>>96499478If your thing is only "good" compared to something (in your mind) worse, then it's not fucking good. That isnt a commendation. It should stand on its own merit and it does not. Two independent things can be shitty, neither have to be good its not a this or that. Modern MTG tells retarded stories. FF lore is moronic. Both are true.
>>96499495>Modern MTGThe story being referenced is like a quarter century old.
>not even image cap reached on the last onewho rips these threads so fast?
>>96499501Absolutely irrelevant and beyond missing the point. You should strongly consider suicide.
>>96499512>Page 9
Okay so I gotta clear shit up about the Guff thing. He didn't rewrite reality or whatever. He had a book that unerringly showed the way things were gonna go, and then changed it when the book said they were all gonna die and he begrudgingly did so because Guff was a stand-in for the story head at the time, Scott McGough.>Commodore Guff crouched upon a gnarl of basalt and feverishly applied the massive eraser to the history of the Dominarian Apocalypse. There went a sentence about the death of Eladamri. Just after, Liin Sivi no longer died, for all the way through she had been paired to him as though she were his gimp leg. And what about this paragraph where Bo Levar lights a cigar in a swamp and is blown to smithereens? Guff didn't even erase that bit, but crumpled up the whole page and threw it into the lava that seeped from a nearby crack. What else had to go to make this goddamned trilogy work out? How about the legal material, and the dedication and acknowledgments? After all, who gives a goat's droppings for the editor of an epic? Commodore Guff hurled those pages aside and saw them catch fire. He threw out the teaser too. It had given away the destruction of Dominaria anyway, something that was completely undecided at this point.>Commodore Guff turned his face from the ravaged book in his hand and looked skyward. "This would never have happened when I was in charge of continuity."
>>96499461>no dude seriously the entire franchise has never had a good story!!!>being wrong on purposelmao
>He didn't rewrite history...They lost. Story was over. Yawg won. You can't redo fucking history and claim that isn't retarded. That's literally "stronger than Goku" shit.
>>96499512A UBFag wanted to make sure the OP was Spiderman because he wants to trigger other posters. Yes zoomies are that embarrassing.
>>96499525>He didn't rewrite reality or whatever>immediately shows that he alone heavily altered realitylmao
>>96499537>>96499532It's more like he made it so that his dumb magic book which was a meta joke no longer made the future fixed. He gave them the opportunity to win, he didn't just fix everything.
>>96499527Im sorry but it hasn't ever had a good story. You need to read more books if this is an opinion you seriously hold.
I know this general isn't actually about magic but why the fuck isn't this a vehicle?
>>96499548I'd argue you're wrong, but I also agree that other stories are also good. There being good, or even better stories out there does not disqualify several of those games from having good plots, interesting concepts, and compelling characters.
>>96499472>friendly neighborhood >whitehmmmmm
>>96499560Magic's story quality is basically comparable to long-running comics. Individual stories may or may not be good. The overall story is at best 'fine'.
>>96499567I also think Magic has had some very interesting and compelling stories, for example I am absolutely in love with the original Ravnica.
Half of the iconic magic characters are shitty rip offs of existing things. Magic has always been very derivative.
>>96499551fotm(s) mechanic
>>96499551>people discussing magic lore>post UBsloppa>GEE doesn't ANYONE wanna talk about MAGIC?>baitorretarded.jpeg
>>96499577Sir this is a commander thread. The MTG Lore threads died like a decade ago.
>>96499573>things can't be good unless you LITERALLY cannot find inspiration or connection to other things
>>96499551Probably started life as one but became just a creature on its own for balance reasons or something.
>>96499560>doesnt stopSure just let me know when they start fella. You like =/= good by the way! Read more books this is an embarrassing position to hold.
>>96499584Nope, I disagree with that which is why UB and such is fine. But hey, sorry we get less "Rip off of public domain shit" sets now.
>>96499525>He didn't rewrite reality or whatever.The card name is pretty specific, actually.
>>96499606It's a bit of a misnomer, because while the book is a history, it's a 'history from the future' because reasons. And it's more editing than rewriting, but that's semantics.
The Spider-Man set is fucking boring, Aetherdrift had more interesting cards and that set was dogwater.
>>96499621It is very boring but I still prefer it to aetherdrift.
>>96499621on the other hand, it's a good thing when UB sets suck shit
>TQ Didn't leave the table but my pod didn't like playing with a guy that would always do this when you played a card, he'd cut you off with a loud sound then grab it because he wanted to read it privately first. I have no idea why he did this but he did it with almost every damn card played and didn't like it when we touched his cards.
>>96499621I genuinely think the issue of Spider-Man is more structural than anything because of them changing its size midway through. Also because they decided to focus way too much on Spider-Verse-related stuff instead of more core Spidey stuff (Miles and Gwen can still be there, sure, but who the fuck was asking for Spider-Byte).
>>96499656I mean it clearly is because they changed shit mid production. Half the set seems to have some love put in it and the other half feels like they had to make a deadline. "Let's make a big change in the middle of everything" rarely works in any situation or industry.
>>96499621>Aetherdrift had more interesting cardsLet's not go that far anon I still see Aetherdrift pre-release boxes going for sale and the prices keep going down.
Do you care about having foils, nonny?
>>96499704Yes
OH FUGG ITS A DRAGON :DDDD
>>96499666Yeah, there's a few fun designs that feel flavourful and then there's whatever the hell Silk's design is meant to be. Like I dunno what you'd do to make her represented flavour-wise, but "she makes humans for some reason and then buffs your board for reasons" is not really even close.
>making new deck>want something less salt inducing>goldfishing to see how it does>turn 3 attacking with a 10/10 that punches all opponents for 5 on attackI don't think this is as casual as I hoped it would be
>>96499666It worked for the Bumblebee Transformers movie.
>>96499753>Torens but he pumpsYeah not sure what they were thinking.
>>96499845I mean, Silk is instinctually wired to want Spider-Man's pumps, so...
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>>96499829Worked for RE2. There are obvious exceptions. But the vast majority go real bad especially if it is due to corporate meddling.
>>96499753I feel like no one in Spider-Man gives a fuck about actually concealing their identity.
>>96499789the game doesnt start until everyone is at 20 lifeyou are just doing the players a service before then
>>96499878I mean, I'd say the full face-masks do a lot for some of them. Silk's a weird case where she doesn't really have much of a civilian life anyway so.
I made this yeva deck using EDH rec, cards I remember from back in the day, and also other tappedout lists.It was originally weaker. I was aiming for around 50-60 USD but it comes out to over 100 which is still alright I suppose. Here are some questions I have>I have lots of ramp spells and mana elves. Are they redundant or do I need even more?>do I need more card draw?>are my finishers (overrun effects) sufficient? I added Garruk for and extra overrun>is bow of nylea enough recursion?>What are my high-priority tutor targets with fauna shaman, woodland bellower and Mwonvuli beast tracker?>Do I need more artifact and enchantment hate?I'm proxxying the sol ring cause it's ridiculous how impossible they are to get when you can own one copy and resleeve it every time you play a different deck. I don't even own a copy, just a rules card with a neon green sticky note on it. even after dozens of reprints people buy a new copy for each of their 15 decks. Meanwhile 14 of them are sitting in the deck box doing nothing at any given time. You can only play 1 deck at a time!!!I have also chosen to not put in seedborn muse. It's expensive and seems too strong, almost unfun for everyone else. I'm afraid of the deck being too strong since Yeva is really strong and versatile. But I also fear that the one-dimensional strategy of mono green stomp can get kneecapped by designed-for-commander fuckery cards and control. And pic rel seems super power crept, and I can tutor it to protect my creatures with my beast tracker too. I remember when kalonian tusker was first printed. >>96499551Kek looks like 9/11
>>96499753Shut the fuck up fag no one cares that your coombait character isnt how you would've done it
>>96499901The amount of times in both spider-verse and the insomniac games that people take off their mask is really irritating. It's really bad in the games. Like Peter standing outside his house in Spidey gear but no mask. Also stuff like Heroes' Hangout>if we sit on a big building, no one will see usMaybe in a city without 8 million people.I think the worst was in the Miles Morales game where Miles removes his mask for literally no reason and then gets his ass kicked and a bunch of people see his face as he lays in rubble.
