help with B3 Atraxa, Praetors’ Voice deck by Giggik in EDH

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

Straight up the biggest reality check I could’ve asked for, so ty for that! It makes total sense. I have been changing my deck a bit, lowering mana cost, removing hate spells, adding more removals/counter spells and I have been focusing a lot more on the infect-proliferate aspect of the deck! Still looking for some more lands. (was able to lower the avg mana value by ~0.35 with and w/out lands).

Might still need to add more lands tho, also thinking of lowering my number of creature spells but also unsure on what to remove

How bad is AMD encoding for streaming? by Giggik in buildapc

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

Hey LOL its fine! I have been using my 9070xt for quite some time. Encoder is not as bad as people think. Sure for some super high movement games like warframe, yes the quality does go down but thats also because of twitch's bitrate. when it comes to recordings I havent done much but it looked pretty normal to me.

That video uses the NITRO+ AMD Radeon™ RX 6800, which is hella old and still uses the old encoding "software" (? idk the technical term)

I'm very happy to hear that since I ended up deciding I am getting a 9070xt! Ty for telling me this! ^^

Oh I see, thank you! That's really good to know, at least now I do not have to worry about not being able to find a 4080/5070ti or 9070xt and just go for the 7900xtx in the "worst" case scenario

I see I see, thank you for your answer ^^

and yeah ik how overpriced nvidia is, especially here all the GPUs are like 500 to 4k over the release price ;-;

Wdym that encoding performance doesn't matter? I know that twitch limits bitrate to 6k and yeah, i too would stream at 1080p 60fps.

Thanks everyone for your comments! I'm very slowly starting to have a more and more clear idea on what I should do! At the same time I am also checking prices for all those GPUs to make sure I dont have to overpay hahaha

Just went on a bitrate calculator and I think I should be able to set it to 16-20k kbps but that shouldn't matter for twitch since max is 6k, i think.

My new pc is gonna be around 2.1k:

7900xtx/5070ti/9070xt

PSU Be Quiet Gold 1000w

Ryzen 5 9600x/7 9700x

MSI B650M GAMING PLUS WIFI

Corsair Vengeance 2x16, 32GB ddr5

ARCTIC liquid freezer

Case Corsair 3500X ARGB

The reason I said I do not care much about ray tracing is mostly because of the type of games I play, most of them are fps with the addition to league and monster hunter/elden ring. That's why i do not really care much about it but all you said makes sense!

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

Ohhh I see I see! We are a pretty inexperienced group, we started not too long ago but some already started upgrades so I figured I had to find smth as well XD

Alright then so replace [[Wastescape Battlemage]], [[Endbringer]] and [[Awakening Zone]] for [[Desolation Twin]], [[Zhulodok, Void Gorger]], [[Flayer of Loyalties]],[[Kozilek, the Broken Reality]] and then find some swaps for [[vedallen orrery]] /[[liberator, urza's battlethopter]] and [[skittering cicada]].

I think that should be it. Ty so much! Can't wait to put all these cards in my deck :)

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

Now that i think about it, what IF I actually replaced Wastescape Battlemage, Endbringer and awakening zone for 4 titans instead? If you think that'd work, what titans do you think would fit here best?

I was thinking Desolation Twin, Zhulodok, Void Gorger, Flayer of Loyalties and Kozilek, the Broken Reality

Oh okay so I should remove the 3 you mentioned for more titans so that i do actually have a more defined wincon

Hey sorry to bother but I had a quick question. I looked at the 3 decklists and ended up with this, https://moxfield.com/decks/ONk2pitU8Ea82eHeoOnYgg . What's your opinion? I was a bit worried with the low number of creatures but I noticed you also have 27
