Yeah, I'm using the default decks and I seem to come up against pretty strong decks fairly regularly I feel. I know it's not what they want but I wish you could have games just against the default decks, they're fun enough for me at least. Whereas once you start getting into more competitive decks they're extremely not good.
Not sure how that would upset their precious ranking system. I suppose some sort of format could exist limited only to the preconstructed decks.
They would probably have to give out those precons. I believe they're using new pre-cons along with the new tutorial system and since people like me can't redo the new tutorials on existing accounts, we don't get the new decks.
Or maybe they can give you precon decks to choose from in that kind of format but you don't get to keep the cards. I dunno. It's an interesting idea but I can almost guarantee WotC won't implement such a thing.
I guess you can use the new trainer mode they have. But the thing is so junk, I'm not even sure if it's really worth it. For me, at least, the A.I. seems to intentionally make worse plays as your life point drops down. I was fooling around with it because I wanted to see if the hand shaping still happens. We were both 1:1 on creatures but the bot had, IIRC, a trampler. All it needed to do was swing and win but it kept holding back for about ten turns until I drew what I needed. WTH?
It's not about the ranking system, it's that if there is a mode where you just play with the decks then people aren't spending money on packs, which is what they want. It's a shame though, I'm finding it fun enough just with the default as I said, but getting blown out at times by people playing entirely too good to compete (relative to default Selesnya Enchantment deck) is kind of disappointing.
And the AI is useless. It's fun if I feel like beating up on something that can't fight back, but it's way too defensive. Unless you have an empty field it won't take a chance and attack.
