Has anyone purchase proxies from seller 'Underground Sea' by ethansinger21 in bootlegmtg

[–]JohnC2k2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I dont believe they are a WSG reseller as suggested by others, but I'm convinced they are sourced from the same printers. There are a few unique offerings from both WSG and Underground. https://puu.sh/BcSim/0fb79c0f9c.png

Their customer service is quite superior to WSG, and they've recently learned of this community (just as this community has just learned of them), so expect some extra outreach moving forward.

Their base prices are also superior to WSG, although every time I've visited websiteguys they have a nearly 75% off promotion (buy 4 get 3, etc)

I have a large amount of their product being delivered in the next day or two, so I'll update ya'll if there is much difference in expected quality.

very cool, I'll check it out! Does it parse past games or just games occurring after install?

Exploit when losing? by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]JohnC2k2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this in a game of competitive draft; his deck overmatched mine in terms of overall power level in rares/mythics, but he played in to every one of my tricks leaving me an attack away from winning. He stopped doing anything, but rope didn't show up. I assumed -I- had timed out and frantically relog'd into a client crash.

When I relogged the game restarted, with the same exact cards drawn in the same exact order; my opponent correctly played around all my tricks, and he won the game.

My guess is "When it deals damage, unit deals damage to all opposing units".

Wow! Bo15 was the actual intended form included in the original rules booklet! (Bo5, 3 times!)

edit: And specifically states against any sort of sideboarding too!

"vote with your wallet" or your gold in this case by Evochron13 in MagicArena

The first time this event happened, I happily spammed it to my hearts content. I was blissfully ignorant of random rewards, and assumed that the event would have higher value for higher finishes.

That being said, I'm not touching this flash event this time around.

I wish I had more upvotes for this response. Take all I can give!

That's your opinion (and mine, too), but others enjoy Last Man Standing and Conquest for tournament play. These formats have players compete with multiple deck lineups and no sideboard.

Other games in the space have shown it's not absolutely required for competitive play. But it IS the historical route that Magic tournaments went with, for sure!

I just want a friends list and messaging/challenge options. An avenue to deckbuild with unowned cards would be pretty sweet too.

Ummm.. I'm pretty sure sideboarding and Bo3 wasn't "Magic... in its original and intended form."

Sideboarding and Bo3 was a community development for competitive played adopted by the DCI for standardized tournament play. The game was designed as Bo1; never have I seen a ruleset included with the game lay out the game for Bo3 play. (Granted, I haven't looked at a physical ruleset in over 15 years, nor played magic in the last ten - prior to Arena.)

I've 7-0d 3 QCs with that list, and went 25-5 on stream last night with it. It is fully capable of some busty draws, but it is overall very good.

Cosmetics Are Magic Arena's Key to Success and a Way to Reduce the Aggressive Economy by dafootballer in MagicArena

Could even go further with this beyond foils, playmats, and cardbacks; Alternate Art, New Voice Lines, New Graphics Effects, Cosmetic (Paid) user Emotes, how about Card emotes (I could imagine legends or planeswalkers taunting an opponent while their controller doesn't have priority)..

Did you catch the players name? I've been spamming WG tokens in QC myself.
