So what are the benefits of a clan in MTGO? Any?

Shadow1psc · Post Post #776 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 9:07 am

On that note, now I'm a little confused about what I do. Like, if I wanted to grab all commons from innistrad x4, is there a quick and easy way to bring this up?

ISO · Post Post #777 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 9:17 am

Agar, the benefits of clans are pretty much what we already do to a small extent: Card sharing, strategy talk, socialization. That sort of thing. It might be cool to do, but none of us really plays constructed, so the card sharing thing isnt a big deal.

Ah ok. Wasn't sure.

I'm getting back into it. Mostly Limited, though I do have 4 Snapcasters, which aren't worth but 5 tix online.

We all mostly do drafting so you'll be right at home with Limited.

12-6 queues for Draft for the next week.

So I see how the optimizer works, handy stuff, but is there an easier way now to mass add cards to my cart? From what it looks like, I told it to list all commons from Innistrad, but then I still have to type that I want 4 from x vendor, hit add to cart, then it auto takes me to my cart where I have to click continue shopping, scroll back to where I was, repeat. With only 12 commons I'm also already at $5, still seems like an ebay set is the way to go...

For those types of sets (C/UC) you may be right to go the ebay route. The Optimizer works best with fluctuating mid-high cost cards, or certain specific cards (like Whipflares, etc).

I believe so.

Does it?

5tix + 3 packs?

fuck that

Untrod Tripod · Post Post #789 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 3:02 pm

First place gets 2 QP and second place gets 1, in addition to the 12-6

pretty sure that's good value

bv310 · Post Post #790 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 3:30 pm

Yeah, I can deal with a few extra tix for the chance to freeroll myself for four normal drafts.

Untrod Tripod · Post Post #791 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 3:34 pm

well it's good value if, unlike me, you can actually win shit

<3 UT.

AGar · Post Post #793 (ISO) » Wed Jun 27, 2012 5:33 pm

You're basically paying an extra pack in to possibly win 50% more packs back.

I'd say it's a good deal.

AGar · Post Post #794 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 6:42 am

Fired up for an 8-4. Gonna be really frustrated if I don't do decently with this deck

ISO · Post Post #795 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 10:17 am

I mean, youre playing a lot of crappy cards. Midnight dualist, commanders authority, banners raised. Vigilante justice is underwelming imo and goldnight redeemer doesnt seem to fit into your deck that well.

Your curve isnt even that aggressive, as you only have 3 2 drops. I would be surprised if this deck won.

Shadow1psc · Post Post #796 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 10:34 am

I don't get all the midnight duelist hate. I mean, obviously it's a dredge only card, but if you pick it up and you're running r/w, what makes it such an awful one drop? I'm not talking in an instance where you get to pick up Stonewrights, but as filler it seems ok (definitely not something to shoot for as a 3-of). Banners raised is definitely crap though... If you were just stretching to fill in a deck after getting a lot of pack 1 cathars/revolts, I could see how that came about.

ISO · Post Post #797 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 10:38 am

Its an ok 23rd card, but thats all it is. You're never happy to have to play them, and you're certainly miserable to play 3. It's just not a high impact card, ever.

Shadow1psc · Post Post #798 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 10:41 am

The more I look at AGar's list there makes me think he did a lot of early red drafting and the white wasn't exactly trickling down. I'd be interested in hearing the order in which you picked those cards up.

AGar · Post Post #799 (ISO) » Thu Jun 28, 2012 11:12 am

I ended up doing shit, yeah.

Thought I was doing well, but yeah, bad drafting. Oh well, Draft 2 also ended up in RW and bombed out again, but managed to snag a Tamiyo in Pack 2 to just pay for the draft back and then some (17 tix).
