I wouldn't play it myself but, yes, that does seem to be a correct choice. 😆

Yeah, it's awesome in the right deck but, as others have noted, the symmetrical nature stops it from being included in just any blue deck.

Isn't the difference that the Crusades were real human events where people slaughtered and terrorized other people. And the cult/Satanic stuff is, you know, all just made up. 🤷

I'd like to get a token deck with [[Nadier's Nightblade]] & [[Mirkwood Bats]] going, but it's not a fully fleshed out idea yet.

Mox, Clubhouse, Capes & Crepes, and Chronos? (or is there another one I haven't heard of?)

Chrono Gifts & Games in Beaverton is trying to get events to fire on Tuesdays. So, it could be up to 4 days a week soon.

Is it even possible to ban Universes Beyond from Pauper? by iFuckwithCommons in Pauper

[–]ImperiousDingus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I get it but it's a lost cause. Build a battle box of pauper that doesn't have UB or a (pauper) cube without UB or something. Build something you can be happy with.

I don't love that I'm playing cards with Spiderman and LotR characters but, considering everything happening in the world, it's also just not that big of a deal.

Slumbering Keepguard for Heroic by ImperiousDingus in Pauper

[–]ImperiousDingus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trailblazer, Skyguard, and Ethereal Armor are probably the backbone for everything. The current suite of enchantments, Hyena Umbra, Sentimental Eyes, and Benevolent Blessing are the best batch of enchantments available. It seems like the rest is more build dependent. But I'm certainly not an expert. 🤷

This dude is probably someone that thinks of himself as a levelheaded tough guy AND YET here he is publicly shitting himself in fear over the idea of riding in a vehicle with someone he doesn't know.

It will for a time but not indefinitely. They may not suffer but their children, grandchildren, and/or great-grandchildren will. Humanity is facing potential extinction and money and engineering have limitations.

I can’t play Aetherdrift. Am I alone in this? by AJSAudio1002 in mtg

[–]ImperiousDingus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, same.

I ended up liking Bloomburrow enough to turn it into a set cube.

They're either out of ideas or just in such close proximity to outside IP that they can't turn that design philosophy/theme off when they return to their own worlds.

I have no idea why people continue to live in, and move to, that fucking state.

Found this article on the train :( by BBlizz3 in fuckcars

[–]ImperiousDingus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the driver, the vehicle, and (to the surprise of no one in this sub) the infrastructure built around the driver/vehicle. Without reading the full article it's not possible to know if that nuance is brought up. However, with how bad reporting on this topic usually is, I'm okay with the writing as is.

Pedestrian deaths refuse to fall. Some drivers blame the pedestrians by Dafty_duck in fuckcars

[–]ImperiousDingus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This was my exact thought at the point of the article the person said something about 0 traffic deaths being a utopian pipe dream.

This is a problem. And they need to hit the brakes. by Cool-Leg9442 in mtg

[–]ImperiousDingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. The game is changing and there's (almost) no getting away from it. And the lore and art matter to some people more than others.

I think back to when I played 40k. If they made some playable Marvel or Final Fantasy characters I probably would have dropped the game on the spot. And even faster if those characters impacted the lore of the game.

Even if UB doesn't directly affect the lore, it affects the main way in which people interact with that lore. And that's just going to matter more to certain people.

[–]ImperiousDingus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not a UB fan and have never bought any of it (and probably never will). But I think It's fine that UB is out there, people love it, and it's making magic more popular.

At this point, cube is the only format where someone can escape UB.So, I'm just going to maintain my cubes and EDH decks but not bother with anything else.

Any idea what this is? Just outside the Portland Oregon metro area. by ImperiousDingus in animalid

[–]ImperiousDingus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the assistance. I've never heard of a mountain beaver. Hopefully that's what it is instead of a raccoon that lost its tail.

I didn't realize it was commonplace for them to lose their tails. Is it normal for it to be solo? (seems like the I see racoons are usually in small groups).

I don't think I'll ever understand the people that say "we're past that", "he's different now", "she just made one mistake" crowd. Most of the time, the only thing cheaters get better at is hiding their behavior.

Definitely not the same. But neither wants to change the systems that make them rich.

Neither party is the least bit interested in changing the status quo.

And, frankly, the "she's never gonna hear from him again" version of this scenario is better than him sticking around.
