if you play Magic Arena, you already know that Field of the Dead deck (was) overplayed. So it wasn't a fresh deck to see. I'm glad it is banned. Now they need to ban Oko the Broko and Nissa. Overpowered planeswalkers that break the format. It makes playing Standard boring. That's why I'm enjoying playing the brawl event better.

3:11 can't help but notice how he didn't attack here. he didn't block with it the next turn, so he avoided doing 2 free damage for no reason. Also later in that game, he brought javier down to only 2 life which would've been a win had he done the 2 damage earlier. he still won, but he did give javier more chances to top deck what he needed to win when he didn't have to

This way, in a BO3 if someone wins once, and the video is only 20 minutes we already know the outcome before watching the second game..! Just add something random at the end to fill it up.

Do you guys think that when planeswalkers ETB there should be an opportunity for the opponent to play instants before they tick up? Fry would then kill Oko or you could bounce mini tef before it bounces something and draws etc. Such a rule change would placate the mass of players complaining about the state of standard and power creep. Nissa who shakes is also pretty obnoxious. Remember ages ago when you could activate creature abilities after they received lethal damage because there was a damage on the stack phase? New players would be horrified to know we played that way in the past. It only makes sense that PW could be interrupted. It might take too many resources to program such a rule change but it would really open up deck diversity.

Yes and no, kinda. Much as I hate what this game is at this point in my life, skillwise its a lot like Poker. Playing into and away from probabilities and taking a consistent view in terms of win/loss rate. The land system is awful though.

Change the set design to more silver... or something, that matte black metal is so boring, players disappear into the stage... who signed off on this stage design... so weird. This is like some union stage dudes, in their 50s, from the music staging industry, were asked to set up a stage

This double lose elimination system ruins the excitement of the finals. They must come up with another way of cashing up advantages or handicaps before the final. because: 1. The player with the advantage has bascially 75% of winning the whole thing (I take for granted that they will be both very competent and play strong decks since they are in a Mythic championship finals). This dumps down the interest. 2. It gets anti climactic. In this finals for example Depraz is winning the first match and its a mehhh feeing knowing that this basically means nothing. And even if Dominguez would win first match it would also feel less special knowing he had a lifeline either way. Only match 2 feels kind of "special" but in many cases we will never even get there. 3. It feels weird/unfair. I just watched a final where both players won 3 games but one of them prevailed because of tournament rules and not because he actually performed better in matter of winning. I believe the winner should be chosen by the performance in the finals. This victory looks too gimmicky.

Is called a loser bracket, when someone loses it goes to that bracket and in the finals you have the only full winner from the winners bracket (0 loses which means he has to lose 2) and the winner of the loser brackets (the reason for only 1 lose is cause he already has in record his first lose). In the end to get eliminated you have to get 2 loses, this is why the finals is done this way. And not both players won 3 games, both players won 1 match which is what counts (match consist of 2-3 games in which the player to get 2 wins first is the declare winner). Now to clarify the golos player already had 1 lost match from a previous match up which is the reason only 1 more lost match was enough for Javier to be the winner, in the other hand Javier reaching finals without been sent to the losers bracket he had 0 loses in record so he had to lose 2 matches in total to lose this finals.

you have to view it over the course of the entire tournament not just a single match. if they got rid of that rule (which btw is a common tournament format) and only the first match counts, then both of them have lost only one game that entire tournament but somehow one of them is declared a winner. This situation can be made even more unfair because the player starting with 0 losses in the finals might even be the one to have knocked down the other finalist to the losers bracket in the first place. Single Elimination Tournaments especially in card-deck based games suffer from the fact that sometimes luck of the draw creates a final winner that just shouldnt be there because of luck of the draw. Double Elimination makes for more Interesting matches between better competitors which in turn makes the entire tournament a better watch for the viewer.

In double elimination as the name suggests you have to lose two matches to get knocked out. Being the upper bracket winner means you have not lost the whole tour while the player that comes from the lower bracket has lost once. So that means that for player one to be out he has to lose two times.

I personally appreciate your concern about Arena killing the physical game (money still goes to the same place though) but for me without Arena, I wouldn't be able to play let alone compete. Also, doesn't mean ESPORTS sucks. quite the contrary. it incentivizes competition and puts money in the pockets of gamers; not to mention builds up the industry overall, ensuring: better games. better content. better players. it's good for everyone regardless of it hurts the paper version. even if Arena hurts physical cards sales, it won't ever completely kill it; each block is released in tandem. All in all this is a good direction from a marketing standpoint too. MTG hasn't had this much attention or fan base in... well, ever. but I totally get what you're saying. I urge you to "pro - con" the issue, I believe you'll come to a similar conclusion. it's a good sign when gamers can make a career out of gaming.

You could not PAY me to enter an online tournament to play this broken game. Real life sure, because it makes sense and follows the laws of the universe. This games shuffler is tragically broken. Winner of a tournament is 25% skill , 75% shuffler giving you what you need regardless of the laws of probability. And yes I can compare it to real life, having played for years and in many tournaments.

Makes me embarrassed to say I play magic if people think it's more than it really is! I get it though you want it to be more than it really is but alas it's not it's just cards and everybody can have the same best deck if your a pro card shopper lololol

@Brandon Munoz ah yes lamemens terms! Sorry, so I have played TCG games almost as far back as they have been in existence and people seem to take little things and make them bigger than they are hence MTG. If you really think about it how does this transfer to a professional sporting event?? You buy cards and there is always a best build always, one can easily find it and buy the cards to build it everybody can! So what I'm trying to say is there really isnt any skill involved no matter how much you want to believe there is, it's all luck on the card draws! That being said it's silly to think someone is a pro luck drawer with a big wallet!! Just like mobile games it's all wallet warriors trying to find the best deck in the soup of cards that exist! So in turn once the best deck is found everybody builds it and luck is what picks the winner not skill not intelligence not physical fitness just luck of draw!! Is that english enough for you buddy!! I hope so I'm scared of heights so I cant dumb it down any further!
