Why WotC Should Ban Nadu [Opinion]
  • @readthemessage undoutably, they can't admit that MH3 was a mistake too quickly

  • Why WotC Should Ban Nadu [Opinion]
  • @readthemessage @Evu Boltable does change how dominant the deck is. Which may be enough to take it from clearly needing a ban down to banning Shuko will be enough.

  • Off topic: bought defective sleeves, who should I ask for compensation?
  • @pathief as always, contact the seller first. If fhey don't do right by you, contact the brand.

  • "Outside the game" in Commander?
  • @xgranade To many the Commander RC's rules are definitive and the CR is irrelevant.

    It is long established that Wishes and the ilk do nothing in Commander.

    But it is a casual format, do what makes you and your friends happy. But if playing them against strangers ensure you bring it up as they may have feelings.

  • May 13, 2024, Banned and Restricted Announcement
  • @thesmokingman @MysticKetchup The ban is for logistical reasons. They were never a good idea for tournaments.

  • Rulings question... "creatures get" modifier and cards that care about power/toughness when creatures enter the battefield
  • @bec remember 'creatures' only exist in play, every we here else they are 'creature cards'. This can be a handy way to remember that these effects care about the properties of the creature in play, not on the stack.

  • A New Dungeon Awaits with Battle for Baldur's Gate – 50th Anniversary Edition
  • @MysticKetchup "(it's not a dungeon you can use anywhere else)"

    I wonder if they will actually update a rules document to make this rules change or just incorrectly think it is true?

  • The Basic Lands That Won Pro Tour Outlaws of Thunder Junction
  • @MysticKetchup Sorry Guru lands are now worth how much?

    And when the article calls them foils.......

  • Good Morning Magic: The Future of Ward!
  • @Ech (interaction being players and their cards with triggers)

  • Good Morning Magic: The Future of Ward!
  • @Ech Frost Titan caused the most infractions at most events it was widely played at untill missing your own beneficial triggers stopped being an infraction.

  • Good Morning Magic: The Future of Ward!
  • @ech @MysticKetchup If ward didn't replicate one of the classic worst rules interactions (that is better now the IPG was significantly updated) I'd 100% agree.

  • In the beginning of time...
  • @MysticKetchup @fleabomber equally sad to me is that much of the old online coverage is gone.

  • Maro’s Teaser for Outlaws of Thunder Junction
  • @wrenchmonkey @TehPers having "Desert Mountain" with taps for R or C would work well.

  • Still waiting for a good set to justify cracking open my piggy bank
  • @UnPassive @MacedWindow to many old school players there are two big factors in what has changed:
    * too many card variants, so you can't recognise cards by the art any more.
    * too many cards being released each year. Heavily invested players used to be able to keep up with knowing the text of every card in standard. But there are more cards instandard now (all big sets) and standard legal cards are only a portion of new cards.

    People didn't need to read every cardthat was played years ago, because they already knew most of them.

  • Do you think deck total value is a good enough indicator of how strong it is?
  • @bec budget differences are more fun when it means more decks. Repeating the same matchup gets boring unless you are very lucky.

  • Do you think deck total value is a good enough indicator of how strong it is?
  • @bec A lot of decks are expensive due to their manabase. When trying to compete on a budget stick to decks with fewer colours (but 1 is better than 0 for cost). An all islands manabase is ~free and pretty good, where the ideal 4 colour manabase will be 24 $10~50 cards (or $500 if looking are revised duals).

  • Reid Duke - Why You Should Care About Competitive MTG
  • @Evu @MysticKetchup it's also really nice to occasionally beat someone who did well at a PT. Or even lose to them. Some of the most memorable matches are those. Beating pros in an FNM draft, losing to pros in GP rounds, winning a draft against locals who have been to many PTs.

    It creates memories that keep players engaged. And in ways that playing against those same players, but not knowing they are that calibre, wouldn't.

  • Are Play Boosters Good for Limited MTG?
  • @MysticKetchup @mike removing a booster because stores had triune stocking all the booster types only to bring in another booster type is classic WotC

  • Venture into the Dungeon with the Battle for Baldur’s Gate Draft Event! (New special dungeon for the event)
  • @MysticKetchup dungeons, as "non-standard magic cards" don't need to comply with most rules about card legality.

    But as Tabak didn't knowabout it shouldn't be legal, but we need a CR update to make that so.

  • What is your unique EDH deck?
  • @MacedWindow My favourite unique deck is my Claire D'Loon deck: https://archidekt.com/decks/4162863/claire

    It's plan B is to win with [[Battle of Wits]].

    It's plan A is the obvious token shenanigans.
