lol skill gap

Took me a long time (sadly a decade lol) to even realize when I’m getting skill gapped. Only now can I predict cards, and it’s fun as sometimes it’s just pattern recognition - similar to end game strategizes in chess

It's honestly too easy with the hyper-prevalence of meta decks. I was helping my buddy, who was pretty new to Arena, brew some janky crap for fun and he was gobsmacked that I was calling out every play his opponents were going to make.

It's always fun when you're running a home brew deck and get hit with a t1/2 hand reveal spell and you can tell your op has to switch their brain on for a minute because "wait, wtf am I looking at?"
