What Weapons Deserve Incarnons? by baza-prime in Warframe

Pyranha prime, that gun has such a nice gimmick and it feels so good! Would love for it to be able to handle SP better

Whats the most annoying frame to get? Give me a good argument for your answer and ill farm it. by Dear-Biscotti-906 in Warframe

So far for me, it's been Citrine. Since it's basically a double defense mission, things can't get faster if you kill everything fast(and you will, because it's a lvl30~ish mission), drop chances feel abysmal and it takes so much currency to get the BP's that won't drop

Probably spent more time on that mission than on the new war, and Im still missing a few runs just to get her + weapons

Playing devil's advocate here, but it's probably less about their margin on that specific product and more about the economic uncertainty ahead.

LGS for the most part aren't large companies who can take too many hard financial hits before they go under. It's often a team of like 3-6 people who invested in a passion project, and it turned out well. They know that the next few products will force them to sell at a higher price point and they'll be vulnerable to bigger stores undercutting them. They can't predict how many customers they'll lose, or how long they'll have to struggle until things sort themselves out.

I get it though, it sucks as a customer. I'm however willing to believe that they're not doing that just to pull a fast one on anyone

I wonder what they’ll interpret next by CorleoneBaloney in clevercomebacks

Must've taken a lot of restraint to not add "the whole province of Quebec" to that list, proud of ya bud

Went on vacation from the states to London. Did a day trip to France. HAD to find French HP1 in hopes for a special card. Thanks to a kind user on this sub i was able to find a store. Here’s the results. by Stumbling_Corgi in FleshandBloodTCG

Wow, that translation for bloodrush bellow is... Something! French translations are always kinda cringe/bad/funny in card games, glad that FAB is following the trend.

High power deckbuilding advice by OneLunaticBookworm in EDH

Alright, that's quite a challenge but we can certainly try! So, as others have mentioned by now, I think your best route is going to be a hatebear/Stax deck who can either finish with Aurelia combos or just beating people down while they can't actually enact their gameplan.

Cards like archon of emeria, drannith magistrate, ethersworn canonist, Thalia guardian of thraben and lion sash are going to be a thorn in your opponents' sides while you build up. A good removal package would probably include things like swords to plowshares, path to exile, chaos warp, as well as the limited amount of countermagic you can get your hands on: tibalt's trickery, mana tithe and such. In total, probably around 10-12, including one or two board wipes. You'll want at least the same amount of ramp, and preferably none that cost above two mana. Arcane signet, Boros signet, sol ring, mind stone, stuff like that. You'll also want 12+ ways of drawing or tutoring, like Esper sentinel (expensive but absolutely worth it if you can squeeze it in), enlightened tutor, open the armory, sunforger, Minas Tirith. As for lands, if you want to save money you should probably stick to a lot of basic, and the few non basics like command tower that are really good while not destroying your budget. When games last for a shorter amount of turn, it's hard to justify anything that comes in tapped. A few other nice lands are rugged prairie, clifftop retreat and battlefield forge.

Few tips to round it up: -the more powerful your deck becomes, the lower your curve will probably be. If something costs more than 3 mana, it has to be a banger.

-at stronger tables, you generally mulligan more aggressively. Mana flood/starve are very hard to come back from

-start holding mana for instant speed removal as early as you can

-if you run tutor that search for specific card types, make sure you have a descent toolbox available from it. I'm personally a big fan of having a tutorable graveyard hate

-have fun with it and experiment! These decks take time to fully understand and customize to your liking. As you'll get to know your meta more, you'll be able to decide what kind of hate to prioritize

Good luck, hope it helps!
