@Synthsage:

I think having a short time for the draft is bad without having more information available right away. People like participating in events and hate feeling forced into it. I hate feeling rushed to get all the drafting I need in to get the cards I want for decks. Two weeks is not enough time, and it seems like a money grab to get more people paying the gem entry fee.

That is a very valid concern, and I’ll pass it along to the right people.

Per the calendar there are zero ranked drafts in February after the 14th. This can't be right...something's off.

I thought it was some kind of bug too, but it was confirmed to be real here: https://forums.mtgarena.com/forums/threads/63112/comments/400655
They are probably substituting it with something else, but I can't imagine what could be a replacement that isn't inferior. Only if it was pod drafts, which sounds impossible this early.

I am a bit surprised that there is no activity from Lexie or other staff for a week now.
No planned update either. Theros basic lands availability still not solved, no news, no new events in sight...

@foukas:

While Pioneer would be awesome, it can't possibly happen anytime soon. Even if they only code the relevant cards without new animations etc., they are just too many. Remember, every other week a new forgotten card rises from unplayability to a tier 1 deck. Who would have thought Inverter of Truth would be part of a tier 1 deck a month ago?

It’s ok that it would take a while. No one is upset about that. It would be nice however to have that actually be a goal. We don’t even know if the mixture of sets they are putting together are Pioneer legal. We could have Kamigawa mixed with Farexia mixed with Ahmonket. We have no idea what’s going on or where we are headed. I honestly wonder why they are forbidden to work towards Pioneer.

We're not forbidden to work towards Pioneer. Pioneer Set Remasters are in concept right now. Check out the ...

@DoctorKuhn:

SINCE you're here Lexie, Is there ANY news on Pioneer? Sucks that it's almost completely off the radar in terms of what Wizard's outlined for the year. I'm assuming it's not the case but I wanted to see if there's anything on the most popular format that would generate ridiculous amounts of revenue for wizards.

That is definitely still on our radar, it’s only been a couple months since we mentioned it last. It’s a long road to get to Pioneer. Give it time. :slight_smile:

If a post hasn't gotten a reply, it's probably due to one of these things:

• What I have to say doesn't make anything better or add to the conversation in any way. I used to jump in on shuffler threads, but did that help? Did it change anyone's mind? Did it make that person feel better? Nope.
• What players are asking or talking about is something that I actually can't discuss. For example, I can't tell you about new things if we haven't announced said thing.
• The post isn't actual constructive feedback, it's hostile or trolling. Note that this is against the Code of Conduct. There is never a need to insult each other, employees, be rude about things, etc. Being nice on the internet, y'all.

@Drecon:

So... business as usual is what you're saying?

Exactly this. As kind as Lexie is when she has an appearance, the big rants and complaints of the community have never been adressed here.


To a certain degree I understand this - going into detail with this community would be like opening pandora's box for them :P.


On the other hand it's dissapointing from our point of view - there are topics going around since beta which aren't getting a single comment for months ...

1. This the bundle, and those individual drops, are no longer available for purchase.
2. If you wanted only some of the cards, you could buy a drop individually. If you want none of them, you didn't have to buy any.
3. They were alternate art cards that some people, perhaps not you, want. I bought OMG Kitties to go in my Arahbo Commander deck. LOOK AT HOW CUTE IT IS.

The Secret Lair Bundle and seven drops within that bundle are no longer available for purchase (as a bundle or individually). They were each sold in a 24 hour window that has already ended. That's why those say "SALE ENDED! No Longer Available" on the store front.

Support definitely answers back, if you're submitting a ticket. Please double check your spam folder. You probably got an email saying "reply back if your problem isn't fixed". Submitting multiple tickets doesn't help, and sometimes it takes a little bit for them to respond because they answer tickets in order received.

@Nectaria Coutayar#92103:

I still don't understand what is so terrible about the fact that people who like MTG(A) but are not good at building themselves use a deck they found on the internet (it's there for everyone).

Personally I get bored to play against the same decks for 2-3 months. Which is the result from netdecking.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with building a deck that you find on the internet, and odds are whatever deck you think you've made from scratch probably exists on the internet somewhere as well. You are seeing those "same decks" because they're GOOD decks. People want to win. There are deck synergies that are better than jank, and people are going to play them. I played jank that I made on stream once, and people actually complained because it wasn't a "good" deck!

Some people don't like jamming ho...

Then reply back and say that your issue was not resolved, please. Perhaps they pushed a fix and left it at that. Hopefully that’s the case. If it isn’t fixed, send me a DM with your username# that you gave them, and I’ll ask support about your ticket.

It did just get fixed, thank you.