>>96499789I mean you have one card that can do that anon unless youre being a fag and tutoring it up it'll be fine.
>>96499927Actually I do care. Stop thinking everyone agrees with you, you narciissist
>>96499926https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/08-09-25-yeva/?cb=1757342166whoops
>>96499936Then your care is irrelevant. Which is even worse
>>96499861The author wasn't even trying to disguise this one.
>>96499753I mean to be fair GW is the most boring color pair in the game. There isn't much you can even do with it beyond lifegain, make creatures, and make creatures bigger.
>>96499948>>96499936it's nice to be nice guys
>>96499929>noooo my capeshit isn't serious bzns!grow up or consume better media
>>96499789>not commander damage>entirely dependant on your commander out (i assume you run 0 protection for it)>in colors that dont get extra turns>you still need more setup to loop Reaper Titan each turn>even if you do, first opponent dies 2 opponents after deckits a nice Aggro deck for non red and its certainly fun (aside from literally just looping the same two busted Vehicles)but there is so much time for your opponents to figure something out so its eh. Would be much more annoying to play against a Voltron that threatens to kill a single player on turn 3/4.if your pod cant handle it, they just dont like you, not your decks
>>96499935the only vehicle tutor i have is from father to son. i thought about putting in entomb but that'd be too degenerate, tutoring for reaver titan/parhelion ii to grave for B to rez with greasefang is cringe
>>96499959Sure. And I can at least get the creature pumping because her gimmick with her powers is she's really good and intricate with her webbing, to the point she can make clothes with it, so I dunno it's vaguely "she makes people better because she's giving them fancy webbing gear" is a 'thing' but it's not really anything at all.
@96499977
This thread is extra cranky today.
>>96500008It's mid day monday, all the normies are working, it's just the neets/incels and actual children online
>>96499959This but Orzhov the one trick pony.
>how do I feel about to put a really overpowered card in my deck despite me being against overpowered cards in play
>>96500017>mid dayIt's not even the afternoon yet.
>>96500029>outing yourself like this
>got all interaction in hand but no business after 6 turns>got nothing besides my commander on board>last 3 turns have been drop land, pass>no board compared to everyone else>finally draw some business>tap out to play bomb>bomb eats removal end of turn>get 22 commander damage trampling into my face>cant do shit because I just tapped out>commander has to jump in to save my ass>turn 7, no board, tapped out, with 2 opponents still having their turnI am still salty about this misplay of epic proportions. What the fuck was I thinking?!
>playing tokenslop>can't find a sac outlet>have 11 3/3 saprolings and two ping effects>decide to swing at the grixis player>he casts aetherizeI almost died for real
>>96500018Orzhov is the worst and it's not even close. Like 95% of the commanders do the exact same thing. Easily the worst color combo to build
>>96500284You could play Cleric tribal and put a nice lifegain combo in it because it fits the theme. Do note this will generate endless salt in here.
>>96500232How much interaction do you run dude
>>96500308one game too little, the next too much.
>>96500232>>tap out to play bomb>with no protection already in playRemind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer.
>>96500284I have multiple orzhov decks and they are very different from one another. Sissylesnia is the one trickiest pony in the game.
>>96500284Kinda why I was drawn to greasefang. arisocrats slop is so overdone zzzzz
>>96500284Looking at the top commanders for Orzhoz:>enchantress>death triggers and tokens>spell tax>vampire demon tribal>phyrexian/artifact tribal, incubators>recursion>enters gain, exit burn>blood tokens, angel/vampire tribal, mass reanimate>exile shenanigans>gets big on death triggers, explodes into tokens>zombie legends>doubling or draining damage on the end step>bat reanimator>vehicles>politics birdSeems pretty varied desu.
>>96500284Fucking this.>b-b-but what aboutYeah, I can also find niche commanders in Selesnya
Fact: There are more aristocrats Orzhov decks on edhrec than there are Selesnya counters.
I refuse to believe this is real
>>96500366Why? Did you think that shitty movie invented this character? He has been a Spider-Man character for decades.
>>96499979I meant entomb tutors cause thats how the commander works ya if youre not doing that then its cool cause its just something that can happen. My hazezon deck can get Godsire on the field as early as t3 as well but it aint doing it every game, has only happened twice desu
>>96500359And golgari beats out Selesnya for token decks.
>>96500373>implying they did not put him in for the memesUncle Benis is not even in the set
>>96500396No, they put him in because he is a significant character.
>>96500396habenis
>>96500396He's an actual Spiderman villain anon. They even put Jackal in
>>96500400>it's morbing time my dude is more important than Ben
>>96500437He certainly has far more appearances than Uncle Ben.
>>96500436The fucking dinosaur villain is in and he is very literal who. The only ones who really got excluded were the most no-names ever, Kingpin, and then any villain so recent they probably got introduced during development.
>>96500400are you saying a Legendary at uncommon rarity that has an activated ability that makes him almost unsuitable to run as your commander, is significat? im obviously not a comic fag, but ive never even heard from Morbius until that movie
>>96500459So you didn't watch the extremely popular 90's cartoon?
>>96500465no, most of the 90s are just an extremly hazy mess in my memories though
>>96500459so are you saying that every character that is significant in the story related to a block should have a card that becomes a significant presence in commander?
>>96500459also the activated ability is so generic
>>96500474Ok then you probably shouldn't act like he is an unknown. You being Gen Z is irrelevant.
>>96500486Probably because he wasn't in the set when it was 108 cards and the change to that probably happened all of a year ago. So a lot of characters got whatever random effect they could find.
>>96500478It'd be ideal ngl
>>96500437Your entire life is memes anon you should take an internet break.
>>96500539Your memes end here
>>96500494truly a meme character>>96500539says the spiderman fan
>>96500456But did Squibbly Jim make it in? Please tell me he did I don't know if I could CONSOOOM anymore unless my favorite guy, the Squibsler himself at least was on a sorcery or something.
>>96500560I do not like Spiderman actually. I dont really see how thats relevant at all though. Seek help anon.
>>96500567this but some magic character in a magic setBecause we've never seen a retard scream he hopes (character) appears again in RAVNICA 50
>>96500350>>96500284>tfw love orzhov and selesnya ur right though. Even if the decks feel different they function mostly the same. There was a time I had >Elenda, the Dusk Rose (aristocrats)>Athreos, God of Passage (rats)>Breena, the Demagogue (goodstuff)>I think it was kambal (lifegain) >Sythis, Harvest's Hand (enchantments, duh)>Arahbo, Roar of the World (wife's cat deck)>Karametra, God of Harvests (overrun w/ a storm line)>Selvala, Explorer Returned (prison)>Katilda, Dawnhart Prime (low power human tribal)all built at the same time, I started working on >Kellan, Daring Traveler (lower power prison)when I realized I was starting to run out of even remotely playable white cards and then counted the decks I had. I have to say, for my part, the orzhov decks blended together quicker than the selesnya decks.
>>96500396Benis :DDDD
>>96500580I mean I'm still waiting for a Kallist card.
>>96500577>buhhbut I don't even like spiderman pinky promise!then why would you even reply to my first post proudly defending Morbius, the trading card?>inb4 "it was not me"then fuck off
>>96500632>If you don't like something then you won't correct someone who is wrong about it and will continue to let them lie unabatedCan you explain this logic?
