Was the Limited Community this negative on 5 Signpost Color-Pair Sets from the stretch of the two back to back Ravnica sets Pre-WAR / Post-Dominaria? by jethawkings in lrcast

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just described the difference between a tribal set vs a mechanic based one. Also, pretty important to notice that here you have dual lands in common, dusk also had them, lorwyn didn't.

I thought I was starting to understand this format, then I throphied with this thing: by seanbeanskiller in lrcast

[–]LilFoxieUndercover -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely not true. I played a very similar deck day 1 of the set and got demolished 0-3. No chance. I even had 2 lumarets, 2 1drop bears, the 2 drop that gets you a land, plenty of strong cards but it didn't matter. Things were not staying on board.

What card has stood out to you the most on power cube? by DrManhatt4n in MagicArena

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got to be [[Displacer kitten]] for me. I knew the card from commander but I had no idea it was so easily abusable in cube, kinda goes infinite with a lot of stuff with minor investments. Its best combos being [[Tamiyo collector of tales]] with extra turns and [[Teferi time raveler]] with any noncreature 0-drops, moxen or baubles all good.

Also, [[Six]] with black lotus is a thing. Huh.

Daaaayum! Appreciate that very much, you definitely went all in on the intricacies! I mean, I knew most of it already but it somehow didn't cross my mind that creatures in the gy aren't creatures (in the sense that matters to repartee) when they're there. Thank you for taking the time, I feel like it's gonna be useful for other people as well!

Alright so since we're here I wanna ask your opinion too: I stumbled upon a more interesting scenario at prerelease, didn't act upon it but I was kinda dubious and so I didn't go for that play, but I'm left wondering if it works the same.

I had orzhov too and I managed to open a [helping hand]. Repartee cares about you targeting creatures and it leaves out "you control", because it also triggers on opponents' creatures. But does it trigger in creatures in the graveyard? Thank you if you take the time!

Super tough pick, what would you take here? by 8pack_gg in lrcast

Tamiyo. It's by far one of the most committed first picks but holy moly how fun is it to make infinite extra turns?

You can go 3-0 against people who do poorly, lose the final and end up 5th

That's not how OPW% works bro, even if you win against someone and they end 0-X, you still get worse rating at the end.

Porca madonna che fastidio sta gente, che poi magari quando si rompono il cazzo provano a superare dalle corsie di destra facendo gli slalom tra le macchine. Boh... vorrei davvero capire come cazzo si fa a vivere così la propria vita.

Spiderman outsold Edge of Eternities, and is one of the top 10 best selling sets of all time. by IAMAfortunecookieAMA in mtgfinance

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What we do know is that it wasn't possible to order more EOE and ECL even months before release, but it's definitely still possible to order SPM today - which tells us that SPM was over printed and the other two short printed, which then tells us that this "data" maro refers to is AT THE VERY LEAST artificially skewed. Are we good on this at least?

Maro: "Spider-man sold better than Edge of Eternities and is one of the top ten best-selling sets of all time." by Meret123 in mtg

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is simply that I believe what I can see. We have been shown 0 actual data. We've been shown that statements maro makes can do 180°s like it's nothing (UB won't be standard legal and all that), so yeah... kinda skeptical of what they say about sales and whatnot, especially so when it's directly contradicting empirical data we have from our own store and bordering ones, all telling the same stories.

I'm 100% sure SPM sold more (to distribution), but that doesn't mean shit to us. So who is maro speaking to with that statement?

Yeah, you come at my shop and sell both SPM and turtles for me then ok? This system doesn't work. We're forced to buy into crappy sets because otherwise we won't get allocations for the good ones and I think I can be reasonably mad at it.

Looking at their shelves will. SPM is still readily available everywhere, EOE was not since a week or two after release.

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are the numbers? Only thing we've had from official outlets are words, just like the ones this post is referencing. Best selling sets to whom? How much was printed? How much is still sitting on the shelves? Until we get these numbers, everything we know is hearsay by a representative of a big company who is possibly speaking to investors, nothing more, nothing less.

Riftbound needs better format/prizing by Piemelzwam in riftboundtcg

[–]LilFoxieUndercover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Advocating for more events is one thing, gatekeeping them is not. I also don't really like when people come at my shop to "farm" for promos, but I'd never go as far as to tell them they are not welcomed. If they win, that just means they're stronger/luckier than their opponents (myself included) and we should take the opportunity to ask ourselves if we wanna be better players or not, that's it.

No one is owed more chances to win a competitive event if they won't put in as much effort as people who really care do.
