![]() Not only will you learn the game, but you'll also get a feel as to how different colors and color combinations play. My overall advice: borrow decks from your friends in whatever format you chose. If they are more casual, then commander is the way to go. If your friends are into the competitive standard scene, then I would focus on standard. I think this really depends on the type of group you have to play with. I swear I suffer from withdrawal in between rounds :( I think the last time I went to anything that was 1v1 was Aether Revolt Prerelease. On a personal note, I've always, despite my best efforts, found 1 versus 1 scenarios insanely boring to play, and then to wait for another match to start up is torture for me. You can also take more time learning the ins and outs of Commander. This also means you can keep building a deck you love over a long period of time and stretch every dollar. It is also an eternal format, which means that cards don't suddenly become unusable outside of a very limited banned list of cards. However, Commander also allows you to build within a budget as well if you don't have the money for the latest and greatest. ![]() This would likely be the best place to start.Ī Commander deck is usually far and away more expensive than a Standard deck by any stretch when you include everything in a "finished" deck. This is basically building what you want in a deck within the rules and just having fun with what you have. You can counter doing Standard by playing Casual 60 card decks, often referred to as "Kitchen Table Magic". This also changes over time, so the expensive cards you buy today may not be worth much when they rotate out. You could also try some brews or deck builds you come up with on your own or with help, but when people want to play Standard, it is usually taken to mean a more competitive experience, which you would have to buy certain cards for. My basis for this, even if it is more complicated than Standard, is money over time.īeing new to Standard means buying a deck and being competitive for tournaments. Being as new as you are, it might be better to start with Commander. It really depends on the experience you might want. then everyone is having more fun :) of course then they have it internalized that im a threat and in 3 or 4 player games im going to lose a lot more by being targetyed lol ![]() the goal is to get weaker players to be capable of beating me. a lot of the time the skill difference is such that i can take a precon out of the box and beat a group that already knows I'm a threat. I'm big into reviewing specific plays to help create a more enjoyable play experience for everyone and so that people dont just keep running into a wall that is 18 years of experience playing the game, several years more competitively, over and over and not understanding what went wrong. if they make a move that works out poorly I'll explain on the spot what they could have done differently given the information avaioable to me without hand knowledge. When i play with a newer/weaker player i like to explain different things as appropriate. I would lean more toward commander because you can pick up a reasonable and playable deck and get started right from there and other players tend to have varying power levels of deck so you can still find a reasonable game. casual 60 is a very hard thing to find games with unless you have a preexisting group. I would only agree with that if he has a playgroup of a similar play level or with reasonable casual level decks. r/magicTCG is not produced, endorsed, supported by, or affiliated with Wizards of the Coast.
