      Very nice and clear intro. Been playing since 1994 but a refresher is always welcome. The one thing I thought could be improved would be to set the format (standard most likely, as it requires a smaller card pool) for the deck so the newcomers are not overwelmed with old cards in the results. Crafting cards only to get destroyed because they're only playable in high-power formats would be unfortunate.
      I'd love to see more advanced deckbuilding lessons from you.
      Cheers

    • @daniduc
      @daniduc Год назад +1

      it's a new channel, only a couple of weeks old - takes time to build momentum with the RUclips algorithm, and everyone starts at zero. But if they keep consistent with the top content, it will eventually have lots of views.

    I am a hardcore Yugioh player and I love that card game. I always will and that's the only trading card game I play never got into any other one, but I do play a little of the dragon ball card game. Back in high school my friends showed me this game and I had a lot of fun, not knowing really how to play. Now I've grown an interest in this game and learning and having fun. This is a helpful video for a beginner like myself. Great job and thanks!

    I mostly knew this strategy already but wow actually trying it out on arena I made a black white toxic mite aggro deck and it has been destroying. Just threw a bunch of cards with toxic, corrupted and proliferate in cause they all synergize with each other. Also threw in alot of removal which really helps you setup if you don't have an aggresive starting hand

    I've just started playing Commander IRL (deck building is fairly easy thanks to EDHREC) and wanted to get better at Magic by playing Arena.
    Let's say I was a bit lost and kept playing events and pre cons.
    What u did is an amazing beginner point to start building my own deck.
    Thank you again!
