As a mostly limited player, am I even allowed to participate in this conversation?

Whining EDH players to cEDH players: "You evil people appropriated our format, we demand you leave and stop playing (EDH, not magic in general)" Whining cEDH players to regular EDH players, after appropriating the format: " You losers need to conform to US (specifically the ban list, ...

If you are going to get into "Ban tiers" you might as well just go all in on a point system. That would provide a better -this deck vs. that deck- comparison.

By his manifesto there, he is clearly a wacko, but so what? The world has always had crazy nutbars (usually in the arts), and always will.

I thought it was fine... untill I looked up the price. $40 should buy more... I don't know, just more.

Untapping [CMC]xlands as part of it's resolution is a totally balanced mechanic that is completely underutalized. We need more of these.

This seems like something they did just to prove they can, but it probably wouldn't hold up in court. It is exactly "something they did just to prove they can", as per their own words. Stranger things have been upheld in court, regardless it can't prevent you from playing that deck or tho...

Except, in this case, the cards were chosen purely for aesthetical reasons. That IS the reason they chose the cards they did, to secure the copyright. The didn't copyright a highly-played deck or a winning stratagey. They copyrighted a deck with Angels and demons exactly so it could be considered &q...

There is a massive difference between this and the Michelin guide. The Guide doesn't even remotely claim they own the list of the restaurants, all they do is grade them on their food and service. Actually, The guide does claim they own the list. Any copyrighted work consisting of a curated list is ...

Think of it like The Michelin Guide. I don't own the restaurants, but I can still copyright a currated collection of them. Hasbro will probably challange, but on it's surface the copyright is legal, just toothless. I mean it certainly can't stop you from playing that exact deck. Even in a tournamen...

-nevermind-

Ah, Yusri, the latest in WotC's series of "what if we took a silly casual strat, and made it so you have to kill their commander every turn or you lose the game?" commanders. Great. Also I kinda hate the design. As I'm reading it, at first I'm thinking "oh interesting, what's going t...

Are people sick of my plargg obsession yet? I can't seem to stop building new decks for him.

I can only respond for myself, but no, I am not sick of being obsessed with Plargg (It's that ultra-high, raising a glass to chaos collar.)

Especially in g where I can double my mana for half the cost via vernal bloom . Idk, I just find this incredibly over played and over rated. + Grinning Ignus. Much fun was had by...

I have an opinion about this, but it is not listed in the options above, so I voted 1, as my idea would be stricter than any of the other options. I would let some one play a specific lesson from outside the game tied to a specific learn card. When that specific learn card is drawn the could put tha...

I Have 2 Chrome Moxes (well, technically, they belong to my husband since he's the collector), and I can not recall ever actually playing with them in anything besides limited (Double Masters, not Mirrodin). The thought of pitching a card does not fill me with happy. I guess I should try to get over...

Shriekmaw: still quite good.

Plesiosaur please, please keep pleasing me. This card is fair (I don't mean "mediocre", I mean "without unjust advantage"). If you play with a fair playgroup, I could see it seeing a lot of play. I guess it depends of your meta. I've never played with it 'cause mine is still in i...

Friday, March 26th, 2021; Basri Ket Man, I don't even remember this guy coming out at all. Looks like a strong white weenie support though. I'd have loved to jam this into Thalia back in her heyday. That golden and white armor. Paladin. Hair down on one side, but not quite over his eye. Definitely ...

Make Teferi's Puzzle Box have a point.

People will hate you though.

You monster!

Love this card. Love the cost. Love the effect. Love that it flys. Love that lifelink. But seriously, that art is bad. No. Worse that that. Think "sawdust-flavored" or "sewage-scented". The kind of thing you don't want to think about. But seriously, I think I'd consider this a st...

Dominaria was a strange place during the temporal crisis. I know those obelisk-y things are supposed to be mountains, but what the $%^&? It reminds me of a field of wind turbines without the, you know, turbines and blades. Just the towers. Anywaywherehow... I give it: Hmm... It is too costly (ma...
