Please make a better format
This is a personal opinion, and I don't expect many people to agree with me. Just giving my own feedback.
I really like playing magic in arena but recently the experience has been terrible for me. I log in on impulse and then remember that there's no one format that I can be comfortable in right now.
I used to be a historic-only player, getting to mythic every season, but I must say, historic anthologies and jumpstart have been really ruining historic for me. The format keeps getting warped, and the power creep is real enough. First Ulamog and Unburial Rites, then Muxus, then Mizzix's Mastery and Faithless Looting. You're expected to win by turn 3 or 4, so I can't really play any 4-drops unless I'm a control deck that's already too far ahead.
But now, with historic horizons, I personally absolutely hate the online-only mechanics, and I refuse to play in a format that has "Perpetual" in it.
Standard is just too expensive for me. As everyone knows, it rotates far too quickly for the casual player to keep up without spending more than they'd like. Also Test of Talents still exists there. It's absolutely disgusting that I have to not only get countered, an already **** experience, but also reveal literally every card I have. That is not fair, and it's not fun to be on the receiving side. It ruins my effing day.
Historic was my home, and now it's ruined. Standard will never be my home.
- I suggest an additional format that is just historic, but without any jumpstart.
- Ban Test of Talents and stop making cards that ruin people's day. Losing can be fun too, but not like that.
Thank you for the attention.
