Midweek Magic on Arena is Momir this week. I've never played it before, and I'm not sure if I'm doing it optimally.

I've had multiple opponents just pass turn for the first few turns, and I'm wondering if they're just confused or if there's a strategy I'm not seeing. It seems worth it to use the emblem every turn if you're not doing anything else, right?

I alternate between activating the emblem every turn or building up to something bigger. Kinda depends on what my opponent is doing.

Pretty good article here: https://www.hipstersofthecoast.com/2023/06/mtg-arena-midweek-magic-guide-momir/

I haven't gotten there, yet, but I'm trying to get to a 10-drop.

Thanks, I'll check the article out!

Seems like it would be really good to get a mana dork with an early cheap creature, that way you can get the bigger creatures sooner. I dunno what the odds of that are though (never happened to me).

Yeah, I've had terrible luck with the utility of the creatures I've been getting. It's mostly hoping to get flying before the other person at this point, haha.
