With the usual proviso that Spike is a better player than you and makes horrid decks work. YMMV.

allowing boosters to be sold to children is a society-level failure on the level of allowing food service workers to be paid below minimum wage. the use of the term "booster fun" makes my skin crawl whenever I read it, those fucks know exactly what they're doing

Been playing MTGO EDH because it's cheap and you can build a powerful deck for 5 tickets and it's wild seeing all these cards you didn't know exist.

Just played someone using the Cipher mechanic, had no clue it was even a thing. Seems like something they should bring back

It feels like I get matched against Nicol Bolas and other very controly decks 90% of the time if I play three mana Chandra in Historic Brawl. But I enjoy styling on those decks with some old-fashioned Mono R Aggro. Either that or I die horribly after they have a board wipe and removal for Chandra but that's fair game.

Has anyone bought top-loading KMC Inners lately? They were out of stock when I was looking late last year, and I'm starting to see them again, but before I spring for them I am just making sure they are still the same quality.

I don't think it's wrong for MtG to be gambling, but they shouldn't run from the label. It's gambling that's nominally for children but is mostly for thirty year old Redditors! There's only a small shame in that

"That must weigh heavily on your soul. Let me purge it for you."
Glad to find there's at least one playable format even if I have to hop back into MODO. I'm enjoying Pioneer Orzhov Vampires quite a bit, I think I'm almost ready for a league.

Just beat the mirror, which can be a slog, after my opponent was first to get a Blood Baron down, even though I was well ahead on life. They seemed to be turning it around even as I got my own down. They built a really wide board then made the fatal error of playing out a Champion of Dusk, drawing a tonne but going down to eight. I had Edgar in hand, so the Blood Baron and Mirthless Sorin token I have go from dealing six to exactsies.

Is there something I'm missing that will make certain enemy actions more clear? It's not always obvious that they have brought a companion into their hand or cycled, or the top/bottom decisions for scrying didn't there used to be text output for this stuff?

KMC never had a QC issues all they have had are "Bezos is a mercenary fuckface who doesnt care if you buy inferior bootleg poo poo off his site" and "nobody in certain countries cares about fugazis" issues.

The only problems they have had since then is supply but who hasn't in the last year?
