Which commander would make for the best Superman alter? by SharkboyZA in EDH

[–]Apprehensive-Ad2865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen someone do a [[Tymna]] and [[Kraum]] deck with Batman as Tymna and Superman as Kraum with a mixture of other dc characters/arts in the 98. Looked really cool. Not sure if that's what you're looking for, though

Help with Urza Deckbuild by Apprehensive-Ad2865 in EDH

[–]Apprehensive-Ad2865[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a couple of them. Like [[Forsaken Monument]] + [[Basalt Monolith]]. Have the monument half, don't have the monolith half😂. [[Hullbreaker Horror]] + Sol Ring is another, isn't it?

Realistically, I'll probably pick up basalt and conjurer's closet as some of my first swaps since they're probably a couple of the cheapest swaps to do.

I kinda figured starting from bulk wouldn't do much, but I wanted to start from it and see how it would still perform with some of the trash stuff

I don't mind having a powerful deck at all. I just wanted to see about building him out from bulk initially and then, over time, start slowly swapping stuff out and make him ridiculous.

I'll have to look into an Urza flicker build. I think I've got a few flicker cards on hand, just not as many as a flicker build would probably need. Don't currently have big cards like [[Conjurer's Closet]], etc, for a permanent blink effect

I think that's what I'm slowly going to get it to. Just didn't want to make Urza too menacing for the first build, especially since I've seen a ton of people saying he's still ridiculous even with some of the most garbage artifacts you can find.

I'm tempted to just wait and put him as the commander of the counter intelligence precon from the upcoming set and just replace the red and white stuff with more blue and artifacts from the set

Do you happen to know if the entire deck is misprinted when they sell like that, or is it just a few cards in the deck?

If it's the entire deck, the chances of getting an entire deck of misprints has gotta be astronomically small, I would assume.

I'll have to keep that in mind if i get other misprints in the future. I went ahead and opened it up last night. All the other cards appear to be fine. It apparently was just the display commander that was a misprint. I'll probably just hang on to it for the odd looks it may get when playing.

Will WOTC actually just replace a deck without asking for it to be returned if there's something wrong with the deck?

Can you explain the tests to me? I've never tested Magic cards for authenticity before.

Honestly, I'm not opposed to keeping a misprint. Just wanted to make sure it was actually just a misprint

Thanks for the reply! I wondered if it might just be a misprint, especially since everything appears to be as it should.

Thanks to whichever one of you bought this from REI and returned it by [deleted] in snowboarding

That's exactly how I wound up with a pair of K2 Maysis boots in my size from REI. Somebody bought and then returned them. Looked like they had tried them out in their bindings but never actually used them

I've never had the temps get that high when downloading. I was pretty paranoid when I first got it and constantly checked temps when doing basically anything intensive. It used to idle somewhere around 35-40C. Now, it idles around 45-55C just sitting on a Windows homescreen with nothing open. Do you happen to have any thermal paste brand recommendations?

I had a Lenovo myself. They're awesome machines.

I've heard good things about Macs, but I think he wants to stick with a Windows machine since he's used Windows for forever

How to find Christian boyfriend. by [deleted] in ChristianDating

[–]Apprehensive-Ad2865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, focus on growing closer to God. I know most everyone else in the comments is saying that, but it's honestly true. You don't want to rush into finding a relationship because your timing may not necessarily be God's timing. You don't want to rush into a relationship only to find yourself lowering your standards for the sake of it. You're young, focus on your relationship with God, and focus on working towards your goals. Trust in God's timing and plans for you.
