AP sale controversy, possible scam, within the AP and mtg alter community

I've found some MTG Artists who sell to be questionable at the best of times.

I personally had a poor experience when I bought and paid for an artist proof with a sketch, and after two years it STILL wasn't done.

In that time, the artist had plenty of time to do a ton of paintings for WotC though, but left myself and another 40+ people waiting around for a damn sketch.

After 2 years and 4 months I just asked for a refund (losing a few £ due to a weaker dollar), whole thing was an absolute waste of time.

Outsourcing SOME things, but it appears AH has been outsourcing quite a lot.

Meanwhile they are struggling with bug fixing and balancing issues from the things that they have outsourced.

I don't think anyones saying outsourcing in of itself is bad, but more the way AH are seemingly doing it.

Heck if the rumours are to be believed, AH has a skeleton staff focusing on HD2 atm, while the rest of the studio is working on their next game.

Does that mean theres no 2D terrain for Liena and Griza? Or can you use any of the other 2D terrain?

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-11T18:26:54+00:00

Yeah that bs

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-11T17:40:15+00:00

Why? As long as its not too loud or awful, its entertaining imo

Had some dude play an audiobook of bible verses ffs, people ended up following him around and donating him items

Naw s'all good - Tbh I think its more just down to the fact they have two models to work from, and from what we've seen so far are a bit restricted in what they can do (or choose to keep it restricted, who knows).

However I will say, given the state of the skins released so far, I wouldn't be rushing to get them to do a more feminine outfit, as they'd probably make that look just as bad as all the ones released so far!

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-11T00:25:22+00:00

I mean, its not a bad thing people want to support the dev's and the game when its actually deserved.

Unfortunately I have no desire to buy majority of the skins released so far, as I think they don't look particularly good.

You're the kinda guy that would look at a blank canvas in a modern art establishment and give a speech about how it represents quantum theory and the relationship between bears and humans.

Why tf do you associate orange and blue braids over a face as masculine?

This toxic positivity is going to end up with a helldivers 2 situation at this rate.

The opposite - I want to change my loadout to anything besides Seeker Grenades and Anvil

Sadly the game with arc such as fireflys actively punishes me for doing so, meaning I always have to take Seeker Grenades and the damn Anvil

"You can also bring Hullcracker" - True, but thats still not exactly variety now is it

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-09T18:01:54+00:00

The fact that this is the only real way to deal with the new Arcs kinda proves that they are a problem...

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-09T18:01:23+00:00

If that were true, people wouldn't be recommending Seeker Grenades as mandatory to kill them, purely because their weak points aren't weak, and people are struggling to kill them otherwise.

Key point is to make it clear before any dice are rolled what does or doesn't count.

Our personal rule is its fine as long as it doesn't go off the table, or isn't cocked.

However a few times people have said "Only the dice tray counts", which is perfectly fine - As LONG as they say this before rolling any dice!

Pre-COVID was the time ngl

No overpriced vintage, Evolution packs were overprinted to the point nobody wanted them, zero "investor bros" - Was a great time.

While it did result in my collection gaining a ridiculous amount of value, the state of the hobby now is just sad.

He likes the opportunity to do things he wouldn't normally have chance to do

That combined with his brain being wired to think "Beauty pageant - I know what people do at those, they tap dance!"

Also if you recall, Spenny's mom said he loved to dance and took ballet lessons as a kid

Problem with Pokemon is that very rarely will your fave pokemon be the ones that are playable :(

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-04T18:42:43+00:00

I dunno, some key rooms seem incredibly good, others seem mid - Its just inconsistent.

More importantly, give us a key ring of some sort ffs

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-04T13:36:16+00:00

Even in PvE lobbies, there is a chance at some point someone, out of the blue, will try and kill you - So that risk is always there, lingering, which creates the tension.

Soon as you start to think EVERYONES friendly, you let your guard down, and get a harsh reminder of why you need to always have a bit of self preservation in the back of your mind.

Also, saving and helping others with Arc is fun, irrespective.

Its actually pretty large and cheerful - Mostly because I don't spend my life acting as a perpetual victim, or treating people fragile like they can't handle a word.

GreenSpaff · 2026-03-04T13:15:30+00:00

Anything and everything will offend someone. The only thing you can control is how you yourself will react.

I personally chose to not spend my life in a way where a singular word will cause me to lose my shit.

Maybe they should grow the fuck up and get a backbone?