>>96500465>extremely popular 90's cartoon?what did this air on? I don't remember it. I remember xmen and batman having really popular shows. Shit man, I had a box full of batman figures, not a single villain. lmao. Batman was the hotness.
>>96500580I wish we would get Ravnica 50...
>>96500645FOX aired the show.
>>96500646And I hope Scrimblo Brimblo is in it. If they don't have Teysa I will be mad!This is totally different than a spider fag upset they didn't get Kingpin
>>96500649looking at the trailers on youtube, I think I'm starting to remember it. those 90s superhero shows were pretty dope. The animation really brings me back. >digimon in the recommendednot today memberberries I got shit to do
>>96500396Fug :DDDD
So, how does one get these cards with the spider symbol? They aren't in the main set.
>>96500748Those are from the welcome decks.
>>96500770Oh, so they are forever going to be like 80+ each?
>>96500748intro decks probablyI think the symbols are main set, intro decks, and dioramas; and the dioramas are easy because they're all fullart borderless
>>96500770>welcome decks>ub themed I know why they are doing this but fuck m8 thats grim
>>96500772no, those are the 30 card "how to play" decks they give to LGSs to give out for free
>>96500789Unless they are given an absurd amount all that will happen is some neckbeard will take them all and sell them on ebay.
>>96500770>mechanically unique cards in a welcome deckwhy do they do dumb shit like this? I started playing in 2015 and there was something people were looking for in those decks too, I had to go to like 3 lgs just to get an intro deck.
I am about to have my first game of mtg. It will be in the commander format and my opponent is going to use "slivers" with the quuen as his commander. I understand that slivers share their abilities among eachother. They say board wipes and specific single target destruction is best. My deck contains meathook massacre and toxic deluge. My (probably painfully noobish) question is: Will this be enough? Is there anything else for me to keep in mind?
Commander is a multiplayer game. Shill me a multiplayer commander. No group hug.I currently main pic related.
>>96500810>I am about to have my first game of mtg.>It will be in the commander formatgood luck>2 boardwipes vs sliversdont worry about winning, you wont. just try to have a good time.
>>96500810>I will play my first game of commander with a $300 commanderX: Doubt
>>96500819Do you just mean commanders that force other players to do things and participate? Every goad commander. All "choice" commanders like Eggman.
>>96500819It's multiplayer because the game turns into a 1v3 as soon as he drops on the board
>>96500819
>>96500828Why would you doubt that? My first commander game had someone drop a 200 dollar land.
>>96500632I replied to you because you're an embarrassing specimen of a "man" who clearly has not heard it enough.
>>96500828>edhg>reading comprehension problemsliterally every fucking timedo I have to whip out the daily affirmations again?
>>96500828As is: My opponent will likely use it. I use a proxy.
>>96500808>mechanically uniqueIs there another card im not aware of because nothing 2099 does is unique.
>>96500836By multiplayer I mean a commander which involves my opponents, yes.I got goad covered with rendmaw, who is the best goad commander in my opinion.>>96500838>>96500839Archenemy is a very shitty MTG format.
>>96500852I like the affirmations
>>96500776Possibly collector boosters as well? There are foil versions of these cards and I don't think intro decks have a random chance of a foil version of a card.
>>96500867no u
>>96500819Building Rendmaw right now, shill me some fun cards to add
>>96500861ur right I read the thread wrong.
>>96500867Then I'd recommend a voting commanderDavros, Eggman, Missy, the simic elf bitches like Elrond and Galadriel in LOTR. A friend of mine has a pretty good "painful choice" Davros deck where you are constantly forced to make decisions between bad and worse.
>>96500867As I see it, if you aren't a target you aren't playing edh.
>>96500748I've think some of them are. Some YouTubers have gotten Spider-Man early for shilling purposes and I have seen them pull pic rel from Play Boosters which was also a Welcome Deck card.
>>96500876CompostCulling RitualMeathook MassacreMassacre WurmEzuri's PredationBlack Market
>>96500886The ones with that symbol can appear in play boosters and are standard legal. The one with the spider symbol are welcome deck and possibly collectors boosters. They are not standard legal..
>>96500867Everything you do involves your opponents
>>96500878Your friend is a faggot for playing UB slop
>>96500889Do the bird tokens from Rendmaw trigger Compost since it says card? I thought tokens aren't considered cards
*open thread*Spiderman just like Assassin's Creed has no place in magic and will never be magic*close thread*
>>96500891Oh. So, I guess Welcome Packs are the only way to get them. Well, unless you can find them as singles.
>>96500903EPIC
>>96500903No need to get some emotional Stacy
>>96500914Assassin's creed fits in better than most considering how much of it is just assassins in historical eras MTG already aped. A pirate ship isn't really breaking immersion
Holy lazyThese are two different lairs.
>>96500903Based>>96500914Based>>96500926You're a fag lol>>96500932SpongeBob fits in better than most because every plane has water, and inanimate object have become anthropomorphic before the Maggie's just doesn't stop in this general
>>96500940>no value lairs again
>>96500810>will this be enoughDepends if your deck, whatever it is, can develop its own plan fast enough and/or remove high-value targets reliably enough to not need board clears. Board clears are generally something you play from behind, or when your deck focuses on a win condition that is not particularly harmed by sweeping the board, so you should only include more than a couple if your game plan revolves around them (or if your pod is just completely creature-happy). Targeted removal likewise you want to be careful with including too much of, because in a 4-player game a card which destroys only 1 enemy card is inherently putting you behind in card advantage (you and another player lost out, but the other two players benefitted without spending anything), BUT not having at least 2-3 pieces is even worse because so often 1 card (especially in a singleton format) is the difference between someone totally popping off and winning the entire game.Though if it's just you and your friend put as much single-target removal as you like in there it's nbd.
Say something nice about the man who destroyed UB and hat sets
>>96500950The Venom one seems alright
>>96500957thank you professor for allowing freaks of nature in your channel
>>96500894my friends have a tik tok infested short attention span. I like to involve them in my turn to keep them focused.
>>96500962ok but>"AAAHHGH!"do comicfags really?
>>96500972>I want normies in chargeThis is how you get slop
>>96500911you are correct. anon is most likely copying edhrec without a thought.
>>96500984>do comicfags really?Yes.
>>96500987the weirdos of yesterday are the normies of today
>>96500949You need help anon
>>96500819>ToymakerAbsurdly based
>>96500949>SpongeBob fits in betterit's on the same level
commanders for this feel?
>>96500957He did a really good job of selling me on the format. I played a few games before finding his channel and I liked it enough but it was the way he described how open the format was and how it was a celebration of unused cards from standards past that really got me excited. 11 years later I still look fondly back on those days, even if he's clearly lost the plot many many years ago along with WOTC.
>>96500984Yeah and what do you think you're gonna say when I put a million gigawatts through your body?
>>96501041zur the enchanter
>>96500876pic related is some secret sauce but just cute and doesnt help you win.sleeve up your overrun effects and one sided board wipes since the birds will carry you into the 1v1. you just need enough stuff to be able to alpha strike your opponent before he can.also your worst enemy is aristocrats abusing your birds as sac food. sleeve up blood artist is a counter play and focus his ass.
>>96499472>TQI've been frustrated before and that made me seem angrier than I actually was. I've never left the table though.
At least we can all agree that Izzet is the most based color pair in the game
>>96500940The doc ock sol ring could be kinda cool if you removed him from the art entirely.
>>96501073post a single fun izzet commander.this is a trick question. you cant.
>>96500911Oh yeah, compost doesn't work on the tokens, but you are gonna be pitching black cards into the graveyard plenty.
