Is this a bug or supposed to work like this? I attacked with Delina, Wild Mage while having Harmonic Prodigy and Roaming Throne (shaman) on the board. I've done this before and Delina's ability triggers 3 times like it should, but this time for some reason the triggers all gave me 2 copies each. I lost each of the 3 rolls but got 6 copies.
I've attacked with this combo before and I'm pretty sure it didn't work like this, I got 3 rolls but each failed roll still only gave 1 copy.
>>96057363Oh never mind I didn't realize Primal Vigor affects your opponents too.
Wow youre up 1k gems after almost 80 games thats amazing bro. I wish i could go that infinite.
opponent milled me to exactly 1 card in library before I popped off with world spell putting omniscience + arcavios into play
does YOUR omniboard include the tools to win the game with 0 cards in library?
no casting jeskai revelation
no casting johanns stopgap
no casting beseech the mirror
no guarantee you have other tools in library
for me it was pretty simple

>>96056074Sadly not. We have scrap welder and daretti in standard, stuff like goblin engineer in historic. But those are all once per turn type abilities. A potentially interesting one is lich knight's conquest, if you have artifact creatures you could sac them to bring them back immediately.

>>96059306It doesn't fuck around, it doesn't fold in on itself doing dumb shit. You are a clock counting down to zero. You have 34 direct burn averaging 3 damage each and 4x hidetsugu, so you only need 3-4 spells + hidetsugu or 6-8 total spells to win the game. They have open painlands or you can't line up the 10?

>>960597364 mana doesn't matter for Cerb retard it's a creature. It's an alright card, but it's much worse than Emperor/Shantoto and the good commons in that deck and I'm definitely not surprised to see one pick 2 or even 3-5. It's not like you got passed a smuggler's copter or something.
All I'm saying is your deck has over 5 cards I consider completely unplayable.

Aww shit here we go again.
>>96060171Fire magic, opera love song, item shopkeep,laughing mad, ice flan. Youre welcome.
>>96060279fire magic is literally the best card in his deck, i'd rather cut magic damper
>>96060296>blows up all of his own creatures Wow. Nah you dont want to play cards like that in draft.
>>96060171Bit awkward since you're low on creatures
Probably love song, shopkeep, laughing mad, light of judgment, and damper. Swap a noulith for fist. Would be nice to be able to cut the other noulith and brahne, but again you really want bodies. If you're in bo3, I'd leave the fire magic in the sideboard and add it as needed. If bo1, just leave it in.
>>96060466DO NOT PLAY MONK FIST WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU
>>96060496its literally better than sage's noul
>>96060496It's better than noulith
>>96060496They're basically interchangable, with monk's typically being better. I like nouliths a little more here with the sahagins and no flyers though. His deck really doesn't want either.
>>96060509>>96060519no it isn't, they're both 2/1 for 2 but one gives vigilance++
equip +1 is worth that extra untap
What's the appeal of any format besides brawl?
They're all so much shittier.
>>96060552Not conceding when your opponent has t1 ragavan or chrome mox.
>>96060536really isn't, also you might be stuck on red mana and not able to cast sage's on 2 while monk's fist doesn't care
I dunno man this draft is fucking gay theres way too many words on every fucking card fuck this
>>96056352holy shit this advice is so terrible...
>>96060887feel free to make your suggestion I haven't played the draft yet
quick draft is unplayable. It's actually the worst thing you can do with your gems as soon as your opponents stop being brainless amebas. It's straight up impossible to have a normal game. If you miss your removal by one turn it's just over because every single deck is cracked out of its mind.
Opponent goes firion on 3 into double white mage's on 4 and does infinite damage
Gilgamesh into Samurai Sword into GG
Game somewhat stabilized? Topdeck Ardwyn.
I had a game where my opponent on the play went Sahagin -> Tantotto. Kill tantotto? He plays two more sahagins the turn afterwards, and then white auracite on my monster and the game is over already.
My last game my opponent wins the die roll again, Synchopathes my 2-drop, plays Dragoon's Wyvern on 3 and then Buster Sword + Equip and hit on 4, while all my removal is conveniently chilling at the bottom of my deck apparently
I'm not playing this dogshit again until my rank drops to at least gold if not silver or less
>>96060914Not him, but you for sure don't want magic damper. You might want a YNA, maybe over quistis.
>>96060945>gets out of shitter ranks>starts losing>surely this is the games faultIt happens more than you'd think.
>>96060914deck is great.
quistis/squall/lion heart/magic damper are the only cards you can look at cutting.
I'd cut magic damper for sure out of those
phoenix down is great with zack and gaelicats, could also put that in over one of the others
>>96060954just tell me what am I supposed to do to beat any of the situations I described
>>96060945>Synchopathes my 2-drop, plays Dragoon's Wyvern on 3 and then Buster Sword + Equip and hit on 4I'd be mad if my opponent was cheating and spent 5 mana off 4 lands too
Quick Draft sucks because the EV is worse than Premier (and bot drafting is lame, decks should be stronger on average)
anyways, as usual post the decks you lose with here so I can tell you what your problem is if you actually want to improve and win games
I'm ready to bounce the spacecraft you spent multiple turns charging.
>>96060975Use your cracked deck and play better.
Is this deck actually good? I love Terra! I don't mind spending gems and would rather spend my wildcards on other stuff but I love playing the Terra deck irl
>>96060975go first and beat them with your cracked deck
>>96060975until you post your decks it sounds like you don't know how to draft or deckbuild. every scenario seemingly has you playing from behind with do-nothing cards, no tempo, and zero interaction.
you have to play to the board on turns two and three.
>how do I stop my opponent's 3/3 for 3?!? suplex. 3 power blocker.>how do I beat a Gilgamesh!?!it's not even a good card. syncopate it. removal spell. or, be in a position where you have enough pressure that he can't safely attack.
>topdeck Ardwynyeah the BG deck will eventually topdeck a bomb if you drag the game out, that is the entire reason to play the archetype. again. play to the board and pressure them.
>3 Sahagins!?!board pressure and removal. no shit you can't just play one monster and expect to hide behind it as a blocker vs that
>Dragon Wyvern, then Buster Sword, then equip Buster Sword and attack!?!??! unbeatable1?!?your opponent spent 8 mana and 3 turns to attack you with a wind drake... 1 shock nets you 7 mana adv
>>96061132Looked at the list and I'm gonna say no
>>96061132What's the point of paying for one of these?
Can't you just get the Terra skin somewhere else and not be forced into buying a bunch of random cards?
only if you have no wild cards and you'd want to craft most of those anyways
Its amazing how I've never before played against people playing more than 60 cards in their deck but I decide to try out blue black mill today and I play against people playing 120 card decks in diamond ranked.

