Omar al-Bishie posted:what would be a good example of disruption, by the way? Thalia? Anything that buys some extra turns is disruption. Thalia is a good example as her cost increase will significantly slow down a deck that needs to cast multiple non creature spells in a single turn like storm. She is also fairly versatile since she also slows down any deck running non-creature spells. Any deck running cantrips doesn't want to see her on the board. Some other common forms of disruption are discard like Thoughtseize. Taking a key part of a combo deck forces them to dig or tutor for a replacement. It's probably the most versatile kind because almost every deck is disrupted in some way by having a card taken from their hand. Some less versatile disruption is something like Ghost Quarter. Against a Tron deck it significantly disrupts their mana even if they have a basic to search for. Against any deck with a significant number of basics, though, it's basically nullified. It still tends to be played in a lot of maindecks, though, because the cost to run it is low and it has some value against a fair number of decks by taking out man-lands or utility lands.

Ghost Quarter shenanigans are some of my favorite things to do in this game Countering a Spreading Seas and taking merfolk off their island, pumping up a KotR out of nowhere for the win, and keeping someone off of Cryptic and Scapeshit are all fond Magic memories

Of all the changes coming back a decade and a half later, everyone now bringing a big ol' mousepad to gently rest their cards onto is one of the stranger ones.

I mean, would you want to put your cards onto the average comic shop table? I once played a draft w/o sleeves or playmat, and the cards picked up a considerable amount of...mung.

When I was a lad we bridge shuffled unsleeved OG dual lands onto the cruddy folding tables of dank, dark gamestore basements and back rooms and we liked it. You may not want to admit it but deep down you should be thanking me for that beat-to-poo poo Taiga you got for a song because it's only "sleeve playable." That was my doing, a gift to future generations of players.

The tables are disgusting, frequently textured, and even if there is a giant playmat already on the tables can you imagine the filth embedded in them? Mats are useful and let you add some modicum of personalized fun to your game. When I started back 3 years ago I had a custom mat printed that's super abstract colorful texture stuff and 50% of the time I actually get to a store to play someone mentions liking it. Or you can be a weirdo with anime titties if you want to let the world know you're a skeezlord.

Searching online for "playmat" is a real minefield of things that can only appeal to broke-brained weeaboo sex weirds. I rather like this one, though: I will get a play mat, and wear my hat askew, and say "hello fellow kids," and pretend my knees don't click and clack when I go up stairs.

Ooohhh playmat chat. I own this one from Regionals but it's a little overdyed and that makes me sad as the lines aren't as crisp as they could be: I still do love this one but never use it: The top half of this is what I used for my playmat. Somehow there is a 3000x3000px version of it on the web and it's insane.

In combination of washing your hands and using a mat, you can prolong the life the of the sleeves you use which can save a lot of money. You gotta wash your mat every once in a while though. Most big events give out mats, so you are drowning in them after a little bit of play.

The SCG creature collection playmats are the only good thing to come out of that company. And drat are they good. I mostly use playmats from old dead TCGs like City of Heroes, WoW, L5R, etc. but I am also partial to the Shadowmoor and Shards of Alara prerelease playmats I have. My buddy got a Vendilion Clique gp playmat that he always uses and I'm very jealous

I do find it funny that playmats used to be a thing that people paid top dollar for exclusive ones as it was just a GP/SCG gimmick, but in the past couple years it's been flooded by so many events that they can now be had for $6 for a decent-size mousepad.
