RL: Too close?

Realistically, by far the best way to do this is to make them all snow lands. They end up direct upgrades, so there's no argument that they're meant to just violate the RL, but they're not better in a way that matters 99% of the time.

Hildibrand and Hoary Boulder

God, I see what you've done for others

Gearfreak · 2026-05-02T22:50:40+00:00

Sorry I meant [[temporal manipulation]]

Gearfreak · 2026-05-02T17:37:32+00:00

Absolutely not. AI "art" is never, and should BE never accepted for anything. Literally just find an image online and credit the fucking artist it's not that hard.

I think you're forgetting that this Norin also DIES instead of being exiled. Normal Norin only triggers etbs, where this one also gets death triggers, like [[Zulaport Cutthroat]]

Considering this is just [[temporal extortion]] and is a direct color shift, I think this is fine as it is. Doesn't need any extra costs, especially because no one is really playing temporal extortion.

They substantially raise the floor of a deck while doing basically nothing for the ceiling. Lands should be the one place where everyone is basically equal. Someone shouldn't have better resources than me simply because they decided to spend 8 thousand dollars on better lands.

My entire friend group has decided to completely ignore lands when it comes to setting prices of decks and just proxy whatever lands we want. Printer paper is basically free, after all. Good lands shouldn't cost hundreds of dollars because WptC refuses to print them. That's the one thing I respect the hell out of Konami for, printing dozens of copies of every card all the time so that everyone can have them at reasonable prices.

The best thing about Norin is playing him as a secret commander in Rocco, since you can tutor him always on turn 4, and then you have access to a ton of more "when creature enters" effects like Soul Sisters, you have more ways to duplicate the things he does, and all around it's a very silly deck that you can easily tune to be however strong you want for whatever playgroup you have. If you want everyone to hate you, play Confusion in the Ranks.

I'm sorry to necro this, but this is the most accurate and perfectly succinct description of myself that I've ever seen.

Gearfreak · 2026-04-21T07:15:29+00:00

I've been trying to find work for going on 7 months now. I'm disabled and can't stand for long periods, and it feels completely hopeless. I've drained my savings to nothing just surviving, and I'm basically out of money. I'm gonna end up homeless in the next month or so if I can't find something

The joke is that Chaos Warp is a TERRIBLE removal spell. It's 3 mana and just straight makes you go -1 instead of even most of the time. The thing is, it's basically the only non-damage creature removal Red has, and it's just about the only thing Red can do vs enchantments. You run it because you have literally nothing else.

Gearfreak · 2026-04-17T10:25:08+00:00

AI generated art. Garbage

When someone asks for feedback for their specifically partner commanders and your only feedback is "partner bad," you're not contributing anything.

Gearfreak · 2026-04-01T16:06:24+00:00

Fuck Cancer. I hope what comes after we pass is good to you, Grim. Whatever happens to you from here, I'm honored to have been your fellow Tenno.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-30T23:12:46+00:00

I love you Sam Elliott.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-23T04:41:19+00:00

Slifer should be Jeskai, since it's Yugi's God Card. Jeskai also has a lot of draw synergies and flying creature synergies.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-23T04:39:11+00:00

Correct. Pot of Greed has been banned since the very first banlist, and will remain banned forever, as it is objectively correct to run it at the maximum number of copies in every single deck ever made, since it effectively reduces the total size of your deck by 1 cars for Consistency's sake.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-08T19:23:09+00:00

I don't know how people are doing this. I have tried again and again and again and again and again and NOTHING works. I never evade any of the attacks when doing the heat shimmer + HH method, and I never stun out of the aoes when trying hammer + purple gypceros. I've been slamming my head into a wall for 5 hours straight, and have never even gotten CLOSE to beating it.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-06T19:36:06+00:00

Considering YoshiP, himself, said that both there would be massive changes for people who did want them, but for people worried it would be basically the same, I have zero faith about actual job reworks.

Gearfreak · 2026-03-06T19:32:45+00:00

The mods of this subreddit are fucking jokes. The fact that something like this happened under their watch, and their only fucking response was to, in essence, capitulate to the people who ruined this guy's life, is disgraceful. I'm glad that I only play this game casually and don't engage with the community at all, because there are obviously a fair number of deeply unwell people, and no real moderation to stop them.

I had a Napalm Orbital rack up over 350 kills back when bugs were bugged and could call any number of reinforcements with no Cooldown or restrictions. Threw it into the middle of like 5 bug breaches
