Title: Stickied Archetype Threads?
Post by: herohammer on October 15, 2009, 09:43:04 PM: I've been a member of an mtg board called mtg salvation for many years and there and on the official wotc magic boards, they use stickied threads for major archetypes. I know that with a small and more scattered group of playgroups playing Redemption that things would have to be done a little different on here, but I think that a similiar system could be applied.

Decks could be separated into strategic categories like, speed decks, heroless, site lockout, zebulon decks, discard decks, garden tomb decks, etc.

I just think it would help keep the forums more easily navigable at a moments notice as well as getting more advice posted on individual decks.

What do you guys think of the idea?

Way too many archetypes.

mtg has far more archetypes than us, and they manage to do it.

excellent idea, herohammer.

that is what got me thinking about the idea. I think that organizing archetypes threads could help new people like the OP of that thread and myself as well as making quick reference to card ideas for tournament players easier.
