Time Warp was never a problem, so clearly the problem with this card isn't that it's a more expensive time warp, it's that it does other things too.

Stop blaming basic-rear end mechanics that have been around for the entire life of this game for problems caused by other poo poo.

^^^^^ I don't see anything objectionable about that at all. He sells sealed product at prices people are willing to pay, cheaper than retail. It's the pump and dumping insinuating you're getting in on the ground floor of some also-ran game that gets me.

Yeah sorry I should have gone in to it but I'm so incensed.

So, he was an early partner with the manufacturer of flesh and blood. So my understanding is he partnered with them to get a vanity card referring to himself made as a thank you? Non tournament legal. Then he got 1500 copies, put them in a secret lair style box, and offered them for fomo sale for $1k each, for 24 hours, promising to keep 10 for his family and destroy the rest publicly. He framed it as a public experiment to see whether people would reject it, making it rarer, and thus more valuable.

But at the end of the day he sold like 1300 of them for 1.3 million, and they are totally pointless pieces the equivalent of art cards. It's astounding really.

1300 people being complete fuckin marks is just a symptom of dumb fomo bullshit. Taking advantage of it is unethical yeah but no more so than what Wizards does on the daily.

I'd say nobody here is dumb enough to buy obviously useless nonsense for 1000 dollars but Star Citizen proves that completely wrong.

Is a bad version of Tymna in Grixis still good? I guess we'll see.

These look like poo poo and I suspect the UBRG partners friends forever are going to be CEDH playable, but the good news is that if they ever get Drake to play on that YouTube show that Post Malone was on there's at least one commander he'll be interested in.

Oh boy mechanically unique secret lair cards again

I find it extremely funny that even with all the updates, it still says that red redirects damage to planeswalkers.

the distinction still exists even if it's not made explicit. there's a lot of life loss and damage effects in other colors that aren't able to interact with planeswalkers

Yes but they changed damage spells to target planeswalkers instead of targeting a player and redirecting to their planeswalker like half a decade ago.

Use play test cards for every card in your deck so that you can keep your real cards in a stack of sealed cases near you and never risk damaging them.

Rats are monoblack. Squirrels are almost entirely green, with a small black splash for variety.

If anything rats should dip into red.

I've got a misprint (registration error) 3rd edition earthbind that I'm thinking of trading to the local misprint guy at my shop but I have no idea how to value the card other than I know perverts love it. Anybody know where I can get a dollar value for something like this? Is there a going rate for a deviance tax? I'm also trying to dump the rest of my misfits and errors, if anyone is interested I can put them up on SA mart

There's a Facebook group for misprints that's pretty popular, at the very least you can get a good idea of what people value those at.

How competitive is the commander deck?

It's among the worst precons ever made as-is, but I feel like it's easier to upgrade to something good than many of them are, and it comes with some solid reprints and staples.

That said, lmao at that price tag.

You're completely wrong about this. Gavin Verhey posts constantly on Twitter responding to people like Professor talking about how hard he is working internally to try to reprint cards for Commander players, how much he brings up cards that need reprints, etc.

I'd believe this was anything more than hot air if he actually had something to show for it over the past 5+ years.

The best standard was RAV/TSP and nothing else has come close since. It had more deck archetypes than you could shake a stick at and all of them were fun and good. Project X, Dragonstorm, Angelfire, Proc Martyr, Scryb Force, Gruul aggro, Boros aggro, Mesa control, Pickles, Dralnu du Louvre, Teachings, there was even a decent Battle of Wits deck.
