a friend of mine was inspired by all the prime-number-related badmtgcombos to make a combo that asks your opponent to factor an arbitrary integer:

As someone who's been playing Standard a lot recently: I can't believe people actually like this combo. 12 is *so much mana*. If you're able to spend turns 3 and 4 doing nothing, then pay 2 life on turn 5, AND dodge a disenchant or counterspell, you deserve to win.

Gonna go out on a limb here and predict Innkeeper's Talent will need a ban in Standard. The combo with Vraska is far too hard to interact with, and the 3-4-5 curve is really strong and requires just two cards. This combo will be legal for at least a year otherwise.

You think your deck just fell out of a coconut tree? You draft in the context of all in which you pick and what was picked before you.

@rcondon17 @terribadmtg yep, i always try to force my p1p1 in the sense that once i pick a card p1p1 it is part of the context in which i'm drafting, and it will always influence what "staying open" looks like going forward.

I have a lot of thoughts on this thread, responding to a lot of different parts of it. The TL;DR is: Magic has always had variance. Play boosters have slightly increased that variance in sealed, yes - but the amount that variance has been increased is extremely negligible. 1/x

I'm not a great limited player. If anything, I've been willing to outwork everyone. With Play Boosters introducing more variance, my prep matters less and less. To put it bluntly, this weekend was a massacre. I'm going to be taking some time off. Some thoughts:

Wotc needs to stop removing reminder text, just had a prerelease opponent try to craft this with one merfolk (instead of all four types), apparently he’d confirmed with the judge 3 times during building too. Really feel-bad situation, props to him for handling it pretty well.

Random thought I was reminded of: people should challenge established thought more in Magic, instead of just assuming that someone else knows best. Magic has many local optima that are far from globally optimal, so local optimization is not nearly as important as exploration.

Wotc should accomodate non-English-speaking players better. My opponent asked a judge whether he could get a visual view of my pool bc he couldn’t read English cardnames. There wasn’t a great solution so I just shuffled my deck into my pool (removing basics) and handed it to him.

Hot take: printing fewer cards like this is not obviously good. WotC has already been doing a good job of making sure no commons are *truly* unplayable - I think I've played all but 1 or 2 of the commons in WOE? Especially in sealed, they contribute to strategic depth. (1/3)

Will be making a video on this later. In short, I'm a fan! I think this is a good thing, net positive, though not 100% upside. One really nice thing is it means they have to print fewer common slot fillers like this one, more playable cards in packs is great!

I understand that Innkeeper's Talent has other text too, but overall I've just never been afraid of this deck. The combo is interesting and an okay facet to add to a Golgari deck, but by no means is it "too hard to interact with" or at all worth a ban.

But in reality, while rares of course do matter, the truth is that the true outlier pools here just don't make up that much of the total. Having many rares doesn't matter if none of them are good, or if none of them are in supported colors. 3/x

@Jenn_the_Judge Murder resolves and kills Lilah, and then Lilah’s trigger resolves. Then Denial resolves, since it still has a legal target (but doesn’t do anything because the bear has nothing to fight) - so it goes into exile, plotted. Lilah did not lose the fight and so stays undefeated.

There is so much *more* equity to be gained in building well, playing well, and sideboarding well. Sure, having a baseline more powerful pool is going to help, but really you'll only see a meaningful difference with the top 10% of decks at most. 4/x

It's a bit too late for me to audible to this for the RC, and there isn't really much to do after the RC, buuuuuuuuuuut... It'd be a shame if this list were to go to waste. So I'm posting it here, in the hopes that someone is more brave than I am :)

5th?!?! That's higher than I expected tbh. Very amusing to see my small sample size and high win% compared to those around me too :P (these are correlated, part of why my win% is high is bc my sample size is small; I just haven't really had a bad tournament yet)

We did it! is live with Elo 2.0, thanks to a herculean effort from @ajolipa . 1. Read the most recent blog post for some info on what's new and what's coming. 2. Check your history, your friends' history, etc. There are a lot of errors to find. Goodnight!

Registered my 75, feeling very good about this tournament. Will post more thoughts on Thursday or Friday when things are more public, but the important thing for now is that we broke it (as always, of course :P)

Honestly, my favorite part of this PT is that I feel like I learned a lot in both the testing process and the tournament, and vastly improved as a constructed player. Special shoutout to @Essaria1 for basically single-handedly teaching me how to play control.

If someone tells me their pronouns, I am just going to accept that in good faith, no questions asked. If they're "trolling" me and don't actually use those pronouns, well, who's the fool really? Me, in showing basic respect? Or them, lying to try and fail at getting a rise? 2/3

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! In which we celebrate the horrifying ordeal and wonderful joy of being seen. So hi! I'm a nameless entity who goes by Jason for convenience, and I'm trans in a mostly agender way. I use any pronouns except he/him, with a slight pref for it/its.

Anyways, onto constructed! Deck is a banger, would not be surprised if someone on Sanctum got featured (somehow got 14/15 of us on gurk).

Was talking on Discord a bit about why I think the UW tap deck failed design-wise this format, and figured I'd translate my points here. So, here's a thread: 1/x

Love walking around SCG CON team tables as a judge and seeing Standard players gurkin’ it up. Also love answering judge questions about the deck :P

Honestly curious if there's something about this format that's more skill-testing than usual. Everything from Arena pick orders and 17lands data being worse than usual, to the 100k feeling softer than I expected even day 2, to so many strong players doing well in events.

@BatesMtg While I understand the desire to not have to pay a pretty-below-standard-rate $30 for one hour of coaching, framing this as a discriminatory markup is beyond cringe.

Majestic Metamorphosis is a pretty underrated card right now in SNC. It foes a lot of things, and is pretty comparable to Suit Up from NEO. But I suspect many people don’t quite realize just nhow many small things it does, so here are some lines you might’ve missed. 1/4

Dud someone say SPELUNKING??? Shoutouts to Sophie and @cftsoc3 for working with me on this spicy @SanctumOfAll brew. Sophie is on Jund 60 card Beseech, and cft and I are on 4-color Yorion BTL. Deck is sweet, though the combo lines are a bit… involved. Let’s crush it tomorrow!

There is a reason why you see the same people over and over at the top of sealed tournaments. There is a reason why I played slaxx in the WOE 100k finals. Sealed high variance, and play boosters increase that slightly, but there is still a huge amount of skill to express. 7/x
