Can we slate some other stuff too? Like, how no other player is tougher to beat than MTGO's shuffling dynamic. I have just now played some well constructed decks, mulliganed 2 to 3 times, and have had to battle my own deck for upto four or five turns with card draw, before I can start concentrating on my opponent. Who, I thought was an opponent but is not, because all along MTGO is mainly my opponent...
Also, why the ***k are scrying spells and card drawing spells 'instants'?
The evolution of everything, even more-so when money is considered, is to descend down into the foul and treacherous gutter! All you've become and will become, are pawns fishing and fending in that gutter...
Who thinks UW? is overpowered? I do...it's no wonder everyone is splashing counter-spells! They do nothing, just sitting there counting their little counter-spells, sweating their balls maybe if they don't have enough (but they always have enough, don't they? But then, only they know that!), scrying (which basically is an analogy for a handkerchief to wipe the sweat away), thinking of flashing something in or not flashing something in, leaving land up (is it enough?), making sure (with a damp hanky), never thinking much about a wincon (until September rolls round, maybe), wait, Gyruda maybe coming! I guess, the only consolation to it all is to make a cup of tea while they think about what they're seeing and counter-spelling your deck, I mean spell.
Then, you come back thinking things may have moved on a bit? They haven't, you then fall into a coma and tea spills all over your lap...
I have been playing Magic all my life, since 3rd edition and I have never seen such an expansion set before, like in Ikoria that literally breaks Standard, with it's certain broken and busted companions and very obvious and boring 'shells'. A lot of these customary decks in standard just run on rails and are too powerful. So much so, that if your not running these archetypal decks yourself, then your not winning. This leaves a lot to be considered by way of creativity and originality in brewing alternatives. Standard seems like it's dysfunctional, dead and buried with this set already...
