I've been playing more and more magic recently, and have been even maintaining both a modern deck (izzet murktide sorry) and a pioneer deck (arclight Phoenix though it's not suuuuper strong rn) I don't really play commander because unfortunately none of my friends IRL actually play with me!

Was just curious if anyone else had been doing anything in MTG recently, or had any thoughts on the new cards coming in the Lord of the Rings set. Personally, as someone who doesn't play commander, it doesn't seem super impactful on Modern, though I'm hardly an expert on card evaluation so maybe someone else could (though there's a counter on creatures with MV under 2 for just one blue so maybe that'll be worth picking up)

Mostly standard on arena. No local friends who play and a five year old kid at home means I don't have time to go to a local store for FNM.

Love the game though. ๐Ÿ˜

You know I actually have been playing arena, though I've been playing historic! Standard was a pain to keep up on in a digital format like that

I basical do the quick drafts for cards, and i pay for untapped.gg so i can get card stats for decks.

I don't really like limited ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ. It's more that I enjoy non rotating formats more, I think.
