Every fricking time.
Best news I've read all day, stallgays get the rope
either:
you are a homosexual who intentionally delays his move to piss people off, maybe in some "mind games" type of trash play, maybe just to troll people because you can't experience happiness without schadenfreude anymore
or
you aren't a troll but are SO SLOW that you are taking multiple minutes to play out a single move, in which case I think you are too stupid to be playing even a fricking card game, and you should probably go back to FPS or fighting games or something, where you can make up for a lack of intelligence with just reflexes
if you have no reflexes either, then I don't understand why you are playing video games at all
Like every game ever there's a timer on your turn, Black person. This is about someone trolling with a turtling deck who just passes turns while his opponent can't kill him
Although don't you lose when you run out of cards?
get fricked stallshitter
it's only 3 days you'll live
if you don't want to play a boring waiting game then you shouldn't choose a card game
people who aren't moronic will make a play within 10 seconds, this moron was probably sitting there for 5 minutes on each turn
so why isnt there a turn timer then? imagine getting banned because the devs didnt put in the most basic of gameplay mechanics.
>stall others
>get stalled back
If WOTC was based the email would have just said "We heard you like waiting to play".
They're just taking their time before they let you start a new round anon, be patient
It's 3 days, dude, that should be more than enough time for you to plan your next move.
Huh? how does that work, doesnt the game have turn timers?
And if they mean that you are extending the game when you could finish your opponent... can't they just surrender?
I dont play MTG i only played some hearthstone as card related game but i fail to see the problem
If you take the full time allotted every single time, you turn a 10 minute match into a 40 minute one.
most games give you a progressively shorter timer each turn if you take too long on your last. why cant arena do that?
unlike every other shitty card game that exists, magic is actually complex
>why is your game so shittily designed it literally steals your money when you play it as intended
>"ITS LE COMPLEX"
cope i opened an imperial seal today 🙂
You guys have to know you're arguing in bad faith, right? I'll never understand why you bother unless you actually just like being c**ts to feel special or whatever.
This is an intended feature. The devs thought about how long a turn should take at its maximum and intentionally set it. It should be reduced if developers changed their minds and now think its too long.
The intended feature is to take as long as your turn NEEDS. Not to sit there and waste time.
Come on, anon. You know that's what's going on here and it's not what you're claiming it is.
If the turns don't need to take that long, why did they make it so long? Just reduce it the answer is extremely simple there it zero excuse not to.
>how long a turn should take at its maximum
at its maximum, not every single time
>B-BUT THEN THEY WOULD'VE MADE IT DIFFERENTLY
they did, and that's why you got your b***h ass banned, op
>le bad faith
no. actually, its a legitimate argument. if youre playing within the timer then whats the problem? if the devs made the timer too long thats on them, if they dont give you shorter turns for taking too long thats also on them. 3 days or perm doesnt matter, it isnt the point, somebody was banned for playing within the rules, simple as. even fricking pokemon showdown the free browser game figured out to give stallers shorter turns for wasting peoples time. why is mtga so incompetent?
You actually don't understand the concept of bad faith and are engaging in ad hominem.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. If the rules as they stand suck, then change the rules. Don't punish someone for doing something that they were explicitly allowed to do.
you must have a very low bar for complexity. its probably the most popular tgc in the world besides yugioh or pokemon if you include collectors since hardly anyone actually plays pokemon, you're not fooling anyone, mtg isnt some obscure game most people on this board havent played. regardless. if you have a 3minute turn and spent 2:45 on it your next turn should be shorter, if your online cardgame cant do that you have failed as a dev and banning people for your poor design is the ultimate admission of failure.
t. never played the game
mtg or your gay hearthstone version? because ive spent hours and hundreds of dollars on the tgc, my lgs has events 3 fricking times a week. how underaged are you to think mtg is some unheard of rarely played game?
>seething this hard
yup never touched a card in your life
>youre le mad because i said so
so what youre saying is YOU has never touched a card and youre just le epic maymay troller. ya cot me lackn omegapoggers fr fr no cap no sus based
>n-no u

Not him but the majority of the complexity in MtG comes from the deck building. Play something like Android: Netrunner to see the alternative, where deck building still matters but the majority of the complexity and decision making is in the turn by turn plays.
It is actually mathematically complex, even if you're arguing in bad faith. https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.09828
You do realize this is a thing in professional chess, go, shogi and other games right?
>can Google “best deck” and beat 95% of players
>complex
Defending magic because you spent way too much money on a shitty card game is insane cope homosexual.
It's a classic strategy in both IRL and online card games to 'stall for time' which is basically take as long as possible to finish your turn for no reason other than you want to waste the other guy's time.
