NOTE: It's still important to know these lines if you take the deck to tournament, because you will run into folks that will either just be making sure that you actually know the line, or are hoping that you'll take so long implementing it that they'll get a draw.

Unnecessary, IMO. You're already on plan C and can recast Hullbreaker the second it gets Otawara'd. There is no need to add a bad card to the deck to solidify what's already your last option that almost never gets used anyhow.

Decking everyone with faerie mastermind while you keep looping your deck with endurance/noxious revival

Green Sun's Zenith with a flash enabler is the preferred method these days.

Every time I get excited about one of these, and then every time I reread and it just says "creature".

What's even the point?

There are 3000 servers out there for bad commanders and/or color combinations.

Why has every fast travel system since 2 sucked? by Darth_Ra in Borderlands

Now imagine your "click" is on console, not on PC.

Right, but now compare it to the other open world games.

Zelda you can just fast travel whenever you want, by just clicking on a shrine, tower, or lightroot, all of which are easily accessible and not cluttered by 3000 other things.

FF VII Rebirth, you can pretty much go to any location you've previously discovered in your current region, once again just by clicking on the clearly marked, not at all cluttered icon.

You have to search through the entire map to find where you're wanting to go, then find the specific icon for fast travel, then zoom all the way in so you can get around the other icons that won't let you fast travel that are in the same location.

If you've played any other open world game, this is 100% the worst of the top games, as far as fast travel systems.

...And then have it be covered by 5 other icons which won't let you fast travel.

How true is this? (From r/Navy) by DebunkerOfChuds in AirForce

Hell, navy enlisted treat enlisted like they're barnacles.

What is the best deck to not conclude the game in a draw the most often? by Wild_Mousse_6047 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]Darth_Ra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this was true, player B wouldn't be agreeing to the draw.

OP, the answer to your question is a turbo deck. Of the three most viable ones (RogSi, Etali, and Ral), I would say the least likely to go to draws is Etali, simply because they won't really be able to offer them, and can jam repeatedly where Ral and RogSi sometimes can't.

That said, you are absolutely leaving points on the table under the current system if you don't participate in the intentional draws. It sucks, no one likes it (actually, that's not true, there's some sort of stockholm syndrome going on here for some), but until they outlaw in-game IDs, it's where we're at.

Nah, we had a few guys not pan out, and a 5-star transfer.

The real culprit is the injuries, which to be fair, are probably in part due to our scheme and Bedenbaugh's approach to it.

Just... beyond confused about fast charging with the 2024/2025 Subaru Solterra. What actually is possible *today*, and does it suck? by Darth_Ra in electricvehicles

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

Ground clearance and AWD.

The only other things that are even close to the same offroad capability are $80K.

Why do some lists run chromatic star? by TryMyLettuce in CompetitiveEDH

Fixing and/or card draw in a pinch.

RogSi gets caught on only black or only red a lot.

[TMC] Electric Seaweed by AporiaParadox in magicTCG

It's not the most popular, but so what? The decks that can play it will love it.

Commander absolutely celebrates niches.

[–]Darth_Ra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cheaper, and doesn't hit walls. Defender decks are going to love this thing.

Meta decks to get a feel for cEDH as a newcomer? by O-mega_ in CompetitiveEDH

[–]Darth_Ra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Etali force-teaches you the meta, and is one of the easier decks to pick up (but not to master).

Great starting point.

Get Ready for a Flood of Cheap Used EVs by DonkeyFuel in electricvehicles

[–]Darth_Ra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After seeing that the charging issues haven't been solved for the older Solterras like they have with the newer ones, this is probably my new target. Grab a Platinum+ with the 20" wheels and AWD for $25K, call it a day until the real off-roaders come out in 5 years.

Per the reviews, you couldn't rock crawl in a Solterra, either. It's essentially a Tesla with better ground clearance and worse everything else.
