I'm not sure how this is "for beginners" you assumed your listeners knew alot and didnt explain anything other than the game engine use of the mode.

[Wurmfist]

I'm at 11 minutes in... and now you are fast-forwading through your picks, not explaining anything, not explaining how you are building your deck, what you are looking for, what you are picking. How is this a beginners guide? I have no idea what's going on. Rampy style deck? What's a ramp deck? This is not a beginner video.

I'm so glad I stumbled across this video. I hated drafts, but I can see now where I was going wrong. thanks!

I wanted to know how to select cards and you just fast forwarded thru the decision making process and said nothing…..

It has been super frustrating as a new player I have not seen a single video describing the menu system.I do not have that same menu and more importantly I have no mention of drafts so how does one actually enter a draft?
Under the HOME icon have literally nothing like only the quest and current event shows nothing else.

Some draft videos would be cool. Deck building from scratch is hard.

I know everyone else here is complaining about the actually presentation but I have a different complaint. Your audio volume is so low. I know this is an old video so I dk if you'll see this but it's my 5th or 6th video of yours ive seen, they're all the same. And it's both my phone and pc, I can jam to music on YouTube, on my pc volume set to 20-25 but I gotta crack you to 60 to understand you.

I feel dumb asking this question but I'm brand new. Do you draft lands or are they given to you?

[tlee]

I see that the win scale at the bottom continues offscreen. Are there better rewards for doing even better? Or does the deck just get retired afterward?

[LeonAnilom]

Do you also get to keep the cards that you selected, but didn't chose to play with in your final deck?

[garethzbarker]

So, as a brand new players, I'd probably like the ai draft, right? Do I have to play all the games consecutively?

[eksekjut]

As previously mentioned, not really a beginner guide.

[sazger]

Is it a good idea to do at least a two color draft? Seems like if you did a single color, if other players chose that color as well, you might not have enough carts to really effectively build a 40 car deck. So if you choose at least two colors or a multi color deck do you have a few options when selecting cards. I have yet to play A draft game and I’m trying to understand how the card selection works. Thanks

haha. The video was almost helpful for the first 10 minutes....

[PTNLemay]

So essentially the only way to progress the Limited rank is to spend gems? There's no way to try it if I have a free-only account? It's about 10$, that seems really steep just for an attempt.

[BigPaPaRu]

Are all cards offered the same for each player? Or is everyone getting different choices of cards?

I know this is a few months old now. But i just started playing this game about a week ago. Not new to online CCG's though. I had a question since i'm a tad confused. I got the confidence today to try my first draft. I picked the quick draft because it told me that I was going to be doing bot AI matches. But from what i saw i wound up battling against real people and i'm not sure why this happened. The only conclusion i had is that perhaps the devs programmed their AI to try and mimic human behaviors. But i question that simply because the normal bot matches the AI is trash. Usually if you click to say things like good game or nice or something like that the AI responds 100% of the time or not at all. But in all 3 of my matches i only got responded to by the first player. And i'm almost 100% certain that cards only highlight from real players. I couldnt imagine them making their AI so smart it hovers over cards on the board in order to highlight them.

So either im really stupid and their AI in draft does stuff i've never seen in any other online CCG which in that case, i would be very impressed. Or somehow i got matched vs real people even though i did quick draft. Like i said im pretty much brand spanking new to MTGA. So it could be just me being dumb and uninformed lol. I'm just really confused as to what happened to me in that draft lol.

[theogkingler]

Do they ever do “two headed giant” game mode?

[redsoxclaret]

Why do you draft a number of cards greater than the number of cards required and then have to dispense with some? I tried the quick draft for the first time today and that’s how it happened with me.

Hey everyone I made an updated version to this guide that is more refined and easier to digest than this one.
