It's looking like a pretty rote 5-lane set where you pick a two-color combo and force it. Every common and uncommon feeds into the payoff mechanics, and you don't so much draft it as hope you didn't choose the same school as two other people in your pod. They brought back converge but are terrified of putting it on an X spell where it might be useful. Cancel got powercrept by Mana Drain but god forbid putrefy with lifegain can be an instant.

Japan town lands are good, but I like the Japanese field lands a bit more because of the mountains and swamps.
Phyrexian lands are also commonly used sets.
The Theros constellation lands are pretty nice.
And then maybe the Unfinity planet lands if you like the sci-fi theme.

I'm not super experienced with mtga, but I've played on and off over the years, and came up with this deck. I've run across similar decks which included red/white before, but I kinda like the mon-black nature of mine. Anyone have any obvious/clear suggestions for better cards or straight upgrades?
Format is modern, and I've gotten to diamond.

Gotcha. I haven't followed historic in around 5 years, ever since Alchemy got added. Can't really help you there beyond generic advice of trying to get 4x for your most important cards instead of having random 1-2 copies of things. Reanimator is a hard archetype to get going because it's very vulnerable to hate pieces and has a bunch of moving parts. But, if you're having fun that's the important thing.

I wish I played MTGO back in the day for Constructed. I don't want to drop $300-400 on it to get a Legacy deck as the startup cost now.

i've had a bot laugh at me for not having land on t2, despite the fact that I dropped lands on both my turns. I did start with 2 lands in my hand then I didn't draw another land for five turns, for an easy loss. Either a bot, or someone that saw my draw stack, no other explanation, really.

>>97825292
to be clearer
>start with 2 lands in hand
>t1, drop land, no land on draw

>opponents drops "land huh" emote
I was, like wtf. Yeah, I'm struggling with my lands, but you should have no clue at this stage.
Btw, another pretty clear bot behaviour is when you start roping opponent at a weir place, and then he immediately start playing or doing combo shit, as soon as you stop roping. Real player will pause, hover over cards, or start complaining, bot will just resume with his shit like nothing happened.

These really aren't real people

Meds. How do you know your opponent wasnt complaining about the number of lands they had? Roping does literally nothing but waste time when everyone has a phone and pc and probably a handheld too. They can just play another game or edge while you seethe and dilate. Retards.

Smothering Tithe is an actual EDH staple, no? It's obviously infinitely better in actual Coomander because there's 3 opponents instead of 1 but still, you can assume they netdecked EDHREC and just put in all the top cardsI know I did, and I used to have it in my deck for that exact reason
>>
>>97825498
i never see that card in decks using W because every retard is playing some form of aggro to do their dailies
if that was the case of netdecking retards you would see it in every game because what is one rare wc for such a good staple, right?
>>
>>97825511
I meant in Brawl, anon
I've seen it a couple of timesand I do run it myself in a couple of my W decks
I've been playing Brawl for almost 3 months now, and the majority of decks seem to be
>ramp into ramp into ramp into XXX +1/+1 counters up your bumhole
>control but with a commander wincon
>ramp into draw into ramp into draw into ramp into draw into Simicfags deserve the rope
>me play tribal me smart (literally me)

Sure, but that's besides the point, if it has any at all.
It's just "coincidences" after "coincidences".
Rarely run into certain cards and then i make a brand new brawl deck and opp drops a very specific counter card.
I also run into Zurgos and Kor all the fucking time it's insane

I'm not seeing any anti lifelink cards when I'm not playing lifelink. Matchup engine can be just evil. Even if we drop tin hats and assume everyone is human, there is certainly something very fishy with it.
I had a perfect anti-mice deck when Monstrous Rage and Heartfire were the rage. Everyone was playing mono red at that time. I played a lot of mono red against my other decks. After several wins, I practically didn't match up against mono red against my counter deck. I got a vast majority of mono black and Overlords that I was bad against. It's as if they actively push certain decks with their matchup engine.

This has got to be the most toxic deck ive seen in some time. Its pure deck destruction. I won though, but damn what the fuck. Hilariously a big reason I won is cause I had a bunch of random small number of cards like 1 hellkite 2 aangs and so on. He had like deadly cover up and what not in exile as well.

It sure is funny how the composition of your matchmaking queue will completely change when you start playing a new deck, almost like it's trying to set you up against things that specifically counter what you're trying to do, but as soon as you build something to try to counter those decks they vanish like a fart in the wind.

Really did not think this deck had it in it to trophy but trophy it did. God I really like playing cube. Obvious good cards are frog and bowmasters (with time spiral and twister) You can dump your hand on frog or just deal 7 with bowmasters making an 8/8 is pretty good. LSV sez he doesn't like dauthi voidwalker but its awesome when you can steal the opponents best card with thoughtseize. Im really bullish on subtlety desu.

