Man, magic is so fun, but there's a reason I don't play competitive

 

competitive is actually pretty fun as long as you go in with the right mindset. i don’t have the links right now but there are articles that talk about players getting burnt out, and how to make it less likely to happen

i like learning more than winning so it’s been pretty good

 

dis good

 

Same here. I have a close group that gets together 2-3 times a year for EDH and modern, and that's good enough. It's great that the game can exist in so many different contexts and still be a blast to play.

 

Wtf

 

stop ramping green

 

I don’t get why they keep doing this with green. It’s getting out of hand.

 

it costs 7cmc though. i feel like it’s more for commander

 

definitely for commander. It was Command Zone's preview card.

 

at work atm, does it look good?

 

its diablo, but you can store "cards" which are basically your summoning spells. They are either creatures that fight with you momentarily or sorcery spells with AOE abilities. Its nowhere near that level but looks serviceable. It says the footage is pre-alpha, so I'm not gonna give it a hard time for anything aesthetic issues.

 

Oko banned in modern

 

And Mox Opal and Mycosinth Lattice

People are stoked at work lol

 

lmao. guess i’ll just keep my borderless oko as a collection

 

I'm fine with Oko and Lattice eating the banhammer but the Mox Opal ban straight up killed Scales, Lantern, Affinity, the infamous Urza decks and the older Tezzerator decks. Urza should have gone. They're always talking about metagame diversity as a factor in those decisions, yet they just booted off a bunch of perfectly fine decks from the format.

 

Opened 20 packs. Got an Erebos and nothing else of note.

 

Arena has a bunch of problems for me. I always lose connections.

 

i Google twice a month to see if Arena is coming to mobile. i miss Magic so much but the days of having the traditional game be part of my life are just over

 

The way it burns up memory on my PC, I don't know how it could. My laptop is on fire every time I play.

 

I haven't opened Arena in forever and I logged in today just to see the new stuff and it's still updating lol

 

damn sounds poorly optimized which is surprising to me. is it heavy on animations?

 

I think Wizards hires the developers everyone else fires.

 

I have settings reduced all the way down and my computer still burns through the battery lightning fast.
