Hey all, I'm not NEW to magic but for all purposes lets consider me 100% ignorant to mtga.

I recently have been playing a lot and bought some packs, however I feel a bit unsatisfied with my deck and want to try more, as well as enjoy making decks for fun.

I am looking to do a big spend of 100 for packs and was wondering if I could get advice. Is there a certain spend that is best? Should I full invest into the NEWEST pack in order for longevity? or split the amount to what I see is in a lot of decks.

I also don't see how often packs are rotated out and in. I know they just added the Lair series but it doesnt say how often packs drop, and when series are rotated out or how many are done each rotation.

As for a final noob question can anyone suggest a good youtuber(twitch) to learn to be a better player? I suck at drafts and serious deck building and I wanna fix that. I don't mean like, try hard serious but when I make decks for fun I wanna know what makes a card good, and how to know what to include in that deck.

PS. I used to love playing white weenie and reanimator, so if you know decks similar that are run in standard OR historic let me know!

tldr: How often are packs released, and pulled from standard. What packs should I buy. Who should I watch to improve?

Edit: Am I really getting disliked for asking questions?

Is this like a major gate keeping sub?

Hello yugo, welcome to the Arena!

I like to watch u/LegenVD on YouTube. He really talks through his thought process and it's very helpful for Limited or Constructed. https://www.youtube.com/user/LegenVD
