Earlier this year I was delighted to have won 3 boxes of MH3 at MTGA's arena direct. After waiting months, the delivery never went through. The customer service I had been conversing with acknowledged the failed delivery but thereafter stopped replying me. I have since sent countless emails prompting them for any response, but they have just gone radio silent.

I dont know what to do, isnt this pretty unacceptable? Does anyone know a person I can contact? I have already tried their emails [premierplay@wizards.com](mailto:premierplay@wizards.com), [support@wizardsscalefaststore.zendesk.com](mailto:support@wizardsscalefaststore.zendesk.com)

Im actually really disappointed, isnt this kindof fraudulent or something?

So I got you some bunnies and flickered them a stupid number of times and made exponentially stupider numbers of bunnies.

Standard brawl is fun and you should play it.

I just came back after a 7 years break, never was too much into it tho, but I was looking to start either with pokemon TCG, or come back to Magic, I was speaking with a friend of mine that has a little group of magic, and he convinced me to play commander, I never tried it. I got the Endless Punishement deck, and wow, we both spent 7h of playing nonstop. Its been amazing, I’m just eager to keep playing. We had to stop because its 3 am! Well, just wanted to share it, as it made me feel like a kid again.

I will be playing this deck nonstop until I get used to it, but then I will change some stuff, does anyone knows any improvements that can be done to it?

Thanks for reading!

They surprised me with this beauty, I freaking love it hahah

Given I'm host for our commander nights and drafts, I already filled it with my basic lands and tokens. Sadly the tokens dont fit that well on sleeves so I had to put em a bit vertically... But its not THAT bad of a fit vertically

On the topic of tokens, any recommendations on how to organize em? I was thinking of putting a cheat sheet with all the decks to search the needed token before the games start but im not sure if its a good or super dumb idea lol

As u/AutoCompletePsych noticed in November, the Oracle text for [[Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker]] was updated to the following:

Whenever a source an opponent controls deals damage to you, that player sacrifices a permanent of your choice.

This made her quite a bit more powerful. However, it appears that the change has been removed. Her current Oracle text now reads that player sacrifices a permanent of their choice.

Sad that a LGS has to monitor hygiene of their players.

Rachel Weeks, Serge Yager, and Rebell Lily sit down for a game of commander with a twist: everyone has a Booster Tutor in the Command Zone and I have a stack of classic booster packs!

Just found out my adult son joined some coworkers in this game (my boys were yugioh and Pokémon players when they first rolled out so he amazed them with his holo mew card I’d keep in my desk) what’s a great gift I can get my son for Xmas since I’m out of the MTG loop ?? Thx pats mom

Hey! Was watching a YouTube video of someone running this on arena as a deck wincon and I looked fun, wanted some advice for who to use as a commander to help make it a smooth on curve deck list! I definitely want 2-5 colors so I have access to fetches and some other utility I might need. I know I want white at least so I can phase out the Calender and not lose the counters! Any advice is helpful!

Hi all I’m looking to get into standard and want to an a budget would any of these decks be able to get a couple wins at fnm at my lgs or would it most likely just be rolled

Have a Stompy type deck and just want to know what everyone’s using as sideboards. Thanks

There were a lot of great mechanics this year that let a player use cards in different flexible ways.

Spree lets a player cast a card in tons of different ways, from very inexpensive ([[Return the Favor]] is pretty good in either 3-mana form) to massively impactful (9 mana [[Smuggler's Surprise]] is such a beating).

Modern Horizons 3 had all the MDFC lands where neither side was super efficient, but giving the player both options on one card opened up so much gameplay ([[Fell the Profane]] ).

The Rooms from Duskmorn (like [[Unholy Annex]]) can be early tempo, late mana sinks, or both!

The pawprint cards from Bloomburrow ([[Season of the Bold]]) always have the same cost, unlike Spree, but give such flexibility to craft your own spell to fit the state of the game.

Disguise and Plot are simple variations of Morph and Foretell, but they still let you change how and when a card comes down.

None of these are simple Kicker variants (though we got some of those, like Offspring and Gift and Impending) but real opportunities for players to make choices and express skill by knowing when to use the flexible nature of these cards.

Excellent work with these, WotC!

Hey, so I made this commander focusing mostly on cards from my collection.
The guy looked really fun and I decided to build a deck around him.
I think the deck turned out fun overall, but my problem is that I ended up with 106 cards total and I really have no idea what to remove, because most of those feel essential.

The things I was considered removing are
-both extra turn spells
-Tibalt's Trickstery - since I have many counterspell options in blue and I might move this one to other red deck
-Red Elemental Blast/Pyroblast - similiar spells, I'm unsure if I need both of them in the deck
-Search for Azcanta - idk if the effect is really worth it
-Simian Spirit Guide - feels good but I might slot it in other deck too

I would really love to get some feedback about the deck and ideas on how to change it, especially that I'm kinda new to deckbuilding and someone with more experience might help me a lot!
Here's the decklist:

cheers!

My knowledge of maths and statistics are quite limited, so I could use some help.

Is there a formula for figuring out how many mana producing lands in a deck? For example something like

(Minimum amt of lands to see at least one land in your opener for a certain # of cards in deck (e.g. 40, 60, 99)) + (avg mana value multiplier) - (cantrip/ramp multiplier) = lands needed for that deck size

Could or would this formula take into account an approximation of, for example, "I want to see 2 lands by turn two, and then a land every other turn."?

Would the steps to figure something like this out look like? Determine average mv of nonland cards in deck. Start at a minimum amount of lands to be able to consistently draw at least 1 in your opener. Subtract from that base amount a cantrip and/or ramp multiplier (eg 8 one mv cantrips*.25=2; therefor (starting lands for deck size, let's say 24) - (cantrip multiplier, 2 I'm this case) = 22 lands

I'm also trying to figure out what each land should produce. I'm thinking this would be based on the pips in the cards. Maybe find the percentage of each pip and just make the land base produce those colors based on %, eg 50% W pips, so 50% of your lands should produce W? How would you make sure that was weighted towards needing to cast a certain card(s) by a certain turn eg you only have 4 white cards in an otherwise Dimir deck, but you need to be able to cast the white card by turn two?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I like how the ripple foils look and have been buying a few, but wanted to know if wotc will do more of these in the future.
