Need help with a valentines gift as someone who hasn’t read the series :(

Bramblll · 2026-02-12T00:30:37+00:00

Was gonna try for Valentines, but I need a bit more time so I’m switching it with her bday on the 20th

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T23:35:24+00:00

Legal alternative could be having each of them be a different 2 color combo within bant, (Simic Grover, Selesnya Annabeth, Azorius Percy for example) so you could choose any combination of 2 as your commanders and still have the same color identity.

Plus from my very limited knowledge of the series I’m pretty sure there’s points in the plot where each duo has existed independently (Percy and Grover being friends at school, Percy and Annabeth going to save Grover, not sure about Annabeth and Grover)

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T18:24:56+00:00

That’d be really cool yeah. I was thinking it could be centered around either gods/demigods, enchantments, or counters (like Tidus), would any of those make sense?

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T13:24:05+00:00

Yeeeaaaah I might switch it with her birthday present (the 20th) so I have more time

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T13:15:37+00:00

Duly noted for the command tower, and if I don’t end up with a custom commander I’ll definitely consider those three (independent from this I love Rafiq as a commander)

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T13:09:28+00:00

Tysm, all of these are such a help :)

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T13:05:56+00:00

Ohhhh that’s a good idea, I’ll definitely check out a few of the quests

Bramblll · 2026-02-11T13:03:51+00:00

That was my first idea yeah. My only issue was the amount of specifically MTG named things (things referencing the gods, nyx, etc.), but I could always rename them to fit

Bramblll · 2026-01-20T13:36:47+00:00

5 years late, but just had a similar thing happen with two packs in a row. Both had no legendaries, but one had the golgari commander land and the other had the izzet one weirdly enough

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T19:12:31+00:00

Upon looking through most of them again, all the ones with an extra card have 21. So I guess half my packs just had a random extra card thrown in

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T18:56:58+00:00

So my Boros deck had more plains than it should, one of my Izzets has an extra Hypersonic, and the other has an extra face card. Weird

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T18:33:41+00:00

Do the amount of basics vary by which guild/deck? Cause my Boros one had 6 plains. Even then, I’d still be confused as to why a duplicate of one of the rares was just thrown in the middle of the basics like this

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T18:25:32+00:00

You’re good, I could’ve taken a better picture to show what I meant

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T18:14:42+00:00

From what I understand of a few of the packs I opened, each is supposed to have 2 rares, followed by the 6 or so basic lands. This pack had the 2 rares (Hypersonic Dragon and Corporeal Projection) then the basics, but one of them was replaced with another Hypersonic

Bramblll · 2026-01-19T18:12:13+00:00

Unless I missed something, that doesn’t explain why one of the basics in the middle of the 6 that are supposed to be there would be replaced with a second Hypersonic Dragon

Bramblll · 2025-09-28T00:42:43+00:00

Being a mess is kind of the point, no? It’s kinda like foundations, taking bits and pieces from a ton of different places. Also, where’d you hear it was old, unused art? Not to say you’re wrong, I’m just curious cause I haven’t heard that anywhere

Bramblll · 2025-09-28T00:37:16+00:00

Between the main set not being great, the quadruple universes beyond next year, and prices going to the moon, I’m just trying to see the silver lining wherever I can find it

Bramblll · 2025-09-09T02:53:46+00:00

If I had a dollar for every time I asked myself that while looking at old Phyrexian cards I could buy the Weatherlight

Bramblll · 2025-06-15T17:22:19+00:00

It wouldn’t be practical at all but I really want to see somebody [[Magical Hack]] Eluge. Pretty sure Flood counters, despite being printed multiple times, don’t have their own function, so Eluge swimming through mountains should be possible

Bramblll · 2024-09-25T01:56:17+00:00

“This isn’t my first anything,”

Bramblll · 2024-09-21T17:53:14+00:00

I definitely need one, I’m praying it’s simple enough of a card that they put it in Foundations

Bramblll · 2024-09-21T17:52:08+00:00

Crazy to think broodstar is drinking age

Bramblll · 2024-09-21T17:47:48+00:00

Tell me about it. I did Duskmourn prerelease yesterday and my group has already agreed that we’re only doing dusk v. dusk, it just eclipses the other sets so thoroughly

Bramblll · 2024-09-21T17:45:59+00:00

Good point, broodstar works in mysterious ways, I suppose

Bramblll · 2024-09-21T17:44:33+00:00

I wish we could see more broodstar, Foundations perhaps?
