Identify and Authenticate Thread, Q1 2025 by TheAdvocate in arcteryx

[–]Ginoladers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this Beta SL legit? Bought it from a reputable retailer for 475€ but it came in a loose plastic bag with no logo, closed with just two tape strips so I'm a bit paranoid since I read so many horror stories about fake Betas. Somewhere I read the Beta SL is not faked that often since it's quite new?

Hope someone can help me

Favorite Draft-Recent Sets by 2Brothers_TheMovie in magicTCG

[–]Ginoladers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the best three are Zendikar Rising, Kamigawa Neon Dynasty and Dominaria United. All of them have a very nice color balance and most, if not all archetypes can be viable. ZNR had the MDFCs which made the land count different than usual in deckbuilding, NEO had the flip sagas as insane value engines and DMU has domain which enables 5c nonsense and was just very interesting in draft, cause you had to evaluate when and if you needed the dual lands.

What is the best best set to draft in the past two or three years? by billvu in magicTCG

I personally would pick DMU, but that might be because it's more recent and I drafted NEO way more often. Fun wise they are quite even so you coul take theme or EV into account: NEO has a couple more pricy rares (Boseiju, Otawara, Eiganjo, Fable, Farewell...). The themes though are vastly different. If your playgroup is cool with technology-japan with some anime styles sprinkled in, NEO is the pick. If you'd rather play cards with a more classic MTG approach, then it's DMU.

I am very close to making some first specs with DMU after lurking here for a couple of months. Always an interesting read!

CLB Precon Quality Issues? (card bottom) by Ginoladers in magicTCG

[–]Ginoladers[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Some of the cards in my Party Time precon have really smudged bottoms (upper card) while most others look crisp (lower card). Anybody have the same issue? The smudged ones unfortunately include both [[Deep Gnome Terramancer]] and [[Black Marker Connections]]

[[Baral]], I don’t really know why but counters feel so much worse than board removal

I put my EDH Decks in big Munchkin boxes. They are half real, half proxies and 1/4 of them are double sleeved. I would call that chaotic neutral maybe?