>>96500878thanks for the suggestion. who do you think is the strongest? the effects dont seem too strong.
>>96501082>Whenever a black card is put into an opponent’s graveyard from anywhere, you may draw a card.Do you read the cards you play/suggest?
>>96501078you lose
>>96501098Yeah, that's what the Painters Servant is for, dummy.
>>96501107ah, yes. the one creature in the 99 who brings the whole plan together. hiding behind your dozens of demonic tutors arent you?
>>96500952Thanks for the in-depth reply.This (https://moxfield.com/decks/xFUo0OhHhEi29HrqV2OhPQ) is the deck. The plan is to generate artifacts to then transform into creatures. It doesn't really have a single win condition. Other than that it uses lots of cards interacting with artifacts and has some other token generation abilities.As far as I can tell meathook and deluge are the only ones capable of boardwiping, but maybe I am overlooking something here. One final note is that he won't know what I'll be playing. (Though he has joked about viewing me as someone to play blue to piss people off.) I asked him to play his strongest deck first.In any case I'd be happy to hear what anons here would do in my situation. (aside from kms) What cards from the sideboard would you use?
I almost never splurge on art versions of cards, but this Ajani makes me feel things

>>96501078
This rendmaw discussion. Has been enjoyable. Might build him.
Ive been dissatisfied with my Zurgo list recently. It has done ok but I got kind of crushed by a couple zoomoids recently so Im reconsidering a lot of the list. Im at 92 cards cant decide on last 8 in Moxfield. I was sleeping on picrel for sure, I think I misread it before and thought this card itself had to attack to get the trigger. The fact its just on any declared attack is kind of nutty. Surprisingly one of the lgs potatos made me realize I was missing out on thisI also decided fuck it Im buying another Deadly Rollick
>>96501478Bros I saw an UB card and I am literally shaking
>>96501500>do thing draw cardBoring.>do thing draw card STORMSomehow soulful.
not mld btw
>>96501525Correct.
>>96501510me too but at least its not gay
>>96501078Its a little stilted but chaining an Innundate off of a 1 mana Treasure Cruise cast will never not be hillarious
>>96501505>I also decided fuck it Im buying another Deadly Rollickweak.
The in-universe gallery for Spider Man is up, btw. https://magic.wizards.com/en/mtgarena/through-the-omenpaths/card-image-gallerySome of the art is really nice, pic related is so good
>>96501078>nooo brudiclad isnt funwew
>>96501505>dissatisfied with ZurgoI got the Precon with nu-Zurgo too and it has been kind of overwhelming. I have made some crucial misplays in some games, and have to play him a bit different to my other Aggro Decks, but so far the peaks were pretty lackluster. It's certainly not great
>>96501549Ok now this set is pretty good
>>96501524The fact that it forces you to play fair instead of cheating costs is part of it too.
>>96501505Are you leaning more into aggro or aristocrats? If you're leaning on aristocrats I suggest Mirkwood Bats, Mahadi, Carmen, and Elenda the Dusk Rose. Mahadi is especially fucked up.
>>96501538Bro it was a gay UB character. I am shaking
>>96501580yes.
>>96501565I never got the precon, I just brewed my own.Idk if you are keeping it as a precon for the sake of having a precon but if you want a quick upgrade run the 1drop and 2 drop that have myriad. They are pennies to buy them. If you get them on curve its just free cards on T3 when Zurgo hits the field
>>96501500I know you fucker play it because >weird anime furry loli>harshest mistress>feet>kneel
>>96501174you're wrong. She's not in the closet about it.
>>96501605Actually I play it because the name is fun to say.Shantotto Tactician Magician, just try it.
>>96501549This does not look heroic is all I'm gonna say
>>96501549We will get it in paper at some point?
I've been building this fucker
>>96501602>>96501565I not only mistyped (meant to write "underwhelming") and also didn't mention that I heavily upgraded it, and it just ain't as fun that I thought it was going to be.Didn't help that I was going 4th in my last match against two other very ping/drain heavy decks. I need to get some more Playtests in, but I feel like it's going to get cut
>>96501652No. Maybe they'll use these versions for specific reprints down the line, but the whole set is definitively not getting printed in paper. There's no point to it, it would not sell well at all.
>>96501668Well, at least I can proxy it so I won't look at spiderman at my side of the table
>>96501651I think the heroes are the humanoids, the spider is just their pet.
>>96501549It looks like Bloomburrow and Thunder Junction slush art with some spiders hastily drawn in where necessary. Kind of funny.
>>96501575I had a lot of Mobilize triggers before (Thunders Decree, Dalkovan Packbeasts, Isshin)I didnt quite like it because there were games where I couldnt safely attack to get the mobilize triggers and that resulted in me getting locked down.Im cutting a lot of 3-drops in particular since Zurgo is played on 3.Also I had things like Dusk/Dawn which that card is actually kinda bad I think even though my deck was majority low power creatures.Ive seen Mahadi... could be good. Have you ran Kambal(?) The mayor from thunder junction?I think some combat triggers will still be part of the deck but maybe Im leaning more into aristocratsIm going to include picrel and also Reconnaisance to try and make attacking saferCarmen is interesting but I feel like I should run higher curve or/and selfmill with it.
>>96501657>that fucking artwork finally some FF I really enjoy.I wanted to build >bitchrel for the longest time, but Tellah seems more up my speed. Slinging some spells, and busting some balls with a huge X spell reminds me a bit of Izzet Gandalf.How do you cope with the sacrifice trigger? Do you just edge the table for a single finishing X Spell?
>>96501651Eh, it's a scary-looking spider but it's keeping those... Whatever the fuck they are safe, I guess is the idea. The Hero/Villain types are admittedly a bit arbitrary in these ones, but they generally try to show the Heroes looking friendly/helpful/protective, while the Villains are doing crimes or just looking like dicks.
>>96501657>UBGay
>>96499472>tqNo, though I've made otherwise leave
>>96501651Neither does Gwenom
>>96501695the alt art is betteridk I haven't finished yetI'm leaning on the side of just not having any 8+ spells in the deck
>>96501692Kambal is pretty good if you have a lot of different sources of token generation. He might go into my list but I'm not 100% sure since I haven't felt the need to change anything in it for months. Impact Tremors already does more work than him but redundancy is nice and passively getting stuff like treasures is very nice.
>>96501147Thought Monitor is an amazing card for artifact decksit's not hard to cast it for 3, 2 or even 1 mana, and a draw 2 for 2 mana with a 2/2 flyer into the bargain is totally sweet.Also, fabricate and diabolic intent- tutors are always good because it's like having extra copies of a crucial card, making it much easier to execute your deck's best linesI like the concept of your deck, sacrifice is cool and artifiacts are cool. Lotta fun cards in both archetypes, many of which you've included.But, in general I think your artifacts deck has too few artifacts in it and your sacrifice/creature tokens deck doesn't have enough creature token generation in it in comparison to the number of sacrifice outlets, and there's too many ways in which the artifacts and sacrifice sides don't synergise. Fortunately for you, there's a lot of cards that make artifact creature tokens like hangarback walker, so get some more of those in there. And you'll want more ramp, because ramp is usually great in commander, due to people being bad at threat analysis and prioritising people who have a mildly scary-looking board over the guy who's about to untap with 12 mana. Also because your commander lets you turn big mana into lots of cards, provided you have sacrifice outlets and token creature generation, and the latter also likes big mana. Get yourself a mind stone, maybe a gilded lotus and/or thran dynamo, etc.
>>96501664Post decklist? Id like to see
>>96501747Thought monitor is GOATedI run it in my doctor who artifact spam deck
>>96501745I mean that's the beauty of X-Spells, innit? They scale with the stage of the game >Using straight up 8+ mana spellsYea I wouldn't do that either lol
>>96500940lol I read that ephemerate art from left to right
>>96501651I can kind of see it. It's guarding the sunny happy place from whatever might come through the dark tunnel of evil.
