holy poo poo, Spice8Rack put out a 4 hour 20 minute video about Tarkir, the cards, sets, lore, etc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAksq3bCjLY&hd=1 the video is also a fundraiser for palestinian support, which rules. quote:At time of writing over 12,000 children have been killed in Gaza & the West Bank in the last 4 months, more than were killed in all conflict zones throughout the world in 2023. EuroMed estimates that more than 24,000 children have lost one, or both, of their parents, and almost a quater of a million have lost their homes. For the sake of humanity, give what you can.

Was in the lgs last night and looking at their secret lair display there were a bunch of them that I didn't even know existed. So much product. Won a bunch of store credit though, that was fun. Maybe it's finally time to get new sleeves

holy poo poo i didn't expect an aradesh card Aradesh the Founder Legendary creature - human, soldier Enlist Whenever a creature you control attacks, if it enlisted a creature this combat, the creature that attacked gains Double Strike until end of turn. If that creature's power is 4 or more, draw a card.

Kurtofan posted:holy poo poo i didn't expect an aradesh card I know I was certainly hoping for an Aradesh card, but I had no idea what he'd actually do. But that's largely because when I was trying to spitball how I'd do the Fallout precons, I was stuck on 'the NCR probably deserves one, but they don't have any strong names to put down' in a way that the Enclave has Frank Horrigan and John Henry Eden.

they made the decks to fit themes rather than specific factions the mardu deck is made up of military factions from throughout the games, so it includes ceasar's legion but also the ncr, the enclave probably (except frank horrigan who was put into the mutant sultai deck, which includes mutants and mutated from throughout the series)

Kurtofan posted:they made the decks to fit themes rather than specific factions Yeah, I know, and my spitballing ideas ultimately went in the same direction, although I landed on different ones. My angle was a Vault-Tec/salvaged tech deck built around the Vault Dweller, the Enclave with Frank Horrigan as the face will a full-bore scorched earth policy (they can probably also fit military/raider sorts like Caesar's Legion), a 'taming the wasteland' deck with Mr. House as the face, and then a deck of the wasteland itself, with maybe Three Dog as the commander just to sell the notion that nobody's in control of this nonsense, you're just watching. No idea what colors those would've been, but it's generally where I would've gravitated; I get that it's basically the decks we have with a few bits shuffled around.

My main objection to that is that would mean making a card depicting one of the protagonists, and that's a pretty lame idea, nailing down them exactly and defining their capabilities and methods.

I'm stupid, does this only generate 2 quest counters every attack? so you could generate 4 quest counters a turn if you had something that allowed you to have two attack phases?

It's not limited to once per turn, so 2 per attack phase you get as long as you attack with 2 creatures each time. Boone doesn't even have to be one of them.

There are so many pretty decent attack trigger dudes in Mardu colors in the set, I just hope they're all going to be in the Caesar deck so I can just buy that to upgrade Isshin.

It's kind of funny they went with this alternate wincon: Because it's so insanely low chance to actually hit the win, the only practical way people will every get it to work is by assembling an infinite combo. And because WotC decided to make this an alternate wincon, a LOT more people would try to assemble the infinite combo than otherwise if it just made a ton of treasure tokens or gave some other big advantage. Except that due to it being tied to rolling a lot of dice with random outcomes, it leads to a 4 horsemen scenario where you can't just say "I have this infinite loop, I'll do it until I win." You actually have to manually play out every single activation. If you set up an infinite loop with 7 bobbleheads, the chance is 1/280,000 each time you roll the dice to win. I saw that mathematically you have the highest chance at 41 dice, not sure on the exact percent chance to win at 41 but no matter how you do it, winning with this card is going to be tedious as all gently caress and not able to be shortcutted.

MrL_JaKiri posted:Please rephrase this because on the face of it it's nonsense The % chance to roll exactly 7 6s when rolling any number of D6es goes up until it hits a peak at 41 or 42 dice, and then goes down as you add more dice to it. I think I saw a ~16% figure thrown around? But I haven't done any calculations myself or saw confirmation. Intuitively you'd expect the chance to roll exactly 7 6s to be best around 42, since you'd have ~7 of each outcome, and of course if you roll 2000 dice then you'd expect the chance to get exactly 7 6s to be extremely low. E: That was a previous edit, here's the latest at time of writing this: MrL_JaKiri posted:That's not how rolling multiple dice work in magic, the ones you exclude don't count as having been rolled so more is always better Nothing on the card allows you to exclude any dice.

Yeah, 41 or 42 have a 0.163 chance of rolling exactly 7, which is maximal. But that's only going to be the case if you generate more dice rolls by creating more bobbleheads and not generating more dice rolls through something like Berserker Class or Pixie Guide, which instruct you to ignore the lowest results. If you're going to try to win through dice rolls, you probably want to include those effects (and Delina) and maximise your chances that way.

 So unkicked this is a 2/2, kicked once you get the 2/2 and a 4/4 token. Two kicks and you get the 2/2 and two 5/5s But it scales both dimensions of doubling season. Nuts with panharmonicon and junk too.

Ultima66 posted:It's kind of funny they went with this alternate wincon: Are they asking for 7 resolved dice or does anytime a dice is rolled count? What if you have Goblin Bookie, Barbarian Class, Pixie Guide, Wyll, Blade of Frontiers and the like that lets you reroll or roll X+1 dice and lets you drop one of the results. Based on the language of this card it seems that extra roll would still "count" as one of the rolls here.
