The Shortest Path posted:Is he that bad? I'd figured he would be decent in most unpowered cubes The kind of deck that wants to play Domri Rade can't beat a reanimator deck or a wrath or a twin combo or any kind of combo or a bunch of counterspells and removal or a ramp deck or an Opposition. Other than that it's a fine card.

I mean they had to spoil a lovely mythic first, right? The Terminate art is pretty boss, though.

At least if they print the full cycle we'll get one good modern card out of it, unlike all the other bad cycles they could print! Also all five are kickin rad in limited so

3rd reprint for primal command. Arguably the 2nd feel bad rare spoiled and the first of many feel bad rares.

So if card prices drop after a reprint and then steadily go back up, what is the optimal time to purchase them? The day of opening, a week after, never? I need them fetches and caverns.

The time to buy is when it's low enough that you think the value you will get from them is more than the price you will pay for them. If you care too much about how the price changes after you've already bought them, you are bound to wind up unhappy even if you time things perfectly.

Welcome to the bone zone. https://clips.twitch.tv/WittyIgnorantMinkDoubleRainbow Tapping Grove of the Burnwillows makes an opponent's Death's Shadow disappear if the mana ability increases the Death's Shadow's controller's life from 12 to 13. It can be undone by undoing the tap for mana as long as there isn't a triggered ability that happens when that player gains life. Star Man fucked around with this message at 10:13 on Feb 28, 2017 |

So, can I just buy a booster box and deck starter of the Amonkhet release and be ok play? Last time I played was 7th and really it was just with the starter decks so I'm a bit at the moment as I don't recognise anything.

If you want to draft or crack packs and play like you did back then sure, but if you want to build competitive decks you're better off buying singles.

I'm thinking of getting into the game with Amonkhet too, what up rookie buddy. My plan's to go to the prerelease and see if I can build anything from the card pool I end up with. Starter decks are pretty bad in general, but I might buy two just to see if I can make one casual deck from them.

Elyv posted:molten rain is likely to be bad in limited and also we've seen no commons(other than guildgates) and etc They said they want 4/5 color good stuff to be viable and 3 colors fairly easy, so I bet it's probably okayish. Not a high pick by any means, but if your forcing mono red it would be worth a slot probably. Siivola posted:I'm thinking of getting into the game with Amonkhet too, what up rookie buddy.

Honestly if your just wanting to get your feet wet the best thing to get is a commander deck and play some games to get used to the rules. Then you can decide if you want to get involved with tourney magic. Draft is also the best way to play if your new, but it's also very high skill so it's possibly frustrating depending on your store.

Now that I look at the contents, there's under $10 worth of cards in a deck, not counting the single bad planeswalker: https://www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/kaladesh-planeswalker-decks So a bad idea I guess, might as well buy the deck I'd build in singles.
