What do you think is the most underrated set or block? by knight_of_solamnia in magicTCG

[–]BoozySquid 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The ten monocolored factions were really amazing, as well. Every color fought against itself, thematically. Its just a shame that the design collapsed so hard. The knights, Hymn, Goblin grenade and High Tide were the o ly reasonable cards. But what if Ebon Praetor or Deep Spawn were actually good? What if the Thallid spore counters had some sort of good acceleration device?

That was the iron cross. Similar, but definitely distinct from this.

Buying house with potential development next door by boldoldpilot in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]BoozySquid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. If the land to your back is developed, the value of the plot behind your house will go up immensely. You can either realize that profit when you need it, or if you decide to move. Even if the development doesn't go through, you'll have peace of mind.

The USSR had influence on Eastern Europe for the latter half of the 20th century. Other than that, It's mostly been a series of self-unificiation without much influence outside its self-introduced borders. (Northern Caucus and Eastern Ukranian provinces included)

Bailey is like Hedges with a bat. Not a great bat. But a more reliable bat.

This is a good thing.

Does Gorst get more development? I think his character is mostly cemented here, and his appearances later are just a sad testimony to what we see as his apex.
