This game is rage inducing.

[Black Mirror]

I played 2 games and I'm already screaming at swearing at the screen. It seems like the cards are made by idiots that don't even know what balance is and any given deck needs to include like 10 - 14 removal cards of different kinds (exile, destroy, -x/-x) to be even close to playable, on top of stupid amounts of removal you need to include anoter 4 to 8 cards for card draw. Seriously the cards are so stupid that its unbelivable this game is still alive.

First game after I added Brotherhood's End to my deck is vs Elesh Norn. Such a coincidence. This matchmaking is so screwed that I don't even.

There is so many rage inducing and unbalanced cards, that I don't even. There is no strategy here, just luck. You play until you finally find something that you can win against and that can take hours on end. Phyrexian Obliterator and Tail Swipe, among countless other idiotic crap. You can't have counter for everything in 60 card deck, and on top of it all matchmaking will just troll you to death.

theres only a bit strategy in drafting a deck, but besides that its mainly luck on a certain level

Game could be luck based, but this one is way to rage inducing with all stupid cards, and how funny they are, putting more HP on most rage inducing cards, like seriosuly 4/7 card that blocks your strategy and its hard to destroy. Epic fun. Good that my mouse is very durable, the desk on the other hand is not.

And then you wake up. LOL.

hexproof & shroud is your answer if you cant counter or play from the grave, if its brawl or historic then even better as theres alot of choices.

No he is right. There are several decks without removal or card draw.

the topdecking/shuffler is really unreal sometimes (as i saw witnessed myself currently), and the matchmaking - you can read their latest statement regarding that and make up your own mind

This is kinda disingenuous though.
Boros convoke has case of the gateway express as removal and novice inspector and knight errant giving card advantage.
Gruul counters has your favorit burn cards as removal and questing druid and sometimes ancestral anger/demonic ruckus to draw.
Mono white humans has knight errant and recruitement officer for drawing, brutal cathar and sometimes the case or werefox as removal.
Mono blue ninjitsu has a bunch of bounce as removal and explores with spy glass siren for cardadvantage.
Green/white enchantments generally runs oscification as removal and spiritual companion (+calix to copy for more) for card advantage.

The only deck I can think of that doesnt really run removal and does well in mythic is rakdos aggro. Callous sellsword being the only black card, pump up your creatures and fling them. You can fling the creature at another creature though, and scamp can target creatures. So even though the damage always goes face, it could still be used as removal. And that also still often runs carddraw in ancestral anger or stolen vitality.

If the game makes you rage and you keep playing, you are seeking out this kind of engagement

Well its free to pay game and I don't want to pay so I need to grind the card rewards and stuff for like few months before I can have fun with the game.

One can make fantastic artisan decks and at least reach platinum with that. Some archtypes that are very suitable for this are orzhov toxic (I played an artisan version of this to diamond once), mono red aggro (either burn or pumping the creatures and flinging them), boros virtuoso, izzet spellslinger, mono blue tempo, azorius tempo, varius color combinations with blue for an artifact deck (abusing zaetic glyph and unctus retrofitter), rakdos sacrifice... most decks and playstyles can work without rares.

You can get the common and uncommon wildcards easily and if you dont already have enough, you can play jump in or starter deck duals to get started.
