I think people forget how much CGB love drawing, I genuinly believe that he would rather have his entire library on hand than winning the game

As a fellow control mage, touching cards is like crack. I don't care if I win. Let me touch every card in my deck. Let me HOLD them.

It's so much fun. I have a somewhat janky gates deck where I had 119 cards in hand the other day as I hit them with my 64 power Dream Trawler. They were lifegain (like half the meta in historic) and were a little surprised that 54 life wasn't enough to survive 1 turn.

This is absolutely a chore to play against. Memory Deluge is by far the most broken card in the deck. Waiting for your opponent to stall out until their third Jace is incredibly boring. At least mono Red has the decency of killing you quickly.

@Sandovian 7 ай бұрын

I'm on something similar. Two less direct removal for Depopulate and Farewell, and I play with the Elspeth's Smite spot. Map tokens can turn off Smite. Will run Knockout Blow instead if I'm facing alot mono red. Anyway. It's not a pleasant grinding deck. Durdle control is like casual+ MtG strategy, and folks still get salty over the Mill. Still too much value when cards ETB, also. I wonder if maybe the meta needs more counterspells or discard than it currently runs.

@SupeRTIT4N 7 ай бұрын

@Sandovian 7 ай бұрын

Arena is necessarily impersonal. WotC made it that way intentionally. Also, no. I don't cheerfully Hello! everyone I play with in real life. That involves actual conversation and a back and forth - which is not similar to Hello! It's kind of like the folks who say glhf at the start of every OW match. If it's always said, it becomes meaningless. The least toxic emote is not using emotes.
