Magic still sucks these days. Don't bother

[HOCHI MINH]

Crucias and the one ring is 50% of the decks in alchemy.

No ban in sight. I don't know why I wanted to try and get back into magic. They used to ban stupid stuff like Skullclamp right away.

Not anymore. Just let it run.

For experienced players, reading a card like One Ring even without playing a match against it blatantly shows it is busted, for WoTC not caring about balance is their main probelm and its the reason I am not buying prereleases and stuff anymore. Orcish Bowmaster for another instance, toughness 1 cards get no play anymore and it was obvious before the set release which severely shrinks the card options when it is already small where meta rules. I think balance is not a priority when you have cards that don't need test plays to prove they are broken.

I was playing actively before the Crucias nerf (which took forever to happen) and I can say things were much worse, not that they are good now.

Not busted.

More cards are better. Your just low level still

It was good to start, but so many decks have been added that there is no balance anymore. Creature decks are nigh impossible to use now as everytime you try, it gets (i forget the term as not played in a while) countered ? or blown up in one form or another before you can attack and at the time, at least %90 of the players were doing it. Got boring and tedious.

I liked the older games, but played them so much I have had enough. Then arena came out and started ok, but died horribly.

There was a local game shop that has groups that play in the evening, so I ordered a load, went over, but wound up spending the next 6 weeks playing P&P DnD, which almost drove me to tears with boredom. I kept trying to get them to play Magic, but the majority rule left me with either continue P&P, or quit.

So it's either play broken magic arena, or suck it up ad play P&P DnD. Neither tyvm.

I used to like waiting for the next in the series of a specific game, but so many have started this 1 game forever with updates, just wind up killing themselves and end up with dead game and nothing new.

Oh and there is the waifu editions. Getting Smothering Tithe 🙂

laugh at me. I dont own the mystic rares of it and just got the waifu-versions - now i cant play with them because the ones they are for are mystic rares and i only have the rare tithes from Ravnica Allegience in my tithe-deck. I will never use my wildcards to get them though, so well played Arena, but not well enough to make me waste the wildcards too.
