I think it would actually be a really good idea to normalize using an 80-90 minute timer for all cEDH games. I'm not even talking about strictly tournament practice or w/e, I also mean for casual games and even content too.
Winning in a reasonable amount of time is a key skill in cEDH (and Magic!)
Amazing work @rachelweeks.bsky.social !!!!
The Bracket image leaves a lot of the nuance (from the article) about player intent out of the conversation. I, with input from the available members of the CFP, reworked the image to include it.
Ask yourself, "What is the intent of this deck? What kind of experience am I looking for?"
I always want to surprise my wife with gifts but I'm a terrible secret keeper and she is an amazing guesser, so we always end up spoiling the surprise hahah
Appreciated!!! You are amazing as well my good sir!!
Hopefully we can meet in person some day!
Platforms won't be the ultimate judge of a deck bracket. The intent and desired experience of both the deck and the player is what will ultimately say what a Bracket is.
Deckbuilding restrictions exist to guarantee the desired experience of such bracket will be met.
We're seeing a large amount of people taking our estimates to be gospel about their deck's power level. We wanted to speak on this and show you what we're doing to try to help.