>>96501780Ive never seen that card played and I cut it from my sweaty izzet deck before really ever playing it. It actually seems kind of great though. Any effect with exile I value highly
>>96499472>TQ: Have you ever gotten angry and left a table mid game?Angry no, bored yes.
>>96500962that's also terrible
>>96501549Jesus christ how horrifying
>>96501692>relying on mobilize I think that's my biggest issue right now too. I'm leaning more on aristocrats, and having tokens that don't just disappear EOT is straight up just better - even more so if I don't have to attack with my weenies. I will keep the super efficient ones, that will be it
Reminder that this guy got screwed by the writers.
>>96501147>>96501747Oh and since you're playing sacrifice, get a dictate of erebos and/or grave pactAbsolutely hysterical cards when you're about to crack a few token creatures open
>>96501688and it's still leagues better than fucking spider-man >>96501549yeup I'm proxying all of these
>>96501793Good news for you, because somehow blue is the second best colour at spot exiling
So i was under the impression that we got Hero tokens in FF because Spider Man would have Hero payoffs, but it doesn't have any. Instead it adds 50 more Hero cards and still no payoff. I guess the payoffs are coming from a yet unnanounced marvel set?
>>96501836Don't proxy. It causes an arms race
>>96501824Not it's because he's an abusive piece of SHIT
>>96501821Ya thats kind of where Im at with itI do want to try this bad boy. On 2nd thought, this card seems like it can do a lot
>>96501847Just like how Party is getting more support in the D&D set
>>96501824Maro keeps saying he'll show up eventually. It's been a while. When's he gonna be relevant? Maybe Lorwyn. I dunno, he could've just said "fuck humans" and retreated there.
>>96501549damn, this would have been a cool spider themed plain for paper
>>96501847The payoff is you being an absolute Hero paying off WotCs hefty licensing fees
>>96501852She killed his dog (or beast thing), anon
>>96501847Why does there need to be hero payoffs for hero tokens. Seems an odd thing to assume
>>96501868>Maro saidWhat the actual fuck is wrong with this community? He has proven himself to be the Tod Howard of WotC, who the fuck gives a shit what he says? I, for one, say you are going to shit a fat and heavy 40 pound gold bar tomorrow morning
>>96501880Nothing justifies VAW
>>96501886sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
>>96501779Gib list, if only out of morbid curiosity
>>96501909There are tons of tokens and creature types without any major support so no it does not
>>96501906not even raising your loved one as zombies to taunt you?
>>96501925>focuses on the token aspect >not the link between two otherwise wildly different sets in the same standard environmentwhatever you say anon
>>96501847They used Hero for FF because they were using it for Marvel and realised it worked to solve the conundrum of "they can't just be Warrior or Soldier because that doesn't flavourfully fit with how FF does Jobs (especially because one is named Warrior already), but they're all Heroes in FF", etc. It'll have pay-off in future Marvel sets I'm sure, but as is it's just a typeline thing.
>>96501549>https://magic.wizards.com/en/mtgarena/through-the-omenpaths/card-image-galleryThis is such a fucking disaster lmao. As other anons said, it's a bunch of slush art and hastily commissioned spider slop. I'm sure OTJ has plenty of slush art from the mini set that was planned, which was trimmed down to a handful of "Big Score" bullshit.Between the lack of interest in the Spider-Man set, to this dumpsterfire of a release that will pollute Arena for years to come, I hope this becomes a moment of financial disaster for Hasbro from which they learn.
>>96501824The true problem is that green is the "good guy" color and having a strong white dude as the iconic in a set as a good guy doesn't fit with Hasbro's plans at all.
>>96501918https://moxfield.com/decks/ap7OgtxA7k-BN-hh2KYh6w
>>96501934>and creature typesKavu have existed for pretty much all of magic and have like 6 cards that support the creature type.

>>96501730>oldfart Wizard doing the spell castingno man, he cute
>>96501880yeah, probably because he was spending more time with it than with her or some shit
>I like the set now that I saw the in universe versioncringe
>>96501949I also hate that this set means we're not getting any proper spider cards for the next 5 years
>still no Ur-Spider

>>96502123It's digital only so who even gives a fuck
>>96502191>I like bad cards and mechanics when they have my prefered scrimblo on itcringe
They should sell the UW version at an upcharge, people would pay it.
>>96501549>Call backs to Bloomburrow, Duskmourn, Kaldheim, New CapennaIWchads we are so fucking back. Might even throw some dollars at some gemmies now.
> year of our lord 2025> still no skeleton tribal
>>96502200I wouldn't.
>>96502208We WILL get one in 2026 I will rip one of my cards if we don't
>>96502200They literally would not be able to sell enough of it to even justify printing the cards.
>>96501975what does that have to do with tying together two ub sets?
>>96502223Everyone hates UB and the set is hated exclusively due to that. If they had released it as the arena version it would have outsold final fantasy
>>96502200the best part about edh is that I haven't bought new cards since 2022 and so far it's been just as fun.
>>96502236Press X to doubt
>>96502248look at this thread you retard
>>96499472This art is peak comfiness holy shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyAOOza9czcthe LORD had spoken
>>96502291Why do these fucks have their headlights on in the day?
Real, I'm not against UB or Spiderman, this set just doesn't look good. There are maybe a handful of single that I might be interested in putting in decks and even a smaller amount of art treatments that actually look good.The Arena UW scramble seems almost more annoying to me cause maybe two or three cards have actually neat art that's going to be stuck in the Arena ghetto forever.As much as I find Prof annoying, I happen to agree that the real problem with the set is that there's no real story to it. FF might have been diving through decades of plot, but major beats and characters mostly all covered. For this one they're missing recurring obvious characters (and not just side characters, like major villains featured in recent films) in favor of a fucking bagel and a pidgeon. Like I get we want less legendaries, not more, but come the fuck on man.
>>96502271I ain't doing it but damn it felt good.honestly felt better than mana crypt, cause mana crypt always felt scummy to me. >t1 land into diamond discarding a fetch>t2 land into crucible >set on lands for the rest of the game even through mldwell, it was fun to draft. maybe ill play cube more.
>>96502236>Everybody hates it>And by everybody, I mean the vocal minority of people who already like to complain
>>96502311Truck drivers do for safety. IDK maybe they exist in a shitty burocracy that demands dumb shit from reasonable people.
>>96502291This rubs me the same bad way as the Mercedes Benz Collaboration in Mario Kart 8
>>96502318As someone who's very Mich for Spider-Man, I agree with this. The characters I wanted to build have uninteresting cards. There's a decent number of cards I do want for the 99 of various decks, but no buildaround to get excited for.
>>96502318I feel like Spider-Man's problems as a set are, largely, based on the fact they made a shift from small to not-as-small in size, along with the fact that I don't think they really had somebody with a deep love for the comics in charge. These feel like they're trying to go "hey, you know Spider-Verse right", but with the comics characters in their place, which to an EXTENT I'm okay with (I know people would be upset if Spider-Man India wasn't in for example, same with 2099) but it sort of feels like there's not a huge amount of reverence for the comics outside of very minor bits here and there. I think Maro heading up the next Marvel set will be the true test, honestly, because like him or not, the man DOES love Marvel. I don't feel like the SPM set lead really loved Spider-Man. He probably LIKED it, and enjoyed Spider-Verse as a movie and whatnot, but still.
>>96502318>There are maybe a handful of single that I might be interested in putting in deckssobasically just like you knowevery other MtG set known to man, Mr. Commander Playerman?
