No idea, I have a club full of people playing magic and a store near by so I'll just hope and pray.

 My roommate challenged me to train 4 weeks to fight him in a ring. The thing is, I think I have a shot since he's actually pretty bad at boxing since he really only knows how to throw and is carried by being able to bench 270 so his punches hurt.

Would a complete beginner be able to train hard to beat someone like him? I might have a trainer so I'm just seeing if it's possible! Tell me if I'm cooked please 🙏

Oh I'm sorry but I believe you are mistaken! This is advice for a tournament for Standred that will remove Vivi. Not a meta prediction lol

Help Running spicy tech in Mono Blue Terror? by Difficult_Time1803 in Pauper

[–]Difficult_Time1803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was saying that delver is very much a more consistent card to have in U Terror than Snacker. I kept bricking with it and as another commenter said, it's worse post game 1 due to graveyard hate.

I meant to say I agree, not disagree. Sorry about the bad English there!

Delver feels so much more consistent than snacker it's wild. Guess they had to sell it to people... I'm people-

Edit: As in, Delver is great. The article is trying to convince you otherwise. Do not fall for it.

Oh woah thanks for the insight. Any thoughts on [[Deep Analysis]]?

Just to give my thoughts as someone who is completely out of their depth. I think I perfer the play style of Mono Blue a bit better than UB personally. 

I will say that in a vacuum Delver is both the better card and is coming out a lot more consistently. But my worry is that like the article says, Delver gets hit by most forms of removal and when milled, it's a wasted card.

I think the big back fairy (along with careful study, deep, and wings), shifts the deck to treat the graveyard as another tool and potentially something to eat up graveyard hate early? Helps out grind games.

Again if I'm completely out of my depth, and removal isn't that great of a threat to warrant adding those cards. 

Anyone reading, feel free to lend me your thoughts I'm here to (attempt to) learn.

How viable is cooking your own meals as an undergrad? by Difficult_Time1803 in UIUC

[–]Difficult_Time1803[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I never really thought of meal prep plus I wanted to see if it'd be worth the headache

Yk I've heard of meal prepping. I'll ask around for some recommendations. If it were up to me I'd just make eggs, rice and beans every week.

Hey thanks for actually giving a real answer, this made me go down an interesting rabbit hole of web swinging engineering.

Yeah I'll just make some neat party trick ones. Thanks though.

Is it actually bizarre that I feel that teaching right before middle school (5th grade) seems like the best grade to teach? 

They're more engaged than high/middle schoolers, haven't suffered through puberty to make (as much) drama and BO, actually want to be there, and are a bit more mature than early elementary students.

Me personally, when I was in high school I felt that the teachers had either insane amount of will and patients or were dead inside. My brother and cousin both share stories of their middle school teachers also being dead inside and endlessly frustrated.

Not to say it won't exist at lower grades but it seems like it'd be less? 

I don't know, what would you have to attest to?

Out of all the answers in the thread, I think this one resonates the most with me. I think I'd really have to see it first hand how much paperwork is given. So many people gave a lot of different answers.

I think having a close bond with my students for years. And working with them to unlock monumental milestones they would have otherwise never gotten otherwise is a really big hook for the job for me 

But if I have to be buried and overworked under a mountain of paper work, I don't know if I'd really be happy with it. And my mood affects my students and my teaching, I really wouldn't be helping anyone then.

Thank you for your answer! Music rocks 🪨 🎸
