#MTGA COUNTER 1 SPELL OPONENT CONCEDE HOW TO#

Mill was one of those quirky things that you never really ran into much and when you did it was kinda fun for both sides due to it being a novelty. However, to be fair the paper game has also felt cheapened due to secret lair and everything having a 'collectible' variant, but I digress. It feels like MTGA as a whole has cheapened the game by pushing for single match games and designing sets which feel like they were made for digital while paper was an afterthought.

So the question is how to deal with the people who are running mill decks that nobody wants to play against and ruining the game for the 95% of people who actually want to play with the cards they've spent good money on, without ruining a perfectly serviceable mechanic for the people who just want an occasional trick up their sleeve for when their opponent who is leading the commander game just scryed 2, top-decked them both, and has an evil look on their face.Īgreed. Because mill players are the worst kind of players - most of them are straight up griefers who don't even care if their decks can win or not (because while they're unfortunately strong in the current meta, in most metas, they *haven't* been particularly competitive), what they enjoy are the fact that mill decks upset opponents - but the mill mechanic itself is useful when played in a reasonable way. I think the issue we'd run into is that mill itself isn't a degenerate *mechanic*, it's a degenerate *deck archetype*, and that get a lot harder to ban. I would appreciate greatly, if you consider narrowing this effect to a minimum (or to something that only affects your own deck like some cards do as a price for a spell) or - that would be my favorite: kick it out entirely.

So meanwhile when I realize someone chooses this play-style I give up immediately (no wonder some people have decks with 200 cards. Or to quote a famous saying: It's like playing chess with a dove. But some players use it as their only strategy to quickly reduce a deck to Zero. In general I avoid to choose these kind of cards for my own deck. In that sense I find the 'Milling Cards' function deeply frustrating and annoying. But neither do I mind losing against a strong, but interesting, original, witty foe/deck either. I love playing Magic, and of course I love to win like everyone else. (Before I was recommended this forum I wrote the following to the company.
