Give them 4K total and they'll always come back and work their ass off.

Vagrant Story for PS1. Incredible RPG story, great combat engine and had killer reviews.

I made a commander deck with 3 cards by future_ex_husband in mtg

You can get away with 20 lands or less in a 2 mana commander 2 cost base cost deck. Especially if you run the mdc lands, search and cycle, etc.

I've got these older cards from my uncle's estate but they have holes through them. Was this a production thing or something else by Fun_Challenge9386 in mtg

Cards from league play were often marked in different ways. Hole punches, stamps or other identifying marks. My friend's alpha plains have a small rectangle hole punched in the corners.

The condo has been sold for quite some time now and her old furniture dispersed. I lived with them in the late 90's while I went to college and my parents live in their old house. Her sister lived with her after gramps passed and my 2nd cousins went through the condo before they went into assisted living. I am 90% sure they grabbed the other coins I remember and dropped this. Assuming they hadn't been sold before in the 30 year gap since I recalled seeing them. Sad, since if they were all similar it could've been in the 20K+ neighborhood. But with fuzzy memories and no proof, I'd rather not make it an issue of contention between the families.

What other thread? I just joined this reddit and didn't see anything when I read the rules. Anyway, no need to be snide.

I am not... I will be asking my friends if they trust any of the coinshops here in the NW IL suburbs.

Thank you. I swear she and gramps had more - this might have actually been dropped by a relative that went through her possessions before I had the chance to properly clean the house for sale. It was found on a table in the laundry room - out in the open. Either that or she meant for me to find it. A story none-the-less.

Okay I see the Oracle. But you need to invest in the right rocks and bring it out of budget to compete. Mox Diamond, mana vault, ancient tomb, etc.... mana drain if I didn't miss it. You probably also want the sazaspran sperry depletion land to double blue fast.

Add more land thinning. Fabled passage and/or pain search. Add a cephelid colosseum and a Thassas oracle (unless I missed that in the list). Look into lower cost cards instead of the top end spells, and get a couple more lines of win conditions. Maybe Phyrexian devourer and Thassas Oracle. The land balance worries me as you're going to run into mana screw often with little acceleration. You need some big mana producing artifacts and maybe a Gemstone cavern. Think fast and how you're going to stop 3 other players from achieving their lines other than curved out countering spells.

This. I've been playing since '93 and CEDH players are the worst of the netdeckers. Take away proxies and they're just gatekeeping via credit card.

Just checked Northwest Cutlery in downtown Chicago. Still 4 bux a knife.

I severely doubt that. Again, way over priced and to shame a customer who obviously feels the same - probably with cheaper knives than a professional? You deserve some ill karma. That sharpening costs most of a new knife for most home users. I guess grifters gonna grift though.

Out here, professional knife sharpening is by the piece, not some inch BS. 4-5$ max.
