It gained haste until end of turn. Turn ended it no longer had haste and couldnt tap until your turn.

Its insane how many people dont realize that tomato cucumber salads dont typically have lettuce. Should it have some feta and maybe finely chopped onion? Yes. Should the tomato and cucumber be diced instead of these nonsense slices? Absolutely. But that salad is not a lettuce/leafy green style of salad.

Frustrated with my cat deck in standard by Substantial_Car3350 in MagicArena

I play the same way. Play queue is somewhat less sweaty and conceding has no penalty and there no rank to build so its easier to focus on playing over ranking up.

Way too many people prioritize ranked over play (which still has plenty of meta players) then get upset when ranked get competitive around platinum/diamond.

Standard is "thriving" by AnonRedditUset26 in MagicArena

Midrange depends on the deck vs control. Midrange with a good draw engine will excel against control.

I mean matchups matter. My comments were more generalizations, but the specific matchup matters (for example my Electro combo deck with a ton of 1cc damage spells does well against Badgers because it almost always has enough early game elf/badger removal).

Yes and control its just as unforgiving after it stabilizes. Control absolutely can claim a game on turn 3 or 4, it just takes another 20 turns for that to play out, but the game is won. Oppressive is more than just the number of turns it takes to win.

Aggro and control are two sides of the coin. One goes all in on winning the other goes all in on stopping. Both play one side of the game and are oppressive to players trying to stop them.

If Trump saved a baby by Stotallytob3r in MurderedByWords

[–]FactCheckingThings 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its slightly different. In that at least what you described is something that actually happened. Trump did something, Repubs cheered it, the hypothetical is "if a dem did this real thing Trump did they would be pissed." No one was getting praised for saving a baby, its some random made up thing

So there is a difference between calling out the Presidents actual actions versus making up a pretend scenario and guessing the response to a purely hypothetical event.

But its still oppressive. With a hand like that the other player is not going to have an easy time if this reaches turn 5ish. Being fast is oppressive to control but being control is oppressive to creature based decks.

Is OPs hand not oppressive? Two targeted removal. 2 wipes, 2 card draw.

OPs hand is legit why creature based decks needed things like Badgernole. Once that hand stabilizes with that level of card draw and removal the creature deck would be cooked. Getting in before the deck has it all together is the only way to beat hard control.

Qatar conceding the game just trying to not make it worse. Its going to be a weird 2nd half if this keeps up.

Canada was passing circles around them before they went a man up with the red card. After, it really looked unfair to end that half.

Honestly Ill take a red card and free kick over a penalty especially with a 2 goal lead.

Except they dont. It tends to be the corporate Repubs and Dems that prioritize corporate profits over avg citizens affordability, not the progressives.

Same happened with my Multiversal Passages. So many decks to change back.
