I like to give cards the old King Solomon test to see if they're counterfeit.

Also what about burritos made with 2 tortillas?! A big flaming stink posted:as long as you're cool with getting a grossly unfair advantage over your opponent, its fine My point was more that there's a bunch of people calling their counterfeits "proxies" even though proxy has a pretty clear meaning. If you're going to be dishonest at least be honest about it. And yeah I'd really like to have a Moat for my sideboard in legacy but I don't so I don't play one.

If a card is out of print, there is nothing ethically wrong with counterfeiting it because Wizards is no longer making money off of it. gently caress the entire secondary singles market. Regarding sandwiches, gyros are the best kind and any definition of sandwich that excludes them is objectively incorrect.

Anybody aware of a somewhat recently written primer for Kaladesh booster draft? It looks like a debate between low curve aggro and five color value.

odiv posted:Eh, it's not like wotc hasn't confused the two either, when it suited them. That's why I'm belligerent as gently caress about my counterfeit cards. They are creating a problem where there should be none and then putting the onus on us to stop people from working around the fact that legit cards cost a poo poo ton of real money. I still want to buy into paper modern but I also plan to own 5-6 full out fake decks because people in my town believe I'm legit crazy enough to spend money on cardboard after selling 2 G's worth of cardboard to cover IRL fuckups and gently caress wizards for making me do that. Also I'm pretty sure we call them proxies here to avoid  accusations, not out of some sly wink wink nudge nudge we are just skirting a grey area feelings about being forced to buy cars or magic decks.

I need to figure out where to get some nice proxy cavern of souls for my first modern deck. I had no problem spending the $200 on all of the other cards I needed to build the good Elves deck but seriously fu k paying $60ea for caverns.

clamiam45 posted:Anybody aware of a somewhat recently written primer for Kaladesh booster draft? It looks like a debate between low curve aggro and five color value. Both are viable and even among pros there not much consensus about which is better. Personally I lean towards aggro because there's so many synergies and build-arounds that it's hard to build a control deck that can answer everything. It's more about what's open though. Aggro is R/x or B/x artifacts, W/x servos (get 2 copies of Inspired Charge or Engineered Might or the deck won't function) and G/x energy, but the energy aggro deck doesn't come together as often as the others There's too many control/value decks to list. There's almost no traps in the set, so if a card looks sweet, it'll probably work if you put enough effort into building around it. Prophetic Prisms and Attune With Aethers go quickly, so keep that in mind if you want to splash.

There's enough cards better than mox sapphire that it shouldn't be too surprising to see one second pick. The only things I'd be truly astounded by are sol ring, black lotus, and ancestral recall (but only in pack one), because those three are on a tier all of their own