>60 dollars for ten basicsMMMMM YES MASSA WOTC
>>96502337Honestly shocked we didnt get a mariokart SL for aetherdrift
>>96502370Nintendo would likely demand even more absurd shit from wotc than marvel.
>>96502362didnt they do these already? I mean they are so similar
>>96502375It's explicitly meant to be doing something Magic's done with Marvel's characters framing it. Same artist and everything.
>>96502375They're the same idea. Raised foil oil slick cards but this time with Venom.
>>96502362>TEN basicsfew, thats literally double to what we used to.And, you know, since SLs are normally 40$, having double the amount means they should actually cost 80$.By costing 60$ you are literally SAVING money, my dude
>>96502375these make me cum, the Venom ones suck because of the huge colored emblem
>>96502383It does cost 80>60 dollars>then 12+ shipping>then another 8 tax
>>96502361Man get your shit off my dick, I drafted FF, Duskmourn and Neon Dynasty. I even bought some extra packs like a retard for FF.I can count the number of singles I could see as playable in my decks for this set on one hand.
>>96502382>this time with venom>heres a cool thing with a lame thing stapled to itno thanks
>>96502392Fucking hell, I always forget ameriturds always have to add tax AFTER all that shit.And here I was thinking WotC charging 35€/45€ per secret lair in the EU shop was them just being greedy cunts.
>>96502417Tax differs by region
>can't figure out how to make my deck better without ruining the entire feelingMan...
Also I usually tip 5$ for purchases like this. Its polite
>>96502397don't forget Spider-Man is a micro set with lots of fluff
thank god I'm an arenafag because the UW set mogs spiderslop
>>96502417I bought the sonic lair at 50 and it cost me 68 after WOTC's absurd shipping costs and my state sales tax. It is really wotc's shipping that kills it. There's no reason 5 cards cost 12 dollars to send domestically.
>>96502461Bad shit cards are bad regardless of the scrimblo brimblo on them
>>96502208>>96502216you just got 2 tho. jangle bangle bones and the xi-li ping pong
>>96502362>>96502375>play oil slicks>anon is now going to ask across the table>"oh are those the new venom basics"guess I gotta stop playing them now to avoid this aren't I
>>96502510lol get rekt
>>96502510I think they refer to this as "cannibalizing" and boy fuckin' howdy are wotc going to learn the meaning of that word.
>>96502530wait this card is almost playable
>>96502537>Sorcery>Requires two targets>Buffs one of them
>>96502461Cool it with the anti-semitic remarksno don't lol
>>96502544yesalmost playable but notits like you guys don't actually speak English
>>96502551Cool it with the feminist movie references
>>96502558now THAT'S a hot take

>>96502530>>96502537Better than generous gift
>>96502567>edgarhopefully the orzhov one
>>96502471Serves you right for supporting this inSANICty
>>96502575Well... that one's in there too!
>>96502567I was gonna make fun of you but he's almost down to 15bux nowadays and that's fucking insane. I hope you enjoy your pile of cancer, bro. We all deserve to have one deck that just pops the fuck off
>>96502581
>>96502372It's kind of strange to me that Nintendo doesn't have its own TCG desu. You'd think Smash would be a good baseline for it.
>>96502567why are you sweating? you probably will never actually leave the house to play itbut make sure to take pictures of it and post them in this thread several times a week
>>96502579lol
>>96502567How much is that in real currency
>>96502588>You'd think Smash would be a good baseline for it.I've seriously been saying this for almost 20 years, now. Boggles the fucking mind, dude
>>96502588Well the time to do it was before mash-up fatigue.
>>96502603Like 8000 USD going by their economy
>>96499548MTG's never had a good story either, it's a match made in heaven
>>96502583I paid 21 cus I wanted this version (i'm a sucker for the custom borders from this set)But yeah i don't feel too bad about it, my LGS is full of people running 3.5 decks with cancer like rhystic, they can handle some vampires.>>96502593Cus i never spent this much at once on cards before i'm kinda new still...>>96502603Idk like 220 USD maybe?
>>96502628Forgot pic oops
>>96502636Aah yesthe Edgay Makeluv version
>>96502605It's weird since Fire Emblem had a pretty decently successful TCG on its own developed by Intelligent Systems. Nintendo wouldn't even need to worry about an outside company mishandling their IP. The only thing I can think of is that there would be some self-competition with Pokemon.
>>96502646I think he's cool but yah the original art is better, i just massively prefer this card design
Yaaaas queen
>>96502628>Cus i never spent this much at once on cards before i'm kinda new still...a fool and his money lmao
>>96502664PUSSY BLAST
>>96502671Proxyfag?
>>96502677ALWAYS try before you buy.
>>96502664pure goonslop
>>96502664braaaaaaaaaaaaaap
>>96502687Nahh vampires are my favorite tribe, i played casually as a teen back during og innistrad and loved them there too so it has like nostalgia value for me.I'm sure I'll take out a few cards here and there over time but i won't regret the purchase overall
>>96502713>he said
>>96502530if they didn't learn it with set vs draft boosters they never will
>>96502537I love it in my nu-volrath
>>96502664so like this is almost certainly better than Valorous Stance right? valorous has been a pet card of mine since it was printed. I guess they do different things.
>>96502785that's a list I'd be interested to see
>>96502791hexproof vs indestructible toughness vs powerslightly different
>>96499472This set is so ass. I hope it spectacularly flops so WotC never does something like this again but I fear the funkopop millenial redditards won't let that happen. They stopped buying the comics and going to the theater to see the shitty movies, hopefully they're out of money.
>>96502802when fate reforged first came out I'd have said indestructible was way better but now im not so sure. and I think i'd rather have p4 than t4.
>>96502803I C wut u did ther
>>96501549Damn it. All this Capena themed reskins really make me wish we'd revisit there again.
>>96502603card prices differ WAY too much between us so no telling without a decklist
>>96502628>3.5doesn't existanyone saying they want a 3 that can punch up to 4 is a pubstomper
>>96501549I'm a little surprised by how well villain works with the Duskmourn themed things.
>>96502844As per the bracket introduction themselves you are wrong.
>>96502664>that slush artJesus Duskmourn could have been so much worse
>49 mana sourcesguys this deck feels great to play
>>96502801https://moxfield.com/decks/I9j4WAxx0E6J4m4fpgQ1fQit's still full of goodstuff so nothing too special. love tinkering with it often too since almost every set gives him new toys
>>96502891You got a polder for all that flooding?
Should I replace land drops with one-drops that fix future cards? Early on it helps grab a land, and later it gets rid of clutter. How does this affect curves and all that?
>>96502866brb, putting mld in my decks again to play with a bunch of 3s then since they want it so bad
>>96502915you bet broer
>>96501549I like the theming on some of these. Wouldn't have minded seeing them hit paper too.
>>96502803It won't lmfao
>>96499789I've played greasefang it's not actually good
>>96502825New Capenna does not fit magic any better than spider slop
>>96500366It's Morbin time!
>>96502992Matt Smith also has a card in magic. So you can really morb.
>>96502812too many things get around indestructible, now removal creep has gone upp/y is probably more deck and archetype dependent, but the "remove on sight" ones are all 2/2 or have small stats to balance out their effects
>>96502966This is a fucking house, first proxy I'll ever print and slot into my rakdos hand disruption pile. Thanks anon I must have missed it on my go through the gallery!
>proxies are now ok
>>96503032*pyroclasming intensifies*
How do I improve my deck without stuffing it full of cards like Demonic and Vampiric Tutor? I kinda want to add Xiahou Dun, Yawgmoth's Will, maybe 0 cost creatures to keep in the theme. https://moxfield.com/decks/0wHZMe-YNUaE6xowr4IYIA
>>96503046yes. we are in a post magic card world.
