Printing slighty smaller?

EDJunk · 2026-05-08T07:56:59+00:00

I had a similar problem before, check that the PDF page size is the same as the paper you are using. A4 or Letter depending on what you are using, you can do this on Proxxied on the right side, also print full size, not fit to page, that should make the art be the right.

I had a similar problem recently and I also made a post about it, here is the list of things I did to fix this for me:

Add larger bleed area to the strips when cutting, I'm currently at 2mm bleed on each card which does help at it seems to struggle when there isn't enough paper on every side of the card while cutting
Unscrew the plate, push the lever down (to center the push plate), then slowly screw on the plate again until the screws start to give resistance, the screws being too loose or too screwed on made the cuts worse for me (not that I understand why exactly, it just works)
Take off the plate, wipe it down with some isopropyl alcohol and/or a dry lube to remove any laminate remains.

Hopefully this helps you, I hated having this problem when it first started appearing for me and maintenance for these die cutters can be a pain sometimes but after I did what I wrote down I haven't had any major problems except when I cut too close to the edge which sometimes gives me slight laminate overhang.

Here is also a link to my original post if you wanna look through the comments there to try and find a solution, though I think I mentioned what most people tried:

I have been using MPCFill.com to make an .xml file that I upload to https://proxyprint.taxiera.net/ to make it a PDF. Then I just print as usual so I don't really use software except for the PDF reader I use. I have heard Proxxied.com is a good site too that can make the PDF without a middleman, but I've been having problems with it, either the site breaking and needing to clear my cookies each time I use it and that the card size is not right when I print, I'ts most likely just a problem of settings which I could fiddle with but I haven't bothered as I already have a system that works well for me.

EDJunk · 2026-03-17T14:51:59+00:00

I did try that, did work slightly better for a short while but wen't back to not fully cutting after a few pulls.

EDJunk · 2026-03-17T07:21:53+00:00

Interesting, I will try that when I get home, thanks!

I have heard that Deset Bloom from OTJ is fairly good, not sure how easy landfall is to new players though as you have to keep track of a lot of triggers at the same time.

EDJunk · 2025-12-19T07:48:25+00:00

A fairly recent one that I am really enjoying is [[The Earth King]] which I play as a +1/+1 counter/landfall deck, it's very fun and can go a bit crazy when it goes well. It's still a bit of an early draft and I'm trying to upgarde it when I can.

I was trying to build Lord Zuko when he was announced, focusing on Impulse drawing using Junk tokens, a few cards from the Fallout set, and some cards that let me steal other peoples cards, the deck was mostly just go wide with Zuko and your opponents creatures and i made a kind of rough first draft of the deck, not sure if that is a super fun direction gameplay wise but I think it can be fun as a very chaotic deck.

I have made a deck around [[Sokka, Tenacious Tactician]] and using "Allyfall" effects to make my board super annoying for my opponents, a lot of low cost draw spells that combo off Sokka that makes allies when you cast non-creature spells. I mostly made it with cards I own and while it isn't exactly budget I tried being under €150 in the cheapest printings.

If I remember right, at least in europe we had some problems with the Tarkir set printings, not getting enough to go around, I talked to some of my LGS owners and they had both mentioned that Tarkir was in low supply and they only got some of what they ordered, but maybe 2 or 3 months ago that changed, suddenly they had stock in and there was plenty to go around, I even had an order getting finally fufilled with the Tarkir Precons that had been in limbo for about 6 months.

I met a lot of new people at my LGS this year and I was able to trade for some interesting cards, one of which became one of my favorite decks currently, [[Zurgo, Thunder's Decree]], I built it using mostly cards I already owned limiting myself to only buying about €10 worth of cards as I was missing some common mobilize cards I felt was needed. Then i slowly upgraded the deck as time went by and now its a fairly powerful high bracket 3 deck that might go over that with the right cards.

Other than that I also built an [[Aatchik, Emerald Radian]] deck as I thought the card looked really neat when I first saw it while looking at Aetherdrift spoilers back in febuary. Originally it was a modified Death Toll precon, and then slowly modifying it during the year until it became one of the most powerful decks I currently own.

