I’m primarily a paper edh player, but I’ve been dabbling in arena lately. There’s so many different formats, it’s hard to know where to start and I don’t want to waste my wild cards on a standard deck only to realize I like historic or brawl more.
So my question is what formats do you all play in MTGA and why?
You must log in or register to comment.
Mostly standard, since I don’t like drafting to much. And due to the not rotation I finally have a solid land base to try a lot of different stuff.
I enjoy Explorer lately although the meta is very stale some days.
Otherwise Historic Brawl is fun. When I feel particularly casual I just skip opponents on there if I stare down the 6th Atraxa pile in a row.
Also, for me Explorer feels nicer than Historic lately due to the digital only mechanics taking hold in the meta. Just not my favourite style of play.
Same, I enjoy Explorer, I cannot stand the digital mechanics. Greasefang decks are almost as bad though.
Yeah i aggressively sideboard for greasefang.
Genrally the meta-whoring is pretty rough, especially on low ranks.
I just wanna sling my colorless ramp and see how far i can push it
I mostly play Historic on there, because it lets me build with (almost) all the cards. But if I face three Elfball decks in a row, I’ll throw in a couple rounds of Standard or Explorer.
