Thread Question
>tq
Was taking an old casual deck apart, was about to chuck it into the trash as I remember all the cards were worth like 10 cents a pop. Thanks to hobbit and coomander, this little nigga is $9.
>>98725394This is scarier than anything from Duskmourne
>>98725394TQ: Unironically, Chainsaw.
>>98725450Thats strange i guess you could tap all your dwarves to pump an evasive creature but wouldnt you just swing with everything most of the time?
>>98726174I feel like it's situational in most cases. Like, you could swing; but end up getting Aetherize'd and fucking yourself over; but that's about it
>>98726016That uses Rev counters. :)
>>98726208Haha maybe see if these sites will buy them for more than 9
>>98726174You get additional damage if they have vigilance.
>>98725450Yeah, Magda has had that effect on dwarf cards.
So after Elspeth's pretty good comic, Jace's kind of meh comic and the Liliana one on the horizon (covering the Innistrad story that we never got), they're doing a bigger one for Teferi... Just sort of as a whole, I think going through his whole history with the framing device of Quint learning about him. Could be fun, though the Jace comic didn't enthrall me https://www.polygon.com/mtg-mage-of-zhalfir-dark-horse-comics-teferi-preview/
>>98726174Settle the Wreckage has brain damaged a generation of players.
Listening to Commander players say a Swords to Plowshares that doesn't target and has split second wouldn't be that good because it's still "just" a 1-for-1 and "only" hits creatures. Some people really are dumber than AI.
>>98726829Even as a commander player, those people are really dumb. Granted, they probably haven't played any card game before, but it seems like they only really care about spectacles and all-or-nothing removal
>>98726854They're here for "tap - WOW" moments with their friends. The anti-thesis of the competitive 60 card game.Like an Alien facehugger they've replaced magic from the inside out.
Why are you still holding unto a corpse?
>>98726928Just wait until Trek is released.Straw. Back. Broken.
Proxying all my decks.If the set is good, I'll buy a pack before proxying all the cards I want.
>>98726928I don't. I sold my decks shortly after OG Zendikar. Haven't played paper much since.
>>98726928I'm here just for the laughs, Jim
>Check pauper, finally praying they finally lost>Instead, they won againFUCK!!! Being a memedern, sTRANSdard and pioqueer player is an endless humiliation ritual, my izzat is being drained!I wish I was white and european so I could play good formats instead of indian shitskin formats
Pauper will win even more when they add it to Arena.
>>98727160>pauper>before modern>before cummanderwhen we start talking seriously?
>>98727193they need to add a shit ton of cards for any of the 3, which they seem unwilling to do
>>98727193Well the difference is Pauper already had events on Arena. Just no permanent queue.
>>98727220"Pioneer" on Arena is missing 2287 cards. That didn't stop them from calling it a day.
>>98727230Any format that doesn't require rare wildcards has no future on Arena.
>>98727244is it really that hard for them to just add cards? seems like it shouldnt be at this point
>>98727259except as an event that you have to pay to enter lmao
>>98727160They asked the italians and they just answered with "We don't condone kike tricks, aus raus" so they won't sorry cuck.
>>98727220Ironically vintage is the closest format to being totally playable on arena, but it also has the smallest cardpool of cards being played in top decks. Modern is pretty close too, but this is just the cards being played regularly, it would take a lot more to get them fully online so you could just brew whatever you wanted for those formats.
>>98727395if WOTC were competent they would just add all those cards in one big update, delete historic, and add those formats as options
>>98726829It actually wouldn’t be that good compared to all the broken kikery nonwhite colors get. But don’t you worry your little yamulka covered bald spot kike, JOTC shekel suckers won’t print anything powerful for white anyway. Not in standard at least.
>>98727440Keep hating white, kike.
>>98727160Pauper is FLOURISHING with the addition of Dispatch to help affinity (notoriously struggling deck)
>>98727425Ha ha you were forced to read my post because I used your image.
>>98726829what card?
did pauper win?
>>98727476A shitty custom card, not a real one.
Xitter's translation feature has offended the entire Japanese Pauper playerbase by translating "Pauper players" to "poor players"https://x.com/MagicOnline/status/2102871550831849619
SEXOOOO SEXOOOO SEXOOO WITH WITCH SEXOOOOOOOOO
>>98727780r/asianmasculinity
I'm going to pre-release tomorrow! Wish me luck!
