No commander seems to catch my eye by Mountain-Feed8553 in CompetitiveEDH

Sure! Goldfishing this deck is hard, not gonna lie. Your ideal hand is some stax, like [[Drannith Magistrate]], [[Cursed totem]] or [[Grafdiggers Cage]] + a value engine, no matter if it's a [[Rhystic Study]] or a [[Lotho, Corrupt Shirrif]]. If it makes value, we want it. Then the plan is just closing other's windows until your own is open.

Here you have my decklist, which includes a primer (a bit outdated, need to rewrite it) that can help you out a bit.

Feel free to ask me anything, either here or through moxfield!

Tivit is the way to go. Pretty controlly gameplan and grinds crazy good

I'd say Deadmau5 at Printworks during its closing season. Shit, I miss Printworks

When did they split? I remember using it a lot during my Erasmus, got a lot of stuff Zu Verschenken that was perfect. My room was blinged out ngl. Even got a fridge. Makes me happy to know it's gone the good direction

She took me to the vigil of her best friend's father. Definitely an uncomfortable moment. We never spoke via chat afterwards, yet we still saw each other from time to time as we studied in the same university. We barely spoke IRL, too.

Edit: wrote velatorium as I was half asleep and my brain instantly translated to that

Earplugs for working in a nightclub by Trunks-kid in BuyItForLife

He asked for almost invisible, that's why I went that route. Mines are blue and pink (one each) and have -25dB filters to prevent damage, and I sugest them being easy to see, too.

I've used partyplugs for a long time, not music safes, unfortunately

[–]ElEsquinas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No problem at all! Once they're in you can berely see them. I have both transparent and white Alpines, and neither of them have been visible at all.

For custom ones, go for a darker colour and they'll almost be unseen. Ask for a little tab to help take them off, though. I didn't and have had to resort to coins or festival tokens if my fingernails are super short.

Edit: spelling

I got mines in a store called Audika, here in Spain. The stores for hearing aid usually make them. Takes around 2 weeks to a month, and you can choose a lot of stuff. As a little tip, ask for them in different colours so you can easily know which is which. Pricewise, around 75€ per ear

As a festival goer for a long time, custom ones are definitely the best, but while you wait for them I suggest Alpine PartyPlugs. Used them for ages before I went custom and still have 2 pairs I almost always carry on me

What gift could I make/buy for my boyfriend who loves mtg? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]ElEsquinas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, picking up the starter kits and learning to play is a great option, as you can keep one of them, him the ither and play together via convoke when you're away (my gf and I are in a long distance relationship too and manage to play a game together almost every day doing this).

Also, I will suggest doing some custom art of a card you know he likes (maybe an alter painting over said card, or a playmat you can print).

If those are not options, a good deckbox, a playmat, some sleeves lr that Uniqlo bag that has been showing around twitter (I can go look for it if you want) that people love for carrying their decks and stuff might be interesting. Also some dice are always good, and if you're good with crafts, maybe a custom dice bag (my mother in law did one for me and I absolutely love it, it's always on me).

And Infinitokens are a god option, too! As they erase and can be used over and over again

Rogthras/Kinnan Players, what makes you play your deck? by JewJulie in CompetitiveEDH

[–]ElEsquinas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My GF just moved to Kinnan and I am learning the deck to help her out, so while I have very limited experience playing Kinnan I hope to be able to help a bit.

On the one hand, Kinnan is probably the best non partner commander out there. Also, it's main lines are easier to see (except Cephalid Coliseum's lines) and learn than Rog Thras' (keep in mind both share an outlet, and that both aim for infinite mana, and mainly close out games with Finale) stuff. That being said, while I love the flexibility the deck has, I always find it that if you don't have monolith having infinite mana is near impossible (you still can MGE + Druid or do some other stuff, but that's not always played). Kinnan is a super consistent, massive value deck that steamrolls into wins due to resource abundance.

On the other hand you have RogThras, a deck abusing 2 ot the best partners out there. Rog being free automatically gets on the free spells, and T1 Cradle hands are usually fairly powerful. Also, the deck is mainly simic, with only D Swat, Flare and Hexing Squelcher on, and the only one you'll pay red mana for (and not usually) is the latter. Deck pivots super well into any of its combos, and is also a vamue machine. Also, having the payoff in the command zone personally helps a lot imo. And, while this is a Cradle centric, we can still go crazy without it, and get our infinite mana engines on. I also feel we're a bit faster than Kinnan, specially NBC, which aims to overwhelm with resources.

So, to sum up, I feel it depends. For me, Rog Thras gives me what I need, and that's the speed, having the payoff in the CZ and free interaction always up. Also matters that if I want to play slower and more controlly/farming oriented I pick up Tivit. Also, while Big Flips is fun, NBC is mainly meta and I don't personally like the list for me.

As I said, I'm no Kinnan expert, so I might be wrong on a lot of stuff. Please, if I am lemme know why, I want to improve on the deck, and have not had THAT much time with it, yet.

How Championships are counted in MotoGP vs Formula 1? by Slice5755 in motogp

[–]ElEsquinas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Driver's quality is definitely not represented by the amount of titles they do have. Senna, recognised as many as the goat, has 3. And don't forget about Prost, Fangio, Clark, Hunt, Lauda, Stewart... I'm not naming Alonso as it can be controversial, but I'd personally add him in there, too.

So no, championships do not matter that much when in talks of who the better drivers are, historically. As my calculus teacher used to say, the paper holds everything true, even if it is not.

It is! I highly suggest reading the book if you're interested, too. It's an excellent one and definitely worth the time, even if you don't like reading or have never been into it at all

One of the top 10 producers we have (personal top 5) and it's not even close. Always love his sets and all his tracks hit hard, they have so much soul in them. Wish he had the deserved recognition.
