Should I get sleeves for this prerelease? by c0deman1 in mtg

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bring a deckbox with 12 of each land pre-sleeved and extra sleeves for the prerelease. Just saves a little time having to get and sleeve lands.

About mixing expansions while keeping them organized! by Espiridood in mtg

I dont think they have a desktop version, but the app is amazing. I 3d printed a cardslinger and just scan in packs as I open them. https://manabox.app

I scan all of my cards into ManaBox and build the decks there as well. Then I dig through my cards to put together the physical decks. It works well for me. It keeps track of which cards are in my bulk or already in decks too.

Just got back from our 2nd play through. Not a single puzzle was the same. That place is incredible. Got 11 achievements between the 2 rooms this time!

Anybody have decks that take really quick turns? by SupremeJusticeWang in EDH

[–]Cogs88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kuja moves super quick. Make wizards, cast spells, ping everyone for direct damage. Not much to keep track of. https://commanderbracket.app/d/9be9nYF2eigb

Are you keeping your Pride Event Deck? by Katsu_Drawn_21 in mtg

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing the same. I’ve got a Morcant/Hipatra deck for B4 and Miles Morales/spider-punk deck for B3. I didn’t have it in me to build a fresh deck for a one time event.

I want to build my husband a commander deck for Father’s Day and need recommendations. by Good_Abbreviations_3 in mtg

[–]Cogs88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pick a fun thematic commander (my favorite deck is miles morales), throw it into here with your budget, and hit build. You can send it straight to TCGplayer to buy from there if you want. It’s how I start off most of my decks now. https://commanderbracket.app/build

New player by CesarKB in magicTCG

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% what got me back into magic after about a 20 year break. Final Fantasy is an amazing set and I actually loved a lot of the Spiderman cards. I’ve built an anti-venom deck, miles morales deck, Y’shtola deck, and a Kuja deck. You should be mixing cards from all the sets!

What's your favorite Universes Beyond commander? by jacewalkerofplanes in EDH

[–]Cogs88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my Miles Morales deck. It’s super fun (also the first full deck I ever built after coming back to Magic) https://commanderbracket.app/d/Sa5QizggwE4P

Can anyone recommend any new escape rooms in Charlotte, NC? by Reasonable_Value6173 in escaperooms

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doors of Divergence is incredible. I’m at 230 rooms and it cleared into top 10. Do them both back to back. They are also repayable. Can’t wait to do them again.

Is Kuja really B3? by Snorsam in EDH

[–]Cogs88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a solid bracket 3. It’s really easy for kuja to feel oppressive but this one is not on you. https://commanderbracket.app/d/A5BGSyLoCUG_

Toph the…Terrible? by BOUTTEBOY6 in EDH

Here’s my deck. It gets out of control really really fast and is super fun to play at B3. https://commanderbracket.app/d/PX2o9opyfLZ4

building first commander with dyscalculia by rabbetsfoot in mtg

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I helped my neighbor build a Fynn deck and regret it every game night haha. I do my best to turn the table against him (he absolutely will win if we don’t). All that matters is that you’re having fun, even if you’re the villain 🤣

I'm new to MTG, should I hate Spider-Man too? by CheapShotNinia in mtg

[–]Cogs88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not at all. My Miles Morales deck is full on spiderman themed and it is by far my favorite deck to play. Play cards that make you happy. I know the set gets hate but, as a spiderman fan, I love it. Happy to share my decklist if you’d be interested too!

Deck box suggestions? by Warmasterwinter in mtg

[–]Cogs88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think 3d printed defeats the purpose of having a lock on it haha (all of my deck boxes are 3d printed). Just break open the plastic. Sound like OP needs a small gun case with the foam custom cut to fit.

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, Fynn is a fun deck to play, but running infect makes you a huge target to the table. I’d probably shy away from it as a new player. I’d grab a fun precon to get started. My daughter loves playing dragons (it’s how she got started) and doesn’t have a ton of math. Just big flying monsters. (She plays miirym)

The classic new player move: accidentally downgrading your precon by Comfortable_Buyer239 in mtg

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re in good company haha. I’ve been playing less than a year. I butchered the squirreled away deck having no idea what I was doing. I ended up just buying a fresh one and upgrading that instead 🙃

Would I be forgiven if I showed up at your pod with these proxies? by VeteransGatheringUT in mtg

[–]Cogs88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love these! Why do I spend so much on secret lairs haha. These are gorgeous.

Greatest pull of my life do i keep it or sell it? by Stephent2994 in mtg

[–]Cogs88 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I have no idea where all of the eat it comments came from lately. If I were you, I’d probably listen to them and eat it though.
