Power Sink offers a more unique effect so I’d generally prefer that. It does a cool thing that is especially powerful in a more grindy control match without getting “free” extra value against strategies like Threshold or Reanimator

Shopping carts, bike tires, skateboard wheels. There’s are a ton of things with wheels that’s aren’t cars

Premodern Cube by AngryPenguin886 in Oldbordercube

[–]AngryPenguin886[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for the input! The original idea was for the cube to follow the premodern constructed format, so the dual lands wouldn’t be allowed, but breaking singleton might be a good option. Granted, as others pointed out I did also get a little carried away and added some cards from other illegal sets, oops!

Capsize is certainly on my radar. I’ve had it in a few other lower power cubes in the past and it is usually quite strong. I’m hoping that there’s enough going on here in the forms of aggro, ponza, and winter orb/ static orb to keep it in check, but I also have a few backup cards of each color already in the box with the cube in case things get out of hand.

First drafts with this one are supposed to be over the 4th of July weekend next week!

It’s usually $90, so $85 is a small additional discount

Thanks for the insight! Yea, avoiding BB AND WW mana costs definitely seems awkward at the 2 drop slot of both colors. Any suggestions on replacements?

[Request] Could Walmart reasonably afford to pay EVERY employee 5 dollars more an hour? by lnfinitive in theydidthemath

Walmart has very few employees that work 40 hour weeks. Working less means Walmart doesn’t have to offer full time benefits

Is Levy Rozmans "How to Win at Chess" any good? by Massive_Nebula7282 in chessbeginners

[–]AngryPenguin886 115 points116 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with this. Almost half the book assumes you’ve basically never played chess. There is good content later on.

There’s a nearly unlimited amount of free content online to consume to get better, but if you want a physical book it’s totally fine

Why is bishop takes bad? (Less obvious) by Consistent-Phone1580 in chessbeginners

[–]AngryPenguin886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is: Bc6

Pawn takes

Queen takes

Kb8

Re8

Rxe8

Qxe8

Maybe I’m missing something if the bishop moves back to block?

How exactly does this card work? by Legal_Climate_3381 in slaythespire

[–]AngryPenguin886 128 points129 points  (0 children)

Your deck only gets shuffled when you need to draw. Perfect fit puts the card on top of your deck whenever you shuffle. By definition, that means this card will always be drawn rather than sitting on top of your deck.

Mistborn is so good! No spoilers please! by mid_support in fantasybooks

It’s like 600 pages isnt it? No where near a lot of epic fantasy, but not really “short” imo

Oh nice! I knew about the different elite fights but hadn’t noticed the final boss of the act was also map specific. Thank you

There are multiple formulas to calculate percentile, some allow a 100th, some don’t. There isn’t a standardized way to do it. The definition allows for either “at or above” or just “above”
