props to crim for the ruination win. i'm here to say, there are plenty of players willing to play land destruction, and won't be salty when it happens to them. ramp and card draw really do need to be punished in this format enough to bring it under control. make people think twice about ramp packages and advantage engines. get creative. land destruction really isn't bad when the player doing it has an advantage engine online and ends the game soon. the ruination ended that game in a swift manner without drawing it out. the long drawn out land destruction with no wincon or advantage is what should be frowned upon. sloppy play should be frowned upon. just my 2 cents.

Richard is capping. He and Seth have 100% claimed targeted LD is socially banned. One issue with MLD no one brought up, which (I think) is the whole reason why people have issue with MLD, is that it punishes innocent players. Imagine playing a land a turn and then getting MLDed because of the green player that was also stomping you. Lastly, Richard is missing that you can fetch for basics, and ramp using them. Once you play enough basics, you are way more likely to see them.

Urza's Sylex is what they can do about green ramp. Limit the number of lands people can have out so you can knock them back down if they've got too much advantage but you don't stop them from playing the game. I'd personally like a red 3RR sorcery that destroys everyone's lands except 4 they choose and makes a treasure for each player who had a nonbasic destroyed this way. Black could have some kind of enchantment that drains people on your upkeep based on their nonbasic lands or number of lands above a number, perhaps with the option of them sacrificing lands to gain life. I think with enough playable cards like this where they either progress a game or knock back a player with too much advantage but allow the game to continue then the land ramp problem could be resolved.

Ruination hitting dual lands is great. Right now, there is basically no reason to not play 5 color decks if you want to have the best tools for your strategy. It's insane to me that we now just accept that multiple colors should be almost just as consistent as mono color land bases. The whole point of barring the colors behind different lands is to introduce a consistency cost to over- diversifying your accessible colors. We're at the point where all lands should just tap for every color, or we accept cards like ruination hitting dual lands because there should be an inherent risk to being greedy with your color identity.
@BurgerSmother8 ай бұрын
Wizards printed urza's sylex which I think most playgroups consider not that salty land hate and I love it. I think there should be a ton more effects that put the table down to a reasonable amount of lands for non green players. IMO they should make another balance, but only for lands, and it probably shouldn't be the lowest, but instead the lowest of your opponents. If they word it like that it stops people from having like lotus field thespian's stage and setting everyone back to 2 while theyre on 6, and I think it would really improve the format overall. Especially if it was target remove lands instead of just "choose 6 and sac the rest". Its obviously tough because you can really screw someone and remove all their sources of a particular color, but mana bases are so good these days im not even sure if that matters anymore.

The way to fix issues like "green ramp is too busted" is to just allow everything. cEDH is relatively well balanced because everyone plays fast mana (meaning that cheaper green ramp is decent but not broken) and everyone is packing tons of interaction to deal with problematic permanents (field of the dead, the one ring etc. are all good but not busted) AND no one has any problem with stax, mass land destruction etc. People play to win, every strategy is respected and people don't get salty when you combo off etc. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the issue isn't whether cards need to be banned or not. You don't want to police how people have fun. You want to make sure that everyone has the same goal and if they do, they'll make the necessary decisions to meet that goal. In cEDH, it's play to win so players are bringing all the cutthroat fast mana and stax. In casual, just communicate with your playgroup that the goal is to have fun and what things cross the line.

There IS a manga about mtg. Destroy All Humanity: They Can't Be Regenerated. Could become an anime some day. I wonder if Crim or Richard have read it

The Big Score cards seeing play in multiple formats makes me wish they were still an aftermath set. As a bonus sheet in the regular set they are incredibly hard to find. Players really screwed the pooch on this one.

Seth asked a question on how much does a president of a company actually matter. The answer is not much. There are studies on this and in general the president is pretty meaningless... unless they get performance incentives, in which case they have a negative effect on the company.

Also all of the goldfish crew play way to many nonbasic lands in their decks even in mono colored decks they ten to only have 5 at most which is insane. Even my 5 color decks run at least 2 of each basic

Cowboy Bebop is super over rated. Outlaw Star is much better.

"They should print more specific mass land destruction spells! So specific that they don't actually hurt me, the person with the insanely greedy mana base." cmon guys. if you think you're too good to run more than three basic lands, you deserve to be punished for it.