>>96503046Always have beenniggers of the hood deserve none of your money
>>96503046Proxies have been fine since The Walking Dead chump, deal with it.
>>96503067>>96503064So you don't mind if I bring me 5000 dollar proxied CEDH deck? :)
>>96503075I don't give a shit if you spent 5 million or 50p on your CEDH deck anonIf you're playing competitively you should expect all the cards in the game to be available to you and your fellow playersOtherwise it's not competitive it's just bank wars
>>96503075of course not, lets have a good game
>>96503075I wish people proxied cEDH decks at my locals. I'd proxy one too. I've been wanting to try cEDH Tayam.
>>96503130>No only my proxies are okProxying for gameplay is more valid than proxying because ME NO RIKEY SPOODER GUY
>>96503046Proxies have been fine since WotC decided they didn't want to reprint Tolarian Academy.
>>96503137read it again retard
>>96503137based retard
>>96503137E S LSL
>>96502925I'd rather not miss a land drop than have a 1/1 for 1
>>96502925Lands are stronger than this garbage. Not liking lands is low IQ. Stop being low IQ
>>96502925Unless you're playing 40+ lands or are using a cEDH manabase don't cut lands.
>>96503075this is a bracket 1 table, sorry.
>>96503259what does bracket 1 even look like?
>>96503137IncorrectProxying spider cards is about sending a message
>>96503269we call em shoebox decksyou take whatever cards you have lying around and put them in a deck, hopefully you found a legendary creature otherwise we probably let you play a planeswalker or you can just choose your color identity and have no commander.
>>96503214>>96503233>>96503242Aight. I’ll cut some top curve cards for utility 1-drops instead.Last week I played for the first time in over half a year and I couldn’t keep up with the FF UB cards on a zoomer table. Power creep is real, need more utility and filtering.
>>96503290is that message that you, for some reason, need to play with these cards at all?
>>9650329390% of the FF set is hot garbage and not powercreeping anything el tardo
>>96503293I'd be looking into draw engines and functional consolidation instead of low drop filters.
>>96503307Yes. I need to put Rent is Due in my burakos deck except Im going to have the local drawjew draw me some art of Teysa Karlov with oversized tits amd her hand out making demands of a ghost
>>96503292>>96503269It looks like this; https://manabox.app/decks/adEGR349S9Gj7uqlNImKWwI built this deck purely off cards I pulled, it's my bracket 1 deck. I like lesbians and I love them kissing things that they shouldn't.
>>96503392Holy based
>>96503046Proxies have been fine since WotC themselves printed proxies and sold them for hundreds of dollars
>>96503401dont say based look at the decklisttheres no theme, theres really no restriction shit isnt even bracket 1
>>96503422Brackets are fake and gay
Is Explorers of the Deep still considered the strongest precon deck? My wife has upgraded Elven Empire and a Talion faerie deck I made her, now she wants a merfolk one. Looking through it, it doesn't seem like it needs many upgrades to be strong and is already borderline bracket 3.
>>96503432and you are dumb, what else is new?
>>96503422>Looks at the end tab>Says it follows all the rules>Double check>It doesIt's bracket 1 anon, stop crying about it.
>>96503451>Winning is not the primary goal here, as it's more about showing off something unusual you've made.so uh, what's unusual about your deck?
>>96503439If she wants Merfolk it's the option. You'd be building that precon from singles if you tried to make a Merfolk deck on your own. I'd say there are a few precons that are stronger that have come out recently but the Merfolk one would still put up a fight against any of them.
>>96503460The fact that I have a pair of lesbians kissing on all sorts of beasts, monsters, and non-human men, which gets them all rilled up and powerful. That's the theme.
>>96502844proxies have been ok ever since the Championship gold border decks. And they still are fine by WotC, if they cost a thousand dollar
>>96503478you should work on that theme otherwise it just looks like you made a bog-standard counter deck then made up a story about how it's actually 2 brackets lower than it should be
>>96503519>championship gold border deckspeak mtg desu
>>96503539I bought the one with spirit monger, still love that guy, sad he's unplayable garbage in magic 2025
>>96503562my brother and I used to get them every yearshit, im pretty sure those are the only actual magic decks he ever played. his idea of magic must have been pretty sweaty lol
>>96503478>my theme is angle shooting bracket one decks
bring back the best birds art
>>96503450
>>96503638I see no problem with this
>>96503475What recent precons are stronger than it?
where can i proxy the spiderman set?all the images are up but i think id want the formatting fixed so it doesnt look like an arena card and use a higher res for the artif theres no options im thinking of remaking just the specific singles i want in cardsmith
>>96503439I'd be shocked if the gay kings precon wasn't still the strongestsure its been >checks watch fucking 7 years?!nvmhttps://www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/1525440#paperI remember keeping it unmodified for almost 2 years and snaking wins left and right.
>>96503526>bog-standard counter deckNaw. How many people are playing a pair of lesbians, with the explicit purpose of having them kiss not-you? Not many, I'll tell you.>>96503586>Implying I'm trying to angle shoot>Implying I don't get invited to B1 games frequently>Implying people don't have fun playing against the Zoo LesbosDoes it feel good being bitter all the time?
>>96503615>Edward P Beard JrI'm so sorry anon
>>96503638If I'm already playing oops all homophones, I'm not going to leave out fetches for no reason.
>>96503662Mardu Surge and Counter Blitz come to mind instantly.
Not liking the spider man set but liking the same cards with different art is analogous to trannyism. Facepaint doesnt change the essence of the card. Youre all bugchasers
>>96503756Not caring about appearance is analogous to tranny worship. Details change the essence of the card. Youre all bugchasers
>>96503422>has 2 card infinitethis is not B1 alright
>>96503756Nice try, nosewater
>>96503756the difference is troons will never be a woman. but jotc planned and commisioned art for the arena cards to match established planes and mtg lore. they already said they reserved the right to reprint the IW versions. But i dont want to wait around for random IW reprints seeding into precons like this card from Dr Who
>>96503615I'm still partial to the Ravnica one, the original and the hummingbird one.
>>96503829Woah woahUB is bad but we all agree the Doctor Who set is amazing and an exceptiob
>>96503392>literally just a regular Halana and Alena deckdefinitely not bracket 1This is bracket 1https://moxfield.com/decks/BK3hBiMqlkKw6hO4XHLdOA
>>96503876explain imo
>>96503790>the accidents change the essenceNo they absolutely do not this is grade school philosophy right here. Read Aristotle hot fucking damn.>>96503829And these will never NOT be spider man cards.>>96503810>rosewater is mad people are engaging with magic productDo not engage with this set in any way shape or form. Stay away from Magic.
>>96503846this but FF
>>96503756>Gay Pride Flag infront of the Kölner Dom
>>96503886The theme is Keene misreading portals as gates and it's naturally weaker than any precon because portal cards are designed to be terrible and because you can't run a single artifact
man I rlywanna but these autoinclude goodslop cards like toski in my dicks but the synergistic cards are just too fun and enable all kinds ofshonaniagnans
>>96503912Find the nearest therapist you can and book yourself in twice a week for the foreseeable future anon. You are braindead.

What are more mono black or artifact cards like this or Uba Mask that will screw up combo and control players?
>>96503898Based. If he can't draw me any cards I feed him to my Skullclamp.
>>96503974>after their untap>comboYeah in response to that trigger im just gunna blow my load and win thanks
>>96503974Can't combo if you aren't alive
>>96503987First turn dark ritual in to Bottomless Pit. Good luck assembling your jank combo, bitch.
>>96503998Amen, brother
>>96503756Actually the totally shit set of unusable cards is good when it has the scrimblo brimblo I like
>>96504067>actually this man is sexy when he puts on a pair of tits I like

What anime character should I make a proxy of for this card
>>96504112Wiz from Konosuba.
