Re: Remembering exerted creatures

The only card I run in any deck with exert is Combat Celebrant and if I'm swinging with him I'm always exerting so...don't really need the reminder.

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread

So I sold a ton of singles (pretty much most of my non-bulk from my binder), got about $150 in store credit and ended up cracking 20 packs of TSR because I am an addict. Actually did pretty well for myself though. Old borders: Containment Priest Path to Exile Repeal Trinket Mage True-Name Nemesis Gu...

It looks like a generic old-time Swamp to me. But that's the beauty of art, isn't it? Different people see different things. :)
I think that simplicity is part of why I like it so much haha.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

Have added quite a bit of Kaldheim to my decks, have gotten to test very little of it unfortunately. Breya didn't get anything, too optimized a list for what the set offers and I don't expect to make many changes to her in the future beyond if I ever manage to get LED, Mox Diamond, OG duals.

Re: Warhammer 40K, LotR, and other IPs in Magic.

My favorite deck is my Godzilla, King of the Monsters deck so I'd be a bit hypocritical to be opposed to these. Even setting that aside I'm pretty alright with them, to an extent. My biggest issue with TWD SL bs was it being a Secret Lair, a product I already have been VERY outspoken against as disg...

I've got an Abomination of Llanowar deck that I've been playing for a few months now.

Re: Do you intentionally misplay/hold back?

I won't intentionally misplay, but there are times I'll hold something back. If I'm teaching someone I will likely slow roll a game when it comes to threats, tutors, acceleration and the like. Sometimes in testing I may draw things out until I can draw into a card I want to try out, or if I know som...

Re: SCD: Library of Alexandria

I see it in a light similar to something like OG Emrakul. It honestly probably could be unbanned without hurting the format all that much, but conversely it doesn't really add anything positive to the format to justify unbanning it.

Removing the ability to tuck commanders was a fundamental mistake the format has been paying for ever since.

I have long, long felt this way and the years have only ever strengthened my resolve in regards to this issue. First and foremost, what changed in regards to tucking commanders (this is mostly for the newer players)? Well back in my day you could cast spells like Hinder or even the printed for Comma...

Re: [MCD] Companions are horrible.

I honestly think it's pathetic that the RC saw fit to rewrite the rules specifically so WotC's pet mechanic for the block could work as intended in the game's most popular format, which led to the controversial preemptive ban of Lutri. Should have left the otter alone and just said that the mechanic...
