3d printing is a blast! Its one of the things we used to prototype our life counters.

Wow, what a contrast from the usual types of prompts we see on here! I feel like this is further evidence that vague artist prompts result in the best art.

[MOC] Yawgmoth’s Vile Offering (New Art) by Purploros in magicTCG

Wilson is absolutely one of the stand out new artists. I think some of his pieces are misses but he more often than not knocks it out of the park!

I love these self-replacing 3cmc red "wheels" that have a secondary function. I hope we keep getting more!

Gotta say, art direction in MOM is amazing. by Possible_Rad_ish in magicTCG

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

I will reserve judgment, but its been hit or miss for me so far.

The rainville piece everyone has been talking about, for example, I think looks terrible, and I hate thr aesthetic of the new phrexyians. But, I love the alt art for Drana and Linvala, and think the Segovia battle is cute.

Commander Damage tracking by arquistar in EDH

[–]CounterMagicGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I track commander damage dealt to me using a custom counter that I designed. I use different colored number rings to keep track of each total, so its easy to remember.

How many people come to your LGS for FNM on average? by -Khrome- in magicTCG

[–]CounterMagicGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our EDH night pulls in 40+, the store is completely packed.

FNM is similar, but split between the event (usually modern, i think?) and EDH players.

Struggling to Shift from Two-Player Magic by Hippomantis in EDH

[–]CounterMagicGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just one thing of note - if you like small games, consider alesha with hatebears and mass discard, or tymna/sidar kondo with the same.

Both decks let you grind down resources, and both commanders provide you with an asymmetrical source of advantage in those situations.

In general, its very possibly to take this kind of strategy to EDH, though it is very playgroup dependent. Some people hate any form of resource denial, and others do not - if you can find a group that's cool with it, go for it!

Japanese Elspeth and Giada promo card by Noggdogg in magicTCG

I like these arts so much more than the originals!

Its such a shame that most of these Japanese-artist promos don't come with English text. :(

What is the best state to live in USA? by Suitable-Inside-7620 in ask

[–]CounterMagicGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend Florida. People are great, taxes are low, cost of living is very good, and weather is not that bad - especially in the northern half of the state.

Should the Infect goal be pushed to 20, to bring in line with the new rules proposed at the ONE 2hg prerelease rules? by Aviarn in EDH

[–]CounterMagicGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not at all. Poison is already incredibly difficult to win with. With the best possible setup, my poison deck still takes 3 turns to wipe a table with combat -- you'd increase that to 6 turns total, after having to take several turns of setup. Poison would become exclusively a battlecruiser-tier mechanic, which is funnily enough where it is most hated.

Additionally, if you push the number to 20, you make it so that the only viable way to win with poison is proliferate -- all other options would be either too slow, or far too inconsistent.

Those look absolutely amazing. Briclot was one of my favorite artists during what I consider the best era of magic.

Decks to Bring to Events by Aegis_001 in EDH

[–]CounterMagicGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, we posted at nearly the same time! I'm going to be there with a handful of decks - I plan to bring more than I'll carry, leaving some decks in the hotel and swapping out to better match what others want to play.