>>98726829Are you mentioning them being commander players to explain why they are retarded when it comes to card assessment for real formats or was the discussion about that hypothetical card in commander? A 1 for 1 in multiplayer formats is definitely a lot less good and the low CMC matters a lot less given the higher life totals and prevalence of ramp.A 2W Instant that said 'exile target creature. Investigate' would be better than Swords in Commander games despite being completely unplayable in everything other than limited when it comes to real formats.
>>98727495No. Zeta broke them. Cut down saw a 700% price hike.
>>98727941Same, this set actually looks really cool. Everyone on here is always so negative. Fuck you negative Nancies.
>>98727972>it's balanced because it's sorcery or something like that
>>98728075It's balanced because it's 2 color and does nothing the turn it's cast unless you already have a board presence. The food is bad, and the treasure is tapped. The only good thing is create 3 artifacts for 2 mana.
>>98727972>we must sell alchemy packs
>>98728072cancer
>>98728140
>>98728158Just kill the weeds already we don't care about your garden.
>>98728049To provide context for their particular flavor of retardation because I don't think even Arena players would say this after eating 3 Doom Blades in one game.
Play premodern
This, but Pauper.
>>98728049Commander players valuing 3 mana removal over 1 mana removal just because it might get them a card for 2 extra mana would explain a lot about why they keep getting raped by combos and bombs.
>>987284344 extra mana lol
>>98728434Commander is self balancing, once someone combos off it's 3 vs 1.
>>98728489I was counting it as 3 then 2 extra for the clue, since it doesn't need to be paid at the same time.>>98728500It really doesn't help if everyone's stupidly running 3+ mana or sorcery-locked removal because the game is over by the time the combo resolves. Look at all the commander players that think Craterhoof is OP because they can't connect the pieces between "this guy has 20 creatures" and "this guy might be lining up an overrun effect".
>goyf reprinted in standardso we've finally hit the bottom....
>>98728578bottom of what? are you referring to the fact that this cool ass card wont even be playable in standard because it doesnt help you win by turn 4?
New non-UB set releasing in a few days yet the thread is dead.Future of this game is grim. WOTC is Bushiroad 2.0.
>>98728578GOYf has not been relevant in years
>>98728578This is it's first printing its Futuresight print was a preprint from the future.
>>98727444Stay mad kike
>>98727463Sure retard, keep telling yourself that.
>>98728578Literally a bulk mythic unplayable in any format today.
>>98728615What if becomes pioneer playable?
>pioneer playable in a format without fetchiesbrudda....
>>98728600I'm not mad. I like white and I enjoy playing it. My boros tokens wouldn't exist without white.Keep psyoping kike.
reprint Dream Trawler
>>98728615I killed someone with two of them in Legacy a week or so ago. Unfortunately I agree.
>>98728659its so weird to me (only even played standard and pioneer) how some cards can be unplayable in those formats but close to bannable in legacy like Bilbo. The ones that rely on fetch lands I get tho
>standard best of one is the most popular format on ArenaPeople just want TCG gambling + slot machine gameplay with the illusion of skill.
>>98728707yeah, bo1 where I go first is a win. bo1 where I draw is a concede
>>98728707Phone gamers playing a round while they take a shit. Timelines line up perfectly.
>>98728707i like it because it lets me build a hyper specific deck built around beating color/archetype and i can concede the rest cuz i'm only doing my dailies
>>98728673>how some cards can be unplayable in those formatsCould you clarify what you mean? Are you saying you find it strange Tarmogoyf is unplayable?
>>98728619>>98728626I'm gonna make a deck whose entire purpose is making a big goyf and casting monstrous rage on it so it can trample over stuff
>>98728834>pushes your tarmogayfpsh...
does reality fracture limited look fun?
>>98728902>control meta focused set>fun
>>98728434Much as I hate to defend commander players, you have it backward. Bombs run away with games when players run out of answers, not when answers are more expensive. Going 1 for 1 in a multiplayer game means you have made your position and the position of one opponent worse. You have effectively provided card advantage to your other opponents. Because multiplayer gives you much more buffer (higher life total, other players generating aggro) tempo is far less important and card advantage is king. You can obviously bullshit whatever hypotheticals you want in which Swords is better but in a vast majority of cases, a card replacing itself or being a 2 for 1 is way more important than mana efficiency.
