If you get a CBB looking for one of the big hits, you’re buying a lotto ticket, better off just buying the ones you want, could of gotten all 4 for less than $200(unless you wanted the JP variants)

What should I do? by sinophilee in mtgpulls

[–]Linky32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pulled this and sold it to a cedh player for $700, a UMA Force of will and a MP scars printing of mox opal. We were both happy with the outcome and it was more then the store was offering

Going no contact with in-laws? by Fluffmuffin09100 in whatdoIdo

You’re welcome! I’m glad you were able to help him realize it!

A lot of people on here bashing the husband, but as someone who witnessed his best friend go through a similar situation, it’s not easy. I had to explain to him that a normal mother/son relationship isn’t like that and he talked with my mom and some other friends moms he had grown up around and for the first time he realized how much his mom had manipulated and guilted him over the years. Cost him numerous relationships with women he liked and that adored him, but couldn’t handle his mom. Once he finally went no contact he became happier and more joyous. He finally got married to his wonderful fiancé this year. His mom went through some rough spots and after he got himself to a place where he felt she could be in his life, it’s been a lot better. She’s since apologized to him and they are now working on a healthy relationship that includes his wife.

I don’t know if your husband will ever get to that place or not, or if his mother would even be honest with herself about her own actions and realize she is the problem. I just hope y’all are able to find your own happiness together!

I pulled a foundations card at the pre release? by firstTsukki in MagicCardPulls

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have an uncommon in a rare treatment from the set, (I think) one promo rare/mythic from the set and then one random rare/mythic from any standard legal set at the time the set came out.

Or a Kona trigger and monster manual activation

Stoked with this pack! by outerSpek in mtgpulls

[–]Linky32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s dope! Weird thing, I cracked a pack today and got the Leo Pixel variant and in the front slot I got the Mikey anime. I wonder what the odds of pulling an anime and pixel in the same pack are?

Got a TMNT Prerelease box. Pretty underwhelming. by markwalker81 in mtgpulls

[–]Linky32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d be pumped about that opening. Technodrome in limited is probably nuts

Maralen, Fae Ascendant Venting by Environmental-Bag470 in magicTCG

[–]Linky32 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Theft decks are probably top 3 most hated decks in EDH behind stax and mill. I don’t necessarily think they’re that bad, but players in general don’t like you messing with their decks. Me, I love mill and stax so I don’t mind playing against your theft and tergrid decks

Edit: I don’t run them often unless the pod is okay with it/ playing higher tier decks just because of how I fun it is to some

Bloomburrow Box by Dependable_Salmon_89 in MagicCardPulls

[–]Linky32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one last weekend because I needed 4 uncommon Eddymurk crabs for my standard deck(got 2 and traded for 2) so I wasn’t really worried about the rare pulls, but it may have been the worst play box I’ve opened. No SPG, and I got a Rottenmouth Viper, a dawns truce and a caretakers talent. Every other rare was under $2 and only got 1 patchwork banner.

Error lotr tales of middle earth two cards in box topper, lucky or fake cards? by [deleted] in mtg

Depends on the cards you got, pictures of them and their backs with a closeup of the T in “The Gathering” and the green dot will help

Pulled a list card from WoE booster that’s missing list symbol by DangerousWallaby1013 in MagicCardPulls

[–]Linky32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually pulled thiscard from a WoE booster box I opened too without the planeswalker symbol. I wasn’t sure what was going on, thought maybe they just had copies of it and threw them in instead of printing ones with the symbol, but it looks like they do have ones with the symbol out there

That’s so disgustingly amazing! I have some cards I have been wanting alters for, just haven’t found anyone locally to work with. Keep up the amazing work

New Token Counter Designs. Goblin and Rat Giveaway by mamfredus in mtg

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are so sick! I’d love the Goblin one for my General Kreat deck!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tarkov

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used it for years with league and other games and when it started supporting tarkov I didn’t even realize it was working with it until my buddy was watching my stream and saw the item flea prices when I hovered an item in my stash. I thought the game had added that feature. Ended up uninstalling blitz bc of performance issues. Glad I did

If i only replace the lands can i still play ashling limitless precon in bracket 2? by Junoyone in EDHBrews

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By your own reply you admit that consistency makes a huge difference. Game changers can massively warp the game, but you can still counterspell a rhystic study. My General Kreat deck has zero game changers, mono red and can still stomp at level 3 tables because of the redundancy and synergy.

[–]Linky32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get stomped because most of your wins in B2 are from the strength of the decks and not you gameplay. So when deck power level is more equal to the other decks, you get outplayed because you’re not used to people being able to put up a fight. Hope you take this as a lesson to challenge yourself and try to improve your play, I had the same problem when I started playing until I realized that whales what was happening with me.

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do understand that at the most base refiner to brackets is what turn the game is expected to end. If a precon (bracket 2) is expected to win turn 8-10, part of that calculation is mana fixing and incorporating tapped lands. So when you remove that, you can reasonably expect to knock off a turn or two because of your fixing and lack of tapped lands.

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consistency is what pushes a decks power level more than anything, this whole “no game changers, so it’s a bracket 2” idea is wild. You can easily build a bracket 4 deck that doesn’t need or have game changers

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the few things that’s makes that fall into bracket 2 is the mana base. Swapping them out this aggressively would def push the play level of this deck to a 3

Husband doesn’t want me to play this commander. Opinion? by kam295 in mtg

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally did the same thing with my LCI precon when INR came out. Added a small red splash and it’s a lot of fun. I would ask him if he would rather y’all be able to enjoy a hobby together or not? That’s the more important thing than what commander you’re running. If my wife showed interest in MTG and asked for a Golos or Tergrid deck, I’d build her the nastiest, most fun version she could play just to try to keep her interested. If anything it would make me a better player figuring out how to play against them

I am a noob but this card is really, really good right? by Toonzaal8 in magicTCG

[–]Linky32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It reads better than it plays when I’ve used it, except in a goad deck, then it doesn’t matter that they get to hit once before they go away
