Anyone here plays Magic: Duels?
I know it is online and such but it is magic so I guess this is a right board?
What are you playing?
What are your tricks to get rank 40?
Did you find any cheat level combos?
How do you like current meta?
I'm currently at rank 23, but I have been testing some new builds that showed not to be very efficient. Playing mainly GW control with a lots of investigate, but also some mono red, BR and BW aggro (damn, meta is so full of aggro right now) some esper controls and such... can post a decklist(s) if anyone is interested.

What are your tricks to get rank 40?
Mana-fixing via 4 sylvan rangers helps alot.
Did you find any cheat level combos?
The game is shitty and full of glitches so you can abuse them. For example flipwalker Jace's -3 ability doesnt exile the card so you can keep casting boardwipes again and again if that sounds like something you'd want to do.
How do you like current meta?
Mostly I just play bot games to complete my daily quests. I occasionally play against actual players just to get the win of the day coins.
I might occasionally bump this thread.

What is your rank?
Sylvan ranger is really good, I can confirm. Playing only 3 though, the forth being Nissa who basically fits the same role.
Also great fan of Bellower and Gaea's revenge (most decks have zero answers for that, usually ends up being 3 for 1)
Care to post your RUG good cards.dec?
Bet you are playing Chandra's ignition =)
Interesting point about Jace. Never noticed although I play him in almost every deck.

You should run Nissa in addition to the 4 rangers. Nissa can't color fix like they can. Plus the deck thinning matters.
Bellower is great in 4 or 5 color decks but you shouldn't run Gaea's revenge unless you're a ramp deck. 7 mana is just too high. You'll die to the aggro deck while it sits in your hand being worthless.
>Bet you are playing Chandra's ignition =)
God no. Card's terrible. Can't do anything by itself.

Thanks for tips. I run revenge in ramp with explosive vegetation. I run multiple 1/3 creatures with Ulvenwald mysteries to slow down aggro until my Outland colossus can hit the board and thats usually it for them.
How do you like press for answers? I was considering it in my UG investigate.
I also have just origins and 90% of Innistrad.
There is a lot of powerfull cards in Zendikar that I'm really missing, like Ulamog, big Chandra, Greenwarden or Advocate.
Thanks for a decklist, seems pretty sweet.
When you are farming hard AIs, do you run monored aggro for speed?
Art for the cause

>How do you like press for answers? I was considering it in my UG investigate.
Well if i didn't think it was great I wouldn't be running a playset of it would I? Additionally its a bad idea to play an investigate deck. Many of the most important cards for it were excluded from Magic Duels. Investigate should be a side-dish in a deck whose main focus is elsewhere.
>When you are farming hard AIs, do you run monored aggro for speed?
Nah. Takes the fun out of it. Besides, if you make a deck as inconsistent as monored in this highly constricted format you'll just get frustrated on the games you don't win. No deck thinning or draw power.
Run it once in a while to scratch that mtg itch without spending all of my jew gold on it.

Jew gold is a term we are using too, where are you from?
