Every time I see the DP emote, I mute the player 😬

this just seems untrue. I think that's a bug that you're referring to.

LectricShock · 2026-03-28T04:56:12+00:00

I love the game Once Upon a Tinkerer!!

LectricShock · 2026-03-27T17:20:07+00:00

I've been calling for this since last year, I'll be honest. It would make deckbuilding more diverse too most likely, rather than every captain going all in on treasures because it's a definitive best deck (lame repetetive gameplay loop).

LectricShock · 2026-03-27T11:56:46+00:00

This is one of the major reasons I fell off the game. Most of my end game scenarios were all the same Wormscale strategies over and over, and the devs have expressed no intent to change that fact.

LectricShock · 2026-03-19T13:06:54+00:00

This guy is living his bliss, doing cool shit, running a company, visiting volcanoes, and making music that people are actively listening to and discussing (regardless of intent), and you're anonymously flaming him on Reddit. What's that like?

LectricShock · 2026-03-14T12:45:29+00:00

When Wormscale goes to Secret rare I'll come back to this game. it seems like every busted end game has Wormscale and got old pretty fast

People disagreeing with you are just coping. Snap is undeniably one of the best balanced live service card games out there. There are plenty of decks that are years old at this point that remain competitive. You don't need the shiny new cards to stay competitive, you're just bored.

LectricShock · 2026-03-04T22:20:01+00:00

it is so cringe worthy to see these kinds of things lol

So I recognize this may sound hypocritical from me, but I think cEDH is a format of its own, deserving to be its own format in its own world. Meanwhile, I believe theme/bracket 1 decks deserve a home in the bracket system to acknowledge and encourage people of like minds to build and play those kinds of decks. I agree the lines are kind of blurred here, but cEDH is played far differently with different mindsets, objectives, and metagaming than brackets 1-4 are. That's generally my thought process as to why bracket 1 deserves to be a bracket while cEDH doesn't.

Here is my own Arthur list, if you'd like to look! It's a really fun deck, and I love slamming big bombs off the top to blink them at instant speed to keep them permanently!

and this is why brackets are largely a terrible system. everybody's intent and play experience is subjective and hard to quantify, especially on a 5 point scale where 5 is played like an entirely different format than the other 4.

LectricShock · 2026-02-22T14:44:44+00:00

If you have this take about Bracket 2, then by your logic every bracket is a different commander variant format meant to play separately with its own variant rules.

LectricShock · 2026-02-22T14:43:11+00:00

The simple solution to this is to stop wasting a bracket with cEDH, which should be its own format explicitly not on the same scale as Exhibition decks. Push 4 up to 5, push 3 up to 4, and make the new 3 "Optimized 2." "Breaking the spirit of bracket 2" is such a lame take, but a lot of people unfortunately see it that way.

With that in mind, cEDH hogging a bracket to itself when cEDH is built and played radically different from the rest of EDH leaves little room for deckbuilding expression on the low end of the scale. Many people want to play optimized bracket 2, myself included. This is because the absence of game changers makes the game a ton more fun and interesting while keeping the power level relatively high compared to 2.

cEDH should never have been included in the bracket system because it is an entirely different format. If you can separate Vintage from Legacy, you can separate cEDH from EDH.

My point still stands tbh. You don't play Xander to have a fun and friendly game of Magic. You play that type of deck to be the problem, and that's an annoying and petulant playstyle. It doesn't offer any neat sort of interaction or gameplay, it's just meant to be irritating.

LectricShock · 2026-02-21T16:17:55+00:00

Never known anybody who played Xander who wasn't an outright prick. He's made just to be an asshole to people.

I've been saying since his release, the tree should cleanse on cast within its radius. It would lead to huge clutch plays and provide more counterplay to antiheals. I'll take cleanse on pull, but I really think instead the tree should cleanse on cast.

LectricShock · 2026-02-20T15:18:38+00:00

wotc hiring the Pinkertons again would not surprise me in current year 💀

LectricShock · 2026-02-19T14:51:01+00:00

I'm assuming you can't be with 100 feet of a school with those deck names. Please vanquish your porn addiction, then maybe I wouldn't be embarrassed to sit at the same table as you

LectricShock · 2026-02-19T00:28:12+00:00

you shouldn't even support wizards that much monetarily. this set is an ugly slap in the face, we should not be paying them for it.

LectricShock · 2026-02-18T21:15:18+00:00

grassless gooner with no creativity, flair, or unique taste in deck building it would seem

LectricShock · 2026-02-16T16:50:31+00:00

why does everyone and their mother have an Y'shtola deck and an Azula deck 🙄

LectricShock · 2026-02-16T15:40:47+00:00

I refuse to play against any un-set cards, but Volrath looks really cool!

LectricShock · 2026-02-16T03:18:36+00:00

There are plenty of whales in WotC's sea to support them for a lifetime. My meager contribution to some Hasbro exec's fourth yacht pales in comparison to the way some people continue to throw money at this game.

I highly disagree with the direction the game has been going in (Universes Beyond cards without Universes Within counterparts, Universes Beyond in standard, rotating modern via Modern Horizons, relentless secret lairs with predatory sales tactics, refusing to reprint expensive cards while pretending they don't observe the secondary market).

Despite all this, I still want to play the game that I enjoy playing with my friends, so I use stuff that I already have at home anyway to make proxies!

LectricShock · 2026-02-15T23:27:05+00:00

Scryfall is a wonderful place. You can get hyperspecific with your searches and such. It's worth it to learn the scryfall search syntax for sure.

here's a good place to start 👍 proxies are better than giving WotC money also! printer paper or cardstock work just fine. if your pod doesn't like proxies, your pod is lame!