Sequencing is the biggest skill in MTG. This applies to optimally piloting your deck to get maximum value as quickly as possible but also understanding the possibilities of your opponents deck and sequencing with that in mind.

>>97845569
It does even out over many games. Your opponents also get bad draws. That's one nice thing about ranked constructed, since all the games are individual a few games of bad luck in a row is fine. If you play well consistently it will even out.
Whereas in draft or events where you have X amount of losses allowed, you can easily get fucked over and lose the entry fee immediately.

Ten F-U-C-K-I-N-G turns in a row with nothing but lands. There is only a 1 in 3 chance of getting lands in my deck. Even with just my opening hand creature (A single fucking 6 cost 6/6, so I had to wait 5 turns to summon a single creature) I bought the faggot ugin larper down to 8 health. I don't understand how I always get this card in my opening hand and never my moss hydras even though there are 3 of them and only one of it.

Since mega cannot do math and the trans is having another episode and spam bumping, I'll take my time and explain how my humble 7-0 7-1 2-2 2-2 1-2 qualifier run completely dismantled the draftrans narrative
As previously stated, each play-in ended up worth 160 gems, there were 100 in total and I made 16k. So each constructed run net me 375 + 160 gems + 3 packs for 2500 gold and I had 100 of them therefore 250000 gold spent and 535*4 gems per 10000 aka 2140 gems per 10000 gold aka 1 draft
I refuse to explain further how that is much better than you get draftranning and how ridiculous of a winrate you would have to have in draft to even come close to matching my constructed numbers
Urza out, total tranny death
>>
>>97848467
>2140 gems per 10k gold
but... trad draft gives out 2500 gems per 10k gold
that's not even counting the value of the cards you drafted
even your own math shows it's worse lol, why are you assuming 100% win rate on constructed events and not 100% win rate in draft events?

Hi sisters! I've been busy lately sory for not posting these past few weeks >u<
I wanted to share my draft deck with you all, another Boros pile (ugh, I know) that burned out opponents at the end with helix Phlage and Fireblast.
I post this as encouregement for all my sisters who want to try cube but are too intimidated by it only having one alchemy card. Don't be afraid to take a crack at it, you just might end up loving it.
Catch you all in the flip-side >w<

15 lands in 2-color with double pips is interesting

I've been getting back into 60 cards format after years of playing brawl only. Still not playing standard because it's basically extended and I have no interest in that format, but pioneer has been really really fun. I'm thinking about building a timeless deck, and the mardu energy look sweet https://moxfield.com/decks/fl8yBkIyv0inRz487qpELQ
I just need 6 mythic WC and 12 rare, it's not nothing but by far the cheapest deck to get into the format, and it's an opportunity to play that infamous energy mh3 deck I hear so much about. Is it worth it or would it get trashed in timeless ? Is the format any fun ? Literally never played a game.

I picked every green card I saw, played them on curve and pressed ATTACK ALL whenever possible, all the while masturbating to stuff on my second monitor
I got the 3 needed wins within 5 games, and I am proud to say I do not remember the name of a single creature in my deck

wow thats amazing draftsister even though its known you are a boros shitter we still respect your draft identity and well yknow what they say whatever wins you the thropies. glad you managed to get the burn dub.
Here's my deck from last night. Gotta say that pack three tinker really did save me and workshop+tomb is crazy i managed to pull a fast nexus to phyrexia on one of those pesky aggroboys. clamp was very good at killing me to bowmasters and sheoldred many times so i dont know. jadar i think is borderline playable with it which is funny. fucking jadar im talking about. And yeah snapcaster plus timewalk is crazy stuff but thats obvious. Almost had a tamiyo(bg one) with it but some stuff just doesn't pan out i reckon thats life and well this is another throphy. Don't forget to take karrakas every single time sisters. Yawgmoth over and out

It's a degen format with t1 combo wins. You'll get shit on by combo in a non-insignificant amount of games, but you're favored vs reactive blue and midrange decks.
Also, your list is outdated. The deck's on 4x strip rn, which is obligatory.

The idea is nice, problem is that lore sets are often worse than universes beyond. Aetherdrift is just horrible, one of the worst sets released, ever. To even call it in universe is an atrocity, since it's tied to Wacky Wheels franchise. While Edge of Eternities is basically star wars.