>>98728792I couldnt have possibly been more clear
All that marketing budget and they still can't make a good game. Yes I know the Japanese office is separate to Western offices. I also wonder why they would choose to advertise in Harajuku.
TQ
>>98729040Don't worry Trek with save the greatest TCG of all time.
>>98728578>Printed at mythic when most uncommons mog it these daysActual humiliation ritual
>>98728902I can see it being very stally. Not many good aggro creatures at low rarity but there's a lot of life gain and card draw + more deathtouch than usual so I can see games dragging out
>>98727261Simple cards sure, but a lot of the pioneer cards that haven't been added are cards that have never made it into a competitive deck. Sometimes it's not worth the hassle.
>>98727941>>98728072Good luck! Tell me how you get on, I'm going to Sunday and I want all the tips I can get.
>>98727261>>98729324I made a really fun new pioneer deck recently and it's not playable in Arena because they've not bothered to add some key cards it uses. What am I meant to do, go win tournaments with it to prove my deck deserves to exist outside of FNM?
This shit has to be some master level bait.
>>98728158This analogy is gay and retarded because if you have weeds in your garden and complain instead of cleaning your damn garden, you're the actual problem.
>>98729440what, the kkk part?
>>98729436>What am I meant to do, go win tournaments with it to prove my deck deserves to exist outside of FNM?yeah I'm not familiar with tournament structure in paper since they only recently said there would be competitive support in 2027 but if you can top8 a MTGO challenge with something in your 75 that isn't on arena, they promised to get it in at some point in the near future
>>98729440Explain the bait.
>>98728707You are misreading this information. What it actually states is "Arena is mainly comprised of free to play users all playing Standard BO1".
Pre-release tonight, I'm excited.My lgs sold out of their tickets so fast they are running one at their other store that usually does pokemon tonight.Good luck to anyone doing one
>>98728902It hinges solely on understanding how much of a target the Jace tokens are (hint: surveil and drawing are extremely powerful in 40 card decks and you need to stop your opponent from doing it as much as possible). That being said, there are a lot of ways to gum up the ground in the set and most games are going to be a slog.I don't know why WotC persists in making more mechanics that make the combat step more complicated as they state over and over that it is the part of the game new players / casual players struggle with most. Then again, most Magic players will still throw away their best creature as a chump blocker to stop them from losing 3 life when they are sitting at 15 life so this is clearly a lost cause at the point.
>>98729454What should I do then? Shoot him for being a transslop eating pig?
>>98728049Anon, not sure what kind of games of Commander you're playing but there are a lot of cheap, very problematic creatures that need to die immediately. You also want to advance your own game plan. That's why you see a lot of Plows, Counterspell, and other cards like them. Sure, they are worse but you can't play a game of modern Commander and durdle around unless your playing precons. >>98728934That sort of idea is fallacious because it doesn't take into account of the board position. If cast a Swords to Plowshares, instead of a Wrath of God, to kill your Opposition Agent that's stopping me from comboing or just nuke a big creature in my way from alpha striking then that is obviously better. >>98728673Card power is context dependent. Underworld Breach was an obviously retarded card to print (look we made another Yawg's Will but sometimes better!) that didn't do anything in Standard but was insane in Legacy. This can often be the case with combo cards or decks relying upon synergy.
>>98729998Grand Wizard is the KKK leader title
>>98730682Thats hilarious because the top search result for grand wizard is kkk stuff. Make magic racist again.
>>98730710it still is since they refuse to expand the cards banned for racism
>>98726829>>98728049imagine still focusing on 60 card in 2026. when the most viable Strat is hand stripping you know its beyond dead. cope morethe commander thread has better dialogue on what to potentially build tonight for reality fracture. popped in here and its nothing but seething over how much better commander is (and by extension why veteran players won't touch 60 card with a stick anymore)Sad!
>the most valuable strat is spending 1 mana and 1 card to remove the best card from opponents hand once or twice a gameuhh yeah?
>> Not playing sealed for prerelease
>playing jace tribal prerelease kek
>>98727456>White >AffinityxD
lotta decks getting raped by rotation haha you love to see it... just 5 more months of this haha
>>98731550yep, a lot of bullshit is rotating
>>98729324Possibility Storm is on Arena, anon. And you can make a fun lock deck with it.
Prerelease was nice. Went 3-0 with gruul-control (basically all red removal and green fatties)
>>98731627based!
