MTGO is a quality program Currently stuck on this screen after my opponent conceded while I was tapping everything I own in full control.

Mythic Championship VI is this weekend and it's kind of hard to adapt to a new meta and source the appropriate cards in less than a week.

flatluigi posted:nobody's having Brawl tournaments Yeah it's basically a zombie format Wizards cynically shuffled out to make a Commander that sold packs by having rotation, and in paper everyone just kept playing Commander.

I get having a slower, thoughtful approach to bans to make sure that players can't solve the problem decks, but they also need to have a policy of saying "well this is clearly hosed we need to do something asap" for Oko cases.

I wonder if the amount of Commander product they're releasing in paper over the next year will change any minds about implementing it in Arena. I know they're terrified of cannibalizing Standard, but as the Oko fiasco is teaching us, relying only on Standard has drawbacks even aside from not being able to sell a bunch of non-Standard precons in the store. I guess one reason they probably won't be doing that, even aside from that general fear of people not buying Standard boosters anymore, is that cards made for Commander might wreck historic. On the other hand, who gives a poo poo about historic.

Not sure they'll try it in 2020, but if that's the strategy moving forward, they must be planning something. (Also is it a little weird they seem to have already dropped the brawl decks? Commander decks based on the same set feels strongly against that) And the Oko fiasco has happened multiple times before and they never learned from it then. Brawl seriously came out of the last season of bannings and they just let it die on the vine once Standard got back to decent.

Wait how do you play brawl now? I don't think I have it as an option, I'd far prefer playing that to standard most of the time.

okay so as a big UG fan like I bought the Simic cosmetics and everything I love simic ramp and it makes me happy my favourite colour pair is the bomb right now but I just did my dailies and it was really apparent that every matchup was oko or deck that tries to beat oko and even against the latter I still won a lot of the time, even when I made big mistakes sadly, I must admit - this is not a healthy standard format

I randomly saw that Aetherhub.com where running a free banned Oko standard tournament on Arena this Saturday. I think I will play if it's not too early for me. I am not expecting to win but should be fun - working on a Orzhov knights deck that is pretty ok.

Also nobody opens standard packs on MTGO so Oko is $63 online atm ($44 in paper) and peaked at $92, lol.

I don't know if that's what is happening here, but there's all four permutations of food in the list then nothing repeats. I'm gonna need a source as hell on this one

zoux posted:The MODO 5-0 league lists include almost zero Food decks, remind me why those lists are dumb and bad Simic Ramp, Sultai Food, Sultai Midrange, and my favorite "Chulane Ramp" (contains no Chulane) are all Oko/Nissa Food Decks. Sultai Food has its Nissas in the sideboard because they use the Cat Oven combo. So yes, four different archetypes that are all centered around Goose, Oko, Nissa. No telling how many slightly different takes on these lists were omitted as they don't print the less than 10 card different lists as mentioned before.

A friend of mine still uses it for PTQ (or whatever the gently caress poo poo is called now) testing since he's already invested and keeps up with the format. He's actually good at the game so it doesn't cost much. Except he just settled on a jund sacrifice deck for the weekend and discovered finding Korvolds locally is impossible. Oh brawl decks.