>test
Most of the decks play by themselves. Vast majority of top decks, even. Starter Deck Duel, for example, demand vastly more skill than practically all top decks right now on standard ladder. Chess or even Bridge are much higher iq games. I can play mtg while tired or in low mental prep just fine, at the same time I'll be loosing a ton of rating playing chess. It's not a dumb game, though, there is a level of skill involved. You need to predict, and even remember certain things, more so in draft than in constructed environment. But constructed demands more in terms of deck building, though that also depends on the approach. People just copying decks are doing nothing for themselves. By far the most iq comes from constructing decks. That part isn't easy, at the same time, it's not giving as much reward as it's maybe warranted, with somewhat rigged draws, matchup and what not.

I don't give a fuck about lore, I just like good mechanics and passable art. FF was almost as bad as Aetherdrift, but at least it didn't have Tranny Mages. Foundations was great, but it was the last in universe set that worked. Turtles work better than all of them, and that's saying much.

Thoughts on using my jeskai blink deck in alchemy? I noticed my deck already kinda transitions into it fairly well, I just lose my no more lies. I wanna toss in like 3-4 of this stupid thing, Xho Cai. Though I have no real idea how the meta in alchemy is. Also any other thoughts on making my deck better? Even outside alhmy. Its VERY fun but no Izzet spellmentals deck.Yes I know I should have get lost but my brain is deep in wildcard hell. I have very few and I REALLY dont want to spend wildcards on a card that cycles out end of year...

What would allow a black/white player to have a deck size this large? I genuinely didn't see it in his graveyard or on the field.
I was moving quick cause the game was ending and I only briefly noticed it.

Hey sisters!
I've come back with another Boros trophy (I know, I know but I do not seem to have the cognative ability to play anything else that isn't Boros). This deck won by high-rolling, I am not even going to kid with y'all sisters. The deck was not good but it pulled through in the end. Bomat Courier and Nova Hellkite are underrated Boros cards in my opinion, they are ok to good in most matchups but when they are able to get their value, oh my oh my.
I would not play Lutri in a Boros deck in most any situation but it was given to me p3p10. Also, I seem to have accidentally played 41 cards but such is life. I am exicited to see what you good people of the Arena General have trophied with.

You can just take a look at timeless for an idea.
There are like half a dozen t9 decks that win with shit like leyline of FLASH FLYING (the blue one) but you`re shuffler`s bitch when running those
Frankly the format`s kinda boring now that the bans settled down and it`s just frog/goyfs

Came back to playing arena because I realized every other game is either worse or doesn't have an online client.
Honestly I also really like how pretty much every cosmetic in this client can be obtained later on even if you miss it, really minimizes fomo.
But why don't we have a /vg/ general? Feels really weird for a game as big as magic to not be able to maintain a general there when yugioh has multiple.
Also I really hate the whole spiderman/ninja turtles shit that is happening. Probably a really bad time to return to this game just for that but alas.
>>
>>97890994
>But why don't we have a /vg/ general?
I dunno, I've been around here for a couple of months and this place seems to attract a very small (but very active) slew of undesirables. A faster board may only encourage them to post more often since they really crave attention
>hate the whole spiderman/ninja turtles shit
Next set, SoS, is in-universe albeit a bit too quirky for my tastes, but at least it's really mechanically solid
After that we're getting capeshit unfortunately so you better enjoy it while you can

Hello draft bros, i skimmed through SOS and here are my initial thoughts:
>aggro looks MUCH slower than in turtles, like 2-3 turns slower
>removal however looks just as good as in turtles
>consensus: I will be drafting for late game, so cards like Ark of Hunger that look bad on paper and were dismissed by other streamers as bad might actually be super good because they a) Work towards guild plan b) give you advantage every turn
>Orzhov should be drafting a lot of combat tricks, you should concetrate on removal instead because it also targets creature and helps your guild plan
>izzet looks the most straight forward, so if you are newish player and attending prerelease i would suggest you this school kit (you will be able to choose)
>Green has TOOOOOOOONS of cheap 2 mana land ramp, which is fucking great for 5color piles and i am looking forward to drafting Converge decks.

Forges ratings are very good.
It's really slow draft format. You can go 3 colours, and just pick bombs, then build something up from what you end up getting. But you'll need to be lucky drawing lands. Many colourless cards actually benefit from having 3 or more colours, and there are synergies like +1 counters, and lifelink, that have cards spread across 3 different colours. It's really weird because there are no (?) 3 colour cards in the set.

We used to, but at a certain point the threads slowed down compared to the rest of the board. Back in the heyday we were pretty active, but around 2024 interest died down and threads were dying way before bump limit. Magic players are still focused on paper (ie. EDH), hence the multiple generals for that.

>>97892846
Seems kinda bad compared to Vivid payoffs in Lorwyn
I had a lot of good runs with 3/4 colour decks in Lorwyn since you had a decent amount of manafixing and colour swapping (Tam my beloved) but I don't see that much support in SoS
