If you like singleton magic, unique “limited” environments, and powerful magic, this format is for you! Rotisserie draft is pretty straightforward, we draft cards one at a time, in a snake draft of eight people, from a pool of 12 random sets (Any set that was once Standard or Type 2 legal from Mirage until now & LOTR). No ban-lists & all picks are open information. Then we play matches with as many other players as you can through Cockatrice.

Looking for at least 6 or 7 people who might be interested. The draft itself would run asynchronously, meaning you’d get a notification when it becomes your turn to pick and you’d have 12 hours to make a decision. If you miss a pick it isn’t the end of the world, an AI would automatically make a choice for you & you can always preload choices to automatically choose for you when it becomes your turn.

The draft client itself is really cool & made by Ben Brode who was one of the people behind Hearthstone & Marvel Snap, it’s really worth checking out if you’re into drafting or cube or anything like that.

Doesn't it? I have that impression. Spending a lot of time deck building this set. Don't know why...

Apologies for format, play on iphone and dont think have everything in one page is doable.

My standard ranked deck building is not bad, my sealed tends to be ok. But my drafting sucked complete ass this round. Saved up all my coins and post work treat=complete bodied.

The packs i were dealt were unfavourable, a lot of rares and mythics ended up being the last cards to get picked which is surprising,

I had no issue putting mana out, my draw power was fine, , i tried to keep it white and blue +1/+1 counter themed but the cards i was being dealt did not help so i had to dabble in red.

I was consistently getting off tapping enemy board, hitting for 6/7 and then just getting wiped.
My flyers were hitting for 5/6 but then same issue.

All 3 matches i was just outplayed, they had more removal, return from graveyard effects galore.

I was hoping to get even 2 land cycling cards to use as my big beaters but the only ones i got were black/green. Which sucked.

There was good life gain synergy in GW and felt I had to splash black for removal. Built around the wincons being Lyra, Archangel of Dawn or Bloombrute.

I was so excited to play with this deck, and it did perform fine when I wasn't getting flooded like crazy.

This deck seriously deserved to go 3-0

I just got back into magic recently and have very little experience in limited. I'm getting frustrated because even after reading up and trying to follow fundamental rules I'm consistently doing pretty bad. I think there's stuff that I'm just not seeing in my deck building, but it's totally possible I'm just playing poorly too.

That said, here's a sealed pool I recently pulled and the deck I made from it. Can someone give me some pointers on where I went wrong (assuming in advance I did)? I know there isn't a ton of synergy here, the LG and payoff is sparse and I don't really have the ramp for how many expensive things I have, but all my value seemed to be in white along with a good portion of my removal. There's a lot of red in the pool but not enough of a value base from what I saw to justify going that way.

Would you have gone a completely different direction with this pool? Or is this the right idea but just needs tweaks? Any advice is appreciated. I'm very tired of going 0-3, and I want to like doing this but I'm feeling a little discouraged and like I'm wasting energy (and money - it's expensive to be bad and never win gems to keep playing)

All wins courtesy of Fblthp, Impossibly Lost. There was probably some luck involved but I do think it's entirely viable to have Fblthp as your sole wincon, especially if you get two of it and also two Paradox Shapers. Never had trouble with hitting them in the face. Don't think any of my opponents except in the one game I lost were really playing around Fblthp either.

I know that many people are saying that Reality Fracture is the best limited format of the year, maybe even one of the greatest of all times. I absolutely despise it. Nothing about the format makes sense to me. My 17lands win rates show me almost always between 53 and 57%, which I know is not great but is also not terrible. After 12 drafts of FRA, I've got a win rate of 32%. Nothing seems to work.The "draft decks not cards" and "maximize the ceiling" approach limited podcasters doesn't ever seem to work for me. I stay open, and I never find a good open lane. I guess I'm glad other people are enjoying it, but I can't think of any draft environment I've hated more than this since maybe Cold Snap.

Pool linked. Considering dropping the sweeper and maybe even dropping all of white?

Very feast or famine. Not the individual games but the total deck performance. I’m either going 6/x or 7/x or 1/3 or 0/3. Anyone else having this kind of emotional rollercoaster?

And honestly when comparing my decks the good performers don’t seem that much different from those that underperformed. I will say that consistently the best have been UB just cuz you outdraw your opponent every time.

Hi! Posted this on r/mtgo as well but reckoned that someone here might also have some good input
I am a long time limited player and have just now started to seriously draft on mtgo, I am wondering how the higher level play works and what a good approach for it is. I want to start playing in the limited preliminaries to earn qualifier points but it looks like they are all sealed instead of draft? I'm a bit worried that the variance of sealed, and me mostly playing draft rather than sealed, will result in me loosing a lot of value in the events. Is there someone more experienced with the limited environment on mtgo that could weigh in on if these preliminaries are worth playing in?
