Nobody runs all of those together, you're not likely to see more than 1 of them per match.
Meanwhile every bluetroon does nothing but counter everything you do until they have their instant win condition ready.

Not just control either. I still remember the long streak of ragequits when I played a cancerous Lurrus deck, good times.

I mean yeah, that'd be ideal, but since people are intent on acting immature and trying to annoy others rather than simply conceding, may as well have a laugh about it.
Course it also feels like the threshold some people have for not wanting to play vs a deck is lower and lower, back during ONE I ran a simple Urabrask's Forge deck and some people sharted and went for timeouts the second I got it rolling because god forbid they put a first strike in their deck or something
At least I could understand some of the frustration with the nearly non-interactive poison/proliferate decks at that time lmao

>MTG has been a meme game for decades, stop pretending a spider-man card is what sent it over the top
I'm not but the enshittening has been far worse in the last few years (let's say around Arena). Just look at the mechanics or busted cards
There are bunch of formats nowadays and it's all just bullshit MtG was always a bit alienating to new players because precons are unusable for whatever reason and Standard, the beginner friendly format, is expensive as shit too.
Now if someone new wants to try out the game (eg. Arena), they're smacked on the head with all the formats and digital exclusive formats

You can just say MTG is gay or whatever, no one is gonna argue with you, but you keep saying retarded shit that is wrong and contradictory.
>enshittening has been far worse
it's been dogshit since before hasbro bought it, then it became turbo dogshit. Any format besides kitchen table is gay nonsense and the game shouldn't be taken seriously by anyone at any level, and once you accept that you just learn to chuckle at the novelty of sonic the hedgehog and Avatar Aang fighting Nicol Bolas and Godzilla.

as a mono-red enjoyer who loves target changers and plays against black goodstuffs/hand hate all the time, that spell, while great, is limited pretty much to Seize.
99% of the other effects are like Duress, and unfortunately use 'target OPPONENT' instead. in 1v1 this makes redirects literally useless, since YOU are the only legal target. I honestly hate it from a design standpoint. fine if you're playing 4player commander, but its really un-interactable for all colors but blue in 1v1.

Regular MtG sets are just awful (eg. Aetherdrift)
They make a a lot of crossovers and shit out cards.

It (sadly) doesn't work that way, which is why like I said, I hate it. It SHOULD work for exactly why you described. but it does not. because, you are not changing OWNERSHIP of the spell, the spells controller is still them. The game rules will let you cast the spell and it WILL resolve, but it will resolve changing the target RIGHT back to you.
Try it on MTGO or Arena. It's how it works. It ultimately makes sense. But it's dumb. Play rule of cool or resolve it how you will when playing at a table, go off. Thats how magic should be IMO. It should just work. pic related. its one of my favorite newer spells. Amazing flexability to fuck 5c goodstuffs nonsense in red. But hand hate? Oh sorry. Pay 3 mana do nothing hehe.

White is about 'order and structure', so the end result will be late stage capitalism. I wish we would get more white mana villains. I'm tired of WOTC using black/white as morality compasses despite them explicitly being designed to NOT be that.

If anything that's nuMTG, black was originally designed as the explicitly evil color.

Even then we had creative new planes like amonkhet or eldraine after our third revisit to ravnica.
It didn't feel like they truly ran out of ideas until the nu phyrexia saga ended and they just tied all the planes together. There isn't even a greater story happening anymore, everybody is kind of just farting around.

Counterspells aren't the issue, 0 cost counterspells are. Force of Will, Pact of Negation, Force of Negation, Mindbreak Trap*.
*Mindbreak Trap is an actually decent one because it's typically in response to someone going off instead of denying a setup.

discard and seeing their hand is good and similar but not equivalent
a big part of counterspells strength is that your opponent used their mana to cast that spell so you can effectively deny them a turn and even just the possibility of you having one and open mana can force them to play unoptimally

Because they are liars. It's not about complexity, it's about power level. Nu slivers by their very nature are stronger since they don't affect your opponents or randomly buff their shapeshifters.