>>98731550like which decks
>>987316832/3rds of the izzet spellelementals creatures + sleight of hand + spirebluff canalalmost every card in UB midrange
>>98728628>still can’t refute 8 years of fire design with a super majority of nonwhite bansLmao, what a retarded kike
>>98731700Cope white hating kike.
>>98731699>almost every card in UB midrangeYou weren't joking, damn.
>>98731683artifacts deck also takes quite a big hit, along with any sort of midrange control shell that relies on Annex to carry their shit
>>98731600>lost cavernsfuck I just made a funny plinking deck
>>98730227Ended 17 out of 22, pulled Maha and Samut from my promo packGood night desu
welpReality Fracture is total fucking dookieGuess we wait for the next set.
>>98732028Well, I disagree.
>>98732037Yeah, good point. I should just leave. Why wait for the next one when we know it will be shit too?
wotc needs to make a wildcard system irl to gut the resaleggers and scalpers
>>98732028Yeah, I agree.
So we got a mafia 1920s new york theme park set but we can't have a cool louisiana hoodo theme park set? It would have black people so it sounds like it is right up wotc's alley.
Got 1st place in my prerelease with Jund Artifacts featuring my nigga Aerid KonstrariRed definitely feels very strong with the sheer amount of bombs it has
>>98732124I would dig it. But they would be walking on eggshells to be called racist, so it would be gay and lame.
Everyone on here bragging about their pre-release. I went 2-1 and got a nice little foil promo (everyone got one). This set is the second best of the year after Lorwyn, which is almost a compliment.
>Go to locals>Having a good time at prerelease>Winning every match>Go up against store owner>By sheer chance happens to have pulled the perfect deck of all the best cards for their colours in the set>He is demolishing everyone who actually uses the random pulls>Event runner: "y-yeah don't feel bad if you lose to them, everyone has"This is some fucking 90's shit.
>Pull Emrakul at prerelease.>That Guy demands i sell it to him.>Simply tell him know its my card i paid for and i want it for my set collection.>Goes to complain to the manager who just goes "what the fuck do you actually want me to do here?">He refuses to play and just stands in the middle corridor of the store looking at me playing and furiously playing some pokemon tcg app>Eventually the store gets too full and he is asked to leave>Does a big dramatic sigh and tries to knock over my drink thats screwed shut and yells "OOOH FIDDLESTICKS" then runs out the store.I am not shocked an autist was at a card shop. It was a day of the week after all. But why? Emrakul doesn't seem like waacshit or anything. I expect this shit from Pokemon card events not Magic.
>>98732503Based store owner for gate keeping.>>98732154I pray red aggro returns to the days cori steel cutter.
>>98732503>>98732516I believe both of these stories.
>>98732516Parents always got him whatever he wanted.The fact he actually plays the pokemon tcg is is also proof he's retarded. Even Bushiroad games are better.
So that new Hydra is gonna be everywhere huh? that shit feels like they renamed a card cut from ONE.
How's the new meta? Is our Reality going to be Fractured?
>>98732541What does it do?
>>98732550>0/1 artefact creature>X1 to summon>Add X +1/+1 tokens to it>Remove one token during the battle phase to add it to every other creature on your side of the fieldNow add some proliferate to that shit. Even making it a 5 drop is nasty for the early to mid game. Only thing i saw counter it was straight removal or the dinosaurs.
>>98732541new card for ouroboroid decks (if they still exist)
>>98732568>ouroboroidNot relevant for Standard.
how is removal check not relevant in standard?
i liked Duskmourne and i'm tired of pretending i don't.
>>98732586Only because of a certain card in BLACK decks.
>>98732592Room cards were better than other memeshit like siege cards.
Duskmourne had cool creatures (non-human).
>>98732580then it's not relevant anywhere
>>98732611
>>987326271 Ouroboroid. Decks have zero fetch nor intention to build around Ouroboroid.Literally replaceable.
Someone post the up to date one.
>>98732817Wait until Trek and then X-Men are released. X-Men especially.
>>98732817they are doing this to sell collector boosters right?
>>98732983No they are doing this for Magic the Gathering playerbase.
Honestly, they should just allow you to make any creature your commander and call it quits.
>>98732541Nah, its way worse.
https://x.com/MangaMoguraRE/status/2103577360880873765There will be a sequel to Destroy All Humans. They Can't Be Regenerated
it's so over bros...

