    Does eternal have a battle of wits equivalent?

    no, but there is a bunch of Time cards in this set built around milling yourself, taking advantage of that, and then shuffling your deck back in, so that seems like the sort of gooftacular weirdness you like

    I'm still waiting for Gwent to go on Steam so I don't need to have a whole separate client for one game

    I'm probably gonna be waiting a while, huh

    There is 0 chance that Gog ever lets you play Gwent on something other than their digital storefront

    and then your opponent plays steward of the past and you hover over concede for about 10 seconds while "arms of the angels" starts playing

    I think Plague was a super underrated card tbh

    Not only does it slam dunk rally decks it perma-kills dawnwalkers!

    Plague was pretty good in Draft, but in constructed there are too many decks it's a borderline-dead draw against where you'd really rather have more removal in those slots.

    That makes a good deal of sense as well.

    position on a tier list is not the same thing as prevalence on the ladder

    i have seen an extremely limited amount of stewards

    i'm sorry that this does not line up with your experiences or what you have read on the internet

    While it's not as egregious or gross as Shadowverse can be, it's funny that a bunch of people only just realized Eternal is, well, "pandering" with its art as well. Several streamers did a double take at Rakano Sheriff and I'm like "y'all this is not the first time they've done this!"

    Apparently there's a new Shadowverse expansion, introducing rotation as well as an entire new faction of cards.

    sooo i just disenchanted all of my year of the kraken cards to fund a quick hall-of-fame turnover

    ...then i realised i have no gold saved up, and no decks now

    maybe this is the end for me and hearthstone? i just played my first game in months, a tavern brawl. it was ok.

    Oh, that's where they put the thread.

    For those looking forward to the digital LOTR LCG adaption, they announced how the Early Access Founder's Packs were going to work. No specific date yet, although they mentioned in the Twitch streams that it probably wouldn't be going live this month.

    And also a work-in-progress preview of the cards in the Core Set.

    Also information about Artifact is starting to come out, since Valve had a big event for the press to play and talk about it.

    PCGamer's article on it.

    The big surprise is that it's a Richard Garfield game, and he's been working with Valve on it since 2014.

    It sounds a bit crazy... and pretty awesome?

    I enjoy that it's not f2p but you also don't get all the cards. Back up that dump truck into the Valve money pit

    I'm pretty cold on it, personally. I think inantp put a pretty fine point on it in the steam thread in saying that it's more or less entirely an attempt to reproduce the magic aftermarket on steam's ecosystem. It'll likely be a well-made game but I don't think that's gonna be enough to justify the buy-in for me.

    It's so gross! They're not only gonna get paid when ppl buy packs or whatever but also when they buy singles from each other on the back end.

    There is a version of this where handling the secondary market allows more freedom from the common-uncommon-rare-mythic rare power structure. Wizards pushes power into rares and mythics because at the end of the day their only income source is selling the pack. If you don't have that limitation you can, theoretically, have some more consumer-friendly aspects in the pack.

    However, the company Valve is and the way they have monetized the steam marketplace do not make me presume that they are a consumer-benevolent company.

    Richard Garfield being on it is a strong sell for me. Wasn't super interested prior.

    I think it's really funny to me how often people say "Richard Garfield, inventor of Magic!" and not "Richard Garfield, inventor of failed digital TCG Solforge"

    Didn't Solforge fail more out of a marketing failure than a game design one?

    Yeah but that's only one data point and literally nobody else played it.

    An artist contracted to provide art for Shadowverse straight-up stole art from a Magic card:

    SolForge was fun but a real mess release and dev wise.

    Early Magic was a mess but he also invented the whole genre so who the hell can blame him? He's also been involved in some recent Magic sets that were very good.

    Also Netrunner is the actual best card game ever made.

    King of Tokyo is pretty good too.

    Oh and RoboRally.

    Yo

    So due to a “laundry incident” I had to get a new phone. Since I was now off my ancient iPhone 5, I decided to pick up Eternal for my phone to fill my crippling MTG addiction when I’m not at the shop or on mtgo.

    This is pretty great! I tried Hearthstone a while back and it really never clicked for me but this is much more my speed (unsurprisingly, since a bunch of magic pros work on it). And the FTP model is pretty generous!

    I’m still early on (Mastered Gauntlet and am now working on Forge - at Gold now - while dipping my toes into VS modes for quests), but I already have a pretty decent card pool and enough shards (7k) that I figure by the time I’m done with Forge, I could finish up the leavings for one of those budget Rakano Warcry decks. Heck I could build it now (only would cost me 2500 shards), but figure I’ll wait until I’m out of gold for Forge/Draft.

    Point is, I’m having a blast

    Eternal is adding Sealed Leagues, which I think is the first time that the modern generation of digital card games has done Sealed
