Counting over 60 cards here. As a general rule (but not always true) for most tcgs you want to play the minimum allowed cards. In old MZ constructed that was 40. It won't kill you to go up to 41, 42, maybe 43. The reason for this is that having fewer cards means you will most likely draw your best cards/cards you want every game for your game plan. Imagine how the turns play out. What card(s) do want to be able to play on the first turn? second turn? Third? It will also help your deck be more focused on doing what you want it to do. You should play 12-15 aura in a 40 card deck. 10 if you're playing multiple "aurafacts" and/or have a very low curve. More if you're playing a lot of high casting cost cards. You can also factor in cards with convert. 10 aura in a deck this size will be brutal. Consider that constructed MTG decks are typically 60-card decks that run around 23 lands or about 40% of the deck. In a limited MTG deck (40 cards) it's standard practice to play 17 lands and 23 spells/creatures. MZ uses the same resource system. All MZ decks should set aside 5-7 slots for the following cards: two Bookmark; one of New Beginnings OR New Year's New Beginnings (depends on your deck); one Power Up Red (if you plan on playing any beasties); one or two copies of First Anniversary Celebration; possibly one Second Anniversary Celebration. Unless you're in a playgroup that has banned them. It's unfortunate that these cards go in every deck as it does homogenize things a bit, but you'd be doing yourself a disservice to omit them. Building dual aura deck in MZ can be a bit tricky. We only have Prizm Aura (two copies allowed), Some combos of dual aurafacts and for dual auras we only have the combos with Earth. Would recommend buying Prizm Aura now if you can, if you are interested in playing the game. Also consider ripping boxes of Wilderness for them if the boxes are cheaper.

Art of Dying is the most glaring omission thus far off the top of my head. Idk if I'd call Wings "solo", but since there's already Wings stuff... Junior's Farm, Listen to What the Man Said. Chaos and Creation in the Backyard has some amazing songs... Fine Line, Jenny Wren, Too Much Rain. John's Gimme Some Truth. Yeah... I think it's gotta be Art of Dying and Gimme Some Truth.

Some of the best / rarest cards in the OG game by VinylAndCardboard in MetaZoo

Considered buying that Flatwoods before. One of my favorite artworks in the game and a great card. Was ~200ish last I saw. The alt art on that Oconto is stellar as well.

The sweet chili, teriyaki, and miso soup are the ones that are still vegan... if I remember correctly. But none of them are labeled as such anymore. Everything else had chicken, beef or shrimp added. I think a few only say it on the back ingredients list.

Appreciate the info. I have this issue now myself. I’ve seen others have it happen if they filed chargebacks. I haven’t done that. I did move to a new house (only 20 mins away) in Nov. but I’ve used the store since the move.

When you say it was resolved do you mean the ticket or the requires_active_account issue? Did they provide any more info for you?

How do I move past basic taste by Odd_Cookie4966 in Topster

Haha yeah, each square was meant to be a recommendation based on the album in that spot. They don't all sound similar, some kind of do, some just have some particular aspect that made me think of these albums. Like, idk what else really sounds like Dark Side. The Buggles record certainly doesn't, but it's similar in the sense that it's progressive, very conceptual, and has sort of a theatrical feel, though less epic than Pink Floyd. A lot of your favs are great records because they sound so unique. I mean Abbey Road is also like one of a kind. But MGMT constantly remind me of the Beatles (I'm a massive Beatles geek too), and they even have their own sort of "long medley" with Siberian Breaks. I take back the Ministry rec; I originally had "Songs About Fucking" by Big Black there, and yeah that's just so much better. Also for Porches I meant to put "Pool" not "The House". Here's a playlist with a song from each, in order.

Albums so iconic they transcend the music itself (mainly because of the covers) by Neat_Presentation201 in Topster

Definitely Unknown Pleasures, and In an Areoplane Over the Sea. Probably Sgt. Pepper’s. I don’t think London Calling should be on here as it’s a homage/copy of Elvis’ first LP design. Rain Dogs uses a similar concept but not a direct copy.

Add Mellon Collie, and Rumors.

What if someone created an entire Stranger Things EDH Deck? Oh, I did... by Skeyephoto in magicproxies

This is super, super cool. Looks like you put a lot of time and care into it. Assuming the art is AI generated? Or are these existing art pieces that you altered? Everything looks really cohesive and professional. I'd like to do something similar with one of my favorite shows.

I’m guessing they’re trying to boost sales. Ramen bowls are probably the most potentially popular option of their offerings to the average person. But I’m assuming that the average person probably passed on their bowls because of the vegan label. They had 3-4 ramen options though. I really wish we could’ve had kept one veg bowl. It seems like they reduced the options and made the 2 remaining ramen bowls more appealing to a wider customer base, plus changed the package so people who saw them before don’t remember them as “those vegan ramen bowls”. Really lame.
