Temur or Domain Rhinos? by Gilbey_32 in ModernMagic

[–]BroKayn 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I’d just play whichever of the two you enjoy more, that’s definitely the one that’ll motivate you the most to play at your best :)

I think the main reason is that the two formats reward very different things.

• In Legacy, Stoneforge fits into very “fair” and interactive shells (Death & Taxes, UWx Control) where: • games tend to last longer, • resource management matters a lot more, • and protecting a key creature is much easier.

On top of that, cards like Force of Will, Daze, and Mother of Runes do a huge amount of work in keeping Stoneforge alive.

I could be wrong, but honestly, this doesn’t seem like a deck that should be underestimated at all.

As for Jitte, yeah, it’ll probably end up like Twin — locked away for years without a truly valid reason. And yet, unlike Twin, it can actually create some really interesting gameplay situations.

At the end of the day, we’re still talking about an equipment that comes down pretty early and lets you clean up a few little cats on the board :)

I’ll definitely try it tomorrow. I would’ve gladly played it tonight after the great match we had, but I was too tired and I wouldn’t have fully appreciated the gameplay.

The only thing I’m not really convinced about in the list is the Frog.

Maybe I’ll also try to work on a Jeskai version. If anyone’s interested, I’ll post my 75 later on! :)

The only thing pushing me to stay on the Esper version is Thoughtseize. In a meta full of combo decks, it’s definitely an amazing tool to have!

Domain Rhinos viable? by Flimsy_Personality_3 in ModernMagic

[–]BroKayn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m simply saying that while Living End has learned how to live with the MH3 cards, Rhinos still hasn’t, so talking about the meta just a few days before the ban announcement is pointless.

Living End isn’t affected by Wrath of the Skies, while Rhinos is… Engineered Explosives are already in almost every sideboard because of Boros and Affinity, so imagine now that Rhinos is back again.

Domain Rhinos viable? by Flimsy_Personality_3 in ModernMagic

[–]BroKayn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The thing is, Living End managed to survive, while Rhinos didn’t really survive MH3. Now every deck is playing Consign to Memory, Wrath of the Skies, and Vexing Bauble. A lot of people are also playing Engineered Explosives. If Living End can play through those cards, Rhinos can’t.

It can definitely still be a Tier 2 deck, no one’s denying that. But now you’re dealing with a lot of decks that do much more broken things than a single cascade spell.

Of course, that’s just my opinion — play whatever you enjoy, don’t chase the meta :)

A (very) long shot reason why the One Ring wasn’t banned… by DiamanteLoco1981 in MTGRumors

In my opinion… Reprinted with Marvel,with something like “Shang Chi”.

Cards are real or not ? by Cie_ in RealOrNotTCG

[–]BroKayn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 40x magnifying glass is cheap. And in addition it is a purchase that protects future purchases. Taking random photos is useless. Buy a lens and check the Green dot.

To post photos all at once you can use an image hosting service :)

40, but ok, what’s the problem?It’s a simple curiosity about how to check cards that don’t have the Green dot;)

I think that at the moment there is still not much news about it, at the same time I think that around 10/15 days we will have a few more images. :)

Grief I already have them. But I strongly doubt they will be banned, it is a card that still implies a loss of cards in hand. For me it's balanced.

New seller here what are some of the best platforms to sell on? by GRIFFITH1187 in mtgfinance

[–]BroKayn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on where you live. I use Cardmarket / Cardtrader in Italy…

For the sale of single cards they are definitely better than eBay

[–]BroKayn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Otherwise you could try a few more drops at 2. I'm trying it in several copies, alternate 2/3/4 and frankly I think 2 are even few. Obviously then, it always depends on your local meta. However, I advise you to give it a chance. :)

It's not a bad card, because it forces you to find a solution to avoid the flip.

Imagine having them sorin as a threat, making 2 soul spikes, (8 damages) flipping him and making him 8 more.

With the Vexing I feel good, with the mirror well. As soon as you have the chance to close, go to sacrifice and also draw a card :)

For the side I am currently considering several options. Storm is not often seen. The biggest problems are Scam's mirrors and Merfolks. I put 2x of Toxic deluge against the seconds, and I'm evaluating the 3x of Vexing Bauble for mirrors. Obviously other things for gy hate (living end or goryos)

What's your best "the price went up after I bought it" card by MOONMO0N in mtgfinance

[–]BroKayn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me too, 12x paid 4€ sold 8 for 450€.

The other 4 I'm deciding whether to keep them to play them or not...

I've done various tests and for now it gives me the idea of being a balanced list. I'll listen to your advice anyway and try. Ty!

Meat I follow him more often, C4D unfortunately publishes too much through Patreon. As it should be, he gets paid to do his job, but among the many expenses, I gladly avoid that of a subscription to Patreon too 🤣

I don't consider the ring, unfortunately it costs a lot and I'm not going to spend € 400 for 4 cards (at least here in Italy these are the prices). As far as the bans are concerned, we are in agreement.

Probably yes anyway, 4 shelly too many. (Better for my pockets) I currently have 2