>>98732817Oh boo hoo my limited environment is ruined if I draft 2 of the same rare or try drafting a UB Marvel set. I'm still waiting for Edgar Markov to show up again amongst all this "Commander legendary spam".

>power creep the game so hard a single card only format is the most popularMark Rosewater should have been fired after Urza block.
does anyone else just walk out with the lands after every prerelease? its not like they'll notice
>>98733682I try to take anything I can. My LGS knows I'm their whale so they tolerate it.
>>98733159>ruin the series with the weird duel city tournament, the random foreigners that show up halfway through the story, and the earthquake that ended up becoming a nothingburger for the plotHow the fuck is this getting a followup spinoff?I really hope they keep it as close as possible to MTG.
>>98733682After I grace my LGS with my presence I walk out with no less than 2 cute passing trans, and my trophies.
>>98733747It's a spoiler for the next UBhttps://youtu.be/EnxS5SZBYDM?t=23
>>98733747The best part was when the author discussed combo winter. You know it still traumatized him.
I haven't played MTG in years and I only watch thrabenu every now and then to see what current legacy looks like.
drew the first round 1-1 and then won my next two rounds at 2-1, but then I had to go home. LGS said I most likely topped so I can just pick up my packs whenever which is nice
Totally beefed it tonight. 0 mythics in my box, useless rares what am I supposed to do when people whip out their mythic planeswalkers or turn 4 Ghaltas
>>98732124they would have to reprint Bayou for that. Amos Moses 3G/BLegendary creature - Human Cleric RogueWhen Amos Moses enters, destroy target crocodile Protection from non-outlaw creatures2, T, search your library for a Swamp or Forest and put it into your handMardi Gras Indians in each color, they would have to have a way to recreate that, lets see how Black Atlantis plays out this winter (or whatever it is, I think I'm combining 2 of the projected sets for 2027)
Goyfs are cheap af right now maybe I should grab a playset just in case
>>98733963in case of what
>>98734002Golgari standard dream I had last night comes true
>>98732555Came to this thread to see what's going on with magic, saw Hydra, why the fuck is anyone here still playing this game?
all of my friends play 40k now. i never played any ttgs other than mtg. is 40k fun? i observed a match knowing nothing about it and it seems to take forever to setup and apparently you *have* to buy a rulebook and you have to buy the updated rulebooks as well.
>>98734049Imagine you had to hand draw every card you played on a blank card and you had to draw it accurately based on a predefined image. And the blank cards cost you $100 for 10, using anything else would have Wizards break your kneecaps. And there was no text on any of the cards you had to look it up in Green Rule Book (Standard Oct. 2026) or Green Rule Book (Modern Oct. 2026), etc. where you had to fill out all that information on your deck list and then check your opponents decklist against their rule book to make sure they weren't bullshitting you.
>>98734016damn, must have been a nice dream
>>98734064This is pretty accurate for what 40k/AoS gameplay involves lmao
>>98734064Counterpoint: if you have a good enough collection then you only need to update rules once every 3 years (and everyone gets rules for free anyway). I play competetive 40k and while the initial spendings were higher than MtG, now to continue being competitive in 40k I spend almost nothing compared to MtG standard (the trick is NOT playing space marines)
>>98733340>Cheat and get hired by WotC because you have a pussyNot the best example
>>9873404940k is more about the journey than the destination, meaning that you really need to enjoy the process of building the army because the game is kinda shit and not very fun to play. It also requires you to plan your session ahead way more than just putting a deck together and going to the LGS. You can have fun playing story driven matches, but the game falls apart when you try to minmax and a lot of the match is spend on doing nothing or rules checking, so you need to enjoy the company your playing with.If you have a playgroup that plays periodically, it's miles better than trying to organise playing with randoms
>>98733682I did accidentally walk out with them but I will give them back tomorrow.
I can Finally make Ashiok Consistent
>>98732555Its so cute when you retards say things like +1/+1 tokens and adding tokens to your field lmao. Fucking moron.
>>98734049When I was involved with 40k years ago I had more fun painting and altering individual models than I did playing. I won a golden (bronze) demon once. I found Warhammer Fantasy much more interesting than 40k and more enjoyable as a game, but from what I heard they stopped supporting it like 10 years ago then tried to reboot it recently. It's not really worth the money>>98733185Vintage is free wins because half the field is playing Lurrus and doesn't know what they're doing. MWI is a good pick if you win your dice rolls against Jewel
>>98730803>>98730710Worst thing is that Envoke Predujice is a good card for Blue in formats that would permit its usage. Having to pay double the mana for spells really fucks you up unless you have a infinity mana setup.
