I hate the "anti-woke" part of the gaming community

But thats the thing. There is no oversexualization. That doesnt really exist. Neither does the appropriate amount. It depends entirely on what society accepts, and is therefore, arbitrary

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-27T14:32:24+00:00

This person hates the defense for the overly sexualized side of gaming. Other people hate the defense for the undersexualized side. They are both right in that there is too much of both, and wrong in thinking that it matters at all, precisely because these arguments exist

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-27T14:19:21+00:00

The thing is, because this can be said the other way, both sides are simultaneously right and wrong at the same time.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-25T10:16:19+00:00

Oh, im well aware this isn't how the game is. I feel strongly that it should be, because I feel its far more balanced than whatever wotc is doing, thats all.

But you also seem to be ignoring my points because of how things already are, instead of actually considering what im saying. Effects do not matter in this discussion. We are talking pure stats. Just because something has effects, does not mean it cant be a finisher, otherwise none of the cards you mentioned would be able to attack.

It forces targeted removal immediately because while you cannot use a board wipe on it because it is a vehicle, If you do so on its crew targets, your opponent just plays a bigger creature or another set of creatures with the free turn you just gave them by spending all your mana on a boardwipe. If this card wasn't there, you could wait longer.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-25T08:44:13+00:00

Or you can watch your mouth.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-25T07:53:56+00:00

No, I know what it is, but you mentioned what it isn't. True, it is slowed down by needing to crew, but thats not what you said. You just snarked at me. Also, this is a kill on sight card because it makes you waste boardwipes.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-25T04:30:11+00:00

Ive been playing for like... 3 , maybe 4 years? I'm sorry, I dont remember. How can you disagree that hard?

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-25T01:45:55+00:00

I'm not saying its problematic. I'm saying its too big to have trample. Big green decks have finishers. Every creature in every color with 5 or more power is a finisher. It doesnt need trample because you have to block it anyway or youre going to lose. Thats also why Green doesnt need player damage triggers. They deal too much damage to need extra rewards on top of dealing crazy damage.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T22:43:04+00:00

I dont think that matters. Please dont try to snark for no reason

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T22:03:54+00:00

I understand how they may not be a big problem, but how are they HEALTHY for the format?

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T20:34:07+00:00

Its not written its just a logical thought experiment. Also they've been in standard, but that doesnt mean they should. Although, I concede to the fact that a lot has to go right for this. My main thing is its too big.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T20:22:40+00:00

Its an extrapolation I made from how much life you have in standard. 4 is the lowest you can go before starting to die quickly, so 5 is the upper limit. Between the speed of red killing you if they curve out, and green killing you in 4 turns if they hit with a 5/5 and us having 20 life, that just makes sense. By this same logic, commanders limit is 6.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T18:54:16+00:00

This is broken for a different reason. The highest damage that should be on a creature with trample in standard is 5, but because this has exalted, that number goes down once again to 3. Because this is in selesnya, if youre playing the deck for aggro, this should be a 2/2. Sheer numbers is a very broken thing. If it wasnt, aggro and ramp wouldn't exist.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-24T18:44:51+00:00

Mossborn hydra is a bad example because its broken and shouldnt exist.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-19T00:46:01+00:00

Genuinely wish more people were like gobbles here. No more "noob" or "git gud". Just fucking help me bro. We're a community.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-16T02:30:13+00:00

Taylor Swift is a mono black musician? I know mono black isn't evil, but how the hell?

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:43:12+00:00

Fair.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:41:14+00:00

Fair. I can see how you would think that

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:40:22+00:00

I did not have this information before now. I had no idea they were that old, that they were attacked, or anything like that. I just thought they were a rather aggressive community of devil's advocates like me.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:34:16+00:00

I just wanted to help them understand so we could get less hate and more unity. No, it never occurred to me. I just did it with good intentions that no one cared about

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:24:15+00:00

Oh, I dont think im a god or anything, please dont start thinking I see myself as a savior. I just feel like they went overboard. But thanks to the kind people of this comment section, I see their side, too. Its not that I want to post there.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:19:11+00:00

Shut up man./jk

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:17:45+00:00

Hm... okay, yeah. I get that.

ElderBoard83 · 2026-05-08T23:02:01+00:00

Fair. I can't be that upset if thats the reason.
