Pic 2 (Respectful) deck: https://www.17lands.com/deck/df682b80ab7e4bdbba2e597a97c98a22/0

This is my first non-white based deck (I usually do 5-10 drafts per set), but the rares were flowing. I know I should probably just run the wUB deck, but the wUBrG "Let's Have Fun!" deck is calling me. I should probably be running 17 lands but not sure which card to cut in the nuts deck.

Pick 2 Draft value?

Is Pick 2 Draft your favorite? Or do you prefer traditional draft despite being lower EV?

Things like queue time, difficulty, enjoyment, and collection growth all matter too.

I tried out Pick 2 Draft here:

If your goal is maximizing a F2P account, where are you spending your gold right now?

I made a free MTG Draft Companion app for casual paper drafts and looking for feedback

Hi everyone!

I started playing Magic in high school, took a long break, and got back into it a few years ago when I found out some friends/coworkers were also playing in my new city. Since then, we draft almost every new set together.

Because our group is usually small, we often play Winston-style drafts with 2–5 players. Over time, we wanted something simple to track matches, rankings, decks, set/card info, and draft results without jumping between several different tools.

So I built MTG Draft Companion, a free app made mainly for casual paper draft groups. It supports small friendly groups, but also works for groups up to 12 players.

I just released it, so I’m sure there are still things missing or rough around the edges. But I wanted to share it with the community in case other groups have similar needs, and I’d be very grateful for any feedback, suggestions, or bug reports.

App Store:
https://apps.apple.com/jp/app/mtg-draft-companion/id6783238460?l=en-US

Still working on Android app, so hopefully it will be ready soon...

Thanks, and I hope it can be useful for some of your draft nights!

Trying to learn new sealed format, having trouble with this pool already

I'm not sure which colors to use for this one and I'm looking for any advice.

Thinking about green black or white something, but Mjolnir might be to good not to play. I'm a little stuck.

My 2nd trophy of MSH got me to Mythic, 7-2 Esper

Surprised by my rank immediately upon hitting Mythic 😅

First 7-0 this set and with a Boros deck

Didn’t even think this deck would perform but Loki was the MVP. Copying take up the shield in combat proved to be powerful. Didn’t get the chance to have Hawkeye synergize with photon blast but that would’ve been fun

MSH WU - Should I "Splash" Dr. Doom?

https://www.17lands.com/draft/e170ef6365cc423a97bb6b200a38dcd9/1/1

I have plenty of other cards I could run instead, but not 100% on what build I should be running. I want to try out Ms. Marvel, but I only have 4 triggers for her, so maybe I should run just run Futurist Forge, Drone, or Iron Lad.

Any other suggestions on build or how I should have drafted are welcome!

BREAD isn't outdated— most enfranchised players just outgrew it

I still think it's a valuable starting point for brand-new drafters, even if you move beyond it as you improve. It teaches the importance of removal and evasion in a chaotic environment, such as your first few drafts.

Video: https://youtu.be/boxqPXKJ6f8

Do you still recommend BREAD to beginners, or has something else replaced it for you?

Equipment Villain Draft 7-2

https://preview.redd.it/uwakawhvbaah1.png?width=1919&format=png&auto=webp&s=634d081e9f436095d40ae43b93f5ad86562b6d9d

Fun Stuff, first time actually using Ronin, has really nice interaction with the Stolen Stark Tech. (You can almost always do a 2 for 1) Also, first time actually using Whiplash for some decent life steal. Felt really smooth once I had some equipment going. (I think there should be at least three equipments to actually expect stuff from these cards, U.S.Agent being a must)

But honestly equipment didn't really do much, it was whether I could play Super-Skrull when opponent was out of removal or protect it somehow. Avengers: Under Siege is an insane bomb as well, this makes red splash worth it, but somehow I drafted two Super-Skrulls making red even better.

I am noticing that white and blue cards are being depleted quickly in the more recent runs, which sometimes justify going black as main color when I'm being passed crazy rares. But I still think that building red as main color is basically impossible in this set.

How did this deck trophy in diamond?

I feel like if I judge this by Strixhaven Standards, it feels so weak to me. Will take a while until I understand this set.

I feel like there are pretty much 0 synergies and I was actually furious for drafting this mess, being unfocused. And then it gets 7 wins <.< and my other deck which I was proud of goes to waste. I guess I just dodged the heavy hitters this time, right? Or is this weak of a deck actually above average somehow?

MSH Limited First week impressions.

First feelings about the format after having played around 20 drafts so far.

White is the best followed closely by Blue, Green is okay, Black mediocre and Red is afwul.

Most themes (heroes, villains, draw 2, +1+1, self-target, attack alone, artifacts, 2 creatures in graveyard, prowess) are not really worth pursuing. Just play the good cards and if you have a bit of the theme going on you can take some payoffs. But the best commons like [[Hero in training]], [[S.H.I.E.L.D. Deployment Drone]] and [[Trickster's Stratagem]] are always great but do help some themes.

The villains and artifact archetypes especially I find weak. Many of the cards that really care about it are very underpowered if you aren't running mostly villain/artifact. But most of the artifacts and villains are really underpowered and the good ones are wanted by everyone not running pure artifact and villain.
Overall i'd really stay out of red and black if possible. Some of the best stuff is splashable and highly picked too much so other players seem to be taking away your goodies and you have to be lucky to get a strong deck together.

White especially is very deep. Note that all commons except Kree commando's and Panther pounce are sitting above Lightning strike now on 17 lands (of course that doesn't mean they are better, just that red and white are massively under- and overperforming respectively).

