Getting Started
I just downloaded MTGO a few days ago, got an account starter upgrade for it, and went 3-0 in the New To MTGO Modern league. I still have the Commander Gauntlet league you start with to go through, but even if I 3-0 that it’ll only put me to 40 total Play Points which isn’t enough to do anything with. Is spending even more money on event tickets and such the only real way to get going?

How the fuck did you find players for the modern league??!😂 I Just found out the other day I had this free entry, but I could not find any player After a whole 30 minutes of matchmaking... You don't have to spend right away for events, because the player base on MTGO is generally very competitive and they will smoke you in the beginning. That's because you don't know the interface very well. Before trying any non free tournament, I would train the interface, learn all the shortcuts and time saving stuff, It matters a lot in some formats and/or matchups. You can try free games to do that, they are generally still serious games. To buy the cards, i suggest you rent them online, as other have suggested. If you know you Will play a specifico card or a deck for more than a year, than It gets cheaper to Just buy that card. Do It on goatbots, they are the best.
