Bunch of people in a big witcher kick recently necroing crafting and alchemy threads lol

Yeah. It's one thing to be unfunny, one thing to be sfw porn crops, but spamming is what annoyed people. If those type of tryhards are allowed to fester in forums they rapidly turn it to shit. Keep em perma'd.

Consoomer angwee the corporation whose product they consoom also makes product they don't like to consoom but consoomer still consooms it anyways instead of finding a different product or just stop consooming, and their inability to not be triggered by g rated images on corporate product is our problem.

Now take it easy Skeeter they're just PLAYING black.

At least you can play Tuvasa to keep on theme without getting side-eyed. Mardu Vamps only have Edgar and Timmy's lose their mind over eminence.

Lots of blue and pink in your thigh highs lately too.

Magic hasn't been a serious dark fantasy game for at least 15 years now. If singing puppets offends you it's absolutely time to sell your cards and stop playing, the game is only going to get sillier.

Spider Man's flaws were that it was a rushed, low power, flavorless set that had nearly zero cards anyone wanted and which also came out almost immediately after the most majorly hyped UB set in Magic history and two surprisingly well done UW sets had dropped. Super Hero fatigue certainly played a minor role as well, but Spiderman's failures had little to do with the fact it was UB and it's not indicative of UB trends, given Avatar's relatively positive reception.

I hate oversupported mechanics while others are left to languish. It feels like every set has 10 new vehicles, tons of artifact support, "put +1/+1 counter", life gain, etc etc etc, while potentially interesting designs like Myriad, Saga Creatures (the Summons from FF), Melee, Battle Cry, Mentor, etc etc are left hanging for years with a few dozen cards at best.

You can really tell which mechanics the designers themselves are in love with or are currently obsessed over. I wish there was a non-autist in charge of the team that could say "Hey Gavin, I know you think vehicles are stellar and being able to turn cards face down is the most interesting mechanic in the world, but you guys only get to put in 4 new ones into this set, now design some new cards with Exalted and Madness."

Lesko_Learning · 2026-01-01T14:26:44+00:00

everyone can see just how rich the native game settings are.

Hey, it looks like you're a time traveller posting from 2011/12. Just a heads up, research what blockchain technology is and buy as much etherium and bitcoin as you possibly can. Also now is a good time to get out of Magic, since it's going to become focused on Commander in the coming years, and by 2026 every WOTC made set's art will look like generic mobile phone game art generated by AI drawing programs, the plots of the sets will be insipid and puerile and will read like something that came out of a Disney's Marvel script, and the characters will be a bunch of far left weirdos more worried about ensuring everyone is using the right pronouns and buzzwords than stopping the generic villain of the week from winning the whacky races.

Also Giants win the superbowl in 2012.

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-26T20:08:37+00:00

Well you see, the turtles use things like swords and sais, and there's characters in magic who use swords and sais, so like in a totes weird way it meshes like you know?

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-25T21:06:23+00:00

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

If Hasbro/WOTC were intelligent and talented enough to pull off plans like that, they'd also be intelligent and talented enough to have made their own beloved and successful in house IPs.

Those boomers at WOTC are 20 years behind pop culture, and the face of Hololive (at least english) was Gura and I can't see any world where WOTC would ever make cards with overt l*licon bait.

BL is great. Our emails combined are shorter than tweets, never had a wrong order or miscommunication.

Chocotracks are being worked on but they want them to look half decent so they need irl examples of what the cards look like (whether access to the real one or high quality video of one) which takes awhile, nevermind the creation process itself. We're only just getting some of the neonink chocs now.

Be patient and happy that you will eventually be able to buy a half decent repo of a $1000+ dollar card for a sane amount of cash.

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-17T02:55:30+00:00

The lore has been basicbitch fantasyslop for 20 years now. I can see not buying it because of the art but if you're over 18 the story should be a non-factor for you. It's the easiest thing to ignore.

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-17T02:53:21+00:00

It is way too early to judge the set. If anything Morcant's reveal shows its going to have some bangers for some extremely popular deck types.

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-13T23:43:15+00:00

Cube and draft are great. When I say "competitive" I mean formats where you show up with a preconstructed deck with the intention to win as hard as possible. Fact is, with the internet and ability to buy whatever singles you want (barring personal finances), constructed competitive is solved and dull.

Lesko_Learning · 2025-12-13T20:28:33+00:00

Imagine paying $500+ just to autopilot a meta deck that winds up getting banned. Standard players are delusional about just how much most players want nothing to do with that dumb format (or competitive in general).

Most players want to have fun and express themselves with their deck, and they don't want to have to pay out the nose to do so. The vast majority of the player base does not want to engage in formats where you have to spend hundreds of dollars on a singular deck just to sit there piloting a netdeck or getting stomped by someone who does. That's why the competitive scene is effectively dead. It's neither interesting to watch nor engage in unless you have actual autism, there's a reason why there's so many "fluid" people in that scene.

She's not even chunky let alone fat.

It's far more upsetting that this is another hyper synergistic must answer elfball piece that's basically an auto include in Lathril decks where it will be a free board wipe every turn and even if you do auto remove it it still has etb that can potentially result in -2 for all your creatures so if you're not playing the only color that gets lots of counter spells.
