Hello,
I'm writing to Daybreak about ongoing concerns around the MTGO Treasure Chests, their role in the MTGO economy / prizing system, and their recent decline in value. I'm concerned that the large decline in Treasure Chest value is a result of changes coming from Daybreak's management of the...
This is a grab bag of ideas for improvements to MTGO's trading system. I have heard Daybreak address the MTGO economy in interviews. My impression is that most of the focus right now is around card availability. While that's great and important, I think it ignores a lot of things about MTGO's...
Perhaps the reward shouldn't be monetary. The problem with prizes for things like this is that kind of rewards time spent over great play. Obviously great play is required as well, but I think in particular a monetary reward for this would incentivize unhealthy behavior like 24 hour streams or...
In short, I want something comparable to the current "Yield Until Next End Step" but I want to be given priority back if my opponent puts a spell (or possibly an ability) on the stack.
In my opinion, this is the most common workflow for control decks or for any decks that operate at instant...
Foils on MTGO are generally worth less and are less desirable than their non-foil counterparts. In my opinion, this is because the foil effect on MTGO has never been that great. MTGO foiling basically washes out the art and borders on the card. All MTGO foils look the same--they look as if...
Cards like Bazaar of Baghdad and Lion's Eye Diamond let players discard multiple cards from hand at once. As far as I can tell, there is no way to control the order of how the cards appear in your graveyard. From testing it seems the order is either completely random or that it's based on...
MTGO has a maximum trade size of 400 objects at a time. This limit may have made sense in the 2000s when MTGO was created, but now that limit is way too restrictive.
It creates tons of inefficiencies in the economy:
1) It means you can only send 400 event tickets at a time. Some cards, like...
I know the transition to daybreak games is very new so there may not be capacity to make a lot of changes.
What is the best way to propose changes for MTGO to daybreak games?
Should we use this forum? The MTGO subreddit?
This tutorial from MTGGoldfish is good:
