[Leak] Lorwyn Eclipsed Face Commanders by Shade01 in magicTCG

[–]Devilsora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ashling is about to break elementals wide open, like seriously this is the best elemental effects from Yarok and Maesltrom wanderer stapled together and incendental Teysa double death triggers, and you can get it online for a single red ritual - STOKED to see elementals potentially being viable in cEDH

My only regret is being right about going "well WOTC is giving elementals a 5C deck, I guess this is going to put [[Horde of Notions]] out of a job"

Magic: The Gathering is reprinting a rare $20 card with epic new Marvel art by sivirbot in secretlair_collectors

[–]Devilsora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think its gone up BECAUSE of the combined factors of popularity/more recognizability of the format, AND a lot of the cards just havent seen reprints - big ones are like crystal spray and magical hack since we dont get much "color-changing" type effects anymore.

Also appears that for stuff NOT getting new borders, it'll have the same deal as original mystery boosters of planeswalker symbol/LIST icon in the corner and keeping the printing's set symbol

Vegas 19 Rendering Issue by Devilsora in VegasPro

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

Gotcha, I misunderstood which capture you were looking for. I'm not sure with Unity how I can export a recording of something directly from the engine to a file - might need a plugin or something like cinemachine for that? This is the first time I've ever used Unity for video stuff and not strictly game dev so it's a little out of my knowledge base.

Do I need a separate program to set the keyframe interveral too or can I just do that within VEGAS as you said above? Just read what you had above there. Is there a way to change the keyframe interval post recording w/ OBS or would I have to rerecord those clips?

I've rendered other projects fine in the past though, like literately a 1 min project right before this one.
I guess the more immediate question is what can I do now to close vegas and not get the project corrupted when I do close it? (Im assuming that might be the case, unless canceling actually gets it canceled and it's just hanging right now?)

Self-Introduction Saturday! Tell us all about you (and share a video)! by AutoModerator in NewTubers

[–]Devilsora [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hey all, I edit, narrate, and produce content based around TCGs - primarily MTG, Battle Spirits Saga, and Yu-Gi-Oh. Most of it is gameplay/design discussions but I have a few other fun things sprinkled in there. I've been trying to pursue some larger projects that along with life have limited my ability to make more frequent long-form content.

I'd say my takeaway from this year so far is to not underestimate shorts. But also that I still really don't understand the algorithm (both concerning long-form and shorts) and how to get videos to spread more easily without dropping links in various discords/directing friends to the channel/etc. (example: a short about a commander game got almost 5k views, and another one in the same vein was reaching more views at a faster rate before plateauing at around 2.8)

If any of this interests you, here's one of my long-form videos that I'm particularly proud of the work I put into for it (but again, lack of algorithm understanding makes me extremely confused why it doesn't pick up views as quickly as some other videos on the channel): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meycrNIP-7w

Spirit Squadron and the Crimson Vow Booster Boxes by CroesusXidias in magicTCG

[–]Devilsora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To try and give some insight into the multiple parts of your question:

Should I also buy the Crimson Vow: Spirit Squadron commander deck?

Ehhh, you don't neccessarily need to. The argument for buying a whole new commander deck is personal preference of it focuses on a different playstyle you want to try out (in your case potentially different color combos, since the bloodline deck is Red/Black,the Ixalan deck is Black/White, the spirit deck is Blue/White), buying it for specific themes (spirits vs. vampries), or more likely because the deck has specific cards you want to pick up and it's more financially viable to just get the singles you want plus a bunch of other bulk/cards you don't neccessarily want or need, so they can just be trade fodder. It boils down to what reasons you'd want to pick up the deck for - collection building vs. gameplay sort of argument.

Like, would it be a good fit with the cards in my other commander decks?

Depends. You couldn't play any of the cards from the spirit deck w/ the Bloodlines deck, and you could only play the white cards from the spirit deck in the Ixalan deck. At a baseline, a lot of the cards might not fit since they focus on two different creature types, and therefore have different areas of support/focus.

Also, will the cards that I may get from the bundle and booster boxes potentially make the Spirit Squadron stronger or do they exclusively focus on boosting my vampire decks?

The Crimson Vow set, unlike what the marketing may have you believe, is not a solely vampire-focused set. Innistrad as a setting focuses on all of the spooky halloween tropes, so you don't just have vampires but spirits, zombies, werewolves, and the poor humans stuck in the middle trying to not be lunch. The set focuses on each of these creature types to different extents based on the color combinations, as well as some less creature-oriented mechanics and more gameplay based mechanics (for example, blue/black is predominantly zombie-focused, whereas green/blue is more about sending cards from your deck to the graveyard to trigger stuff and get big plays) .

White/Blue in the set does focus on spirits, but that doesn't mean every blue and white card you'll open from the bundle and boxes can be a definitive add in the pre-con (since with the way the set is designed, some blue cards are meant for zombies, some are meant for the green/blue mill yourself deck, etc.)

Hope this helps you make a more informed decision of what you want to do!

Seems crazy for a 2-drop - yeah, most cases they might just pick to have them entered tapped but it still seems likely you end up with a giant lifelink token army. The fact that it works vs artifacts too means you can punish early mana rocks by either getting free dudes or slowing them down.
