1: Blade flurry generates combo points based on how many targets it hits, if you have grand melee with 1 target only, blade flurry will generate 2 combo points, with broadsides 3, if you have seal fate up to 4 on a single target.
Beside the point, buried treasure should give you 1 extra combo point to use, so up to 8. This is just a much cooler bonus, than 5 flat energy regen. If they want to keep the same regen they can just increase it a little bit. Or increase the proc chance of fatal flourish.
Grand Melee, while providing some level of comfort in play, has been one of the if not the worst buff of all 6 for a long time to the point where it was the only one you could reroll even if you got a 2nd buff. It needs change. However, that is not to say that maybe SnD itself needs some change for Outlaw specifically as well. Like just lasting longer or something.
They are the 2 major problems i have with outlaw, and they are all packaged in 1 awful change. And i bet that many if not most of the rogue mains agree with me on this. Go ask on discord how they feel about this change, do it, come on.
Again, your description of an awful change seems to rest on the fact that you will now have to press more SnD and BF. Thats not you having a problem with Grand Melee. Thats you having a problem with SnD and BF.
I would have absolutely no objections to your post if it was about SnD being too short after GM is gone, and having to press BF in a single target situation being kind of weird and unnecessary. Because I can wholly agree to both of those.
Now you also say you hate the GM change because it means you will have to press BF in a ST situation.
I can actually relate to that and such would be a result of the new GM buff.
Its a fair concern, but its not really a concern you converse very well in your opening post.
Sorry, i cannot agree to that, unless they make slice and dice duration so long that the management aspect is negligible i will not like it, and if they make it like 5 min duration baseline, at that point you might as well make it passive.
Nah I actually like that it is a conscious decision, because sometimes you get into moments where not using SnD ends you up with more dam and that comes down to the players ability of situational awareness and interpretation. And thats a good thing.
But too short, especially in the world of outlaw where you already spamming your brains out, it becomes a bit of a strain. I like the 42-48 seconds I get for Subtlety. But for Outlaw it could be a bit more. Like 90-100 seconds or so.
I won't bore you with the details, because the rules Dr. Garfield lays out below are surprisingly close to the Grand Melee rules today, but the upshot is that Grand Melee lets literally any number of people play in a single massive game of Magic, with multiple turns going on simultaneously. This spectacle has appeared several times at the Gen Con gaming convention in Indianapolis.
Dr. Garfield's story of the very first Grand Melee, at a small local con called RadCon in 1994, reveals a lot about the origins of the format, the epic scenes (and occasional logistical nightmares) it entails, and Garfield's thoughts on the joys and pitfalls of multiplayer play. You can read about more recent Grand Melees here and here. And if you're curious about the modern rules, you can head to the Rules page and download the Comprehensive Rules (not for the faint of heart!), which contain the complete Grand Melee Variant rules.
While no official multiplayer rules were originally published with Magic: The Gathering, many unofficial play variations have evolved. Some of these methods of play are outlined in the Pocket Players' Guide. One of the best of these is a version of the game that I have started calling Melee Magic.
A second problem lies in motivating players to take the offensive. Games in which aggressive action may cause losses for all involved players frequently lead to the quietest player winning, which is hardly the recipe for an exciting game. To counter this effect some games make aggressive play profitable, as in Risk, where players are rewarded with cards which give them extra armies.
Many of the group variations of Magic I have seen suffer from both of these flaws. In particular, I do not regard very highly the variation of Magic where players can attack anyone and the last player in the game wins, because it encourages unbalanced teams and rewards conservative play. Melee Magic, however, successfully counters these problems, and allows a huge number of people to play in the same game.
Players sit so that each has other players to the left and right. Each player can only launch a creature attack on the player to the left. All other magical effects have a range of two people. A spell which refers to your opponent, such as Black Vise or Lifetap, requires you to choose which opponent (within two) the spell will affect upon being cast. Afterwards, the affected player cannot be changed, and if he or she is removed from the game, the spell is discarded. All spells which refer to "both" or "all" players affect the caster, the two players to the left, and the two players to the right.
You get one point if your left-hand neighbor leaves the game, and one and a half points for surviving. Note that you get the point for your left neighbor leaving even if someone else performs the coup de grace with a Lightning Bolt. If playing for ante, you get the ante of the player to your left when he or she is removed from the game, even if you die simultaneously, and you get to keep your ante only if you are the survivor. In addition, when a player leaves the game, all of his or her cards and tokens are removed from play (though the effect of those weird permanent-altering interrupts, such as Magical Hack and Deathlace, linger on).
Note that in a three- or four-player game the survivor wins, but when adding the score for a series of games the number of points for surviving may make a difference, and the player that eliminates the most players will accumulate the largest score. Naturally you will want to vary seating order between games, since it will make a big difference to the play.
The seating arrangement and spell range in Melee Magic allow several players to take their turns at the same time. This is because a person three to your left or right is out of your spell range anyway. So you can have a third of the players (rounded down) taking turns simultaneously. When they are finished the players to their left take their turns. This allows an indefinite number of people to compete in a reasonable amount of time in the same game. However, while simultaneous play speeds up the game, it also requires a much larger number of judges. When enough players drop out, a "turn" is dropped and one of the judges is removed from the game.
The world's first Grand Melee was held at RadCon, a small science fiction convention in Richland, Washington. This was possibly the world's largest card game ever, and certainly the world's largest Magic game to date that we know of. The Grand Melee was a 40-person game of Melee Magic, with 13 judges standing behind the 13 players whose turn it was at any given time in the beginning. Every third person to fall would cause us to drop a judge. We also removed tables as the group shrank, another unusual feature of this format.
So you can appreciate the magnitude of this, here's a sketch of the 40 people and 13 judges sitting around various tables. Pretty impressive, no? We set the game up in a row this way because we ended up using every single table in the gaming area. In this age of large numbers, 40 doesn't seem big. When setting up the game and the number of players began to sink in, I asked Snark why he didn't stick a muzzle on me when I began talking about a 40-person game. But in the afterglow, after a good night's sleep, I regret nothing.
Whenever a player left the game, the player on their right received a booster pack and a victory point. In addition, there was a grand prize for the most points, which went to Hoi Nguyen with 7 kills. There was a second-place prize that went to Al with 6 kills. There was an honorable mention which went to Joel, who was the Melee's sole survivor. We recommend that the survivor get some award in these competitions to provide motivation for the last few participants to win and not throw the competition. However, it is vital the winner isn't just the survivor. I have cold chills thinking of 40 people bringing their "let others do the killing; I am going to endure" decks to a competition like this.
The game lasted about five hours, which is typical for a normal tournament of this size. The dynamics were unusual and fascinating to watch. In some parts of the circle, it was a waiting game, with creatures just standing around, while other areas were rife with spells flying back and forth and attacks surging backwards around the circle as players would attack and leave themselves open to receive attacks in turn.
Sometimes these assaults on more distant opponents didn't work out as planned: one player told me he invested everything he had into getting rid of a player two seats away because the person had Karma in play and was nickel-and-diming him to death with it, only to discover that the next player in line had two Karmas in play. Bummer!
Often we'd see a player casting healing spells on an attacker, to fend off a worse opponent who would come into range if that player died. One player had a horde of red creatures out and the person to his left had a Circle of Protection: Red. The players downstream of the Circle were making sure that it stayed in place, because they didn't have adequate defenses against the red horde. There was a collusion that arose about midway during the game where one player's Dwarven Warriors caused the player downstream to have unblockable Knights. This did many players in, and there was a round of applause when someone Fireballed the Dwarves to death.
