I see that the win scale at the bottom continues offscreen. Are there better rewards for doing even better? Or does the deck just get retired afterward?

It goes up to 7 wins for max rewards before you get 3 losses. Once you hit either your draft with that deck is over.

@@TheSkarTV Sorry I was talking about the assistant apps that kind of tell exactly which to cards to select. I'd rather build that skill than having aggregate data tell me what is meta. Like the idea of Quick Draft is fun. You have time to examine your current deck vs your current pick but bot signals are way off I feel. If I had 90 seconds against humans to pick; I would draft that way (assuming the chance / rewards of winning was the same or better). My struggle is really the first 5 to 10 picks when no cards are screaming to me.

Is it a good idea to do at least a two color draft? Seems like if you did a single color, if other players chose that color as well, you might not have enough carts to really effectively build a 40 car deck. So if you choose at least two colors or a multi color deck do you have a few options when selecting cards. I have yet to play A draft game and I’m trying to understand how the card selection works. Thanks
@TheSkarTV3 жыл бұрын
Yeah I mean you could probably draft multiple colors if that’s what being passed around. Just keep on the look out for cards to help fix your mana. In the example in the video sometimes a particular color is just open.

So essentially the only way to progress the Limited rank is to spend gems? There's no way to try it if I have a free-only account? It's about 10$, that seems really steep just for an attempt.
@TheSkarTV3 жыл бұрын
So the draft modes can be paid with gold its 5000 for the quick draft and 10000 for the premier one. Depending if you spent any gold since you started playing you roughly have about 4000 or so right after the tutorial, which is almost enough for 1 quick draft. The better you get at draft the more wins you end up with and the better the payout in the end to the point of where your draft pays for the next one over and over and you build your collection that way.

I know this is a few months old now. But i just started playing this game about a week ago. Not new to online CCG's though. I had a question since i'm a tad confused. I got the confidence today to try my first draft. I picked the quick draft because it told me that I was going to be doing bot AI matches. But from what i saw i wound up battling against real people and i'm not sure why this happened. The only conclusion i had is that perhaps the devs programmed their AI to try and mimic human behaviors. But i question that simply because the normal bot matches the AI is trash. Usually if you click to say things like good game or nice or something like that the AI responds 100% of the time or not at all. But in all 3 of my matches i only got responded to by the first player. And i'm almost 100% certain that cards only highlight from real players. I couldnt imagine them making their AI so smart it hovers over cards on the board in order to highlight them. So either im really stupid and their AI in draft does stuff i've never seen in any other online CCG which in that case, i would be very impressed. Or somehow i got matched vs real people even though i did quick draft. Like i said im pretty much brand spanking new to MTGA. So it could be just me being dumb and uninformed lol. I'm just really confused as to what happened to me in that draft lol.

Like deck building in general you work from a pool of cards. In draft with the pool of cards being more limited you are trying build a collection of cards drafted to build the best deck possible. Sometimes you get extra cards of the color you aren’t building around or just cards that aren’t as good.