IRL this can make it so you run out of time and deny the other person a 3rd game but online it's manly used to troll and waste people's time. To get banned for this you'd pretty much have to be doing it on purpose to just troll and waste people's time or to hope that they'll just get bored and quit so they can do something else / do a game that isn't taking 10 times longer than a normal one.
There IS usually a timer but you're not expected to take literally every second of said timer as possible. It's bad sportsmanship at it's finest.
Its almost never intentionally used to deny a game three. Don't be disingenuous.
>"Money stolen"
>A measly three day ban
Shit thread
time is money
diablo immortal makes a million dollars per day
they should pay him 3 million dollars for his lost time
Don't be so salty, you're just getting stalled for 3 days. That's all...
time stallers get the rope
Sounds like a problem with timer length. OP did nothing wrong, played by the rules.
>Play game using the time constraints developers added
>Devs don't like this and want you to go faster
Why not reduce the turn time if they don't want players taking that long? This is literally by their own design
Probably just some blue denial deck player whining that he has to wait before they can make you not play the game.
Don't these games have a timer that usually skips your turn or even forfeits the match if you're too slow?
The frick would you be banned when the game should have a feature to prevent being a dick like this?
Meh magic becomes unplayable if people stalling every turn. That being said I will use my entire turn to think on difficult turns (ropecoach style)
Why doesn't Arena use the MTGO clock? It's better in every way.
I always love seeing threads like this and seeing Ganker jump through hoops to act as disingenuous as possible explaining how it's bad to be an butthole towards others.
nobody is jumping through hoops or being disingenuous while explaining to you that banning somebody for playing within the ruleset is an butthole move.
Alright I hope you're fine with me delaying my turn indefinitely.
>indefinitely
is there not a turn timer?
wait, so you got banned for using the time the devs gave you? what happened to actually designing game competently where this wouldn't be an issue?
>Play the MTG equivalent of bullet chess
>Play it has a regular version.
Arena unironically needs to steal the Hearthstone turn timer or force loss due to inactivity.
claim you have a disability and post this on reddit
>steal someone's time
>gets arrested
>"uuuuh me dindu nuffin"
Everytime, maybe quit stealing.
why don't they just add a timer or something, being banned for playing the game with the rules they've set is crazy, I don't know how you guys defending this.

why don’t they add a timer limit instead of banning slows
I WILL NOW BUY YOUR CARD GAME
MTGA is probably the worst software ever made
These moron devs haven't fixed critical bugs that have existed for years. Unplayable, dropped
>giving money to Juden of the Coast
shiggy diggy
>be toxic
maybe dont go afk like some third world moron
Why don't they just have a timer and when you use it up you automatically forfeit?
Why didn't they just use the MTGO clock where stalling means you lose the match?
You can tell who hasn't played the game in this thread.
The client is an absolute piece of shit that constantly crashes, hence turn timers need to be extra long to allow you to reload into the game.
how many threads did this autist make till now, must be in the thousands
>hehe i wasn't trying to troll or waste time, I really was just thinking 🙂
Why do you gays even bother saying this? Do you really think anyone believes you?
More online card games ought to have an overall timer like Chess, rather than individual turn timers.
iirc YGO Duel Links had something to that effect and it did a great job at preventing stalling. You could be a bit slow for maybe a turn or two, but if you did it too often and your timer ran out you'd just lose the match.
MTG already hat that in MTGO where each player got 30 minutes for the entire match (2-3 rounds) and if they stalled too much or wasted too much time resolving triggers, they were just shit out of luck.
iirc Duel Links had a similar caveat where any time you got asked "Would you like to trigger this optional effect?" you'd inevitably spend a second of the timer clicking Yes/No.
Devs could probably just program it so that you get a 2-second grace on those popups before it actually starts burning time to be a fair compromise
The game let you avoid losing single seconds to things like that allowing you to either set your client to "ignore all triggers until X" or by setting defaults for certain triggers so it would just skip over asking you.
Their old client was kind of dogshit but it was a somewhat good way to play the game if you could make it past being filtered by the UI.
It's also the only version of digital MTG they ever made that actually supports Commander by virtue of having access to almost all of the sets.
>set turn timer
>decide that it's too long and ban people for using it instead of just lowering the available time
What the frick
doesn't the game have a turn timer, that's kind of on them if using the entirety of it all the time is considered egregious. I don't disagree that it's kind of ridiculous to max it out every time, but the timer is is there for a reason.
>behaviour is not against the rules
>get banned for it
That's what I call bad game design
