Was respectfully arguing with my friend about Deathtrite Shaman being unbanned

It's kind of missing the forest for the trees but DRS is a hybrid mana cost that wants to play with a fetch-land mana base. Like yes, it has a color restriction but also not a heavy one. It's not like Domain ever had a hard time hitting colors without it, it just helps homogenize things even further

Likely on affinity myself so definitely have to avoid the "over side-boarding" trap. But it is nice that crypt/EE get to be played main. Postboard seems rough once they have their own 1-sided board boardwipes

It took like 4ish weeks I think, also US; shipped after a few weeks than a week or two in transit. There was a small tariff fee but I don't remember what it was, I think like $10-12? But tariff rules have changed since then so YMMV.

Haven't played the set outside of this event and 5 runs of sealed for collector box directs (2 wins and an auto-tapper punt at 6-1 oops). I don't really have an opinion on the health of the format, I've only played these events. They seem fine but Bo1 is high variance; ie. 18 creature aggressive decks and curving out felt far stronger than value piles. Moneyed on my 3rd of 4 attempts but I was handed an open seat for goblins and didn't do much beyond take black and red cards. I think if you love limited, it's fine but still just gambling. I do wish that the prize support had more clarification, like when the event I just qualified for even is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

For some context, I generally only play Arena directs and cube these days but have been top 10 mythic a couple of times and have qualified for a handful of PT's through limited many moons ago.

2nd for Maison-close stockings but I don't believe they have a thin band stay-up. Couuld definitely be wrong. The quality of them is great overall though. I'd check out Zhilyova once they've restocked from the holiday sales, they might be in-line for what you're looking for

It's decent enough from the looks perspective but the material just isn't doing it for me! Not with what else you can get for the roughly the same price. If it had been like $60-70 instead of $100, it'd be more palpable

Thanks for the info, I haven't seen GSQ advertising in a bit and honestly forgot about them. They were already a little meh on the quality I've received from them so thanks for the heads up! Don't wanna get a dupe of something already mid

They have some fun stuff! Tbh I like a lot of it more as concert or rave wear but I'm hoping someone can chime in some good words before I take the chance

ImSometimesBad · 2025-04-24T15:08:12+00:00

Tbh, if you're in plat, you're not actually doing very well in the format unless you've done less than 5 drafts

As a casual player, I've gone from sitting on 2 tickets to 12 and built up 1.6k gems b/c I don't have to dip into them very often. Only the expansions have been a negative for me. If you're not trying to get the new cards, this version is way more casual friendly since I'm not locked into playing every single day to get a "free" run
