Checking mechanics with training ground
Hi! Me and my friends who is playing arena and paper Magic always struggling when we need to ensure about some mechanic in the game. The Arena offers opportunities to experience different decks and mechanics, but through a rather thorny path. I mean when you want to check some mechanic you need to buy some cards for jokers, then you need to build up your deck, then you need to go fight with Sparky and then you need to wait your card or combination of cards which always easily can be ruined by Sparky, or Sparky starts to "Hmmm" permanently. Arena is perfect for check any mechanic in the game, but you should allow players to check it for free and with comfort. Create training ground, where you can easily choose the right cards and recreate the situation yourself without necessary to wait the right cards and loosing (or winning) to Sparky. I think Arena has more potential than it has now. Incept this and Arena will be must have for every Magic players.

I see your point. But in paper version you also need to buy cards or share someones deck. There should be option to play with friends deck against some your deck. But trust me with time you will have a ton of cards, especially if you play events (best result with 58,8%+ winrate). You can also use some stream, for example discords and play with "open hands", you say yourfriend what he do, and he say what you do. Skill of rating decks seen in web will come with time. Also some old "mistakes" gives you better pool of options in future. Best usage for wildcards are lands becouse they are used in many different decks.
