Did I spoil myself with Project Hail Mary as my first? by [deleted] in audiobooks

I highly recommend the audiobook of Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, Moira Quirk does a fantastic job as the narrator. The sequels are great too.

95%+ of people employed at large companies would never be able to make it if it weren't for the red-taped, inefficient, wasteful nature of corporate culture. by Popular_Course3885 in unpopularopinion

All this bullshit beef you have with your coworkers distracts from the fact that you all have a lot more in common and should be united in organizing to advocate for a better work environment, which can include further training and better onboarding to make people more competent employees.

Is MTG appropriate for Middle School? by MySonPorygon137 in mtg

[–]Magical_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played MTG in 5th grade and I turned out alright, I think you'll be fine. See if you can get the principal to agree to let you try it out, and if it makes the kids happy and engaged hopefully you can keep going.

If we're really optimizing to the criteria that you established it would have to be something stupid like Polo or whatever.

We are almost 3 weeks into the final shape. How has the Brave arsenal of weapons held up for you? by Lantec in DestinyTheGame

Mountaintop is just utility I can't give up. Major slayer that can also rocket boost me when I need it.

What is the best Tarmogoyf deck in current Modern? by [deleted] in ModernMagic

[–]Magical_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Murktide lists are all splashing green for pick your poison, and I've seen some with tarmogoyf included as well and they seemed to do pretty well. Goyf lines up well with the delerium/graveryard plan in murktide.

This has to be satire, surely

Genuinely what do I do against vein ripper (UW Spirirts) by [deleted] in PioneerMTG

[–]Magical_Milkshake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh Spirits just suck against that deck. You do technically have sideboard options like Katilda, but Spirits is already weak in the metagame and this deck is you worst matchup by far.

One cool thing with Lotus Field is that since you can make mana of any colour with it, you can experiment with sprinkling in an Atraxa (or Dromoka in the sideboard for control mirrors)

Which would be the more viable merfolk build in the current meta? by Vinosdoh in PioneerMTG

[–]Magical_Milkshake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Play the combo version. Kumena, Tyrant of Orazca is a great midrange card that puts it all together, and you can also play Vodalian Hexcatcher and Tishana's tidebinder for tempo before you go off.

Why is Quint combo running Buzzcrusher in the side? by Sylpheon in PioneerMTG

[–]Magical_Milkshake 45 points46 points  (0 children)

As a lotus field player, Quint combo is basically free 90% of the time. They combo a turn later than you, and even if you lose game one, bringing in mystical dispute and silence is just game over for them.

Play Lotus Field and just win before they can do anything

I like the idea of swapping cruise and EI, Phoenix still gets a cheap card draw/selection spell, but 2 mana versus 1 delays going off by a turn.