Man, control just shouldn't be a thing.
The game shouldn't support a playstyle with the explicit purpose of stopping the opponent from playing the game at all.
Boomer here, coming back to drafting after a while. I used to be good (1900 limited DCI rating), but I assume things have changed a lot in the past 15 years.
Do people on arena use a draft program akin to how hearthstone people used arena tracker? Or more specifically, is it particularly valuable given how different drafting is.
>>96064592>Do people on arena use a draft program akin to how hearthstone people used arena tracker? Or more specifically, is it particularly valuable given how different drafting isI draft in hearthstone the same way I draft in magic.

15 games in a row so far my opponent goes first and ramps to the moon while i have two lands. I love how the game just wont let you play it sometimes for no reason out of no where. Im usually done playing the game already by this time i have 0 wins today. Didnt even change any cards or anything.
>kino Final Fantasy limited is going away soon because of MaRo's autistic obsession with shoving spaceshit into MTG
I am actively angry at EoE, keep your unfinity reject design doc to yourself, Maro. Go create a new TCG with your loser fanfic cards and leave MTG alone. You clearly don't wanna make fantasy cards, go kill yourself.
>>96066067Id google and ask Daenda they are one of the best drafters if you can find the channel and they always respond to messages.
>>96066067Youtubers: numotthenummy, paul cheon, jim davis are all pretty good and explain their thought process regularly. Nummy in particular plays draft a lot, probably the best of the bunch.
Guides: don't know any specific ones but I don't think it really matters, you can look up concepts like quadrant theory, reading signals, having a good curve, etc.
>>96066264Ya ive started watching Nummy. Him recently just loosing multiple box drafts in a row was cathartic to see someone that good still just fuckin lose badly. I suppose ill keep watching and im getting an idea what to do better though sometimes he might make a pick saying like
"Ya X is the best card" When I swear its not and im confused. But I guess I just watch alot.
>>96066264I find that SystemMagic draft videos are by far the best draft analysis, it's two PT players drafting together.
I'd recommend against it if you're a militant chud, but they are very good players.
>>96066331You could also just ask around here if you have small questions about specific stuff. Arena is actually pretty good for drafts, the main issue being not playing against your pod. People post their lists asking about cuts all the time, sometimes advice too.
>>96066396Ya ill do that in the future. I went to an IRL draft and had the person next to me help me and I did ok in the IRL one. It was fun. Your right I do wish I fought against my pod. Even if it was just a seperate kind of draft. Though I guess forcing X people commit to realistically a few hour long thing is to much for what is a phone game to most people.

>>96069529do you think boxes being worth so much is an isolated incident or that itll happen again?
>>96069574I think it's an isolated incident due entirely to the FF fanbase (the scale of advertising I saw here for it was insane; you couldn't even find a spot at a prerelease).
It won't happen but I hope every UB set is a massive success because it's easy to win half a dozen of these boxes on a weekend. If we get another set where they are $1000 the EV is so insane that I'll be farming the hell out of it.

My ex gf loved Bloomburrow but when we broke up she didn't want the cards anymore.
>>96070005my ex loved magic too, all the way up until I decided to try it out. One of the first things we did when we started dating was buy a box of Guilds of Ravnica and play against each other.

Reminder standard bois its the yearly standard play ins right now so go burn all those play in points you've accumulated since last time for free gems.
If you've been doing the basic bitch mythic than afk every season since last time you should have 100~ points saved up right now for average 7500~ gems (if you average winrate it).
If you're tryhard than you're probably swimming in around 200+ points so thats around 15000+ gems.

