they like had this idea in the back of their minds and they were like well let's we're doing this flesh and blood thing let's see if anyone shows up that was a success and they were like all right let's do magic like let's announce the date let's do it let's get it going so i wouldn't be surprised if they're still figuring out the artists and cosplayers and that end of stuff but i would expect that they will be coming well any other thoughts on tournament stuff before we talk a little bit about standard our new standard format all right let's let's talk some standards so we have new standard in this red midnight standard we're what like a couple of weeks into the format digitally and i've really enjoyed playing the format so let's start there let's start with an easy one have you enjoyed playing standard so far post rotation i will say yes i've had the time of my life playing the standard but that's because i haven't had to seen an eldrine card so i i i got like ran over by werewolves and i was like you know what that's great it is it is it is kind of true like you get that beat down and at least you're not getting you know bone crusher going in it or like emergent ultimatum so it kind of feels okay even if you're like getting crushed just as hard by some doing stuff so i i wonder though like do you think that means this standard is good or is does it just mean that last standard was so bad that any standard looks good compared to it i that's the thing i'm trying to like figure out for myself right because obviously my view on this standard is definitely tinted under the light of like oh rotation it can't be worse than last two years right so so like not having to deal with the ocos and all of that stuff and what felt like the longest standard life i've ever played through um yeah like at the same time like i think there are cool things that are happening in this standard format uh and as i and it feels like i i love the fact that we've returned to like i guess return to an older more familiar form of power levels when it comes to magic like if i if the biggest concern i have is like some kind of aggro deck i think that's a good thing or like like that's that's that's why i'm like so pumped on this format like getting stomped by werewolves getting stomped by mono green yes i hate green and i hate ranger class and escas chariot but at the same time is it that bad like is that a bad thing i mean esca's chariot is like an easier to kill gideon um and and i mean like not to say that it's a weak card but like yeah like this format has shaped out to be uh shaped up to be well fun so i mean i have i'll go ahead richard have you played have you played standard yeah so i i've executed my plan of just playing on moto uh it's actually worked out pretty well i'm actually shocked at how fast the matches fire off um but all i see is rangers
