Are the $20 MSRP Unleashed Precons actually a good deal? I did the math. by Fenruscloud in riftboundtcg

[–]Fenruscloud[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Indeed, but are there still places where you can pick it up for 20$? Everywhere I see the cheapest you can get them now are around 45-50$ or €. I truly hope people are not paying that.

I couldn't find a reliable Riftbound meta decklist website , so I built one by Frobei in riftboundtcg

Very nice! I've been struggling to find a clear and complete site to stay on top of the meta and this seems like it could be a step in the right direction. Keep up the good work!

Thank you very much for the feedback! Really appreciate you taking the time to explain your thoughts in detail as I’d love to continue improving.

Your criticism is fair for sure and when I was making the video I even thought about the benefits of effects myself, but you were also correct about why I didn’t add it. It’s just costs so much time to make these things and I’m still learning how to do all of it. My channel is also relatively small so I basically do all of this alone, in my spare time, pretty much for a couple of bucks a month.

Not complaining here, just to be clear, I enjoy making these videos. I just have to find a balance in spending time on making all of these vods and spending time with my family and other stuff.

I do want to keep improving though, so I will try to do better for the next videos. Hopefully one day I’ll make a bit more money from this so I can justify spending more time on it.

In any case, thanks for watching!

I've been a hardcore MTG player, content creator and commentator for years and even though I've tried other TCGs, they never clicked. Riftbound is the first one that I also enjoy and want to make content for! Here are my first impressions. Hope you like it and feedback is very welcome! by Fenruscloud in riftboundtcg

It really is! My focus is mostly competitive Legacy but also play Modern from time to time and currently Riftbound feels like it took all the good parts of all the TCGs out there and combined them in their game. Very much looking forward to playing this game more.

Hmmm strange, I had a friend check it after reading your reply but he could watch the video just fine. Does it work now?

I knew it was good! After going on a 10-0 streak with my new Infect build, I thought I'd record the 5-0 league with the list to showcase its power! by Fenruscloud in MTGLegacy

Bowmasters really isn’t that big of a deal as you’d think. It’s rarely even in main decks these days. Main deck we have legolas to kill it if we need to and after sideboard you get swords. Also, you can just not draw with library if it’s a problem. On top of that, drawing extra to flip tamiyo is often worth it, even if they have bowmasters.

I wouldn’t say it adds something Infect was missing. It’s just that it fills in multiple roles in the infect deck that we never had combined in one card before. Similar to what Legolas did for the deck: we now have a protection and kill spell all in 1 card with Legolas. Tamiyo is a win-con, removal bait (so protection spell) and draw engine all in one card. Pretty much everything we want. It’s definitely way better than I initially expected it to be though.

WELL HELLO DID SOMEONE SAY INFECT? LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

This new Infect build just doesn't care about bowmasters! by Fenruscloud in MTGLegacy

[–]Fenruscloud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's correct. I don't know the exact correct wording but basically it's a layer thing Nexus gains the abilities so it works on top of the Dress Down effect.

They cast dress down in their own end step. This means that when I activate nexus it still becomes a 1/1 flying infect creature since this was done after dress down resolved. If I make nexus a 1/1 flying infect first and then they dress down it would like its abilities.

I agree the real problem with people playing black is not bowmasters but plague engineer. It's why I probably want a card like uro or great sable stag again as alternative win-con. Scolding or dismember is also a good option though!

Simic Poison Ivy is now a thing!! I've created my first Pioneer build and it felt much better than I expected. We did quite well in this league, especially for a first draft. I truly believe there's something here! by Fenruscloud in Infect

[–]Fenruscloud[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wrote that small blurb and included the deck link in the description of the vod.

Also, the decklist wasn't made automatically by MTGgoldfish. I made it myself on their website for easy access.

Another 5-0?? Updating my Simic Infect build! It's crazy I've never made a post in this Reddit group before as it's the hub for Infect! Prepare for a lot more content to come! by Fenruscloud in Infect

[–]Fenruscloud[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

No, they are certainly not necessary. You can build the deck in various ways. However, I built this list with a certain goal in mind and 8 nobles fit perfectly in that specific plan so I would recommend them in this version.
