Vintage forum?
TappedOut forum

I was wondering why exactly that there's no vintage forum on here. I wanted to ask whether or not squirrel's are actually viable in vintage, or if they are a more casual commodity.

We could add the forum, but I doubt it would see much use. Vintage is probably the least popular of the formats, and very few users here bother with it.

vintage is one of the most broken formats there is. sadly there is not a forum for vintage and no, unless you can win turn 1 with squirrels consistently , it is not a good vintage deck.

Not every Vintage deck is a turn 1 win, but unless your Squirrel deck is some kind of crazy Earthcraft / Squirrel Nest build then I doubt it's really competitive Vintage-ready.
Competitive Vintage is much more popular in Europe than the US nowadays. In some ways it's almost a completely different game than the one most "normal" Magic players are used to. If you're not talking about true competitive Vintage, then what you're really asking about is what most players simply call Casual.

Haha, of course I wait until after I posted that to look at your squirrel deck and see that it is Earthcraft / Squirrel Nest . If you want to get serious Vintage discussion you're better off visiting the MTGSalvation forums, where they have a well populated subforum specifically for that format.

Another point Rhadamanthus brought up: TappedOut's user base is largely focused around Standard, Modern, and EDH (a makeup that is reflective of the Magic player base in general). Even if we had a dedicated Vintage forum for the few Vintage players here, it would see such little activity that most posts in it would likely get only one or two responses (if any).
Larger communities like MTGS will actually have the user bases to support active discussion of even fringe formats.

Im guessing because its not a very popular format.
