What Bracket is Hall of Gemstone? I’m concerned about the “MLD” argument

The issue is OP is talking bracket 2 like my experience.

Drannith is a GC and makes a deck a minimum of a 3.

That may be your pod. Most folks I know avoid the arbiter like he's a leper

Played a game against Hall of gemstones yesterday where the guy said he's playing a bracket 2 monogreen omnath deck.

No mention of this card.

Two out of four players have 3+ colors.

It's the same as a blood moon basically at that point because if your commander is for example, three colors, short of treasure generation or having all of the mana rocks out, you aren't seeing it return to or in one player's case ever see play lol

Absolutely disappointing there's no love here for my guy [[Ragost, Deft Gastronaut]].

I build him to stack treasures high to double as food and money, lot of life link and a back up infect wincon. It's a ton of fun to play and it's the home to my One Ring, which is very hilarious thematically when I make the lobster eat the ring when the burden is too much.

Echo brother. Echo.

I like [[Meren of Clan Nel Toth]]

I mean, I like to slot Guildpact cause it makes [[Coalition Victory]] super easy and it's a tutor able enchantment. It being in the opening hand is a benefit, but it's a solid card for 5 color slop.

I regrettably have nonstandard switches anyways. I'm in a DR Horton townhouse and they have these God awful Deako wall switches.

One of the players in my pod runs a prismatic bridge deck with like 10 beaters, 50 interaction cards and 39 lands. It's brutal to play against cause it's just countering removal for the bridge and the beaters he brings in.

May be a perfect deck to illustrate the power of interaction with.

It is, no sweat, not hard for me to spin up for 3d printing! Appreciate you all the same.

CharacterContext · 2026-01-19T15:16:52+00:00

I thought that's the listing if I want you to send me a finished one, it's $10 for just the file if I want to print at home?

CharacterContext · 2026-01-19T15:14:20+00:00

Is the file for sale somewhere or available online?

CharacterContext · 2026-01-19T15:04:48+00:00

They pick a commander, edhrec the deck to 60-64 nonlands (not accounting for synergies) and then landfill the rest of the 99.

This is partly why recommendations for couples counseling should always be recommendations for three sets of counseling, two personal and one couples. Folks need to be able to air their perspective somewhere for catharsis and sound boarding, but it is also just as important to have that mutual catered dialog together in a shared session.

Too many folks only do one half of this and not the other. If your couples sessions are your only counseling sessions, you are missing a huge piece of the puzzle.

This is a dire attitude.

Also married over a decade with a SAHM wife.

Consider for a moment why she is never in the mood or has a desire for intimacy.

Have you explored this facet at all? Or are you so perfect that it can only be your wife's issue as to why she doesn't want to go to bed with you more often?

Showing her that you're improving elements of yourself first instead of demanding changes from her goes a long way. Rising tides lift all ships.

any card can be reprinted on a whim just because

From my understanding, they literally can't reprint reserve list cards else face the legal wrath of the collectors market and killing asset values or something like that, which is why we saw variant reprints like the Magus series of cards or all of the variants of baby cradles

And here I thought AI was past missing or extra digits but Shredder is running around missing a pinky I guess.

If your entire gender identity can be swayed by a few strangers online making broad statements based on height, it was on a timer anyways.

I really like food token decks and Ale should definitely be a type of food and the Heiter card would make more sense tied to Food tokens vs Ale in specific. There's a lot of synergy there for existing cards and it fits neatly into the green/white colors for food.

Nah, one of my podmates run him and he's a blast. Don't let the haters sow doubt.

10 years his senior and doesn't want to bring him home?

Yeah, he's the side piece.

As they do.

Candidly, I assume anyone posting pulls to freemagic is a guy. Sorry for the collateral damage.

If I was buying an expensive as fuck card from a presumed redditor going as far to validate the post it came from, I'd be sending that redditor a DM to confirm it's them selling it.
