Yes, I guess that's what I meant! In my playgroup we're all new to MTG and I've noticed that everyone almost always taps out all mana (unless they have a removal/counterspell in hand), me included.
I should probably start avoiding going all-in like you do, to reduce both how I'm perceived by others and the resources I commit up until the boardwipe. I guess it can be a proper strategy, thanks!
Could be a habit from games like Hearthstone where playing "on curve" is super important because you can only play stuff on your turn. In Magic, you often want to leave the impression that you could interrupt something or whatever.
MTG is our first TCG so it's definitely not that lol we like big boards and spells, we're actually few people so we don't really play super competitive, make many mistakes, and games take way too long (around twice as long compared to what WoTC say about Commander games' duration) lol
Well it sounds like yall have a good time :)
We do, would be nice to make games a bit shorter but I guess that will come with better decks and more experience with what we're playing haha
