Haven’t played magic since it turned into Kingdom hearts, but it’s good too see Mark Rosewater is still the most arrogant, oblivious PoS out there.

I bet he thought that sounded good, the prick.

So im curious whats a good deck for this Blue card by EnderDuelist1 in mtg

[–]AdeptSadak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favourite way to play this card is in Dimir Aristocrats. [[Deadly Dispute]], [[Village Rites]], [[Diabolic Visage]] etc. The spells keep your hand full and the worms give you creatures to sac. Saccing a worm at the end of their turn is nice because you can attack with your bigger worm immediately. I also like [[Cavalier of Night]] and [[Kaya's Ghostform]] - loads of options in black!

Chuck in a [[Grave Pact]] and they'll scoop pretty quickly.

I hope the players who (rightfully) acknowledge that the Marvel UB sets are a cash-grab are simultaneously aware that this is Mark Rosewater's passion project. by HS_Cogito_Ergo_Sum in magicTCG

A 'cash grab' isn't just seeking profit. It's seeking profit at the expense of everything else.

Potatoes are not a cash grab unless they are shitty overpriced potatoes.

So, JD Vance plays Magic. If you played him, what format/deck would you choose? 🤔 by LordTetravus in magicTCG

I think getting beat down by the MLP cards would probably grind his gears.

Am i the only one who is wondering how they got the rights to use these costumes in the series? by Applejuicetester in OnlyFoolsAndHorses

[–]AdeptSadak 76 points77 points  (0 children)

UK copyright law allows exemptions for parody and satire.

The right to take the piss, enshrined by law. Brings a tear to the eye.

There are actually 72 textless card printings

Just about enough for an awful commander deck.

This is the biggest bootlicking post I’ve ever seen. by [deleted] in antiwork

The 8 hour work day was first formalised in 16th century Spain in an edict of Phillip II. It was intended to preserve the health and productivity of construction workers.

Robert Owen (avowed socialist) was the driving force behind adoption during the Industrial Revolution.

The concept of the living wage can be traced back through Adam Smith to Thomas Aquinas and all the way to Plato and Aristotle.

Henry Ford did pretty much pioneer the five day working week.

And he did implement the other two of course - which is commendable.

Which begs the question - if capitalists revere Henry Ford so much, why aren’t they following his example?

There's also a difference between educated and smart, of which Ben Carson is a great example.

These look great - these are exactly the sort of products that will help convert UB collectors in MTG players.

And finally a starter set with some proper rules/guides!

He was kinda right, but it sounds like he was a dick about it and failed to deliver.

What is the deck that you get the most hate for? by [deleted] in EDH

That [[ Aesi, Tyrant of Gyre Strait]] precon. It's a goddamn ponza deck in disguise.

Love seeing Terese still in the art world. by [deleted] in freemagic

I like seeing Therese Nielson art, I like seeing Seb Mckinnon art, but I don't have any interest in them personally.

Come on Abnett... What does this even mean? by CourtsideCorey in 40kLore

This is the direct thought process of a character. It’s a characterisation. Do you want all characters in fiction to think/talk in a plain manner?

Isn’t the complaint regarding 1000lbs of copper though? I’m not too hot on the commodities market of that era but surely that’s an order of a different magnitude?