>>96504112Marcille, it fits both the dungeon and reanimation theme
UB when?
>>96504139MELTMANWITH THE POWER TOMELT
>>96503678there's magic set editor, but it's a little spotty with what exactly gets a high res frame.also unfortunately that's as high res as the art is ever going to get.
>>96504120>>96504129I used to think the creature type had to matter but wotc has made it their official stance that it doesn't matter, do whatever you want.
>>96504161They have never mattered for skin cards
>>96504161Marcille is half a human anyways
>>96504173And her kid will be 75% human.
>>96504195huge if true
I'm laughing for real right now
>>96504090>player uses instant speed removal during their main phase>to destroy their own Black Market Connections>while at 26 life
>>96504278So it got bit by a radioactive bear trap...?
>>96504297Yes.
>>96504328Neat.
>>96504112Obviously Marcille, this is the proxy I'm gonna go with.
>>96499926>>96499940ANSWER ME PLEASE
this art looks like a 00s point and click adventure game

>>96504391They hate magic players
>>96499926Okay from the top>rampId say its a good amount for what youre doing>drawId say you're good if anything 1-3 more.>finishersWith the budget yeah, there are some budget craterhoof style cards you could pick up though for extra oomph and keeping in with creatures.>bowNo. Repeatable is nice but it is bottom and its only 1 out of the 99 I try to go for 3-5 pieces. You do have EWitness as well so halfway there.>removalIn my opinion yes, this depends more kn your local meta, because i dont know do you need more hate? It might be wasted on your pods.
>>96504278>>96504348why didn't they make the theme of the set that some retarded simic experiment spilled out into the streets of ravnica and were causing a ruckus
Fact of the matter is that anyone who plays MTG arena deserves this shit. Imagine paypigging for a game that doesn't give you perks for buying irl packs. Pokemon had the right idea with those codes inside packs, no idea if they’re still doing it though
>>96504456This artist sucks and ruins all his art by drawing every waifu cross-eyed.
>>96504456What do you mean?They're getting the superior version of the set with all the goyslop capeshit removed, it's us who are losing.
>>96504456bruh I'd take the arena versions of all of these cards in a heartbeat over spider pig and hot dogs in new york
Say something about my pods most obscure edhrec commanders
Is is ok to run a serras sanctum running only 7-8 enchantments ?
>>96504484landfall slopcheesy meme deckfunny turbofog deck what does this even do/10
>>96504468I like Spider-Man more than the ugly arenaslop
>>96504484I worked on a Bill list id like to see yours because I dunno. Horses suck changeling suck the payoff is real good but like just dont block him. I suppose some weird voltron thing where he kinda demands blocks i dunno I'd like to see!
Btw this is the vampire deck i put together and ordered, any feedback or suggestions pls?I didn't wanna spend on a more expensive mana base and good tutors yet tho, i'll probably get those later.moxfield.com/decks/BcnXtMXyeUqKydslNL-3gw
>>96504512https://archidekt.com/decks/12524328/bill_ferny_we_sell_horses_here
>>96504522I can't really speak to the deck's specific card quality since Edgar Markov is medical grade ambien and I suck at evaluating tribal but good on you for playing the right amount of lands. Maybe consider some more of the Ixalan Orzhov vampires like Clav and Carmen. I'd also chuck the bad tutors into the trash if you're playing bracket 2 and play either bursty card draw spells or draw engines instead. Now that I'm looking at it you could use more draw in general. Clav, Preacher of the Schism, and Pact of the Serpent play well with the tribal theme and burst draw like Night's Whisper, Diresight, and Read the Bones are always pretty good and more reliable than the Village Rites clones. Black Market Connections is also free advantage.
>>96504484Ashaya and Laelia aren't obscure. They're just normally played in the 99.
>>96504484I always forget Questing Beast is legendary.
>>96504603is laelia only a brawl thing? because she's one of the most infamous combo commanders there
>>96504597Oh i have Night's Whisper and wanted to use it, I forgot to put it in when i made this list lolYou're probably right tho i could still use some more draw, i think i'd like to keep the village rites-types tho because they're basically free with Edgar constantly genning tokens.Thanks for the advice tho i think i'll order the creatures you mentioned too and play around with them, see how i like them.
>>96504441because then they wouldn't get to use all their garbage leftover artmaybe they'd even have to *shudder* make NEW ravnica art
fleem
>>96504441They are probably afraid of going back to ravnica right now due to the flop that was murders.It does make the most sense though, have a bunch of spider mutants + it's a big city with large skyscrappers.
choose your fate, /edhg/.afro-hispanic parentsor lesbian parents
>>96504768I choose gatos
>>96504441Probably to not have an outsized amount of cards set there if there are going to be more sets like this, as there likely will be for future Marvel sets or other UB that they can't get digital rights to for whatever reason. This way they can come up with art and ideas from all over without being held down to a story or one particular plane. It's almost like core sets of yore, with cards from everywhere, made to blend in rather than be its own thing.
They should go back to Mirrodin and show what's going on there now.
>>96504868It's probably full of gays and troons and all the different factions compete in a yearly pastry baking competition to solve their differences.
>>96504768>2 gay moms>2 gay dadsWhy are woke cultists obsessed with pushing this meme?
>>96504900You're not wrong :(I started with the scars of mirrodin block so i'm really nostalgic for it, it's a shame they'll probably either never revisit it again or ruin it in some way.
>>96504911to be fair it probably happens more than one gay mom and one straight momor one gay mom and one gay dadstatistically speaking
>>96504911Because that's the whole point.
>>96504938Anon, did you finish Scars of Mirrodin block? Did you see how it ended? Because I may have some bad news for you...
Return to Caliman when? the gun ban isn't really a thing anymore anyways
>>96504998I mean yeah i know they got rekt and then recently the plane got mostly destroyed too, but in the lore there were some mirran survivors before the end of the new phyrexia block so maybe they could asspull something about the survivors rebuilding the world and fighting off phyrexian remnants or whatever.
>>96502983I specifically want something that's not super good
>vehicle deck>can't run lumbering worldwagon
>>96504526Looks great i may revisit it. I have an old thada adel deck i never play anymore that has cyberdrive/march of machines as a wincon
>Was hesitant to go out to LGS tonight>Go anyway>Have a really kickass game where I draw half my deck in monogreen and find some trades I was looking for (Textured Foil Alania) Reminder that its important to take the plunge on socializing, even if you don't necessarily feel like it.
>>96505004They don't get that hyper specific anymore. You just get "dominaria" all rolled together.
>>96505142We just got a set about murder cases at some house
>>96505045Why does this shitass card have 6 different artworks?
>>96505156it's an amazing card thoughbeit with the price kept small due to being overprinted
>>96504701>spend 3 sets pushing Loot as a marketable mascot>hated by almost everyone>randomly release Fleem to replace some copyrighted marvel fucker>instantly becomes a meme
Guns on mtg cards are kino, UW or UB.
Magical wand-guns are cringe.

Pds big mad
Time for a new thread
UB would cooler if it was like 1x per year and only a major franchise that actually matches Magic's vibe somewhat (LOTR, 40k, FF).
>>96505341You just read the card to meIm asking in what situation is this good?What deck drops 4 power of creatures before it wants to ramp?
>>96505571>>96505571>>96505571
>>96505552it ramps on etb and attack
>>96505552The same deck that shrugs and casts their Farseek when not on curve regardless, because ramp is ramp. Vehicles are often not particularly cheap to cast, and big creature good.It's also the same cost to cast as a lot of ramp spells, and does much the same. Getting ramped again the next turn if you happen to have a pair of 2 power creatures you don't feel the desire to swing with is gravy on top and buffs its power further. And again the next turn if it survives, etc.