>>98732100It's called having a printer and not playing with paypigs
>>98730670>That sort of idea is fallacious because [...]Hey retard, you LITERALLY just did the '"You can obviously bullshit whatever hypotheticals you want in which Swords is better" because you were incapable of forming an actual logical argument.I can give you multiple situations where Shock is better than Lightning Bolt but that doesn't mean it is generally true. Yes, there are situations in which Swords is better than Wrath of God but in order to orchestrate them you are actively making Wrath of God no longer card advantage, which does fuck all to address my argument that "Replacing itself or being card advantage is more important than mana efficiency in the vast majority of cases".I don't know if you are being intentionally thick or if you genuinely do not understand what I am saying, but if you want to refute me in a meaningful way instead of 'what-about-ing' a handful of narrow scenarios in which Swords/Path are better than removal that gives you card advantage, you need to address what I am arguing based on the logic behind the argument OR if you insist on bullshitting hypotheticals, provide some kind of argument to support the claim that your hypotheticals are the most common situation rather than a niche occurrence that only happens very rarely.
>>98733328There were a few on the pro tour back in the day.
There's no set without good art. But so often good art is tucked away behind some special variant.

>>98735186these art variants are in regular packs though
>>98735756Sure, but there's a reason why these are already x10 more expensive.
>>98735781Pre-release prices don't mean much.

>>98735791It means that the special versions will be ever so rarer.
>>98735804why does the snake have a random chicken leg?
>>98735847The Amphisbaena is from a greek myth and for some reason they started giving it legs a few hundred years ago.This is one on a 15th century church.
>>98735791>>98735781yeah its too early really to know. my promo card was the dragon that makes treasure tokens (artifacts) instead into dragons and then I got one in a collector booster I bought. I can't decide which to trade to someone I play with regularly or if it's too early. the prices are super volatile at this time>>98735804>>98735890I had this in my pre-release deck. good card over all, was really a magnet for removal though (I guess people future-sighting a fight-death touch spell). any idea how to pronounce it?

>I will pay 1G for a 2/3 and on ETB it looks at me and asks if I will be a loving owner and in response to the ETB I give it a bowl of food and some Good Boys while scratching its earsMy opponent:>In response I will pay "Draw 1 card" as an alternate casting cost for my card "Atems' Rebuke" since it targets a creature. Target creature's controller exiles all permanents they control, Library and Graveyard. Then they shuffle their hand into their deck and draw X+1 where X is the number of cards in their Library."

What is her face meant to convey? The correct answer is cuteness.

>>98736032>Denziloreprecognition is a powerful ability, especially in a horror moviethe situation would be akin to a chess game between Denzilore and Valgavoth, with the former exploiting every shred of advantage he can muster from his visions and the latter trying to shut every possible avenue of escape Survival chance: 40%>Uldarosreality magic is dangerous, Valgavoth has to find and slay the sphinx before he manages to find the right equations to open a portal to another plane on its own or collapse the house in a black hole as a last ditch spiteful gestureSurvival chance: 30%>Ingrisbringing magic of the stinging word to Duskmourn would increase its overall lethality, much to Valgavoth's dismay since he needs his victims alive as long as possible to squeeze fear out of them; he'd do his best to try to stamp out this kind of spellcraft before it consolidates causing a permanent reduction of his fear harvest, while Ingris might die relatively easily, she would definitely have a solid chance to leave a permanent mark on the house of horrorsSurvival chance: 25%>Aerishe'd set shop in the Hauntwoods and start to industrialize in them, helping the survivors to build a steady army of puppetbeasts to face the horrors of the house and conquering it; it would be akin to a rts game between Aeris and Valgavoth; who knows whether Aeris will be able to seize control of the haunted puppets of the house or if the malevolent spirits of Duskmourn could possess the freshly crafted puppetbeastsSurvival rate: 35%>Kwiaprobably the most dangerous of the buncheven if Valgavoth manages to slay her, there is a high chance of her botanical creations expanding steadily in the house and turning it into some sort of Phyrexia-like greenhouseSurvival rate: 50%
>>98732655>Decks have zero fetchnature's rhythm. you don't even need many of them, you can mill them with icetill explorer, and cast it from graveyard. ouroborid is late game drop anyway
How does premodern, a closed format whose newest cards are 20+ years old, have a more fun and diverse meta than modern mtg?