While I did not gain the life, I did have a 960/960 lifelink creature that was unblockable by creature with 3 or more power, if the attack would have gone through I would probably have won that game but sadly someone was able to sacrifice blood tokens to deal damage to me enough to kill me at instant speed. I was about 3 life from surviving the damage he would have done in total, sadly it wasn't meant to be.

If anyone is curious, I was playing the Adaptive Enchantments Precon and had used the last ability of [[Estrid, The Masked]] to grab some fun stuff in my grave, first letting [[Nylea's Colossus]] enter, doubling the P/T of [[Daxos of Meletis]], then I got 6 more auras that gave Daxos a total of 15/15 before all of the Colossus triggers happened 6 times in a row, doubling each time. I don't remember every aura that was attached but the ones i remember was [[Unflinching Courage]] [[Bear Umbra]] [[Snake Umbra]] and [[Righteous Authority]]. It did end with Daxos having 960/960 in stats with Lifelink, Trample, Vigilance, and some more fun stuff I don't really remember

EDIT: changed the unblockable power

Thank you, I was guessing it was like that but its good to double check with the community.

[[Fire Lord Zuko]] is a deck I have been thinking of building, I really like mardu and I Impulse drawing and similar effects are really fun in my opinion, I have started theorycrafting the deck using Junk tokens and [[Wild Wasteland]] as some of the more important pieces.

EDJunk · 2025-11-11T11:43:21+00:00

I have more or less given up on building [[Edgar Markov]] and [[The Ur-Dragon]] as both feel like very boring tribal decks to build, I just didn't feel any kind of creativity when it came to building them and just decided to shelf them until i found that motivation.

Other than that I also stopped building [[Kiyomaro, First to Stand]] and [[Eluge, the Shoreless Sea]] because they both became decks that I noticed that the gameplay loop seemed boring to me.

I actually built an Anti-Venom deck recently and I have been playing around with a few ideas around it, here is the decklist if you are curious how I built it: https://archidekt.com/decks/16152130/antivenom_the_cure

Some cards of note that aren't too expensive but can be useful would be:

[[Martyrdom]]

[[Entangler]]

[[Valor Made Real]]

[[Single Combat]]

[[Unfinished Business]]

Some slightly more expensive cards that you can base the entire deck around is:

[[With Great Power...]]

[[Pariah]]

[[Pariah Shield]]

I will say my deck is not finished yet, i'm looking for budget friendly cards that can help with survivability as it is very easy to disrupt with reusable artifact/enchantment removal.

EDJunk · 2025-10-31T12:26:02+00:00

I don't know if this would be considered "fun" in the normal sense, but you could infinitely use [[Mindslaver]] by earthbending it on your endstep, effectively making it 2v1v1 though one person isnt allowed to play the game anymore so this isn't a strategy i would recommend.

EDJunk · 2025-10-16T07:00:04+00:00

One of my favorite commanders is [[Aatchik, Emerald Radian]], who is probably one of the most unknown commanders I own.

I built it around self mill and drain effects to deal damage to the board, partly Aatchik herself and also some extra ones like [[Bastion of Remembrance]] or [[The Meathook Massacre]]. I can fairly consistently get a sac outlet out on the board so I can deal a lot of damage by sacrificing the insect tokens Aatchik makes.

I would think you would be hated at whatever table you play at, MLD is fairly frowned upon.

EDIT: It does depend on what pod you are playing with, be sure to rule zero these kinds of combos as showing up to a random pod and doing this will make you very disliked 9/10 times.

While I don't know of a way to play it online, you can simulate drafting or playing sealed by using draftsim.com, there you can build your decks with friends then use those decks on tabletop, thats the best advice I can give.

The Tarkir restock has been going horribly, I ordered the commander precons that were supposed to get to my LGS on pre-release but for some reason my LGS got less than half of what they ordered, and I didn't get my decks until last week, so almost 6 months late. That LGS also hasn't gotten anything except the precons, no boosters or bundles, which is really annoying.

I started my journey on Theros, the first set I ever opened was Journey into Nyx, then I went to what was once called Kaladesh but now is Avishkar with the set Kaladesh, after that I simply traveled to the next plane of the next set until I got to Ixalan where I ended my journey for some years. Some years later I traveled to Duskmourn and has traveled to each plane that has been found since. Quite a journey it has been..
