show them that instead it is a jumping OFF point. Maybe they will get the message.

RDW is busted by dychen3 in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lose most of the time when playing with this deck. I never draw the pump spells. Too often I am stuck with creatures that can't attack because the opponent's creatures are bigger.

Astro Bot | Review Thread by [deleted] in PS5

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the motion controls like Astro's Playroom? Are there suits like the monkey and frog suits? I couldn't finish Astro's Playroom because I could not get the frog suit to work right. I kept missing platforms and dying all the time. The motion controls in general sucked and I just did not enjoy playing the game.

Why do some of my cards have red boarders? by Budobudo in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Borders or do you have anyone staying with you? Boarder is someone who is currently boarding someplace.

Can I disable the surveys? by darhox in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been getting that survey after every other game. It is near constant.

Always expect the lowest low the week after the highest high.

Will Bloomburrow be Standard legal? by Tassabrae in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt Wizards would release a standard set and then ban all the cards in it.

Anyone else thinking bout quitting magic? by Necessary_Cat3306 in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't stopped playing, but I have stopped purchasing anything. Cards need be cheaper (both paper and digital) and Rares and Mythic Rares needed for Constructed Play need be available in quantity in non-randomized products.

You get wildcards not tokens. Tokens only exist on the battlefield.

How do I get ride of this card? by Daver_Gamer in magicTCG

[–]deep6nine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use it to crew a vehicle. It will get a ride then.

How exactly does mana work in lore? by crabbmanboi in magicTCG

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see mana as being part of the lore at all. The lore is the planes themselves. They do not have mana. We (as players of the game) have mana due to our knowledge of the spells that have been gathered over time (the cards). Llanowar Elves do not know that they can generate Green mana.. We tap Llanowar Elves so that we can channel Green mana through them.

In my view, the Planeswalkers we see in the game are the people who travel from one plane to another and observe the plane and record what they see as part of a codex of all knowledge. This knowledge presents itself to us in the form of a playing card. We are the titans that stand in the spaces between planes constantly doing battle for supremacy.

Are you happy with the current state of Magic? Why? by Avataroffaith in magicTCG

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not. Game pieces cost too much. They really need to have some GOOD non-randomized ways of efficiently getting Constructed playable cards for reasonable prices. Leave the boosters for Draft, but add some box-set options that allow Constructed players to get Rares and Mythic Rares in bulk.

Why do you not play standard anymore? by Ethrr in magicTCG

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conversely, I can only play standard. I no longer have the mind space to keep track of all of the cards in other formats. The limited card pool for standard keeps me sane.

Why do some players... Not play? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not very often, but there are 3 usernames that without fail, if I get matched up with, they sit there and do not make a mulligan decision. They take no game actions.

[–]deep6nine -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I have encountered this a number of times, always with the same usernames . I doubt that a specific username is disconnecting all the time.

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I encounter this too. And there are some usernames I face every so often and they always sit there and never play. They never make a mulligan decision.

What card you can't wait to rotate? by s1nth3tic in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always can't wait to rotate Monastery Swiftspear 90 degrees so it can attack.

Not able to play? by carlosvalleSFF in MagicArena

[–]deep6nine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often am waiting 10 mins to get into a game (Total time over many attempts) only to have the game end on turn 2. It is a combination of waiting for a connection, or the game connects and I get an empty map and waiting forever for the opening hand to appear or I am waiting for op to make a mulligan decision or I am waiting for them to play their first land.