I think I'd like to see them expand on what they did with outlaw with creature types having inherent categories so you can just say other mundane animal types, realistically it will still need reminder text but you can maybe occasionally ditch the reminder text to fit more actual rules on a card and more importantly the card gets automatically updated with new creature types.
Of course outlaw does also lead to the same question as

I got into Yugioh a bit when Duel Links came out freshly and there were few cards and you know the rest of the story with how the new cards coming out added on top and felt good.

You could buy a precon with a friend and start from there, irl.
If you don't want to spend money you can try mods on tabletop simulators, where you import decks from tapped out or other sites(where you can also bukld your own decks) or one of the many online clients.
If you want a singleplayer thing, try mtg forge.

you have two choices
>Standard
Its the default 60 card format designed for playing the game. Its fun but also competitive. You build decks around a said style of play and then play rounds usually.
This format is the intended way for beginners to learn the game. LGS stores usually encourage beginners and will loan you decks etc to learn.
>Commander
This format is different. 100 card decks, 1 copy of each card only except basic lands. This format is more your casual player format. Its often played with 3-4 players at a table. Decks are designed around a theme or a playstable of the commander card. The commander is a card on the field that is your main hero basically. This format is mainly designed for casual play. Buying a precon or preconstructed deck is usually how you learn with others.
Thats the jist of it.
I started with Commander and ill say, I recommend learning Standard first even if it is harder at first.

au contraire, if it wasn't for the trooning, everyone would've bought Lotr.
it actually had a much stronger marketing jab with having a 1/1 unique card as well as being made for eternal formats (cards are never gonna rotate)

Yes faggot, the best magic is taking a pile of cards you opened up and fighting your friends with them. Commander says no fun allowed you can't choose to run more than 1 of a card and you have to make the deck a specific size. Try doing aggro, mill or burn in commander without some absurdly powerful modern card that says commander on it.

You really, REALLY, don't.
1. You don't want to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to catch up on your collection, just so you can become competitively viable.
2. It's a shit game that is designed poorly.
3. There are better games out there, for cheaper. Newer, better designed games that don't require you to go broke just to catch up with the meta.
4. Even those games are a waste of time and money since the whole selling point of TCGs, creative deck making and collecting, flies straight out of the window when there is always the mathematically proven objectively correct and only deck to play. Every card outside of that one deck is just a trap that wastes your money.
Don't do TCGs, kids.

Well played, Kaiba. However, you have forgotten a crucial element.
Your Dragonstorm allowed you to search your deck for quite a few dragon cards... which means, naturally, that you have searched your library.
After your first Dragonstorm resolves, I cast all of my Archive Traps, which now cost 0! And I happen to have drawn four of them in my opening hand, milling you for 52- and leaving you entirely without a library, meaning the succeding copies of Dragonstorm cannot search for anything- and you die next turn, Kaiba!

I like EDH, but I do not like how every standard set is clearly designed to pander to it now. Every other rare is legendary. With every other multicolor spell being unusable trash outside EDH, and having no synergy with the actual set it came in.

Congratulations, you have finally understood that "Commander is the casual format" really means that since you can't really care about winning in a multiplayer format then you funnel all of your efforts into "winning" by having the fanciest deck or the most blinged out cards, or the deck with the best theme, etc, etc...
It is even more of an arms race than competitive 60 card formats ever were.

EDH will always be more casual on the basis of larger decks and more opponents. If you play with bumbling retards that still haven't comprehended the basic fundamentals of deck building, and no one responds to threats, yeah you'll be miserable.

No, EOE is the result of Mark wanting to make the most recent un-set standard legal. Thankfully, the most powerful card in the set is a great Impulse variant and all of the other cards are weak / too parasitic to see much play so you don't see much of it anywhere.

The monoists are a nearly entirely black (heh) faction that wants to exile others and themselves. Last I checked that's not what the humans want to do.
