Random question, how are you supposed to stop in your declare attackers step to do something before your opponent blocks? Full control didn't seem to do it.

It should. You should get a button to click that says "To Blocks", that's your stop in the declare attackers phase.

I have been trying to make a Wolf tribal deck work for the last two expansions and am really hoping someone smarter than me can crack it with the new ToE stuff. It should work!

Yeah, I can't fault them too much for wanting to prioritize and incentivize the play pattern most likely to keep them in a job.

So 2:1 is a slim bummer, but it is a problem a wallet can solve if I want it to badly enough, so it'll all work out one way or another.

Even though Charlie can't read the cards he still intuitively determines what the cards do based on the illustrations. He goes on to make a fortune on the pro MTG circuit, only to blow all the winnings on an ebay auction for "Real Dragon Meat".

I would legit watch that episode and it'd probably be great. Charlie being a Magic savant because his entire world runs on fantasy dream logic just makes sense. Like, he already thinks that if you owned an elf and it got attacked by a dragon, the only logical response is to bake the dragon into a pie, and he's just finally found somewhere that agrees with him.

You should really stop and consider what Historic Brawl would look like before pining for it.

Also no one should buying "sets" of anything for Historic of either potential permutation. The number of playable cards lowers immensely very quickly. Modern is incredibly deep to support such a depth of archetypes and most of them require older cards to exist. The rate of playables even when modern first launched was a narrow sliver of the format.

Yeah, but the problem is, what happens when Theros Revisited card X combos with previously-junk Ixalan rare Y that nobody bothered to craft because it sucked? Everyone�s out 8 WCs?

Honestly it�s just so unnecessary, Hearthstone lets you craft Wild at the normal dust rate and people still focus on Standard, because there�s already plenty of New Players Stick To Standard Goddamn It signposts: those packs aren�t for sale any more and they�re drat sure not the packs you get for free, crafting a whole goddamn deck is already cost-prohibitive on its own, and all the official attention and prize support is in Standard, so that�s what the pros and streamers focus on, and the masses follow them.

NEW HISTORIC CARDS
We will start to add new cards to Historic in November. We�ll be thinking through what the right target of cards to add is and how players can acquire these new cards. These cards will be added to the game differently than cards in Standard, but we�re still working on exactly how to do that.

Good change. Now just name whatever price you'd like and sell an All The Slivers We Ever Printed collection for Historic, WotC, please and thank you.

So apparently after spending months going "People will get the NPE decks eventually" to "People will get the NPE decks on the 26th" arena twitter confirmed they spent time and effort coding a solution to this problem, and now arena will check your account and only give what you're missing to "finish" the decks. Nothing extra, no gems, no vault progress.

You got six days, apparently. I win drat near half my games by self-mill; people got answers for the zombies but while they're dealing with that they either don't notice I'm drawing my entire deck or think it's a drawback and they've got me on the ropes because I'm about to mill out. Then on my last turn I play Jace, zap two cards off my deck, then use Circuitous Route/Krasis/a fresh Guild Summit/whatever to draw the rest of my deck and they explode.

They last the duration of sets. They are tied to the set. We don't know exactly when Theros 2 comes out, but it'll be locked to that release date.

Oh wait, edit, it says January 24th (paper, so probably like the 14th for us). So you probably have at least 10 weeks to go.

Also you're already gaining XP, so the level you're at will determine the answer.

Also worth noting that at the end of last season they put up a "grind this for infinite XP" event to let people make a run at the last few levels if they were short, and they'll almost certainly do so again.

Just bought the new 9.99 bundle. Now I'm off to crafting some new stuff and it's still surprising to me that almost everything that's rare/mythic and played right now is from Eldraine. Did Spark not have as many good cards or are its good cards somehow not powerful enough for the current meta?

WAR was powerful but a lot slower; both Proliferate and Amass are abilities that want several turns to build up their effectiveness, and you were trying to get out your 4 or 5 cost Planeswalkers and then start pumping them up. You're not seeing much of it because a deck that waits for turn 5 to get going is dead loving meat in the face of Oko and Cavalcade.

Jarvisi posted:

I'm wondering if golos gates is still playable even without field. Hmm.

Maybe? Self-mill becomes your primary win condition, but the question is, how are you going to distract your opponent while you get there without the zombies?

Maybe if you replace the Fields with 3 more Arcway Angels and 1 more Krasis and just play "I have 200 life, try and kill me"?

If I have any amount of Lucky Clovers in play and play an adventure, if I decline to trigger even one of the copies, the card fails to exile itself and goes to my graveyard instead. Is that correct rules behavior or should I go file a bug about it? It sure seems wrong.

Here's what's happening (I'm assuming Murderous Rider is causing this). You're declining to choose new targets, you can't decline any copies triggering. Because you declined to choose a new target, the copy of Murderous Rider kills your target, then your original card fizzles because its target is gone.

Him and Brazen Borrower, yeah, who has similar non-optional text.

I have a Grixis Adventures deck that doesn't work reliably enough to actually bring to ranked, but when it works, goddrat it's satisfying.

so, uh, I didn't know a card could steal lands. I never had that happen in magic before, only been playing 2 years but still.

Yeah, Agent of Treachery being a land-stealing shitlord was a pretty popular counterplay before Fields got banned. Worst part is that as far as I can tell, there's no way to ever bounce a land back to its owner's hand, and Trostani's "no more stealing" effect doesn't work on lands either.

Blue has some spells that bounce permanents, and black has some unexciting enchantment removal. You're probably better off just countering the important shrines before they cast them or just winning through them. What's your deck look like?

Please note that this deck's theme, apart from Grixis Control, is "I built this in War of the Spark and then fell out of the habit of playing shortly after Theros Reborn hit, so I'm using what I got". (And I suppose the tertiary theme is "I like Nicol Bolas".) It works well enough to get me to Diamond 4 last month, at least.
