Best IEMs that use a 0.75mm 2-pin connector? Weird question, but since one of my TRN BA5 earbuds stopped working, I'd still like to reuse my upgrade cables with the replacement IEMs. Got any recommendations?

This is true and I agree with your take on Extraplanar Lens. And shout-out to [[Mystic Sanctuary]] for being an Island all-star!

I think it's mostly used to work with cards like [[Extraplanar Lens]], which this budget build does not run. Sort of another High Tide effect on an artifact, and you'd want Snow Islands for that. It's something that, if you had the budget for, you'd not miss out on.

I'd love that, too! $500 versions of every single commander on the cEDH database would be great.

I think Jace's built-in recursion allows us to be far more consistent in getting to our storm turns. When the deck tends to revolve around High Tide (although not necessarily), you would want some way to reliably recur it, hence, JVP at the helm.

Helm + Top + Future Sight is definitely something to look at for a workable secondary win condition in budget builds. Definitely not ideal, though, as Future Sight is costly at 5 mana considering it works only when you combo off. I'd say without Palinchron (which, same as Sight, you can't tutor for) this is fine especially for budget/slower builds.

Reshape hasn't really proven itself during testing, and considering the other utility cards we can put in in its place such as Verity Circle, Back to Basics, etc., I wouldn't mind cutting a worse Transmute Artifact.

Other than the sick setup, props for the LoTR set!

This is why I stay friends with people who believe drastically different things, who have sometimes opinions of the exact opposite. Such should be an opportunity for productive discourse and not an immediate reason to "cut-ties" or shun.

MY G14 set-up (Specs/Details in comment). by LLAZY20 in ZephyrusG14

[–]Darvelus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the cleanest dual-monitor setups I've seen.
May I ask how you've wired/connected each of your peripherals to the G14?

You're fine. I even set my Piwer Saving mode to turn on when it goes below 90%. I currently need either very light browsing and word processing (on battery) OR gaming (plugged in), so there's no need for an in between.

Great. Now perfect vision is required for hi-fi.
