Oko looks strong. Whatever food tokens do can help, the +1 can be used on your own 1/1 tokens to beef them up for aggro and can remove major threats your opponent has, and the -5 can help you too. I wonder if we'll get more permanents that will have a negative impact on your side of the field that would make the ult more useful.

GrandpaPants posted:The adventure puts the card into exile, where you can then play it as a creature. Yep! Here's a new one to use as an example:  You can either play the creature as is -OR- Pay the 2 mana, get a creature card from your graveyard and put it in your hand, put Order of Midnight into exile, then pay the additional 2 mana now or later to play the 2/2 flyer. Another one that actually looks good to use:

You think any of these brawl commanders will be usable in the new standard? I'd love to try to make a mrdu knights deck with some sir gwyns and a couple of colossus hammers and other equipment.

There's not a lot of equipment that will survive rotation atm. Hopefully we'll see more because we haven't seen Eldraine's version of Excalibur yet. Hopefully it's good enough to fit in Syr Gwyn

Trying to prep for tomorrow's Standard 2020 event, and Boros Feather seems to have most or it's power in place come rotation. Biggest blows are losing Adanto Vanguard and Reckless Rage. Trying to figure out how to work around those losses. Here's a pile of card I have right now:  What would best to keep and cut? Swiftblade Vindicator (not shown) has a lot of swing to it if it goes off, and Fencing Ace is a lesser version but possibly usable, but they are also just fragile 1/1's. Sure Strike feels like an okay replacement for Reckless Rage as it can stop Deathtouch damage. Is there any room for Naya with Season of Growth and Giant Growth instead of infuriate? I would appreciate any help with this.

kater posted:Those split cards don't work for Arcanist and they are one mana more expensive and Feather is already kinda durdly until it can Gods Willing forever. And they are just weaker in the first place. Goddamn Reckless Rage is absurd. I want to make a Jeskai Feather deck. Firemind's Research and Electrostatic Field and Saheeli and whatever that m20 mythic is called that is just Saheeli but a bird wizard. And t3f cuz why not. Just sit back and spam forever and never attack and be the worst. The Theros sequel will probably have them, but would seem silly that half of them will rotate out.

They need to do something about the new trolling method of wildly highlighting their hands and cards on the field. It's headache inducing and I don't know if it can hurt epileptic people. Just make it an option to turn it off.

 Not sure what deck this can belong to in standard.  If a food factory decks gets made this can be very powerful. Not sure if it can work in an Abzan Wolves deck.  Very strong sideboard for tribal decks.  Has Peasant ever been a creature type before?

 Sound Intrusion B Sorcery Target opponent reveals his or her hand. You may choose a nonland card from your opponent's hand. If you do, your opponent exiles that card. If a nonblack card was exiled this way, exile a card from your hand. This is good, right? Like....really good. Not sure about mainboard but absolutely in sideboard. 1 black mana to counter any black spells, and it's non black, just throw away any unwanted card.

 This feels strong enough to keep 1-2 copies of in an aggro deck. The possibilities for this are good. Turn 3 Drakuseth, early equip of a Colossus Hammer, having 2 green usable to make a 7/8 Voracious Hydra to kill something or make it 14/15. IF there's no answers to any of these the game is pretty much over.

TheMaestroso posted:Not sure what deck you're envisioning where you can both have 4 mana on turn 3 AND have three of it be red. You just need 1 G/R source and either Paradise Druid or Incubation Druid on Turn 2. I'm also trying to brainstorm a 5-color deck that uses Faeburrow Elder as a ramp unit, Niv-Mizzet Reborn as a card draw and a steroid booster for Faeburrow Elder, Kenrith as a swiss army knife, Sphinx of the Guildpact as an additional means to power up Faeburrow Elder and be a fat flyer with some protection, and Golos as a ramp unit with a 5-color upside. I just need to figure out the rest. :/

 "Yorvo Lord of the Garen Preserve" GGG Legendary Creature - Giant Noble Yorvo Lord of the Garen Preserve enters with four +1/+1 counters on it. Whenever another green creature enters the battlefield under your control, put a +1/+1 counter on Yorvo. Then, if the creature's power is greater than Yorvo's power, put another +1/+1 counter on Yorvo.

I went 6-2 with Jeff Hoogland's Temur Aggro https://www.streamdecker.com/deck/iQ-lNZJjl Very solid deck. Can be played in 1v1 (Nothing from the sideboard would've saved me from my losses anyways). Gives Arboreal Grazer more use with Oko and The Royal Scions. Really surprised the Scions card isn't used a lot it's great.

I know the whole "Put Pioneer in MTGA" complaint has been repeated a lot, but honestly I feel it should be done for the good of the game, both in player base and in profit. I think the best way to implement this is have something called "Pioneer's Trail". The Pioneer's Trail would last 40 weeks. Every two weeks, a new set would come out from the top-down (First two weeks is Hour of Devestation, then Amonkhet, then Aether Revolt, etc.). I think this would give enough time for programmers to develop the older sets (seeing how we know Kaladesh is in the game). You can buy the packs like you buy any other packs, and there will be a sealed and ranked draft for each set for those two weeks. You can play the cards in Historic (because no one uses it) as a means to report nay bugs or whatnot. Once Return to Ravnica is launched, then we'll officially have Pioneer in MTGA. It won't happen, but I just like to come up with ideas...

I'm surprised no one is playing Bioessence Hydra in more decks with Oko. With any PW in the field, especially Oko, it's just a massive creature that it still a massive creature if Elk'd by an opposing Oko. I guess just being a big guy with trample can't cut it these days.

How long do you think it'll take for Pioneer to be released? My guess is December 2020, maybe up to April 2021. I hope with the addition of this, we'll get options of having Ranked Draft for older formats. Have one that's standard and one that's Pioneer that way it can make Limited be more diverse but still give players progression in the season.

I do apologize for my ignorance. I am not sure how long it takes them to 'input' cards and code in each mechanic. I just figured they would have some older mechanics coded in to test. Of course it will take more than a year, but I hope they do something with older sets before Pioneer like drafts and whatnot.

WotC is starting their Theros Beyond Death reveals way early (probably due to the gigantic leak). Devotion gods are back.  Elspeth is back and deader than ever.   Ashiok looks cool (alt art probably means we're getting $30 paper boosters for this set too) A better look at the kickass constellation basic lands

zoux posted:Is it a good mechanic or a bad mechanic It's good. I used to run a boros devotion deck that had the chance to kill someone on turn 3. First two turns you would play simple lands and whatnot and 1/2 mana creatures. Turn 3 you play this land  THEN play 1-4 of these assholes  Use the two floating mana to use Nykthos's ability to generate a lot of mana to bring in these  or this  or this  It had so many options. If you had like a RR 2-droped followed by 4 Burning Trees the Nykthos makes 10 mana to drop two fanatics, dealing 23 damage. It was a hoot. I doubt they'll reprint Nykthos for this set but we'll see what they'll do. Waffleopolis fucked around with this message at 20:02 on Dec 11, 2019 |

I know people hate on Fortnite and all, but with MTGA going to the Epic Games store, doing a crossover like "Get level 25 on the basic mastery to earn a Chandra skin in Fortnite" could reel in some additional players. What other big games besides Fortnite and Unreal does Epic Games develop?
