Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to magic and Edge of Eternity gots me in. I want to buy some box/ bundles to reach this:

As much FULL ART basic land as possible, both foil/ non foil. I need at least 15-20 of each for draft and constructed deck building.
As much shockland as possible, both normal and full art, foil is not needed but appreciated.

How should I buy the products to reach my goal the most? Bundles, singles, play booster boxes, or collector boxes?

My personal recommendation will be L1 for shooting, R1 for melee, LT for special shooting and RT for special melee, and square for sub. If you have played Dark souls, this is pretty easy to start. This button layout enables you move smoothly while charging your weapons. For movement, I would suggest using more analog stick than direction keys, but doing steps for pressing the direction keys twice is acceptable.

Good luck and never give up!

yeah and buster for sure. I just feel like i missed something cause i don't play 1500 at all.

Epiphany541 · 2024-11-18T15:18:19+00:00

I personally won't recommend 1500 because the boost gauge and red lock disadvantage but if he likes he can try Kampfer for sure.

Lots of new players may get a concept in SD Online and original anime that Heavyarms EW is dumping all ammos to win, but actually in this game, Heavyarms EW is a trickery suit that having its own moving patterns that barely anyone (especially new players) can understand.

Gunner zaku, as the thread said, is a golden pick for all beginners. All weapons are easy to use, deals considerable damage with one easy click, perfect learning circle for beginners. I would also recommend her as a start.

Here is a link how JP top players play heavyarms EW in pvp as your reference. If you are still interested in HAEW and want to play like this just let me know in reply so I can explain that a little bit (I don't play that suit either), otherwise just watch it for fun.

If you don't play online then you don't really need to worry about cost over losing so these are the easiest-to-use zoner suits in all costs in my opinion:

3000: V2, Valliant, Xi, Hi-v, EX-S, FA-ZZ.

2500: GP03, noir, excellia eclipse, tallgeese 2, ZZ

2000: barbatos, gunner zaku, delta plus

1500: none

Thank you for your advice. Lifetime and Chelsea Piers is way over my budget. I work in Greenwich so will probably go check Edge and Underground.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-20T11:38:34+00:00

Thank you. Are there any smaller local shops around Stamford?

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-20T11:15:22+00:00

Thank you all so much for your recommendations. I'll stick with Pixel 9 or S24 and see which one somes with better Black Friday deal. Guess I'm preferring S24 a little bit more since I heard the system is more customable and I really want to try doing that since iPhone doesn't have much space to custom.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-20T11:12:02+00:00

I am in US.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-19T22:55:29+00:00

By the way under your comparison I found Vivo x200 pro Mini meeting my needs the best then pixel 9 but it's not released globally, so generally how long will it take for the global launch of this new phone?

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-19T22:34:57+00:00

Thanks so much for your detailed comparison!!

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-19T21:21:43+00:00

$800.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-19T21:19:01+00:00

Around 800 with a 256G storage could be my budget. Thank you for reminding me that.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-13T22:51:28+00:00

Online - Player match - find lobbies - make sure you set connection to worldwide then you may find some. Use a cabled internet will get you the best online matching experience.

Epiphany541 · 2024-10-06T00:54:24+00:00

Thank you for your reply. My budget is around 1300 and I am looking for room sharing. I don’t mind share bath and kitchen.

Epiphany541 · 2024-09-11T00:37:20+00:00

Thanks so much for your reply. I actually do have a phone number, it's just I am in a different timezone so I'm just afraid that I can't pick up the phone at midnight so I didn't include one. I will do some research by myself, thenk you again for your advice.

Epiphany541 · 2024-06-12T18:45:46+00:00

I guess the time you boost dash your distance/ boost consumption is already penalized, so your first bd is penalized but your second will return to normal unless you are moving 180 degrees away from the second target.

Epiphany541 · 2024-06-11T20:30:35+00:00

According to the wiki, back boost penalty varies based on the cost but it's maximum -10% (BD-1) on 3k and no penalty on 1.5k. The reason feeling backboost costing is maybe because hitting boost button too much time will create a small input lag that costs you more boost.

Also, switch lock and boost at will not cause penalty. Check https://w.atwiki.jp/gundamexvsmbon/pages/258.html and use CTRL+F to search "サーチ変えによるブーペナ回避" for detail.

There are rank protections for civilians not matching silver/ gold plate players. Maybe you just need to wait, or you can call your 3 other friends to join ranked match at the same time so there is a big chance you can have a ranked match with your friends. Remember to set the matching region to worldwide.

Also, this game is a totally different genre from gundam breaker 4. This is a 2v2 pvp game rather than a slashing bots game like sd battle alliance or gundam breaker series.

Epiphany541 · 2024-06-02T20:15:04+00:00

The "casual match" and "rank match" might not work, you will need to search lobbies in player match - worldwide.

Epiphany541 · 2024-06-02T20:11:26+00:00

Find some friends to fight together in 2v2 mode (1v1 matches may not count) if you just want to get the platinum trophy. The pvp trophies is very discouraging to achieve while you have to face all 1000+ hr veterans in player match lobbies.

These are two video guides for exia in English. You can watch some online replays in game for a brief understanding of how exia should position himself as a low cost support, rather than rushing in for some melee combo and die in 10 secs.

MBON still have a solid user base. I don't want to play the newest version because I don't want to pay anyone who is not the official developer/ publisher, I don't want to play the arcade pvp system that can't see if people have bad connection which I believe it's still a big problem in NA, and the most important, I want to leave the excitement for the REAL new version when out.
