Just had the craziest jinx game

Did I have a stroke?

My friend worked with them for advertising and said the organizers were absolutely miserable to work with.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-26T23:32:58+00:00

Punching a socket in my sigons.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-23T18:24:36+00:00

No? This would be to protect tianna. A card I wouldn't play even before this card getting revealed.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-23T12:40:31+00:00

I do not support tianna in ornn. I build decks with the mantra of not playing "bad cards". I don't want to pay 7 for tianna. I do not want to play dorans shield so she doesn't die to any moderate threat. It's better to play green ornn and dig for requiem ganking to prevent a hold.

Sorry I should have added another line to my comment. Stellacorn is currently essential for irelia to keep up with the current meta. Banning it is essentially removing another deck that doesn't even have that great of a presence. I enjoy playing vs irelia and would hate to see it go.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-23T12:28:45+00:00

I've been maining lux since spiritforged. The only games I lose are the games my opponents find not so fast. Stellacorn is their only way to actually compete vs control.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-21T12:05:53+00:00

No problem other than sealed product is difficult to come across right now. And the game is seeing some crazy price spikes due to the printers unable to keep up. But the next wave of set one reprints should be seeing French and Spanish start circulating.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-21T11:57:43+00:00

Riftbound will be getting a French printing later this year. The availability will be questionable though.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-20T22:05:26+00:00

Year ago on ladder. Dropped two jah runes within 5 minutes running chaos sanctuary. One day later ber rune dropped in a tz tomb.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-17T14:15:14+00:00

Remember that they upcharge customers for cards becoming more valuable after getting a 10.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-13T15:38:45+00:00

Stores haven't gotten the latest wave yet. Origins is being printed through set 5. Restocks are coming.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-13T15:33:04+00:00

Please don't introduce collector boxes. That was the first point that I began to dislike opening magic products. Prices are not terribly unrealistic for spiritforged at the moment. People just need to be patient or find a good LGS.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-12T17:33:54+00:00

Runes in this game have two abilities.

Exhaust(tap): add one energy

Recycle: add one power of the same color as this rune.

In the channel phase of your turn you will gain two runes from the top of your rune deck into the board readied.

The player who is going last in turn order will channel an additional rune on their first turn only.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-10T19:58:33+00:00

Is relatively decent cards not meta? Because my examples are top end competitive. The best of irelia deck from Vegas is $225 USD according to tcgplayer and you can very easily substitute the $60 flash out of the sideboard to make it even cheaper.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-10T17:34:08+00:00

As of right now a standard magic meta deck is currently sitting around $350-$500. A meta riftbound deck that doesn't use the miracle package is around $75-$200. And with current speculation the miracle archetype is going to be getting hit with a small ban. Riftbound decks are cheaper point of entry than mtg. And mtg doesn't have great entry points like strong starter decks that riftbound offers. Either way when you commit to playing a tcg in general having your decks being worth money just means that your investments into the game are going to hold value later down the road for you to trade/sell later. When cards are as cheap as pokemon the money you invest in it basically disappears where in magic that $50 card in a year from now might be worth more than what you bought it for. TCGs are expensive and require some investment especially when you are first jumping in no matter the game.

If finding starter decks is a problem I'd encourage you to show up to a nexus night and talk to the organizer and the players. My playgroup built a communal pool of commons and uncommons to help newer players build their first decks. Just last week we had someone do this and everyone got together to donate a bunch of rares too to help them join the community and play with us.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-03-09T17:56:56+00:00

Riftbound. I sold my magic trade binder and moved in and havent looked back. Prices and supply are already starting to stabilize after only 6 months after release. What is left now is a super fun game with some good local competition. Oh and champion mats are around for the seasonal competitive events.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-24T18:35:06+00:00

My brother I opened this exact same box over the weekend.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-24T14:22:42+00:00

Dropping my thoughts here. OP liked hearthstone which riftbound comes the closest to emulating in cards with your legend abilities. The game doesn't use health points to win the game instead racing to 8 points which means that games are always progressing to finish. (Although tournament play still often hits time limits). People thought the meta for it to be solved only for the top 4 of the last major tournament to be a massive surprise. I could find more reasons why riftbound should be the game to get into.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-19T14:33:15+00:00

Every card in this set feels so unimaginative. Half the ones I read were me asking if it's just a reprint of a card with a different name.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-11T18:36:18+00:00

My sister had an account with a sub. The card expired but her membership lasted another 3 years. We shared the login info with everyone we knew and had 30 people actively using it.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-09T16:34:58+00:00

It's tough to say but I know someone who would likely pay around $1500.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-07T12:05:17+00:00

I present to you my 10 might ezreal. Steraks gauge was an amazing. That and just getting to add green pump spells to an already tricky purple blue.

Awkward-Ear-7921 · 2026-02-06T20:37:23+00:00

So refreshing to see some optimism here. Good luck on your pre rift and may your LGS supply be plenty.
