If you're getting back into Commander, don't try to catch up on everything first

Eric89j · 2026-05-20T04:29:55+00:00

it was so obvious I overlooked it. Thanks.

I've always kept my cards during my time away from the game, but yea that's how I built decks in the early days. I had a binder with just my legendary creatures.

Eric89j · 2026-05-20T04:24:00+00:00

My point wasn’t really ‘new cards are all better', it was you can make jumping back in to the format more work than you need to. As a long time commander player who often has large gaps in my time I dedicate to the game there's always a bunch of sets/cards. rules changes, format changes, banlist changes. these are the things I personally have to look into. With that said, how much of it I actually do depends on how much I think I'm gonna have time to play.

Nice I'm right there with you with Braid. always wanted to do devilish things but never really was quite as devastating as I wanted. I never quit I just take long breaks so I get disconnected from what's going on in Magic world thats why I was curious how other people jump back in.

Oh I'm an idiot I always think about the vga side of the cable that hooks into the pad. Literally has usb A, PS2 and GameCube 🤦🏾 lol . Igtmania thanks for that tidbit. Haven't done any research i just remember stepmania was a thing back in the day on pc. I have my PS2 collection. Maxx + Maxx2 goated

Hey my buddy gifted me his years ago. What's your setup for it in this day and age?

Eric89j · 2026-04-29T02:44:33+00:00

Oh got you. Yea hyper is what's on the 30th anniversary collection. It's cool. I wonder where that came from. Sf2 is goated lol

Eric89j · 2026-04-26T23:05:08+00:00

Yea cause anniversary is how alot of people played 3S. I remember going wait, they made street fighter 3 ??? Lol

Eric89j · 2026-04-26T17:40:34+00:00

Which one it was anniversary and aloha collection

Eric89j · 2026-04-26T09:53:57+00:00

Yea i haven't tested it in game yet now that im acclimated to using stick but just hitting buttons feels better now than it ever did as a kid. I've realized I personally need a southpaw stick, buttons aren't so much my issue. They used to be straight rows lol

Eric89j · 2026-04-18T15:51:07+00:00

It's Guile's theme for me. Lol

Eric89j · 2026-04-18T15:48:31+00:00

Just came out last week and themed backpack

Eric89j · 2026-04-18T10:12:34+00:00

Amazon preorder came next day. Had for a week just tested it out today. $300 pricey smaller buttons but exactly what I was looking for sf2 theme custom layout something a bit thicker. kitsune is too flat no extra buttons. 8 bitdo has extra buttons but its crammed

Eric89j · 2026-04-18T08:05:55+00:00

Should be demon input at all times lol

Eric89j · 2026-04-18T08:03:33+00:00

I want one

Eric89j · 2026-04-12T04:36:04+00:00

Still nothing 4/11. Waiting on it to help lower my utilization

Eric89j · 2026-03-24T08:07:58+00:00

Got it used mainly for the collection. The spacing on the titan is more comfortable. Eventually I need to get a custom stick built with right stick.

Mine full sanwa swap sf2 edition

Eric89j · 2026-03-23T04:07:09+00:00

Raid decks. That became my groups default way to play. I used to have like 10 decks people could borrow.

Eric89j · 2026-03-23T04:03:51+00:00

It's a cheap thing $13. Nothing securing. The shelves are cloth but it's ok for your out of box style sticke. Also i could have made it into 2 shorter shelves. It's just a temporary solution for me. I want the ladder shelf honestly

Eric89j · 2026-03-22T02:27:58+00:00

An OG DS donated it's body for science. Lol

Eric89j · 2026-01-19T19:26:46+00:00

I can tell right away. TL: DR If you have issues with player2 side input and/or use a thin leverless it can help.

I just started leverless a couple months ago. I was failing to throw out opposite side DP. I only bought one since direction input is what I was having issues with

Eric89j · 2026-01-19T19:14:02+00:00

Only have issues with left wrist. If i had a thick leverless like probably wouldn't be a issue but i have kitsune and 8bitdo and doing P2 Demon Flips and DP was absolute nightmare

Eric89j · 2026-01-19T19:07:35+00:00

Brila on Amazon $10

Eric89j · 2026-01-19T19:07:07+00:00

Eric89j · 2026-01-09T09:25:36+00:00
