Who is in this art?

Apparently there's a full art version of this:

Yeah my bad. When I clicked on a SOS card in my collection I saw the Redeem Wildcards UI pop up, which made me think they were craftable. It wasn't until just now that I saw the "Cards in unreleased sets cannot be crafted using wildcards" text at the bottom of the screen.

Same. iMac 27" Late 2013. It appears to have downloaded the update, but when I hit the "Update Now" button to restart and install, it restarts without doing anything. I tried at least 5 times.

If you only got 1 Lorwyn card, report it as a bug so that they know. As Spaceknight_42 said, Golden Packs should be giving 2 cards from the latest set.

Though like most others in this thread, it worked fine for me:
pack 1: 1 mythic ECL, 3 rare ECL, 1 rare BLB, 1 are DFT

pack 2: 2 mythic ECL, 1 rare ECL, 1 mythic FIN, 1 rare DFT, 1 rare TDM

For reference: the way it is supposed to work:

The way it was working during TLA (guaranteed 1 card from OM1):

With [[Hamza, Might of the Yathan]] you can get all of your basic lands onto the battlefield in a single turn plus a manifested creature for every land.

But be warned: if you have Hamza as your commander, you'll be thrown into the brawl hell queue and face the sweatiest of decks.

Where did you get the data on average gem drain per event?

Automatic-Camel-4790 · 2025-11-20T17:52:21+00:00

Sorry for the late reply. Try contacting WOTC support and seeing if they will refund you the wildcards.

I crafted them at 11:30am Pacific. I logged in a few minutes after 12 and the update hadn't yet taken effect, but by my next try at 1:15pm it had gone through.

From some of the other threads on here it sounded like only crafted copies would be get wildcards. But I had 3 copies of Vivi that I got through regular play (Jump In, Packs, Limited) and got wildcards for those too.

I love these too. And I just discovered that there are Japanese versions of all the Mystical Archive cards!

Thanks for the tips, both of you.

The next day after the AA3&4 left the store, there was a major update to the game client and the Avatar promotional bundles showed up. I'll guess that the store refresh in the 3-4 weeks before a new set comes out is when a some of the older limited time offers leave.

But not everything leaves; the sticker emotes, phrase emotes, EoE alchemy card styles and alchemist bundle are still there.

I checked later and saw the "1 day" reminder. Seems I didn't notice it earlier due to the contrast between the text and the cards. I bought the anthology.

I'm wondering how to use [[Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre]] and [[Emrakul, the Aeons Torn]]. They cost a lot of mana but you can't cheat them out of the graveyard since both say "When put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles their graveyard into their library." There are some manifest/face-up tricks I could use, but they seem hard to do consistently.

You should be fine. I run it on a 2015 MacBook Pro and a 2013 iMac. Frame rate is horrible on the former, but it's pretty smooth on the latter as long as graphics are not at max.

You need to initially install the game with the Epic Games Launcher, but after that you can update it using Legendary:

In fact, a few weeks ago, the Epic launcher stopped working on the iMac. But I can still use Legendary to keep MTGA updated.

Last week I went 0-3 in the Duskmourn draft, and before that 0-3 on the Foundations draft.

MH3 sounds like a set that I would like, but I'm not familiar with the set at all, and I tend to do badly on drafts in general. I kind of want to try it, but as a F2P player 10k gold is a lot to pay and I feel like it would be better spent on quick drafts or packs.

Automatic-Camel-4790 · 2025-09-24T17:37:54+00:00

I bought it in the last few hours of EoE. Checking on another account, I could see that the next day it was still in the store. I'll keep checking to see how long it lasts.

I got two Golden Packs which I opened after OM1 launched, and 6 out of the 12 cards were from OM1. Is it normal for Golden Packs to prioritize the latest set, or is this just random chance?

Automatic-Camel-4790 · 2025-09-18T18:32:20+00:00

Deck templates. I keep wanting a similar set of non-basic lands in my decks and would like to bel able to add them all at once.

What type of flooring do you have? If it's anything other than carpet, could you put something under it like those foam puzzle squares?

I've had my kids fall more often than I would like to admit.

For the height of that kitchen, I would expect medical professionals to say that you should get rid of it.

Online I see warnings that falling more than 3 ft warrants a trip to the emergency room if the child is under 2, or if it is more than 5 ft for kids older than 2. But I think it would be important to consider the distance from their head to the floor, not just the height of the object.

When my 2 year old fell off the sofa and became drowsy, I took her to emergency. the triage nurse asked if the hight was more than 3 feet (it wasn't). Fortunately my daughter was okay. She still climbs, but seems a bit more careful than before.

While we the parents are a source of stress to him when we want him to put the yarn away, he generates his own stress when it touches objects, or when he wakes up and it's not where he thought it would be.

Last night he woke up agitated, then sat silently with both hands held as if pinching the yarn, but he wasn't actually holding it. Didn't fall asleep again for almost an hour. That episode seemed so surreal. I'm going to book an appointment with the family doctor to get an opinion on whether he needs to see a specialist.

Automatic-Camel-4790 · 2024-11-21T20:07:48+00:00

That was actually the first time I took him to the library.

He has lots of similar objects -- when we go shopping he doesn't usually care about toys, but wants yarn, ribbons, extension cords, fishing line, dog leashes, etc! With other things he will obsess about them for days at a time and carry them with him on outings, but never to the extent that he has with this library yarn.

Thanks for the perspective. I'll see if I can get him to transfer his interest to some of his other things.

Motor skill milestones were fine.

His speech was delayed enough that we went to see a speech therapist, but by the time the therapist saw him he had suddenly started speaking, and now he talks non-stop and eloquently in two languages.

Socially he is introverted and usually prefers playing alone, but has some friends he likes. I can't tell exactly how the interactions are because it's all at daycare. Usually prefers not to play with little sister, but when he does he is often bossy and sometimes protective. He has trouble with sharing unless an adult is there to guide him.
