I mean they already have a master list of every subtype in the game they could have one for whatever akroma is supposed to pump and then we'd only be asking if a creature with multiple instances of bushido stack withy this ability

Maro is bad and using MTG to enact petty vengeance on people who wronged him literal decades ago to the detriment of the game and will forever be The Coward Mark Rosewater.

Lone Goat posted:Did all his high school bullies play white in commander? This post is incomprehensible. More like people kept telling him that "Hound is fine" and he took it as a personal insult to make dog a creature type. And then wanted to show the world Companion was fine after being told over and over it wasn't a good idea across decades and, well, Ikoria.

A Moose posted:What argument? If a store does rare re-drafting just shame them on every social media outlet possible. I used to go to a store that did that, it was a couple guys in their 30s that would trash a bunch of high school freshmen to get free rares at every draft when sets came out. One time I beat That Guy and the salt there was INTENSE I didn't even know this was a thing and invited one of my friends out who drafted at a local FNM. Since I always play constructed and every other draft I had ever done let you keep what you drafted I told him that's how it worked and then when I went back the next week they told me he was banned from the store because he kept his draft. I ended up paying his "tab" so he could come back.

PlasticAutomaton posted:Can anyone explain the logic to me behind throwing Yorion in Dimir Rogues? It seems like a hilariously terrible idea to add 20 cards to one of the biggest synergy based decks in standard just to play a card that really does gently caress all for the deck, but I've seen it multiple times now in Arena ranked and I really am curious. To flaunt the fact Force of Despair isn't Standard legal.

ilmucche posted:How are vial decks at the moment? I'm thinking of buying into either legacy cloudpost or building modern/legacy slivers. Modern Vial decks are in a good place at the moment and my pet deck, ub zombies is getting it's fifteen minutes because it's a vial deck that can draw a ton of cards. As for cloudpost I recommend building it and DMing me prices you're willing to pay for staples because I have karnpost and am looking to sell out. ...Assuming that's allowed here

Bust Rodd posted:What is your metric? I find MODO to be inscrutable. I can barely tell what cards are in play. Arena feels miles ahead visually. Any metric, really. They both require you to have encyclopedic knowledge of the art when watching, but MTGO at least puts a few words out for you that are even readable at higher resolutions. When I watch Arena I have no clue what's happening because everything's moving around the screen being all animated with no log to reference back to. Arena also doesn't let you pause if you have no possible response so sometimes things just happen and I have no idea why as I'm frantically looking for insight. MTGO the graveyard is at least visible always.

PleasantDirge posted:This is a well known Achilles heel of the software, it's made for dum dum's like me so I can't gently caress it up. Ok but when it says "where would you like to install" and I tell it "D:, my external drive with the space and not C:, the tiny drive that came with the laptop" it doesn't keep filling up my C drive with garbage. I have had to make zero junction boxes to make MTGO work. I have to make two new ones every few weeks with Arena.

Bust Rodd posted:I dunno I think Arena is the best thing to happen to magic in like 5 years and it’s pretty much the only thing keeping the game alive during the pandemic. If we only had MTGO poo poo firing right now the streaming scene would be totally dead. Zoomers have literally zero tolerance for pre-2001 interfaces. I don't think any of this is true.

Huxley posted:When you Bloodbraid into Bonecrusher, can you cast the stomp side? You can. When you cascade you're looking for a spell with a CMC less than the CMC of the spell you cast (so in this case, less than four). Bone crusher giant meets those requirements so you get permission to cast the card. (rule 715.4) Then as you cast a spell with adventure you get to choose which side to cast (rule 715.3) So: You cast BBE, you flip the Giant, and as you cast the giant you choose to cast the adventure. Fun fact: Because BBE is only looking at the non-adventure side you could cast an adventure with a CMC greater than 4, because it doesn't have the higher CMC until you go to cast it. (Flaxen intruder, for example)

They're all cards that are kinda cool in limited and have drawbacks to balance them but FIRE design means you don't need those drawbacks anymore. That's not "Fun".

Sampatrick posted:geist also wasn't incredibly good in INN/RTR standard. it was mostly at its best as a sideboard card at that point as well as in the bant hexproof deck. the peak of geist play was in delver decks alongside runechanter's pike and vapor snag. geist in general was a pretty overrated card for a long time. Geist into verdict. A classic!