>>98736032Valgavoth is a cosmic entity with infinite power, intent on causing as much anguish and horror as possible to all its victims. They would all get clothed and fed and taken care of and live a rather comfortable life.
>>98736754Formats were just built different back then
Upon testing, this card is absurd. The trigger condition is laughably easy to do.
>>98734002If WotC is in any way serious about Pioneer support next year (lol?) Like they said, Jund might be a thing, all the relevant cards are pioneer legal anyway, well, minus the fetches
Good. Fetches get stitches.
>>98737106>minus the fetchesisnt that a huge part of the goyf stratagem tho
We have the inferior fetches in Pioneer.

>>98737106>Jund might be a thingas someone who has been playing pioneer since late 2020, the thing stopping people from playing traditional jund midrange isn't lack of card quality, it's mana fixingsplashing red into golgari or green into rakdos isn't worth the stress on your manabase, specially since one of the major strengths of black midrange in this format is abusing creature lands like mutavault

>>98737574Not unless we have a Marvel set each year.
>>98737660X-Men is coming next year.Then DC comics.They're trying to get ASOIAF license too.
>>98737673I would appreciate them doing at least one fantasy themed UB set a year, but I doubt that will happen
>>98737574you forgot a format...
>>98737687No, I didn't.
>>98737689there will be UB in premodern forever???

So what are the best color pairs for the prerelease? Going tomorrow.
I hope one day wotc trows the reserve the list out the window and prints all pre modern cards but in universe beyonds cards only
>go through my cards before i pack them up for long term storage>only have 3 ons wooded foothills>these cost $100 nowfuck i should've bought my last one when it was still $30
>pulled triple vraska pair, two blue one red chandra from prereleaseBuilding a standard deck sounds tempting. But not sure if I can bring myself to play against Star Trek cards when they come out though.

>>98738066What was bro cooking
>>98738043I can't WAITdunno anything about trek but so don't wotc design team and while the series propably has more than enough unique characters to fill a set they will just make 5 different versions of each main like in spiderman LMAO
>>98737943Had 2 W/G players go undefeated yesterday
>>98738077no idea what I'm looking at but the strokework in most is pretty awkward. like it was rushed or something, especially in the ones that have some symmetrical elementsalso this might be a stylistic choise but using less saturated colors can really make a difference. right now these look like you just took the pure color out of the tube and didn't bother to mix any
They NEED to make draw go control the meta again in Standard.
Jace:>I'm right.Tam:>erm that's problematic *frees Emrakul*Nice cheating lol couldn't win on facts or principles.
>>98738011UB cards have already become staples outside of standard.
>>98738275Emrakul was always capable of breaking out of the moon prison.He was waiting for Jace to create a tasty plane of reality to devour.Also Bolas is free because WOTC can't create another compelling villain.
>>98738289Bolas is free because WotC is going to give him a redemption arc in an effort to both pretend they listen to fans, and soften the story even further.
>>98738223Isn't blue supposed to be the meta? This is Jace's goodbye.
>>98737707Premodern legal
>>98738294>I'm sorry I killed my brothers, enslaved an entire plane for generations, tried to take all existence and nearly succeeded >now please buy my new mythic rare planewalker card that rivals Teferi in meta dominance>also I promise it won't be banned for at least a year just like arcbound ravager
>>98738307They're already planting the seeds of it by showing that every plane he visited became an even bigger shithole in the universe where he never existed.
>>98738303>MARVEL in all capitals, placed above Wizards of the CoastWhy did WOTC agree to this humiliation ritual?
>>98738273isn't there a whole flash deck still? not hard control but I remember it being fun cos it was a bit different
Really wish I could ban all California buyers on TCGplayer. Most expensive shipping and highest rate of package theft/scams.
>>98738294yet everyone pushing forgiveness no matter what horrors a chara has made, they really cannot seem to forgive hitler when asked. curious
>>98738369>we will see a WW2 UB in our lifetime
>>98736754A format isn't balanced when the top 10 decks are all on even footing but when the bottom 100 are.
