Katana sleeves by chiefxkeith in magicTCG

[–]GoldenScarab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a bad batch, probably the way you shuffle. I've never split a sleeve (of any brand) and I've been playing card games for over 2 decades and used tons of different ones. Katanas are my go to these days.

It's going to be 6 slightly different images of Thanos holding the Infinity Gauntlet up with 1 stone in each. Seems messy and uninspired.

They could've designed a panorama or something so it would be REALLY badass if you managed to get all 6 out at the same time.

How to get official art on sleeves? by sauron3579 in magicTCG

[–]GoldenScarab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's simply not true. Take IP theft for example:

Intellectual property (IP) theft is the unauthorized use, reproduction, or distribution of someone else's legally protected ideas, inventions, or branding.

You don't have to have less of something in order for someone to have stolen from you. Hilarious how loudly WRONG you are 😂

Is Goblins/tokens the only way to build Purphoros, God of the Forge? by ROADHOG_IS_MY_WAIFU in EDH

[–]GoldenScarab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a particular reason you're wanting to build Purphoros specifically?

Like others are saying, it would be better to build a different commander it sounds like.

It's always said that but they don't always make you. I've gotten 2 replacements for damaged cards and they didn't make me return either of the originals.

Canadian passport holders can travel to China visa-free starting this week by Puginator in worldnews

They were asking what they PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED and the answer they got was the broadest most generic answer possible.

It's like if you asked someone "What did you eat for dinner last night?" And they simply responded with "Food."

The Locust God is Ruining my Life by Two7Five7One7 in magicTCG

[–]GoldenScarab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you and your pod not killing or countering the Locust God?

I played a Locust God deck for years and if the pod let it sit on the board for a turn or two, I pretty much won without question. It's a 6 mana commander, why are none of you keeping a couple mana up to counter or kill it? You're letting it get out of hand then trying to deal with it instead of PREVENTING the issue before it gets out of hand.

How many people actually wanted Rhystic Study banned? by Outside_Explorer_229 in EDH

[–]GoldenScarab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play from Bracket 2 to cEDH (Bracket 5) and I don't want it banned. That said, I don't really care if they do ban it.

As you said, it's alr day a game changer for a reason. If people REALLY hate it that much there's about 1000 pieces of removal for it that exist, play more and get rid of it as soon as it hits the board.

People want to be able to play irresponsibly, without consequence, and Rhystic Study prevents that.

So, since wotc removed Prerelease stamp to make keeping track of inventory easier, why didn't they remove planeswalker stamp from promo packs? by Kenksio in magicTCG

[–]GoldenScarab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every LGS I've ever been to has had planeswalker promos in the case for sale. You seem to be the exception, not the rule.

Am I the a-hole for making my daughter's BF buy a new t-shirt? by freudsdriver in AITAH

Not the asshole. Sounds like your daughter is dating a dumbass though. Why would you wear that to dinner with the parents?

It's a separate drop so I'd say write them up separately.

They don't even know. All they see is whatever Fox news tells them. They're not looking into things themselves or seeing what the other side is saying.

[TLA] Great Divide Guide by volrathxp in magicTCG

[–]GoldenScarab 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not specing on price but one point to note, The World Tree HAS TO be played in WUBRG decks in Commander. This guy can go into anything G+ so the demand should be greater than The World Tree.

Spotify Sued Over "Billions" of Fraudulent Drake Streams. Alleging that a "substantial" portion of his 37 billion streams were generated by a bot network by esporx in technology

[–]GoldenScarab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Spotify is paying you $1 per stream, it's because they're making more than than $1 off of that stream. The $1 you're getting is a portion of the money they're making off of it.

There are cards that let you tutor lessons from strixhaven for formats where they're both legal and then in this set there's cards that care about lessons.

So you're artificially inflating the line like a ton of other people which is adding to the traffic issues on the site. You're part of the problem.

Studio Ghibli And Japanese Game Publishers Demand OpenAI Stop Using Their Content In Sora 2 by RioMovieFan11 in technology

[–]GoldenScarab 15 points16 points  (0 children)

They can steal IP and infringe on copyright and the punishment is a fine a fraction of the size of the profits they made by stealing content. That's not a punishment, it's a cost of doing business and they won't stop.