As pretty much always the man-o-war variant [[Justice, Vance Astrovik]] and put 2nd of the top bounce spell [[Trickster's Stratagem]] are among best uncommons and commons. Connive is secretly very good in the format because it helps with so many synergies (+1+1, draw 2, filling the grave).

Overall I think you want to play a low curve because you're not running out of stuff to do fast. Between power-up abilities, decent draw spells, land activations and some solid equipment you often have lategame.

[[Avenger's tower]] especially deserves a shout-out I think because it's a great manafixer. The things you splash for like [[Jennifer Walters]], [[Monica Rambeau]], [[Tony Stark]] and [[Ka-Zar of the Savage Land]] are all single pip red/green so easy to splash. Some of the color heavy cards like [[Captain America, Super-Soldier]] and [[The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl]] are also cast easier with it. Picking up some duals, a land-cycler or two and Avenger's tower or Villainous Hideout makes splashing the bombs quite easy. The land-cyclers especially combine well with We Say Thee Nay.

Some of the worst trap cards are those that trigger of self-targeting like [[Colleen Wing, Street Samurai]]. I don't think you want to play many tricks and actually use some of the solid equipment like [[S.H.I.E.L.D. Spy Kit]] instead. There are just so many ways to get blown out with those self-targeting cards and their baselevel is really low.

[[S.H.I.E.L.D. Spy Kit]] and [[Rapid Rescue]] get my vote for most underrated cards in the set. The spy kit is a surprisingly solid equipment where the combination between pseudo viligance, scry and decent stat boost just give it enough to make it good. Also helps with tiny synergies as sacrifice an artifact or return something to hand or making sure you still have teamwork up.
Rapid rescue in the right deck is just a solid card selection spell. Suppose you run it along with 6 other non-permanents (easy in white/green/blue as most removal, tricks and card draw are actually enchantment/artifact/equipment) and your fizzle chance is only ~2% while it helps find your bombs and smooth out your land draws.

Finally most stupid card in the set has got to be [[The Sentry, Golden Guardian]]. It's not very good as often it just gets Webbed up or Frozen in Ice but it's stupid how it makes the game revolve around itself. Had it completely demolish me when playing something like Gruul and also instantly won against it with most others. I can't think of any worse card design for limited as it demotes the game to just 'do you have the right removal?'.

Overall imbalance of colors and most decks seemingly just being goodstuff instead of really going for one of the themes make me give this format a B. I like how many games go a decent length without going too long like SOS did but had hoped for more variety in archetypes.

Sealed Dilemma

Im looking for advice on which version of my sealed pool I should play. 17lands says azorius is dominant and i have good support at common in white and strong blue overall. But I think the Sultai Villains version is synergistically stronger and has better removal. Any advice from experienced sealed players?

Strixhaven Sealed Question

Hey Reddit! I'm participating in a sealed event of Secrets of Strixhaven at a friends place next week, and though I've played a ton of draft of that set on Arena, I've never done a sealed of it. This event also has a weird rule in that I can either bring 6 normal packs OR one of the 5 college-aligned prerelease packs. So, my question is: What's more powerful, 6 normal packs, or 5 packs and the bonus college-aligned one?

Marvel sealed limited

Hey guys!

It’s my first ever sealed attempt, and I have absolutely no idea how I should form my deck.

I would love for any kinds of tips, or maybe guide me with recommendations with a deck list or something.

Super new to the game, it hasn’t been a month yet, but I love every single minute of it, and regret that I didn’t start mtg sooner.

Thank you so much already!

Ps: last time I posted here I got like 5 wins, it was my first ever attempt on quick draft! https://www.reddit.com/r/mtglimited/s/tEU0cbW0nr

That time I couldn’t get any help until I was done so this time imma be waiting for yall responses.

Thank you very much again.

Edit: thank you guys for all the replies, I’m gonna be sitting on the deck creation process for a while, so if you see this post do not hesitate to add up whatever you may want!

My own insight: honestly, after reading all the cards and trying to categorize them into synergies first of all I’m like baffled with how many individually good cards Ive pulled from the packs.

I mean there’s some mean cards here that I’d love to play like that iron man card. Flying haste individually very nice finisher but can I actually spare having him if I also add that 3 mana vehicle?

I think white red and green looks the strongest.

I do have quite a lot of useful heroes but I’m worried if I can use them efficiently with that mythic white hero enchantment?

I do see a very fun combo deck using white and green +1/+1 mechanic, and the new power up mechanic also feeds into this, but I’ve realized that those power up cards are quite expensive right, so would that be efficient for my that to add those power up cards just bcs they got power up?

I mean most of those power ups are heroes too, so it looks like a win win, but I just feel like what I have formed out seems to be a bit too much. (I don’t know a way to share my current deck, but it floats around 34 cards WITHOUT lands, I know I need to cut a lot).

Soon im gonna @ you guys on a comment and invite you for discussion, and will ask you to actually help me craft and form my deck a bit more directly.

I understand a little bit about yall recommendations like use this and this color and splash this, but my problem is, I don’t know what cards to use from those color combinations, and how to efficiently splash a third color (never played with a 3 color deck before, but I’m willing to give it a shot).

Thanks again, and for the people who will see the post after my edit, I’d appreciate it if you can share me an example of what I can do, maybe a skeleton deck list or a complete one, just so I can understand my synergies a bit better.

Thank you for the final time, I didn’t expect to get so much attention and help already, I feel super welcomed to be a part of this community as a newcomer!
