    MTG: Arena

    chess clock isn't how magic works though paper magic doesn't discourage complex decks which involve counting, sequencing plays and stacking triggers shortcutting is also officially allowed, if you can prove you can repeat a combo and the opponent can't interact, you can just say "I'm going to...

    MTG: Arena

    Its 7 mana in an environment that can kill by turn 4-5. It's a pretty poor card given the environment, noone is winning tournaments with it.

    EA and WOTC have successful online games and Activision-Blizzard is failing hardcore.

    That is solely based on CoD, which has already been taken over by the BR games. It is an Activision game. What blizzard games have generated positive revenue? 1/5 isn't going to sustain the brand name and its incompetent employees. Activision already chlorine gassed the blizzard folks...

    EA and WOTC have successful online games and Activision-Blizzard is failing hardcore.

    I'm sure your hopes and dreams will outweigh bobby 'never played a game' koticks "I WANT MORE REVENUE, RMT THAT SHIT UP" directions. If SCIII launched tomorrow, it would be a mobile game where you pay 5$^ to build a barracks, so its better this way.

    what is up timmy people using a card you can't afford and/or don't understand? don't worry, next expansion has a GGG 8/8 drop

    It takes 7 riffle shuffles to randomize a deck, few people take the effort, the AI always does.

    you didn't mention when it seems to dry up, so here is both scenario's if it dries up in the first booster, there is a bot in that direction that is taking your shit and you might want to reconsider switching depending on the cards you have, booster 2 should be good but 3 will be ass again if...

    MTG: Arena

    I'm worried they will simplify the game IRL to accommodate online play. Stacking triggers and repeating menial tasks is very time-consuming MTGA, it doesn't even have the "and save targets .." option MTGO has. Anything involving animations consumes even more time.

    EA and WOTC have successful online games and Activision-Blizzard is failing hardcore.

    In 2018 Blizzard didn't meet Activision's expectations and Activision-Blizzard shit on their customers' expectations. Blizzcon was a trainwreck. They have a couple of franchises left which they haven't completely fucked up, but given their recent track record, it is likely only a matter of...

    Everquest - 20th Anniversary TLP

    on one hand, instancing makes the game boring and crushes player involvement, since everyone has their own sandbox there is no rivalry between guilds and there are very few emotions involved on the other hand, the great majority of the current EQ audience only wants to play ez-mode eq this is...

    Can you please stop discouraging poor people from playing MTG? I don't have an English tabernacle not to mock them. Delver on turn one off basic island, T2 another delver off second basic? Lets class mtg.

    Just 7-2 my 2nd sealed, after I 6-2ed the first. The average player skill level seems very low. On MTGO I usually made 2-3 sealed decks, then picked the best, on Arena I just threw some pile together, replaced a land with a card and was ready. Having played legacy for far too long, it seems...

    also my 40$ teferi / nexus standard deck (lol cheap price bro's) lost to the gate deck unsure which is better, white weenie wrecks both though, as well as mono red aggro, so I'm rolling with that

    A minimal financial contribution and a mediocre amount of skill will get you whatever deck you want. This statement has been made several times. You aren't being flamed enough considering your ignorance on the topic.

    I hate MTGA and everything it presents, but claiming it is pay to win is an excessive display of (mental) poverty.

    And I've found the chromosome smuggler of the MTG:A FoH thread, what is your point again? I don't give a fuck that you can't spend 10$ a week on MTG:A, you being poor seems correct based on your posts in this thread, so don't blame it on that.

    Noone with experience and info is going to argue that aggro decks are extremely cheap on MTG:A, and effective due to the format, so what exactly do you want me to prove?

    MTG: Arena

    I grinded to gold in about 5 hours with a white weenie deck. Did you ever consider you are a shitty player? Or that a 5 hour / month time investment shouldn't give you everything available? There isn't much of a middle ground between these based on your statements.

    Every pauper deck that ever won a league? The point is you could get a cheap deck on MTGO and if you are the undiscovered LSV you can make gains with that deck, and MTGA made it even easier. The entry barrier is the lowest it has ever been with mtg arena, with literally every card being...

    MTG: Arena

    I downloaded the client and spent 300$ to build whatever deck I want. The correct statement is "the game is timmy pays to win", since combo decks are a hassle to play and the BO1 format being as popular as it is benefits simple agro strats. Stacking teferi / wilderness triggers and resolving...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    3 months after I asked Brogean to investigate a Sirken issue, no response, Sirken hasn't been back and the whole thing has been forgotten. Seems like a legit operation.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    It really is time people stopped considering "the big companies" as solid. Those times have come and gone. I expect pre-release sales to crash in the coming year, and especially the EA/blizzard/bethesda ones. After star citizen crashes the market will hopefully reform for the better.

    MTG: Arena

    If your opponent lands a 2 drop that can put pressure, you want to cast something during your next turn if you don't have board presence. If your opponent gets unlucky and ends up with some garbage creatures, start casting later and make sure you get to at least 7. Casting 1-2 drops just...

    How much real money have MMOs made you?

    I was told cheatengine could also be used to edit values & timers, since obviously a large part of the RMAH thing was client side, but never looked into it. Blizzard was already failing back then, obviously. Though I greatly enjoyed their amateurism.