>>98738369Western liberalism “redeemed” plenty of Nazis. Hitler killed himself and this got the dubious honor of being made into the secular version of Satan, meaning the dominant ideological mode revolves around opposing the fetish of him in the name of humanism, and by contrast you have people who worship a cartoon version of him in the name of anti-establishment sentiment, further reinforcing it.If Hitler were still alive and legit said sorry and became a cloistered monk or dirt farmer or something, likely he WOULD be forgiven by a non-zero amount of people (just see what happened to Puyi).But anyway, what’s the point of saying this? Fictional worlds have no real stakes and so redemption is cheap. The “lives” involved do not matter. Most of the people hand wringing about Hitler in such contexts don’t even think he DID anything wrong. If you’re a principled Neo-Nazi (or even just a sympathetic authoritarian), you don’t think he has anything to apologize for.
>>98737943GW, RG and BG are the easy mode colors. UB and UW are also strong but requires some tight play. Personally, I went undefeated with RG. If you open enough heartwood generators and a Kiora, you're set.
>>98738494GW is good? Surprised to hear that, I was interested in it but increasingly came to the conclusion that it lacked any actual bombs to work with. Is it just good enough at common and uncommon to get away with it? Also, is Germinate Recruits playable in a dedicated GW deck or is it a trap even then?
>>98737943Green seems really strong this set, especially in the creature department. Good old green creatures + removal from other colours looked pretty strong in my matches
>3 Beastial Incursians>Ghalta>Titan Bones>2 Mana Dorks>2 Sureshot Sowers>4 Pias>3 Medic's KitesailsIt was heaven
>>98738225
>>98725450>Was taking an old casual deck apart, was about to chuck it into the trash as I remember all the cards were worth like 10 cents a popishygddt
>>98738077the black makes it look like some graffity tag shit
>>98739620There are tons of shit cards that I couldn't pass off to my brother that I've just straight up trashed. Hana Kami was made for the dumpster, longs for it. Sadly casual modern doesnt exist any more, so no point in keeping these decks. Had some real good memories though.
>>98738728NTA, but even without bombs WG can pretty easily snowball. Lots of sources of Lifegain/Counters, and a good number of flyers. Being able to grab some of the RG hybrid cards for ramp also means that you can splash for a Red bomb if you need to.
>>98739606you can improve tho. search for trick about things you want to paint. for example cleaner linework or general color mixing with what I'm assuming is acrylics. watch someone painting, trace or extend existing artworks like basic lands. this way you get more comfortable with the medium when doing original pieces. just something I had to go through too
>>98738062I like this one.I like the eye and skull.
>>98731699>UB midrangestop calling it midrange, its just dimir kaito
You're still buying this dogshit slop of an ugly product... but why?Right, because you're a worthless retarded fucking faggot.
Is playing this game an humiliation ritual on itself?
>>98740253Explain.
>>98740253Have you seen what the clowns that buy packs look like? This game now is the territory of obese women with dark red hair and their fat manlet boyfriends (open relationship only for her) with an entire room dedicated exclusively to funko pops, if you want to die of cringe but die laughing just pay a visit to any lgs or any place that sells packs, they also throw the cards away (understandable) after a quick glimpse.Also please do mind having any sort of contact with those who still subject themselves to playing this dogshit game, because there's an impossibly high chance that they might give you AIDS or some other STD with just a handshake that they got when they had their annual sex intercourse with their girlfriend.I am not even fucking kidding or being a memester here. I wish I was.
>>98740273https://scryfall.com/sets/dfthttps://scryfall.com/sets/mkmhttps://scryfall.com/sets/whohttps://scryfall.com/sets/neohttps://scryfall.com/sets/ikoI believe this is sufficient.

>>98741198>rules for thee but not for me! hihihi...
>>98736754It’s the one format where JOTC can’t kike mono White from its true mechanics or force their cucked mechanics onto White AND can’t steal White’s mechanics and give them to nonwhite colors. It’s literally the best format for White.
>>98725394>Visit this thread for the first time in a year>See this in the OPI'm so glad I stopped playing this garbage years ago.
>>98740334>I went to the prerelease yesterday and everyone there was exceptionally normal and well adjusted.In today's kiked society subhumans who collect funko pops, are covered in tattoos, watch rick&morty, believe whatever the television says, play videogames performatively and go to therapy are the spot on definition of "normal" and "well adjusted".
