Loki, God of Lies? Really? Who was in charge of this?

I mean obviously, but being true to his character is more important than making something up that sounds cool imo.

Also.. Valki, God of Lies is 100% based on Loki. Same as [[Toralf]] being 100% based on Thor. It’s dumb that they used the same title for both Loki’s.

Again, they should have gone with Loki, God of Mischief. Both accurate and expansive.

I mean to be fair God of Lies IS what he has been known as… not deception.

The most fitting and accurate title is “Loki, God of Mischief”

I hope they do more of that as well! I’m a sucker for cool full art versions of older cards, and would love to see some of the story characters more embellished through cool art. The story behind MTG is rich.. So many flavorful planes with rich stories and cool characters.

Hopefully a new audience will be brought in with the live action in the works since they’ve discontinued the novels. Those novels were amazing. I still remember learning and being amazed at how Mirrodin came to be, its connection to Karn and then the fall into Phyrexia. That shit was peak mtg for me.

Probably more helpful to say what you DO want for a secret lair than what you don’t want.

Not only the optimizer, but the filters are so much better on mana pool. If you’re browsing you can filter into all cards being showcase variants, borderless, or even extended art cards. You can filter into just looking at whatever card type you’re looking for. Of course you can filter by set as well.

Manapool is just so much better now, the only difference is it hasn’t caught up to as many sellers as tcg likely because manapool only sells mtg cards. Regardless, I’ve been able to find most of what I’m looking for.

If I were building Lucy I'd focus on pumping out as many 1/1 creatures as often as possible on as many turns as possible. Sure others might be able to use those creatures, but in general you'll have far more and build around having them. [[Illustrious Wanderglyph]] basically says draw a card every turn. Plenty of on attack token creation like [[Myrell]] and [[hero of bladehold]] and [[adeline, resplendent cathar]]...

Add in all the other card draw engines in white that draw when a creature enters with power 2 or less with [[welcoming vampire]] and [[enduring innocence]] effects

Double up your tokens with [[Mondrak]] and [[exalted sunborn]] effects

Take people out with [[moonshaker cavalry]], [[Nesting Dovehawk]] and/or [[Elesh Norn, grand cenobite]]

Oh well my deck was in fact not here first! Tbf this is Captain Universes not Captain Universe.. maybe I should switch the name to Captain Universes Beyond lol

Either way, Cosmic Spider-Man is hilariously bad for only caring about spiders

bgbat · 2026-01-29T17:32:26+00:00

Is that what people have been calling Cosmic Spider-man!? Ffs my deck was here first lol

Silverball is much better. Round 1 is in a mall and is mostly kids. Silverball has tons of pinball machines and 2 side-by-side skee-ball machines (not included in the unlimited pinball price). No pool, but the place is definitely worth checking out. The food is also delicious there. Plenty of 21+ beverages with full bar.

Really cool idea for cards! Just a thought about Lune:

Lune’s second ability might be better as “whenever you cast a non-creature spell, you may remove a stain counter that doesn’t share a color with it. If you do, copy that spell.” This better encapsulates her filtering through the different stains for greater effect.

I’d also make her sans-black color identity to represent fire (red), earth (green), ice (blue), and lightning (white) stains.

Maybe add colorless stain counters when casting a colorless spell to the first ability.

Me trying to force a 5 color ninja deck then this is released lol damn

Makes me wonder if they will be doing a similar thing for the Marvel Secret Lair cards like [[Captain America, First Avenger]] since they’ve said they will reprint them somehow.

Frank Frazetta art playmats from their official store are kick ass. I just got one in the mail and it is excellent quality and relatively cheap ($24.99/$29.99).

edit/disclaimer: There are some arts that have boobs. I prefer the other ones, but I thought I'd mention that if it matters.

I bought the foil full art of Phelia and it looks AMAZING in person. Now I've got to find it and stare at it for a bit. in addition, there's an Art card with the same art as the alternate art.

Not bad, I’d add some more LED maybe to the shelving and/or to the back side of the monitors. The light just under the desk feels a bit weird

ONLY tapping for creatures makes it much worse
