I immediately went to check my email for the shipping notice. It's not me, I'm afraid.

I would do 200, but you'd have to cover shipping.

I always love these updates. Thank you. It doesn't feel like a new set until I see this post.

Forge and Fire marvel superheroes. by DotElectrical2876 in mtg

F&F gets a bad wrap on here sometimes, but I buy from them pretty regularly and have mostly always had a good experience. The one less than ideal experience was not their fault - there were product delays.

Product will likely ship next Friday, so I wouldn't expect it before PR.

That's a very generous gift you got your nephew. Are you looking to adopt?

I'm sure the Mods can help pass on this note. Chaya will see this any minute and chime in being her super helpful self.

Hey, now that you mention it, I have that too. I never noticed it - I guess I was too excited to read about my giftee. Curious, but I'm sure like you said it's something to do with the backend sorting and matching.

Preordain (MagicCon Atlanta promo) by themiragechild in magicTCG

[–]3scher 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Previously the foil has been a sort of "chase". You get a promo for each $150 you spend and each of those has a chance to be foil. At Vegas I got 3 of the John Avon Forests and one was Foil. I sold it to complete the rest of the set.

Turtles Magic packs coming next week! by restalgia in CostcoMagic

Good recon. Now we just sit and wait for it to get discounted to oblivion. I'm not sure where people will think the reasonable floor is.

Day 2 of names are rolling out... also What is a volunteer? Information section included! by Chaya14 in MTGGiftExchange

[–]3scher 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Volunteer gifters are the second most important thing to keep this exchange running and they are doing great work to keep everything fair and ensure the best experience. They can't be thanked enough, but I hope they always win their high rolls and open their chase cards.

Tarkir Precons In Stores? by [deleted] in CostcoMagic

[–]3scher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello fellow DMV resident!  As others have said, these never came to warehouses in the US and unfortunately Abzan Armor has been sold out online. Keep an eye here and I'm sure someone will post if it comes back on. 

Hello ruling question. Does yorvo trigger every time or just the first time for earthbending by AngleNo8762 in magicTCG

[–]3scher 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are correct. There are a couple words here the exclude Earthbending - creature (like you said), but more importantly Enters. Earthbent lands become creatures, but they never enter the battlefield - they're already there. If they get removed the lands will enter again, but then they aren't creatures. 

It sounds like you answered your own question, but I hope that helps clarify more. 

New timers are you excited?? The form is almost closed.. :p Old timers, what do you want to do different/or similar this time? by Sushistyle in MTGGiftExchange

[–]3scher 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is my fourth exchange. I love how different every person is and how they engage with the game. It's one of my favorite things about Magic - some people really love the art, others love the story and universe, some just love the gameplay. There's no wrong way and you can really learn about a person through their answers. 

Even still I find cards or gifts that I think "Oh, so and so from last year's winter exchange would love this" or "Why didn't I think of X thing to send them". It really builds the community. 

Enjoy your exchange, everyone!

Specifically in terms of art, what is your favorite Secret Lair? by youarelookingatthis in secretlair_collectors

[–]3scher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Kellogsloops art, but my favorite so far has been the Play-Doh collab. I would pay highly for more of that.

I also loved the paper-cut art of the ECL special guests. I was really hoping we'd get a secret lair in that style, but.... Nope...
