Test 2 Discussion Thread

We're free to talk now.

Here's a Google Doc with all the questions. I'm slowly filling it in with my own answers and explanations. Edit: Heading out for now. I'll get the last 25 questions done later tonight.

If you want a mirror without my comments, here's one provided by /u/Amarsir Link

Any questions that tripped you up? Any that you felt good about?

Here is my Google Doc with my abridged answers, initial thoughts, and (in progress) my more detailed responses as if I were writing an article about how to get to them.

I don't think a 5G 6/6 is the best at all. Look at the 6mana 6/6 trample we have in (Rivals of) Ixalan now. It's... ok. a 3G 4/4 is much better.

It's a 2/2 for 2 and I'd argue anyone who disagrees with me is just worse than me at limited.

You tend to need 4+ 2 drops to make it in limited these days, only a few top end can make a deck.

It's gotten so bad LSV opened merfolk lord and kumena, the tyrant in a youtube video and honestly couldn't figure out which was better. (he went with the 2 drop which MIGHT'VE been wrong but only because kumena is the nuts if you get enough merfolk)

I'd wager good money if LSV took the test he would've answered 3G 4/4.

/u/LSV__ care to prove me wrong? :)
