well it was 21212
You say that like a high count is an insult.
I have been here since the forums were invented, and have participated most days.
Remind me again why that is undesirable?
you are putting words in my mouth(on my fingers?).

Perhaps I don’t understand the point you were trying to make:)
had it stayed at 21212 it would have been funny
Oh my stars:) lol. Color me clueless:)
I only just noticed lmao.
But on message, there are so many cards that just flip the script and most of the ones I named, I see every single day.
If we flushed them, there would be space for new things.

I feel like we would just need a mode like wild(that they actually balanced) where questlines(maybe even all quests), heroes, titans … could be banned for a month so that players who enjoy wild(Players who are not enjoying standard even) could get relief from specific things(multiple even some months) could even do a simple Calendar year swap/rotation
Month 1: no Quests
Month 2: No hero cards
Month 3: No titans/colossal
maybe even put a twist to the format like
Month 4: only cards created in an even year (no year of mammoth/dragon etc)
Month 5: only cards created in an odd year (Only cards from the year of mammoth/dragon etc)
oh wait I’m describing what Twist SHOULD have been…

See, this what I thought as well:)
My idea was a bit different.
There are seven card sets allowed in Standard, so why not let players choose from any seven sets?
IDK. I like the idea of rotation that you have as well:)
Another idea I had was to ban Standard from wild until rotation.
meh… 90210 would have been funny.
Also, I would never want to eliminate a card entirely except in some extremely rare circumstances. Typically this can happen in wild with crazy unexpected combinations.
An example might be where a card might cause an infinite loop, crashing the game. But outside of this sort of situation, I don’t see any rationale for completely eliminating cards.

And I can definitely see the defense here.
Players pay for those cards.
I just wish there were a way to see diversity in Wild and Standard.
I still think that banning Standard from Wild until rotation is a good idea, and I would support modifying Twist so that players have more agency.
That’s actually pretty interesting, but even as a Standard only player, I’d have to voice my opposition. Unfortunately, that change would pretty much wipe out one of my favorite streamers, Mark McKz. A lot of the appeal for his videos is how he uses the new cards in conjunction with some old ones to create fresh new wacky win conditions. If he has to wait for rotation, the “new” cards become old news and it wouldn’t so fresh and exciting.

I like the idea because it gives Wild some evergreen qualities.
I don’t mind theo and parrots, but the rest leaving would make wild much more interesting.

As a standard only player you shouldn’t have an opposition it doesn’t hinder you any
Mark Mckz makes a lot of videos I enjoy watching however I feel many players(right now with reno) would love a mode that didn’t use certain new cards and to put 1 Streamer( and the average viewer count of 25k per video) as more important then the collective of all players is asinine.
The cards wouldn’t be OLD news as they rotate into wild they would be NEW news, it just would all happen at once
incorrect, as usual.
Fair enough. I dislike them because they appear repeatedly in decks. Wild should be far more diverse, but because of cards like Titans and Colossals you see the same decks over and over.
See, to my mind, this is an improvement, as Wild would get the equivalent of it’s own releases.
It would shake Wild up far more than it does now, and Wild would see some continuity between releases.
Right now it’s just the same decks as Standard, but with what ever was op in past sets.
This wouldn’t completely cure that, but I think it would make Wild more fun.

that doesnt explain why you want cards that dont see compettivie play and people who use them do it for fun to be removed
like shaman DK
marsh queen quest
last kalidosaur
or hack the system
id understand if you were talking just about demon seed …but so many quests and heroes arent OP you even included the mage and DH titans
i nnever seen any of those as broken on any thread in this forum
not even leo/phen complained about them and he complains about every single card that sees any play
why do you think i came to the conclusion you hate the game and people having fun with it ?

I can’t speak for you, but I see the same exact decks every single month in Wild.
Same cards, same strategies.
I am just offering ideas for how Wild might be better as an evergreen format.
If they aren’t good ideas, then please say why you think so.
I enjoy discussing the game, and theoretical ways to improve it
I don’t know why it is I cannot make a single thread that you don’t have a problem with.
I mean this forum, nor you, any harm, whatsoever.
And if you made a thread that I disliked, I would simply ignore it.
I truly think that OP cards like Titans and Colosssals are the reason that Wild is so stale.
i cannot agree with this thread.
cards could be nerfed, but i am against any “destroying” of cards.

Point taken. I just wish there were a way to not have wild always be the same exact decks, no matter what.
Any ideas on how to facilitate that?
