facing decks running tier 0 cards isn't fun when it keeps happening in a row. smothering tithe into rystic study. then cabereti revels into arming gala. no thanks, I closed the game and have no desire to play anymore today. Your matchmaker has cured me of the need to play MTG. Have a good day!

It's not going to be part of arena they've already stated this so remember going forward that if you're gonna drop Arena for Commander Online or w/e they call it you're going to be face with a.) having to buy/earn a whole collection again from the ground up again or b.) it'll be maybe be pay-2-play but even if not everyone will have the same pool of cards meaning you'll be faced with the same problem of only seeing 3-5 decks within a week. Not sure how I feel about commander with 2 people running the same deck and the 3rd running the deck 2 people ran last game.

In what world are smothering tithe and rhystic study top tier in 1v1 brawl? They're good in 4 player commander because they scale well with the number of players. In commander, if people don't pay the 2, smothering tithe pays itself off in a bit over a turn cycle (less if there are additional draws which again, is more common in commander than brawl). In brawl it takes 4 turn cycles so it doesn't really ramp well.

In 1v1, people are far more likely to pay the 1 for rhystic study and there are less opponents casting spells and there's less pressure on them to build up a board state quickly because their only opponent took a turn off to cast rhystic study. If they're playing on curve, you set them back a turn by spending your own turn to do so. If they weren't curving out, you spent a turn basically doing nothing. It is bad in 1v1.

i think we'd all prefer flumph to ornithopter

the tier system is based on the more sophisticated system arena uses for brawl. stop playing atraxa.

I'll let you play against them then.
