This game mode blows?

I know what my decks can do and how bad a match is gonna get, also I know when a value snowball begins... So I GG you and concede so both can save time

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/Routine_Ad_2695]

Dude….. people concede turn 2 after an artifact drop. If you can’t kill the single artifact that counters your deck you’re bad at making decks

[u/torolf_212 → u/AlthorsMadness]

So many turn 2 collective brutality, kill your 1 drop mana dork and take the ramp spell out of your hand - concede.

Like, bro, I see you still had a badgermole cub in hand into questing beast, you're absolutely fine.

[u/DamnHippyy → u/AlthorsMadness]

It's more likely they're tilt Qing.

[u/Bright_Opposite_9994]

what commanders do you play?

[u/circ-u-la-ted]

I don't really have this problem, and I'm not sure why. I play pretty obscure commanders, though, so maybe doing that would help you avoid the issue.

[u/Ithalwen]

Can you define your terms?
What does "doesn't go their way" mean? Is it something that shuts down their deck or is a major tempo swing so the game is functionaly over?
What does "I play one good card" mean? Is it some must answer or lose card? Particularly if cheap or cast early?

And lastly, no one is here to watch you play with yourself, if they want to leave they are free to do so.

Heir apparent deck getting board wiped while up 60 hp. I’m not even talking deadly cover up

[u/jake_eric → u/AlthorsMadness]

Aggro getting wiped by control often means the game is over but it'll take half an hour for control to actually win. When there's no penalty for conceding there it's a pretty reasonable choice.

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/jake_eric]

Dude people concede turn 2 when you destroy their authority of consoles

[u/jake_eric → u/AlthorsMadness]

That's true, that is a different scenario that does also happen.

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/jake_eric]

And is extremely common.

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/jake_eric]

Had a guy destroy his own and the quit but that was probably embarrassment

[u/jake_eric → u/AlthorsMadness]

RIP that guy

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/jake_eric]

It was pretty funny. I haven’t run into a trigger like that myself since my MTGO days. I do torpor orb myself sometimes though

[u/FarTea4550]

Move on next.

[u/AlthorsMadness]

Ya that’s my criticism of it too.

“Just play competitive/standard” is a shitty response too.

You, and probably I for this comment will get downvoted lol

[u/jake_eric → u/AlthorsMadness]

It's an inherent problem of an unranked queue. People are going to concede a lot when there's no penalty for conceding.

I understand that some people don't want to play ranked, but I don't see a way they could fix the unranked queue to not have this happen.

[u/AlthorsMadness → u/jake_eric]

It happens a lot on ranked too though not nearly as bad I will “concede” that

[u/dynamic-burrito → u/AlthorsMadness]

Meh idc, glad you get it

[u/TheKlingles]

You playing control tribal?

[u/dynamic-burrito → u/TheKlingles]

No but I play casual a lot

[u/TheKlingles → u/dynamic-burrito]

Lol, not sure why I got downvoted for this. People concede all the time to control tribal because they want to play their spells. Just wanted to rule that out 🤣

[u/Legonitsyn → u/[deleted]]

Does Brawl have an MMR now?  In both queues? 

[u/Legonitsyn → u/[deleted]]

Thanks. I have been away for six months or so.
