not only that they use names of abilities I do not know and do not explain them. For instance, I did not know cycle at first. They could say cycle for 1which means draws a card or something like that. Not every time but throughout the show sporadically. As a player who knows how to play causually for many years I dont know all the rules.

Yep, this would be much more entertaining for the masses if you could see the cards, and commentary that explains them. They need to have multiple cameras, with zoomed in views on specific cards, or have pre-loaded card information to put on the screen. Either way, this could be improved a lot, and I hope they do this yr.

It’s funny reading comments from newer players disparaging control decks. At the time this match was played, the Temur deck was absolutely dominant and no one was playing UB control. This was seen as an exciting outsider deck taking down the oppressive deck that everyone hated.

If we get to see the cards it could have been better. They should play it more like an anime. This is probably the first I missed the description based battle cries after each move. I don't know. I guess I'm just some taking your time to enjoy instead of rushing things kind of guy.

I like magic. Nice game reali shot monsters and poisens

what’s the cool thing that they are doing with their hands every once and a while? Asking because I am a new player and kind of want to learn how.

If there were better camera angles and the announcers explained things in a way that people besides the homies at my local game store would understand this would be enjoyable to watch

Im new to this but what kinda shuffling is the guy on the left doing

I want there to be little cameras that focus on the cards so we can identify the card they're using.

How do they keep score in their heads? There is so many things to consider, im going to search now but if someone could explain here that would be cool as well.
