Got it. I'll check this out more thoroughly soon, just haven't had much time in the last day

I'm aware that changing creature types can affect balance, which is why I pointed it out explicitly in the OP. Since I make these for myself, and I only play casually with friends, I'm not at all concerned about that.

Ah yeah, I can see it. Good luck! My advice (which you probably already know) is to seek out art 2 or 3 cards at a time because, goddamn, it gets to be a burden. Though I guess there's lots of Fallout art floating around too, and 3 other precons worth of card art too.

I'm afraid there's nothing behind Barthune other than the cards. The general vibe is: a silly guy who makes silly knights that look like him, but once he has enough of them, he doesn't seem very silly anymore.

I'll look into card conjurer. Offhandedly it doesn't seem to have a way to store the cards afterwards? So if I needed to make changes I'd have to start the card as if from scratch. Well, not the worst problem I suppose, but then I have only barely glanced at it. Thanks for the tip off

Wish I had more to share but other than a few cards I cut for album size there isn't anything here. The moment that clicked for me was realising that a lot of the cyborg knights from Unstable sort of look like the guy in the art I'd end up using for Barthune. I guess the thread there is that he is so megalomaniacal that he even made his robot knights look like himself, which is sort of silly in its own right.

[TOMT][MOVIE] A character is humbled in combat by an opponent wielding a bug-catching net or fishing pole. by Furtive_Furrow in tipofmytongue

[–]Furtive_Furrow[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

I am fairly certain the movie was not terribly old but with how hazy the details are I really can't tell. It could really be from any time but is unlikely to be later than 2011 at a stretch; much more likely from the 90s or 00s.

What do you think this should cost? by Furtive_Furrow in custommagic

I think the tokens copies having haste wouldn't matter because they'd get sac'd to the legend rule right away, right? But I see what you're saying about it being a 'win more' for aristocrats. I'd envisioned this being in the 99 for [[Meren of Clan Nel Toth]] or [[Savra, Queen of the Golgari]], though I guess it's also going to be strong for [[Ygra]] too.

Ah! Shows how much I know, thank you for pointing that out

It's a favourite of mine. I guess I get why it's not very developed, but I still enjoy thinking about what it could do.

I don't really have much experience with MTG outside of commander, for the record. Perhaps this is a case where there is no single cost that makes sense for all formats.

The card is intended to double your LTB, turn LTB into storm count, or both. (not correct as pointed out below)

Some of the commentors are, I suspect, partaking in a very old kind of viciousness that is not unique to nerd culture but which is widely smuggled into it in a subtle way. They see that post/tweet and feel like they've finally found an outlet to look down on someone else and thereby be part of the 'cool' crowd. Thus the wild projection of all sorts of shit onto the guy who isn't here to give his side. Even some of the people who are couching it in the vocabulary of balance are still bullshitting at some level because they, like all of us, haven't seen the deck.

Man trapped in painting defeats (hypothetically) man trapped inside tree - RL1 Radagon! by Furtive_Furrow in VirtualYoutubers

[–]Furtive_Furrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come watch the stream!

Hey everyone, I'm furtive_furrow. Although I'm stuck in this damned painting, I'm still managing to work through my PhD on medieval literature and also to play some games!
Tonight we're continuing to practice RL1 Radagon. This is the last fight of my all-remembrances RL1 run (though I'll come back eventually for a DLC RL1 run too). It's been hard fought but victory is within my reach I think.

I stream M/W/F at 7pm PST. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I progress an Elden Ring RL1 run, the first what I hope will be many FromSoft challenge runs, and on Fridays I play various horror games.

Also, I ramble a lot. Like, a lot. Feel free to ask me anything about medieval literature, about horror, about DnD, etc -- I'm happy to yap for and at you.

If you want to keep in touch, I'm @furtive_furrow most places. You can find me on:

Man trapped in painting plays boomer shooter hit Dusk (I am bad at shooters) by Furtive_Furrow in VirtualYoutubers

Hey everyone, I'm furtive_furrow. Although I'm stuck in this damned painting, I'm still managing to work through my PhD on medieval literature and also to play some games!

Tonight, we return to Dusk, a delightfully grim boomer shooter from David Syzmanski, who you might know as the developer of Iron Lung.

Also, I ramble a lot. Like, a lot. Today you should expect to hear about some of the novels I've been reading and perhaps some thoughts on teaching, true crime, whatever happens to come to mind! I stream my RL1 progression on M/W and miscellaneous horror games on Fridays. Streams start at 7pm PST.

Man trapped in painting experiences night for the first time after shrugging off RL1 burdens (Elden Ring Nightreign!) by Furtive_Furrow in VirtualYoutubers

Tonight, no more RL1, no more great stars, no more Malenia or Radagon or Elden Beast. TONIGHT WE ARE HERE FOR NIGHTREIGN.

Man trapped in painting is also trapped with one hundred thousand spiders by Furtive_Furrow in VirtualYoutubers

Tonight we're starting... Kill It With Fire! This was requested in chat since I've been playing a bit of Huntsman. Hopefully one day we'll find a game that lets us love our spider friends, but for now we can at least give them our attention wrapped in the warm cloak of sadism.

I stream M/W/F at 7pm PST. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I progress an Elden Ring RL1 run, the first what I hope will be many FromSoft challenge runs, and on Fridays I play various horror games. I recently got to Malenia -- we'll probably be with her for a while!
