Gustav posted:More importantly I like playing against people who play for stakes. People who care about winning and won't just get bored and leave halfway through the game, or snapkeep a zero-lander and just quit if he doesn't draw land -> land. That sort of thing. This is the big draw of MODO to me. Just never, never go into the casual / "tournament practice" rooms.

Flip Yr Wig posted:But would Phyrexian Unlife ever let you have negative life? Wouldn't you have 0 and poison markers? Is there some way to get negative life and then play an enchantment without triggering a game end? It makes you take damage as poison counters; however life loss continues to accumulate. edit: Watch a stream or two of Ad Nauseam to see the interaction.

Dehtraen posted:Conspiracy theories on the 'net are that they're trying to drive up prices a la what they did (and failed to maintain) with JTMS and City of Traitors but succeeded with other cards. Supposedly their buylist prices are up as well. Wouldn't surprise me if we see an announcement in the near future that they're adding more legacy back into their event schedule There's also speculation they're buying heavily into reserve list cards with the idea that the new Masters set will drop price on other cards and prop up demand on duals. Makes some sense. I'd kill for more legacy events though

Long shot here: Does anyone have recommendations for a mail forwarding service that I can use for MKM to the USA? Or is anyone in the EU willing to act as a shipping proxy? One card I want to pick up is about a $200 difference and I can wait on slower shipping. So many services on google seem super sketch so I'd like to get a recommendation or a real person.

[quote="“Dr. Red Ranger”" post="“476650004”"] Counters don’t cancel each other and disappear, if that’s what you mean. The stats on the monster will even out but the counters have to stay because it may matter for card interactions. So for your example, if it’s a 0/0 creature whose stats come from those 6 + counters, it starts at 6/6, then loses one because it was dealt damage, so now it’s a 5/5. Then, if it gets 3 -1 counters out on it, he becomes 2/2. 5 + counters and 3 - counters are sitting on him. Then if he hits 0 toughness for some reason (took damage twice, or something removed +1 counters) then it dies. [/quote] This might be my favorite post ever

I buy a pack every time I go to fnm as a way to support the store (their singles are lacking so I buy online mostly). I know it's a waste of cash but it's a nice way to be sure they're not paying processing fees on my $5 entry fee when I charge it.

I play lantern and the new version is so much better. Storm isn't too bad. Tron is nearly impossible but past that I don't mind most matchups. We have tutorable EE, witchbane orb, grafdiggers cage, and pithing needle mainboard. It's exceptionally good. Biggest issues are: - Unexpected early chalice - blood moon if it strands multiple Whirs in hand - World Breaker and Karn Chalice isn't the end due to the ability to Whir EE on 0. But paired with pressure it can be ugly. I rarely feel in a bad spot unless I'm against Tron.

As a Lands player, this card scares me a little bit. I doubt it'll see the extensive play Blood Moon does because it's not great against most decks. But man; there's going to be that ONE GUY that doesnt want to lose to Lands that packs a playset and ruins my day

Pac-Manioc Root posted:Anyone dealt with selling/trading to TCGplayer for credit? How bad am I gonna get rooked if I trade in some random standard rares to TCGplayer for credit to finish my stupid stompy gruulasaur deck? The buylist prices are a lot less insulting than my friendly local magic shop for sure. If they are bad, is there a better option? I've done it a few times. It's pretty much fine, but theyre really strict about shipping times; when you submit you have like 3-4 business days to have it DELIVERED to them. So long as youre good there; its been mostly reasonable. I did have some Mishra's Baubles sent back to me right when they announced the IMA reprint (I'd mailed them beforehand), which seemed a bit irritating, but all-in-all it's been good.
