Difference being, even bad planeswalkers are better than most mid-range non-planeswalkers.

In limited?

[bv310]

In general. Most mid-level cards (I mean middle-of-the-road, average) are worse then the bad walkers (Chandra Ablaze, looking at you here.)

[Thestatusquo]

I agree with bv here. The reason is card advantage. Part of the reason planeswalkers are good is because they do something good and then stay in play. Its a 0 for something. Even bad planeswalkers have this quality.

[bv310]

Even Nissa and Tibalt filter you a card, and they're generally pretty underwhelming as walkers.

[Untrod Tripod]

also planeswalkers almost always add another layer to your opponent's wincon and don't add one to yours. that's pretty dadgum powerful

Me and UT doing it up. As you can see my deck is the nuts.

[Thestatusquo]

Match one I won game 1 and 3 esily because my deck was clearly better, but this shows you how this format plays out sometimes. Game 2 he is at 1 life, I'm going to be able to swing for lethal. He rips banishing stroke off the top then he rips spirit away off the top then he rips entreat the angels off the top. LOL. This format.

[Thestatusquo]

Me and UT in the finals. We're gunna split and play it out for funsies.

[Untrod Tripod]

I got SO MANY lucky draws that tourney

it was ridiculous

[Thestatusquo]

UT takes it down. Fun match in the finals. My deck was better all around, but his deck had the removal and the bombs, so it was a fun match.

[Untrod Tripod]

I really didn't have THAT much removal, I just always drew it exactly when I needed it

[Thestatusquo]

heh, I hear thats just as good!

[Starbuck]

Not sure if this is the place to ask, but does anyone play the XBL MTG games?

[bv310]

I have the new one on Steam, but I haven't fired it up yet. Enjoyed the 2012 edition, so high hopes.

I've got all 3 on XBL.

I'm reviewing 2013 for the site that I write for.

[bv310]

Better or worse than 2012 so far? I like the manual land tapping in concept.

I like it, although, I don't find it as challenging as the other two. In my first 4 1/2 hours of gameplay, I unlocked 10 achievements. Planechase is pretty cool, but very time consuming. I've been flying through the campaign.

You can also get all 3 online achievements by winning one game of Two-Headed Giant.

[bv310]

Well that's disappointing. I enjoyed the difficulty leap in the puzzles between Duels and 2012.

Won another 8-4 tonight to officially raise my rating on mtgo over 1700 for the first time since I started drafting online a couple months ago. I'm super stoked about that.

Also, I am kinda in the process of going infinite. I've done 10 drafts in the last week or so and haven't paid for a damn one of them, and I still have 12 packs and 8 tix chillin' in my account.

[AGar]

Shit, nice. Wish I wasn't terribad at drafting :/
