Wasn't Tezzeret UB in his last incarnation? And Ajani is all over the place color-wise.

Entropic posted:Wasn't Tezzeret UB in his last incarnation? Is he? You're right, Agent of Bolas. Ajani IS all over the place but his last card was Ajani Steadfast who was Mono-White. I'm wondering when he's just going to be released as a Naya-Walker Just Formerly Mono-Walkers, not "Was mono and then became not"

A planeswalker's card isn't necessarily indicative of his or her overall colors but just the strategies that card is employing (and the person's mood too, I suppose). If Ajani ever gets really pissed off again, he'll probably be red, as it is, he's too chill old guy Obi Wan to do that.

C-Euro posted:They can't kill Lili because then there are no mono-black Planeswalkers, unless they've decided it's Ob Nixilis' time to shine I think Raven man will show up as the mono-black walker. Maybe U/B but we don't know much about him yet to be sure.

It'd be great if we get a reveal for why the Raven Man does what he does and it just turns out that he enjoys being a dick. That's pretty black.

So, uh, is DTK/FRF 8-4 just not an option now on MODO? I can't stand drafting Origins. I remember playing Theros block 8-4s well into the next set. Is this a new policy?

Wurzag posted:Raven man is Leshrac, back to gently caress up Nicol Bolas I will accept this too, really I just like it when we get callbacks and returns to the older story beats of Magic. My first period of playing Magic was from Tempest block through Mirrodin 1, so pretty much the entirety of Urza & The Gang's story. I'm bummed that I missed TSP and SOM blocks.

Yeah, they changed it so there's only one draft queue for each old set when they introduced 6-2-2-2s, to make sure the queues actually fire at a reasonable rate. Given that the time between queue starts for DTK/FRF is around half an hour at this moment, it seems reasonable.

Also this, sitting around waiting for old formats to fire (yes, even DTK) is no fun. my only real gripe with MODO is that they don't offer cubing or custom cubes 24/7/365

Yawgmoth posted:I am so down with this, also down with Yawg coming back since there's apparently a fragment of him floating around somewhere (or was when Karona contacted him). I would also be cool with Raven man being Yawgmoth. Just bring back one of them, if it is Yawgmoth, I would be interested in how he is transversing planes, since his whole thing is that no matter how powerful he became, he couldn't become a planeswalker.

tirinal posted:So, uh, is DTK/FRF 8-4 just not an option now on MODO? I can't stand drafting Origins. Any older draft format is only 6-2-2-2 now. The reason why is pretty simple: older draft formats don't fire, so they consolidated them into the 6-2-2-2 so that you can actually play them. The reason people don't like MODO is because the interface is bare-bones as gently caress. But when you play it a lot you'd realize why this is a good thing - you just get used to the way it is and you don't really need all the extra poo poo. I don't even play with animations on. The biggest thing I can say in MODO's favor is that the rules work properly 99% of the time regardless of obscure card interactions which is one of the hardest things about Magic to get right. Yes, the devs break Brainstorm once in a while, but its not really that common. The real problem I suspect people have with MODO is that you have to buy all the cards again and it costs real money. Speaking of MTGO, I'm still baffled there are people who play Sidisi-2 in constructed and don't know that if your opponent hits her with Hero's Downfall, you probably shouldn't just exploit something anyways. Onmi posted:Mono-White Walkers as of the latest expansion Ajani in Lorwyn is later in the timeline than Ajani Vengeant, so he's "originally" RW and Sarkhan's first card was GR. Also, Freyalise is dead and Teferi is alive (and invincible still) but also lost his spark for reasons. Angry Grimace fucked around with this message at 18:32 on Jul 30, 2015 |

Really digging pucatrade in a big way. I have traded before on the site casually but at this point I am done with the annoying trading in person at the lgs's I attend. Just so much easier to get rid of extra poo poo. I have been selling mostly on tcgplayer but moving stuff is just faster and for slightly more value. It is especially crazy how fast people fill your want list even if they are staples.

Speaking of pucatrade, anyone want a bunch of puca points (for an expensive card)? I've been pinching my pucapoints and now have enough for some pricey things my cube is missing. I'd prefer to do this with a goon and some of these cards get traded so rarely. Cards I need are: Blue duals Bayou Mana crypt Eureka Imperial recruiter Gaea's cradle

Angry Grimace posted:The real problem I suspect people have with MODO is that you have to buy all the cards again and it costs real money. I keep considering getting into modo, but every time I forget about its past offenses, something pops up. Some horrible bug makes a popular deck unplayable. LSV takes a month off when pressing "No" is read as pressing "Yes." Event prices get changed around in a way that is generally worse for players but generally better for income. I went to go help my friend do a cube draft, and cube had gone offline after a week and a half. (The last one led to Dzyl going back to poker, and luckily Bahra_ didn't follow through on his threat to quit when the even changes ended up not being as awful as people were making them out to be) MODO could be a game that works as well as Hearthstone and looks just a little bit better, but instead it is some horrible pile of code that has problems on a regular basis and has memory bloat to the degree that what is basically a graphical card rotating simulator runs worse than actual real games on my computer (including illegal second party versions of itself). I will close this with a disclaimer: I do know that Magic Online runs about alright most of the time. I just feel like if I'm going to spend hundreds for DIGITAL collectible cards, the game should work most or all of the time without taxing my computer so much.

It also appears that there is an issue with splitting if there is an invite/points being awarded.
