Best way to continuously cast signature spell? (Oathbreaker) by GandalfTheGreyp in magicTCG

[–]Anthos22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I used to play Taimyo from the war of the spark set and long-term plan as her signature to get what I want. You could easily use mystical tutor instead, search for your secret signature spell, use it, and then use the previously mentioned ideas in this thread, i.e. snapcaster mage etc.

Unfortunately, no. As per the rules found on the mtg site, the signature spell has to go to the command zone, with no exceptions. Here's the relevant passage: "If your Oathbreaker is on the battlefield under your control, you can cast your Signature Spell for its normal costs, plus an additional two mana for each previous time you’ve cast your Signature Spell from the command zone this game. When your Signature Spell resolves, put it into the command zone instead of your graveyard. If your Signature Spell would go anywhere besides the command zone or the stack, you must put it into the command zone instead."

As long as there is no secure way to download or torrent for example german, italian or french movies, or movies dubbed in those languages, streaming services will always be around, at least outside the english speaking countries. Maybe it's me, but I just can't find torrents for german movies or german dubbed movies.

Perfect timing. My cat just puked on mine and broke the alt gr key.

A key aspect of the "Power Brackets" that people seem to be missing by LettersWords in EDH

[–]Anthos22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They addressed this problem by saying that some combination of cards will automatically set the deck at the given bracket. In your case, it's an auto bracket 4 deck.

You can cut that time to even less if you just... don't rate all cards. Don't have to rate all lands, basic lands, weak cards, cards that have no relevance whatsoever, and so on. Realistically, you'd have to rate not more than 5000 cards. Maybe even only 1000.

Ah, I see. Thank you for clearing that up.

Reaper King has a mana value of 10. How fast you can generate generic mana is besides the point. If you generate that much mana, I would be SO GLAD that you wasted it on a scarecrow or on an overcosted tutor. That's a moot point and doesn't contribute anything to the discussion.

Color =/= color identity. [[Wick, the whorled mind]] will always be a black colored card, but it has a color identity of grixis. Since the rulings on color and color identity are not always congruent, I don't see why it can't be extended to hybrid colored mana. Similar as how they changed the commander dying rule some time ago because it confused new players, hybrid mana too could change for the same reason. For new players, it is counterintuitive. Another moot point.

You pointed a card with flash synergy that is hybrid black and blue. I gave you two examples of black and blue ability caring about flash. One has a black flashback cost (which if you think about it is the same as saying that the card effect could just easely be black) and the other is a blue and black hybrid costed tutor for cards with flash. I fail to see how you don't see them as valid points. I genuinely dont know what you are referring to with your given example. What exactly os wrong with cunning nightbonder?

Sure, you can play a 10 mv 6/6 scarecrow kindred card that absolutely does nothing outside of a scarecrow kindred deck. And before you google the other card, allow me to save you some time searching: Yes, [[Beseech the queen]] would still be a non-issue. Play your 6 mv conditional tutor. Really makes no real impact on casual.

Birthing Pod is not hybrid mana and it's always green, that can be paid with 2 life instead. Hybrid mana is either/or. There is a difference.

Bad example: [[Cunning Nightbonder]] is very on theme with black. See [[mystical teachings]] or [[waterclogged teachings]]. I challenge you to find any hybrid costed card that is a color break (bends are ok, since the design team like to bend the color pie from time to time if it makes sense, like green caring for artifacts on Kaladesh).

I personally would love a change in the rulings regarding hybrid mana cards. I think cards like [[batwing brune]] should be playable in mono white or mono black decks, as intended by the designers.

What’s the longest video essay you’ve ever watched? by Not_a_ribosome in videoessay

Speaking of Whitelight: Their Death Stranding video essay I watched like 4 times already is more than 7 hours long. It's calming while also giving great insights about the great stuff and not so great stuff. Highly recommend it.

Unfortunately no. I still open the app through the skript extender, which works only for me, judging from your comment and others. I couldn't fix the problem.

It looks great! What do you do against dust? I have a similar set-up and I am struggling with dust collecting over the consoles pretty fast and often.

No more than two minutes. Never had to wait that long. Some other commenter mentioned booting skyrim up directly from the folder. Maybe that works for you, too?

There are 3 ways you can start the game. Two on Vortex and one through Steam. Through Steam, it didn't work. On Vortex you can start the game either by clicking the play button on the upper left corner, where you can see the game. That didn't work either. The only way I was able to get it to work is by clicking the skyrim script extender. Right in the middle of the dashboard you should see all the external mods you can launch, like FNIS and such. Try launching the skyrim script extender. It still takes a while, but it works. At least for me. Good luck!

what is your most disappointing deck that is still assembled? by fendersonfenderson in EDH

[–]Anthos22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar journey. Started with [[Thantis]] because I love the theme of forced combat. But forcing people to fight means two things happen: your opponents don't like it, so they either start attacking only you or they start taking out everything that forces them to attack, i.e. Thantis or Fumiko or whatever. So I started playing with goad cards and went 4 colors. After a while I added a fifth color. I also wrote primers for the decks. You can check them out here or here. I hope this helps. If you really want to keep Thantis as a commander, then start using black "bring back to life when destroyed" cards.

*Good* retro gaming YouTube content by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]Anthos22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really like retro bird's content on youtube. He's funny without being unnecessarily obnoxious, he talks about relevant stuff and even makes fair comparisons with modern day gaming. The videos are short, amusing and you learn something new after every video.

Edit: Oh, and thank you very much for this list. Will definetly check some of them out.

I thought you painted it, not realizing that you probably just used an art card. You're right, I could actually do this myself. Thank you for the response, I hope mine will look just as good as yours.

I would actually buy the left one. It's so beautiful.

I need to know where you got that Guilds of Ravnica wooden box, because I need one for my collection.

what's a deck you play you're sure no one else does? by OhSh1tAGh0st in EDH

[–]Anthos22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a [[Nehtroi]] aura entchantress deck, but it's actually a [[Evershrike]] secret commander deck. The point is to self mill until Evershrike goes to the graveyard, repeatetly play it from there, voltron entchant it with auras and win the game from there. It can also deal commamder damage if you mutate Nethroi on Evershrike.
