For whatever reason Chapin was visibly super hopped up/nervous that entire game even before anything happened and it was wrecking his play the entire time. I'm not sure I've ever seen a guy with a day 2 berth looking so rocky.

Look, fuckers. I know it's hip and edgy to poo poo on anyone who exhibits anything less than perfection on stream, but these dudes did fly halfway around the world to compete on camera. Sometimes dudes get jet lagged or have personal poo poo going on or or just have a bad loving day. Chapin is a known criminal, but in the context of loving Wizard Poker, I've not heard a lot of bad poo poo about him (as opposed to someone like Dezani). So, why don't you guys just clam the gently caress down for a minute and talk about some Ojutais and Silumgars and other cool loving dragons and let the dude who got a game loss for loving up and had some other assorted bad-play-itis have his bad loving day to himself. Christ.

Most high level players agree that it's an extremely high level skill testing card, and it's mentally taxing to play a card like that over the course of multiple rounds or even an entire weekend. Plus nobody wants to be caught making misplays on camera, so you see all but the most confident of players shying away from these complex cards and deck types like "g/b/x" or "red cards."

We've gone over this before Steve. Ron hates money.

Vintage chat: How critical is the Black Lotus to a UR/x Delver's plan? Obviously 3 mana for free is insanely powerful in every deck but I can see a lot of games playing out where the lotus being something else doesn't really matter. I've been keeping my eye out for the on-color moxes and the two blue pieces of power and... it ain't that expensive.

Almost everyone still plays it out for shits n' gigs, but when presented with "you can split for a promo and 3 packs or play it out for 4 packs+promo for the winner and 2 packs for the loser" I'd argue that the person who chooses the latter is the wrong kind of person. Coincidentally, the top players at our much more competitive standard FNM almost always split since that event pays out in store credit based on standings and the gulf between being 4-0 and 3-1 can be pretty wide depending on how many people showed up.

Alternatively, crushing the person that didn't want to split 2-0 rules

Good, good, now do a reprint of that sick old frame Noble Hierarch so I can get my playset of those.

e: Yeah, for mono red tron the list was basically the last list in that Pucatrade article, except with trading posts instead of the chandras and two of the banefires. It was an old Dissolution of Eternity brew and he doesn't stream anymore, but there might be a replay on his channel.

Honestly I should stop talking about it in this thread. My issue isn't with the natural of the crime but with the way our society treats convicted felons. I disagree with the idea that a felon has an obligation to inform everyone at an event like a GP that he is a convicted rapist.

That's because if they did that, you'd have to inform everyone at the GP of your terrible posts!!!!!!
