One thing I can't figure out about Leyline.dec is why he has one O-Ring and two Banishing Lights. Why not three of one of them?

I can't wait to see how they fixed morph. I can think of using double-faced cards if sleeves are involved, but not everyone uses sleeves.

I'm not sure which one of the relatively spurious 'problems' with morph you're referring to here, but the reference to the double-face suggestion makes me think you're talking about a plague of cheating with morphing out non-morph cards, in which case the answer is to observe the game rules that already exist.

So what are some good bots to sell cards to? I just have Cardhoarder and MTGO academy on my list, but none of them wanted my foil Arcbound Ravager.Elyv posted:I don't want Jodah, he wasn't printed or mentioned on any cards or anything except the books until Time Spiral.

This Legacy semifinal match is pretty silly. Meekstone and Rest in Peace on one side against BUG Delver, Null Rod and Liliana on the other side against Death and Taxes. Both players with no cards in hand, just draw, play a thing, don't attack, pass.

This game has been swinging back and forth in small increments. Oh wait Abrupt Decay got the germ token.

Chances are you are going to struggle to move it at its "value". There's a lot of cards that have high buy-rates but nobody is buying them, it's kind of silly. Foil Blood Moons hypothetically buy for ~ 25 tickets but I've never been able to move mine because every bot has massive stock of both varieties. MTGO card economics are bizarre.

drat, Death and Taxes is just completely beating the hell out of RUG Delver on SCG's stream. Lands? Why would you ever be allowed to get a land?

Is there a deck that deserves to get Wastelanded out of the game more than RUG Delver?

Nope. Three wastelands in a game, just a total steamroll in that last round.

Obviously not watching the game I can't really speak, but it seems like RUG delver should be one of the more resilient decks against being wastelanded repeatedly, since like 80% of their deck is at one mana, 10% is at two, and the rest is at zero.

Well normally it is, but DnT decks complicate that with Rishadan port. That time not only did the DnT player have Ports, but also saw 3 Wastelands.

That requires that you be allowed to keep one land to begin with.

I'm not familiar with much Central Asia/middle eastern history but what are the wedges named after? I assume RUG is the Timurid dynasty and it makes sense that it's based on savagery but what are the others?

I can't speak to their names, but each of the Wedges has different cultural influences in their art style / dress / associated races. Mardu (RWB) are clearly Mongolian, they've got a lot of Mongol Horde influences Sultai (UBG) are Indian subcontinent, rockin' Nagas and Rakshasas Jeskai (URW) are Tibet / martial China, sort of the archetype of the warrior monks Temur (URG) are Siberian / north eastern asian tribes Azban (WBG) are Turkmenistan / the Turkic States / Western China

Korak posted:He's made a shitton of top 16s in the past few months since the ban went away. Honestly they really just need to get enough people to watch him or make sure opponents know about his past so he's not allowed to get away with what some players think he's getting away with. There was a recent article about his play and he's doing that "sloppy play" during the matches he wins 2-0 but super tight play if it goes to 1-1. I caught a bit of him playing against Andrew Boswell in the swiss of the Legacy Open in Baltimore last week. Bertocini had 1 creature and 4 mana, main phase casts Snapcaster + flashback Inquisition. A few other actions take place, then he proceeds to attack with both creatures. Boswell was very quick about pointing out Snapcaster had summoning sickness, but I couldn't believe how smooth it was. Like, I was there specifically to watch his play, and he slipped it by me (and Boswell caught it) well before I even thought about calling a judge. He also brings his "girlfriend" (I have no idea who she is) to every tournament, a redhead that's usually wearing something low cut as she sits next to him or stands behind him during matches. He's charismatic, people listen to the words of advice he gives, and he has a lot of high level players as friends. It is not as simple as just knowing about his past or getting people to watch him.

Snacksmaniac posted:I wonder what MSRP will be on this. It contains the first 4 duel deck sets, which ran at $20 each MSRP. That would make $80 the baseline, but I can't see them selling something that expensive in non-specialty stores. Duel Decks are usually considered a casual product and are typically available in mass-retail stores like Walmart/Target, where the most expensive Magic thing you usually see is fat packs/Commander/clash packs at $30.
