Parallax Demon said:Riconoclast said:Nice, hopefully it has something a bit more long-term. I'd like something like "Win 500 matches in singleplayer and online via sealed deck play" and "Play 1000 matches in sealed". As much as the game is sometimes a glorified marketing exercise I have no plans to go back to the physical version.
Even though I love the game (also play it IRL), winning 500 matches online is a really no go. 90% of the time people who are about to lose, quit and are replaced by an IA.
When I know I'm done, I just don't block or use any spell to prolong the game. From my own experience I can say that I'm a minority.
If your opponent leaves the match, you win. The option from pause menu reads "concede duel" for a reason.
That being said, I feel like once someone concedes, the match should end and award the other player a win instantly.
I've conceded matches if I feel the game is already decided. Otherwise, you may end up dealing with the player who goes out of their way to drag the match on. If I have two health and no blockers, and they have 3 attackers with a combined power of 15, they don't really need to play spells to draw cards or activate abilities to play more lands.
I couldn't be more excited that new decks are coming soon. The original decks can be fun, but they seem mostly geared to help those new to the game (Avacyn's Glory and Deadwalkers being prime examples).
The views and opinions of Terror are not those of TA. They're probably not even Terror's.
