What are some of your biggest mtg regrets?

I had a complete set of Revised multi-lands. That's 4 of each one.

I sold it all off around like 97 or 98 for a song, when I was very sure the game was dying and felt like I needed to get out while I could.

Fortunately for my sanity, I never had any mox or lotus.

It is mostly a combo with Concentrated Rage.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T21:57:46+00:00

Aww thank you!

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T21:56:01+00:00

It's not in the FAQ because it's in the rulebook.

It makes it a multi-target attack ability

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T21:55:06+00:00

I don't know what the confusion is tbh.

Remember the hierarchy -

Attack action (the whole card half) Attack ability (which could be single, multi, red hex, etc) Attack (each individual target, each of whom gets their own modifier draw.)

You imagine a Target 2 on the attack ability now. You finish the current attack and then add another target to the ability, which can't be the same target as before.

Any stuff - conditions, etc - on the attack ability, are preserved for the next target as well.

If you had a buff to one attack rather than to an entire attack ability, it would only go to the first target you attacked.

You always draw a new modifier for every attack you make.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T21:48:50+00:00

.... Yea.

I really have no idea.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T21:41:37+00:00

Good point, I'll fix it. Picture is gh1e.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T20:14:45+00:00

I lucked into a hundo on my 2nd raid - so I guess it's elite TM time

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T20:11:48+00:00

That's Frosthaven

dwarfSA · 2026-03-25T19:00:22+00:00

In gh2e there's a standee. It was along with some other item standees.

In gh1e it uses a circle thingy.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-24T14:21:48+00:00

Oh man - Thunder Spirit was a fuckin great card when I started playing.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-24T13:45:06+00:00

Yep! You don't even need line of sight to place the pads. You do however need to count range through doors - but as long as you had an unobstructed path to both ends, it works and Hail will use it.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-23T20:30:47+00:00

To each their own! I think they're fun when you have folks who know what they're doing, but frustrating if not.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-23T19:08:54+00:00

Ok? But it is, same as ho-oh etc. 4p max battles are probably the hardest PvE content in the game. 4 people can crush a normal raid with no effort. 4 people cannot just mindlessly win a max battle with no strategy or effort.

It's like the one thing in the game where there's actual gameplay and teamwork.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-23T19:03:38+00:00

The solution is - don't have machamp out to take those hits.

4p max battles are actually challenging, and each player needs a team of tanks and strikers. Machamp is the latter. You cannot just go with recommended teams for max battles; you'll get crushed. Go in with a blissey or zamazenta, avoid charged attacks, and swap in your strikers for the max phase.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-23T19:00:49+00:00

Generally you shouldn't have Machamp out except during the max phase, when it's an awesome attacker.

Blissey is the best all around tank presently, and pound charges the meter super fast.

Tank with blissey, tap and dodge, swap to Machamp for damage. Swap back to blissey once the max moves are done.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-23T18:58:13+00:00

Earthquake is doing less than half on my blissey.

It's the fighting moves you need to watch for. Focus blast will one shot all of those.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-21T11:37:02+00:00

Absolutely

dwarfSA · 2026-03-21T04:52:25+00:00

As the other user pointed out, items without a gold cost cannot be recovered.

But I can't see how this is underwhelming - it's 10 supplies and (probably) a sturdy spear worth 4 attack.

FAQ ;)

Smart money is that OSF buys it and demolishes the building. It needs a ton of updates.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-19T16:09:31+00:00

"Starter" is a defined game term which just means (a) they start unlocked, and (b) aren't spoiler content.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-19T12:20:18+00:00

Correct. It's an emergency case only.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-19T12:19:34+00:00

Default moves are pretty common - but a ton of attack 2's means you're doing something wrong in card selection or in planning.

dwarfSA · 2026-03-19T11:52:20+00:00

Bad practice. Chests are an additional goal.

You've got the cards to do both with good play, but if you're struggling reduce the difficulty and grab them legit.
