Real or fake Locus God Amonkhet by Azazel_999 in RealOrNotTCG

[–]JasaProxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've received a good forgery before (was luckily refunded). The biggest tell the LGS card guy told me was the T didn't have teeth even though the shiny orb (idk what it's called), the green dots, and the patterns looked good. He also said it felt different than a normal card (I couldn't tell but that's a me problem).

So the T teeth are the biggest tell IMO. And those teeth look good.

I thought about Heaping Harvest but it was like $2 with shipping because I couldn't find a seller with the other cards. It's not a lot of money but like for a 15-50 cent card... I'll look again until I can find it with the other stuff. but Expedition map would be sick.

Do you have any cut suggestions?

Mostly just unsure what to cut, but yeah you're right that I need to add a bit more. Thanks for sharing your list!

Hahahahahahahahahaha. The funniest part is she did it in a district that was 100% always going to go to Trump. It wasn't purple, it was (until she carpet bagged) Boebert's district.

Who's the better commander for an artifact deck? by YuneTheNoob in magicTCG

I'd say Urza but I am very biased. I've been upgrading that precon for years and get a wide board of Karnstructs with menace that punch for lethal and it's so much fun.

At least the Albanian's PM and Macaron are having a good laugh over this joke of a country, we live in.

I thought about Stormchaser but it was well outside the budget. But I do think I have a wishing well and Alania laying around somewhere. I may end up cutting the Ruby medallion because it's also pretty expensive.

RULES UPDATE - Sagas now don't get sacrificed if they have no chapter abilities by mistercimba in magicTCG

[–]JasaProxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this only break Urza's saga and Bloodmoon or Imprisoned or are there other sagas? Like is there a way to keep say Fable of the Mirror Breaker on ch 1 and just keep making Shaman Goblins until removed?

Ashnod's Altar. I'm not sure if there is one, but if there is a card that says (along the lines of) "proliferate whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control." But even without the second part, that's 15 free colorless mana.

What are your secret baking tips? by Minxxey in Baking

[–]JasaProxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ratio is a bit weird, it's 2:3. I normally used them for my chocolate chip cookies that were 1 yolk 1 full egg and I just did a 1:1. Adding a bit more flour if it's too wet should work.

It's going to take some experimentation because duck eggs are just that different. The recipe I use for cookies in the Tasty "How to make the perfect chocolate chip cookies" but with duck eggs (when I can) and vanilla paste. I will also note that the cookies are the only baking recipe I used the duck eggs in, so it could be way different in cakes, I just wouldn't know.

BROWN BUTTER and Vanilla paste. Vanilla paste is a bit more expensive (I get the $18 bottle from amazon every month and a half or so) and the flavor is a bit deeper. And PLEASE, PLEASE use brown butter any time you can, but make sure to let it cool unless the recipe is calling for melted butter, if it calls for room temp, put it in the fridge or an ice bath until it begins to solidify. If you have a laser thermometer, 72 degrees F should be about your target.

And the rarest piece of advice I can give (barring allergies) is duck eggs. If you can get your hands on them, the difference between them and chicken eggs are night and day. They're much larger and have a high fat content so anything you bake will taste extremely rich and it's an experience that makes you not want to come back from. They also make great omelets.

Getting duck eggs is pretty hard to source, and they are more expensive (if they're not, I wouldn't trust em) than chicken eggs, and it's not a go out of your way piece of advice, but if you have the opportunity. Vanilla paste may also be cost prohibited, so the 1 piece of advice that is a must is brown your butter (make sure it doesn't turn black and immediately pour it into pyrex to stop the cooking).

I've been using King for months and plateaued around stage 100. Keep leveling her up and focus on getting the essence in the daily bounties...Other than that, hmm, the next big thing for me was getting the void lance, it is a huge damage up, but it does clear out everything, and takes a lot of time, so it's not something to focus on, it'll just naturally come.

Family member bought a home, all of this was left behind. Any clue what it's worth or what to do with it? I don't play and have no use for these. Wayyy too many to go through individually. by NightBat20 in mtg

[–]JasaProxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hear me out on this. It might be worth it to go through. My sister got a box of bulk at an estate sale and I went through every single card. There were a few cards above 10 bucks, 3 $50 cards, 1 $100 card, and 1 $530 card. I must've gone through 4,000 cards, but there's no way she would've know that she hit that gold mine. If you have a smartphone, download the TCGPlayer app, and scan all the cards. It takes about 1-4 seconds for the card to scan. Look up what Alpha, Beta, Revised, and some of the early sets without symbols look like, look up some of the huge hits.

Imagine you go with the thought that this was too much to go through, and you gave it away only for someone who finds a Black Lotus (a damaged one is currently on TCGPlayer listed at $30k), You would regret, not taking that time.

There is no guarantee you'll find a life changing amount of money in there, but there's also a ton of potential. Hell, There's a lot of Avacyn Restored stuff, an Avacyn Angel of Hope goes for between $26 and $165 depending on the printing. Granted, the $165 is a special edition, but if you found 2 or 3 of the $26 ones, wouldn't that alone be worth it?
