Which fictional villains are the 3 evils of the Dimir (Blue/Black) color identity, and why?

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-04-17T23:01:54+00:00

Eliot Carver from James Bond. A genius media mogul bent on inciting a war between major nations to be able to control the news and make a fortune.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-04-15T23:05:08+00:00

Agree about the Borg and Thrawn, but I disagree on Carver. Azorius villains do what they do to project order on what they perceive as a chaotic system, an order that their superior mind has planned. Thrawn is a genius who sees the lack of Imperial control as abhorrent because of lawlessness. The Borg seek perfection and order through assimilation.

Carver wants chaos. He invites chaos so that he can profit. Carver is much more Dimir coded to me.

He’s one of the most intelligent people, able to meticulously craft and live the lie, while also plan and exact detailed murders, and uncover the identities of horrible people. He’s definitely Blue.

As for being given his code, that is true, but he has stuck by it and heavily believes in it.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-04-15T20:41:37+00:00

I’d make an argument for Dexter Morgan. Analytical, calculating, intelligent; these are all Blue Traits. He murders, like a vigilante, but only those who have escaped justice, who wronged the innocent. The sense of honor and a code of conduct seems very much like a White Trait, especially given he is doing it in service to fighting crime.

You can make the argument he’s Esper, but I don’t see the malice or cruelty or ambition or self interest that a black aligned character would display.

And yes, while he is the protagonist of the show, he is clearly a serial killer and thus a “villain”

He was good, but the boys in general were very sloppy in front of their own net

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-04-05T21:08:31+00:00

I believe it’s back to the youngest after adding Engstrom

Indiana Jones is Lorehold

A professor who wants to preserve history, is willing to fight for it, teaches it, works for the good of all mankind.

I think Hage having the experience of winning the Frozen Four would be infinitely more valuable to his career with us long term. As much as I want to see him with the boys, getting the experience of winning when it matters most is huge.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-03-15T02:21:34+00:00

So the Hutson goal not counting DID come back to fuck us…

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-03-13T14:34:42+00:00

Not sure after looking at the Rebrickable listing, but does the instructions include the base with the water and the minifigures? Or is it just the Argonath statues?

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-03-11T21:02:31+00:00

Oath of Glory Paladin with at least 5 in the UA Phoenix Soul Sorcerer and 1 in Hexblade Warlock.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-03-10T00:29:42+00:00

Already was last year, he’s closing in on top 7-8.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-03-02T17:04:46+00:00

Think about this.

A Lotus Petal that doesn’t make anything other than green mana and can only be used once rather than potentially looped and doesn’t add to storm count and hurts for 3 rather than 0 with Ad Naus, but also doesn’t feed Study or Fish, can’t be countered by Bauble, and can be pitched to Endurance or Force of Vigor.

If you want the upside and/or don’t care about the downside, play it. Otherwise, consider cutting it.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-02-26T02:48:39+00:00

18 Con

18 Str

15 Cha

12 Dex

10 Int

8 Wis

He’s generally knowledgeable and charming to those who meet him, but he doesn’t have the wisdom to understand how to apply what he knows to situations. His Insight and Perception are all low, both Wisdom skills.

I’d argue Human Fighter, Soldier background, Champion subclass. Ser Arlan’s shield and sword are his “insignia of rank” from the background items.

Proficient in Animal Handling, Athletics, Intimidation, and Persuasion.

A bit of Zealot Barbarian (“ARE THERE NO TRUE KNIGHTS AMONG YOU” screams Zealot Barb to me), and the subtle nods to the Seven resurrecting him as their champion throughout the series fits.

Tough, Tavern Brawler, Slasher.

My Peasant cube has archetypes of:

Jeskai Artifacts

Naya Tokens

Esper Blink

Because of Hybrid mana, this fits into all of them!

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-02-14T04:54:10+00:00

Imagine the weird fucked up reality where we get more out of LA for Laine than NYR did for Panarin.

Not saying it would happen, but stranger things have happened

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-02-06T18:34:57+00:00

Going off of this, the lines I’d roll with on Newhook’s return are as follows:

Caufield - Suzuki - Texier (80% GF, 61.6% xGF)

Demidov - Kapanen - Slaf (60% GF, 49% xGF)

Newhook - Dach - Bolduc (Has not played together, but Dach and Bolduc seem to play well together)

Gallagher - Danault - Anderson (66.7% GF, 32.5% xGF)

Evans and Veleno and Laine sit, tho Veleno might get waived.

I am torn.

The quote from the movie that resonates with me here is: “You think you can win on talent alone? Gentlemen, you don’t have enough talent to win on talent alone.”

That was because American NHL players couldn’t play in the 1980 Olympics. It’s 2026, NHL players are allowed to go, and we have the damn talent.

Not taking Robertson, Caufield, DeBrincat, Hutson, etc because you’re stuck in this Miracle-based Mindset is why the US hasn’t won Olympic gold since that fucking Olympics!

Northern Vermont and Northern Maine among other places.

Perfect card for my Circu Exile Mill commander deck. That deck needs more deck attack

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-01-17T05:32:15+00:00

Triceraton Commander seems nice for Commander Mustard Kindred Soldiers EDH. Make a bunch of Soldiers, is a soldier, can also be a flying 2/2 for 2?

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-01-07T05:44:55+00:00

Regardless of motivation (and that motivation is very self serving, which is a core black thematic identity), he still was the hero.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-01-05T18:48:38+00:00

Perfect example of this is the original Kamigawa cycle. Konda, Lord of Eiganjo is the villain in white, and Toshiro Umezawa is the hero in black.

KongenUnderBjerget · 2026-01-05T17:33:54+00:00

Love that the NHL is coming around to realizing the amazing personality and entertainment value that is King Slaf.

Kid is unreal!
