In today's video, we will be talking about where to start when diving into mtg arena. In this mtg arena beginner guide, we talk about what to do after completing the initial tutorial in arena and help get you the best start when starting mtg arena. The game does a good job of teaching the basics but it doesn't help you figure out how to start playing the game at a higher level. If you like the video hit that like button. If you are new here and want to know when I post new videos on the channel hit that subscribe button and enjoy the video.

Thanks for the "Jump In" recommendation. Was getting crushed in standard and ranked by constructed decks. Assumed there had to be a place for beginners. Been winning at least 50% in Jump in plus learning card mechanics and collecting decks and gold!

Still bull though, wish there was some sort of a disclaimer in game. I've lost so much 'hard earned' gold attempting the different events. Extremely frustrating after grinding for days just to get smashed aside by wealthy players. Though I guess this is the real magic experience I remember as a kid. Ignorance and poverty 😂

The majority of formats involve staring at an empty board. Jump in is a rare format where they can't load up on so much control/wipe that they can keep the board empty until they find their win combo. Otherwise get used to not getting to experiment with decks because anything except a narrow set of archtypes have any chance of even creating a board presence. I don't mind losing in magic, because it used to be really fun to build up a board presence and go head to head, and attack with enough creatures that your opponent would have to make some tough choices about what to block and what collateral damage they'd take. Even if you lost the experience was varied. Now the experience is basically whoever gets the ramp they need in the first few turns dominates, and if you ever have a game where you get slightly ahead they insta-concede because it's not worth their time to draw out a challenging game.

all cards go into your collection. You can access them by creating/editing any decks you may have. Also there is a collection button at the bottom of the deck screen where you can look at your cards and how many copies of each card you have.

Kind of new to the game and I have a question. Some of the starter Decks (e.g. Sky Patrol or Lifeline) appear only under "My Decks" but not under "Starter Decks". Now normally I would like to delete all the Starter Decks from the "My Decks" part and I did so for the decks that were once under "My Decks" and once under "Starter Decks", since I can simply copy them over if I wanted them. However, I don't want to delete the ones that are only in "My Decks" and not in "Starter Decks" like e.g. Sky Patrol, since I don't want to lose the deck list. Is there a way to get all these decks into the "Starter Deck" Section, so I can clean out the "My Decks" section for only the decks I truly built myself or that I intend to use?

it definitely can be especially when you are still learning the ropes and building a collection. Jump in is great way to see how the cards work together and sometimes how they don’t. Also it’s a great place to build a collection for little risk. Once you build up more of a collection and currency you can dive into building that first deck.

yeah the client still has its issues tho ive had the best luck with it directly from the website. Being thrown right into the power house decks of the format is never fun as a new player or someone whose more limited in their collection. Jump in is an okay inbetween but i feel like there should be a bit more the game does for newer players players overall.

just trying to figure out how to get arena to stop taping the wrong floating mana like for instance i have to black removal spells i need to cast both of them i have 5 mana 2 red and 3 black one spell is double black and one colorless the other is 1 colorless and one black it highlights 2 black mana when i go to cast the 2 drop spell and then leaves me with not enough black mana to cast the other sure i could just re order the cast but i would really like to know how to chose the mana i want to use...
@TheSkarTV
@TheSkarTV Жыл бұрын
you can tap the mana manually simply by clicking on the lands you want to tap to before casting the spell. what will happen is it will float the mana you choose and when you drag the spell to cast it the game will use the floated mana first. This is something you also want to do if you play the rare dual lands for dominaria as the auto-tapper won't tap the lands that do damage to you.

I dont value the cosmetics and maybe your first chance at a mastery pass is more value cause you are getting pets, emojis and a bit of digital product.

Are you talking resetting the tutorials or something like that? If you finish the daily quests for the starters the newest starters in game should be in you deck tab below your created decks. Another suggestion would be to play the jump in event to get the newest cards in the game. Outside of that there isn’t any way to reset progress in the game.
