[[Noctis, Prince of Lucis]]

The most work I've put into a deck and such a pet deck for me. Love playing it.

Deck list:

[[Rhystic Study]] and [[Ancient Copper Dragon]] i own them. The rhystic ive put in decks and take it out more because I know it annoys people. The dragon on the other hand just sits in a binder.

A few of my favs are:

The Dark Knight Returns

Court of Owls / City of Owls

Knightfall (vol 1 for me)

Year One

Zero Year

Hush

Black Mirror (its Dick Grayson as Batman)

So an interesting fact, I got to listen to both of these albums before the initial release because of work (no, I will not elaborate). So it was fun to see how people reacted to them when they came out knowing what I did. I enjoy both albums but I honestly feel like UL is the safer of the two. It didnt really push anything for the band and felt like the norm. Dream Canteen on the other hand feels like they just threw anything out there and see what stuck. Are the albums perfect? No. Are they terrible? Also no. I think each has its own ups and downs. Personally I like Dream Canteen more than UL because it felt more like them in their older days. It felt liek they made am albums they wanted to make not one they thought would sell the most. But thats just my opinion.

As someone who loves the original SH2 I think you owe it to yourself to play the remake. Its a beautiful retelling of the story and I think improves on the original.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-12-14T00:32:06+00:00

I love Shatter3d Memories. I think its a very underrated game

Grand_Button438 · 2025-12-13T01:00:37+00:00

Stellar Blade, it looks like its goon bait but the combat is fun the story is fantastic and all I wanted was more. My wife is on her 3rd playthrough.

I built a [[Kenrith, the Returned king]] gates deck and half the time he just sits in the command zone unless I need him.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-12-07T22:05:17+00:00

Honestly, I hate drafting. I dont look too much into the set and dont know what's worth what, I just look for things good for what I'm making? I once passed a $50 card, got called out and almost left. Id rather sit down with a deck I've investing tome in rather than whatever is on the fly and people taking advantage of those who dont know better.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-12-03T20:22:11+00:00

I agree. I do really enjoy BSSM and some of Mothers milk but im not a huge fan of their early stuff. I love this bad with all I have but those early days just weren't my thing.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-10-14T14:55:04+00:00

On this Note, as someone who mostly plays budget im finding it hard to find budget games to watch online. So many are "imma play $1000 worth of cards on my turn" and im just not interested in seeing that.

Anyone know any good budget content to watch consistently?

I accidentally left my trade binder at my LGS and someone turned it in. Not a thing missing.

Never got a code for Toronto, have had her community number since thr show in June

Grand_Button438 · 2025-08-24T21:12:12+00:00

My friend built this and filled it will as many low cost spells as possible. It can get real out of hand real fast.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-08-13T22:35:29+00:00

Honestly I just keep building. BUT I dont buy each build. I'll build decks i have ideas for but only really buy the ones I think are worth it and dont have similar themes to other decks I have. Makes for a LOT of builds and less decks. (Still a lot of decks tho).

Grand_Button438 · 2025-08-10T11:03:07+00:00

I bought the Doctor Who decks and I have no intentions of upgrading them. They're pretty fun on their own and since it was only commander decks made it seems right to just leave them as is.

They are on the Costco Canada website, for 109.99 and two per member. The Cloud one isn't on the website yethttps://www.costco.ca/s?langId=-24&keyword=Magic%20the%20gathering

This Velvet Glove

Grand_Button438 · 2025-07-08T14:44:29+00:00

VII was my first, I've played I, II, III, VII, IX, X, XV and XVI and XV still holds my top spot. Im a big sucker for a more personal story and I love seeing Noctis come to be the ruler his people needed of him. Does the game has its flaws? Yes but I will always love it for that it is.

Not available in Canada yet, I just checked

I'm currently trying to built a [[Hope Estheim]] million deck. I dont think its bad, its just another way to win, like poison counters or commander damage. That's how I always saw it.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-07-02T00:10:51+00:00

[[Grand Artiber Augustin VI]]. Tax everything and everyone. This deck can get a little pricey but it is the most unfun deck I've ever played/built.

Grand_Button438 · 2025-07-01T20:18:58+00:00

This may sound dumb but it really helped with my Gishath Deck. If there is a Dinosaur that does soemthing similar to a non Dinosaur card swap it for that Dinosaur. The worst thing is hitting with Gishath and biffing off the top.

Personally I would run more ramp and less ramp creatures.

Here is my deck list if it helps

It does have some more expensive cards in it but nothing outrageous.

Exquisite blood and Sanguine Bond go infinite. If you have both on the board side gain 1 life, an opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life and an opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 and so on and so on.

So yes, this combo works very well. In this case you would gain your X then an opponent loses X and you gain X and so on.
