    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    I'm guessing we still use the same submissions link from the first post. It probably said "round 1" last time, but I somehow didn't notice then.

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    All good. Doubles definitely happen, but it's a really small chance that forcing them to discard one isn't enough. I'm guessing that a deck playing two copies of SSG equally fails to function if it...

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    Nope. Just a simple mistake. Haven't though about these in a while.



    I was already on Depths and decided to play discard later. I wasn't thinking of flashing it back. Hitting multiples feels...

    I think the banlist is missing: Daze, Simian Spirit Guide, Sphere of Resistance, and maybe others.

    I don't understand why dte and FTW got -6 each. Shouldn't it be -3 because they played 3 cards...

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    Is the penalty per overlap one match point (the same as you would win for a draw) or one round point?

    Also, I assume that the ban list starts blank (except for Lab Man, Thassa's Oracle, and Jace...

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    A penalty of only a single point seems almost irrelevant. Perhaps a penalty of an entire round point is too severe, but I think it'll do a good job of forcing diversity. It might feel a bit random...

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    Wait, I'm confused. When you declared your time to be 8:30, did you mean PM? I assumed you meant AM, which puts you in Chicago time, which makes the deadline 11 hours and change from now.

    Re: 4 Card Blind: Ban-Back Better

    I think y'all are talking across each other regarding draws. Rule 4 says "you do not win a single game", but that happens somewhat often in draw-heavy rounds. I think Wrath of Pie is saying that the...

    I like that you're innovating the structure of the season. I think median scoring is really nice for forgiving missed weeks, illegal entries, or a misunderstood rule. It'll make grand victories a...

    I'd like to be the first to acknowledge and appreciate that Red Sun's Zenith has art that is full of goblins. Though I think those goblins might be getting smashed rather than doing the smashing.
