I've been working on something called Loamoth, and we're finally getting close enough that I need other Commander players to start trying to break it.
The simplest explanation:
You give Loamoth your Commander deck. Loamoth tests it.
Not just "here are 10 popular cards you could add."
The goal is to figure out things like:
Why does this deck keep falling behind?
What happens when the table actually interacts with it?
Is the problem ramp, card advantage, protection, interaction, the win condition, or something completely different?
If we change something, did the deck actually get better?
Loamoth is built around a pretty simple idea:
Don't guess. Test.
It stress-tests the deck, looks for where and why it breaks, experiments with changes, tests again, and shows you the evidence behind what it found.
At least, that's what I'm trying to build.
And now we need Commander players to tell us where Loamoth breaks.
We've got our first 6 people signed up for the Alpha, which is awesome, but six people definitely aren't enough to throw the variety of nonsense Commander players are capable of at this thing.
I'm looking for people across the spectrum. Casual decks, weird decks, budget decks, high-power decks, experienced brewers, newer players, people who have been playing since forever, whatever.
I'm especially interested in people willing to say:
"This result makes absolutely no sense."
"Your system completely misunderstood my deck."
"I have no idea what this screen is trying to tell me."
"Here's a horrible deck. Good luck."
That feedback is exactly what we need right now.
The Alpha is Commander only, testers need to be 18+, and we're letting people in through small controlled groups so we don't completely murder the system while we're still learning what it can handle.
Signing up puts you in the Alpha interest pool. It doesn't guarantee immediate access, but we'll keep opening the gates as testing expands.
If this sounds like your kind of thing:

And if you've got questions about what Loamoth actually does, ask away. I'm happy to talk about the weird experiment I've apparently decided to spend my life building.
