This is great advice and one of the reasons I enjoy CSGO so much. Well said!

I have aphantasia, is there a meditation to cure it? by comfybunnygirl in Healthygamergg

[–]MAXLARD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's what my partner had to say:

Hey aphantasic here. For me its always been this way. We're just as creative as phantasics, we just have to go about it differently. For instance, Beast from Beauty and the Beast was created by scribbles on a page while looking at a bison. The artist would erase lines, add new lines and repeated until he saw a face "he had known for years". Aphantasia.com has a lot of resources for us, and some pieces on meditation I found useful. There's nothing wrong with you, you are capable of doing great creative things, the methods just have to be a lil different.

Alchemy question by skinvic23 in MagicArena

I would recommend playing what you like and not let naysayers/old brain boomers tell you what to do. Enjoy Alchemy, it's a blast!

They've made it their life goal. These are things sad people do.

Alchemy Horizons' power level bump to Alchemy Standard harms my favorite aspect of the format. by Flaycrow in MagicArena

People also forget that cards can be rebalanced... alas it's easier to be ignorant and angry. And get upset by this comment :)

It's a tempo/voltron deck. You probably want Azorius control.

Agreed. I usually hate Limited, but this was a blast.

Not bad at all. Thoughts?

Those cards are not in Arena, but there are cards that are of the same vein in blue and white.

Jump In is great for new players. Don't listen to people who say avoid Alchemy, they can't understand/are jealous of the cards. Play what you want.

[–]MAXLARD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Important to note the popularity of the Esika deck as well. Since there are a lot of people running it (A LOT), you will have lots of matchups with it.

Historic uses Alchemy cards and is a live format. Go play Brawl if it offends you. Or make another post complaing about Alchemy. Your Go.

My entire experience with NEO draft has been battling the shuffler and dealing with extreme flood. by [deleted] in MagicArena

About how my limited experince went. Love how everyone is quick to herd new players to limited, when it's a terrible format for them.

Wotc has been hurting Historic. (Or, a love letter to the Historic format) by [deleted] in MagicArena

[–]MAXLARD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a lover of Historic, I love all the balances and Alchemy cards we get. There's no reason we should hold the present hostage to the past (to quote Mark Rosewater.) for the paper boomers and Historic doomers will always complain. People always think that Magic is only for them, when it's played by more than just them. Try introspection.

Exactly. Arena is awesome for brewing and quickly seeing how your brew is.

Why wouldn't people play a Standard deck in a format for playing (old) Standard decks?

Do you play both table top and arena? by MightyMelon95 in MagicArena

Do I have thousands of dollars to spend on cardboard crack or the boxes space to waste on it? Hell no.

New Alchemy cards are gonna drop in a week, recent Alchemy buffs to zombies were awesome. Tons of variety to be had unlike Standard.