>only 1 white mage staff>no dragoon>lion heart>joshua with no way to flicker him>barely any removalYou will get your shit killed every turn besides infantry who will then get walled by turn 4 fatties. Going Boros in FF is the biggest mistake. Even if you have all the rares it still sucks.
>>96074891I am sorry, next time I will materialize whatehver pair color you think is best on the draft as open.
>>96074911You just ignore rares in pack 1 and instead force UB or GB or UGB and make sure you pick up removal first. If you get a vaynes or a cornered by black mages or a sephiroth's in your first pack you always pick it over some dogshit white/red rare.
>>96074928Okay, next time I will materialize all the removal on those colors. Anything else you want me to magically appear?
>>96074891>lion heartLion heart is solid, I basically always want one in my Wx decks. It's good with cats, infantry, Firion, tokens, Ashe, Freya,
>joshua with no way to flicker himWhat does this even mean. How and why are you flickering Joushua?
>barely any removalBattlemenu, Suplex, Thunder Magic, Auracite, and Lion heart. Zidane can also remove a blocker for a turn. It's not great, and he's definitely soft to t3 shantoto on the play but you can't always get 5+ terminates every draft
You're right his two drops are abysmal though.
>>96074928GB is ridiculously reliant on having a good rare and uncommons because of how recursion heavy it is. If not, you stall out the game so your awful fat chocobos kill themselves and you lose to something stupid like an Ardyn from opposing durdle piles. Best archetype is the one that's open, but if you're forcing anything it's definitely not GB.
I won a Collector Box but I am not from the US. How easy is to sell it there? I have family there I could ship it too. Just ebay?
>>96074928FIN is fairly balanced, forcing colors is not the way to go. Definitely not UB or GB either, those rely on stalling out games to drop bombs. UR would be a safer bet, most of the power is in the commons and uncommons.
>>96074579Agreed with the other anons, easy sidequest and sandworm out for you're not alone. I'd also consider rapier over sabotender as well, you have a decent amount of noncreatures and it's got better synergies.
>>96074928>UB or GB or UGByou pick all the best non-white cards you're offered and try to make a deck out of that. Ideally UR UB or UGB

why is white removal so godawful in draft
black always get a nice 3-4 cmc kill spell while white is something like 5w, do 3 damage to a creature but it has to be attacking :^)

>>96075690There's like three answers in the set and one is another auracite. Most of the time it'll just be 4 cmc removal that ramps you, which is almost always great in draft.

>>96075725Ramp by turn 5 isn't that useful. There isn't many high cmc white bombs and normally by that turn you want to try and hold back your cards instead of vomiting them all onto the field just to get eaten by removal that opponent was holding back.

>>96076342Yeah, why doesn't everyone here get rich off draft then?
>>96075955It is though, auracite often means playing another spell the turn it comes down, double-spelling the turn after, or even just using the mana for equips and flashback. There's also a good deal of 7/8 drops in the format you really need auracite or card draw to be able to cast.
>>96076234>>96076545Plat and below is subhuman levels of intelligence, games are basically free wins until diamond when you start playing against people with 40%+ winrates.

does your unranked mmr affect your matchmaking in ranked?
like in theory if I forfeit 100 games in a row in unranked will it start matching me with complete retards in ranked, without lowering my rank?
>>96078528your hidden MMR can matter a lot in mythic, don't sweat it too much.
you're much better off play against an average mythic player than running into me on a gold ranked alt account lol
plenty of the best players don't draft enough to have a high rank. diamond/mythic players are mostly just annoying because they're more likely to be forcing the meta deck of the set.
>>96078123i have a whole brawl deck around it
>>96078544No theres 3 separate hidden MMR. Your ranked constructed, your ranked limited and your "standard play" (including all mid week magic events, play in, brawl, etc.).
You used to be able to concede like 50 games at diamond 4 or plat 4 to lower your mmr (you need to play at least 2 cards for the match to count so people would just use leylines and mulliganing as much as needed for at least 2 leylines). This now is bannable after some dude on reddit exposed the strategy and theres auto-detection if you lose too many at a ranked floor within certain amount of turns.

hey um so /edhg/ is just talking about pokemon and anythin non-mtg now fully and /mtg/ is just full of larping schizos. may I migrate so I can ask a rules question.
if I gain control of a warped permanent from an opponent and it gets exiled at eot due to the warp, who gets to cast it? the last controller or the original caster? I'd guess caster since I'm thinking the exiling is a delayed trigger created by cast it no matter who has it. also would it exile on the same turn it was warped regardless and not on the endstep of the new controller? dunno if the rules are up yet
What do I do when in bo3 draft in both games I drew 15 lands while my opp is at 5 lands.
>>96081618I don't think rules are updated yet. I'd assume it's the owner who gets to cast it, since it's a delayed trigger like you said.
>>96081664Second match. First game I had 10 lands my opp 5. Second game I casted 3 spells and had 13 lands while my opp was at 6.
>>96081774Third match I was stuck at one color and the second game I got curved out. 6 non magic games in a row.
I think this looks fine. I wanna squeeze the hecteyes for the Gabranth and ambrosia but looks correct.
