I’ve noticed that in my playgroup when someone is falling behind in Commander they usually get much, much less heat, to the point that they’re able to ramp their mana and then just win out of nowhere after everyone has depleted their resources etc., so I was wondering if one could actually fake it and if you do do you have any tips for it?

    Could be a habit from games like Hearthstone where playing “on curve” is super important because you can only play stuff on your turn. In Magic, you often want to leave the impression that you could interrupt something or whatever.

      MTG is our first TCG so it’s definitely not that lol we like big boards and spells, we’re actually few people so we don’t really play super competitive, make many mistakes, and games take way too long (around twice as long compared to what WoTC say about Commander games’ duration) lol

          We do, would be nice to make games a bit shorter but I guess that will come with better decks and more experience with what we’re playing haha
