Magic: The Gathering Arena

Braindead gameplay
I love that Mythic rank is actually filled with zero creativity. Just faced the SAME deck twice in a row. I guess some new setup was brought out online or something but the amount of people who find enjoyment in full counter deck gameplay have to be some of the worst people in game and IRL. I cannot fathom getting a single milligram of seratonin from just keeping the board wiped. Its not even a game at that point is it.
Instead of some fun quick gameplay, with some big round 3-5 plays and setups, its now filled with people who find more fun in just making sure nothing stays on the board. Good to know when I see these decks, I can now just forfeit and stare at a wall for 30mins bc its about the same experience. But please, keep having fun by not actually playing the game with ANY semblance of a soul.
And if you disagree, you're one of them, you follow meta decks and are incapable of putting creativity into the game, and have sucked the soul out of this card game. The worst of this community.

Every, Single, Game. Yeah, I know it can be disheartening seeing netdecks again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again but if I can offer advice? Just concede immediately and move on.

There is literally no victory in this game that matters. No matter how many times you win it doesn't make you look good in ANY way so if you're not having fun, move on immediately.

Daily "other people play the game wrong!" post, nothing to see here.

found the guy with the counter deck! Understand my issue is with specific play styles that turn the game into a 25min long ordeal of nothing happening. Also understand that my deck would have no problem stomping you, so maybe try posting something less braindead in another discussion or something

Lost souls stuck in a cycle of autopilot-grinding for coins to spend on more removal, no skill is attained, only more coins more removal

I've actually never made a counter deck; I just find it amusing when people launch into aggressive and self-righteous rants about decks they don't like.

I guess I can check off the "only people who play this deck could possibly disagree with my opinion!" and "I'm definitely not complaining because I just lost to this deck, I swear I stomp it 110% of the time!" tropes though. Keep talking, I wanna fill this BINGO card!

Go Highlander 250. Singleton land as well.

when i see that turn one heartfire hero plonked down i smile and stick it out and see where it goes, will only be 2-3 turns max, mythic is who can get lucky on who first, alternatively you can hit a patch where you win easily cos your opponent isn't drawing lands lol, mythicccc!

I also get curious after the opponent plays 4 removal spells on you, what exactly is he going to do after he's removed everything, play a heist creep?

Typically play a land and use it to bash your face in. Safest plan for control.

Play limited then, for some people that's the only format they play.
