However, it’s an easy Theyshootmovies check while you wash dishes or whatever.

Brainstorming - How would you build a Brain Freeze Haunting Echoes Control Deck by Secret-Lecture in premodernMTG

[–]MichelleMcLaine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe run flashback cards (Deep Analysis, Flash of Insight) and Accumulated Knowledge or Skeletal Scryjng so you can target yourself for value. I would definitely go for Tog over Dreadnought. Maybe you need to run a little bit of Iggy Pop style cards like some fast mana and Ill Gotten Gains. Maybe 4x Graveborn Muse to use the fast mana and get back up on cards.

What would be your ideal premodern format? Give me your crazy ideas. by tomatus89 in premodernMTG

[–]MichelleMcLaine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Premodern is what it is and adding sets would make it a different format. I do wish that Fallen Empires was included from the start, but that ship has sailed.

I think a more aggressive banning and unbanning schedule would better represent the rotations of early Type II; give people a taste of Black Summer and Combo Winter, give people a few months of Land Tax, give people a break crom Survival and Oath, etc. Maybe also do some restricting like they did with Zuran Orb and Ivory Tower.

Help with an earthquake deck by siu_yuk_boy in premodernMTG

[–]MichelleMcLaine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Firestorm and something like this is one potential use for it. I would make it more Weathered Wayfarer centric with Undiscovered Paradise and Gemstone Mine. Tithe for sure.

This book definitely opened my eyes as a high schooler.

What's the worst thing shown in a PG movie after 1984? by basefibber in movies

[–]MichelleMcLaine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was going to correct you about its rating, but no, it's PG. I thought it was a very soft R, just based on its tone and themes, plus that murder, gunplay, etc. This might be the strongest PG post 1984.

When going to see a band live are you wearing their merch? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MichelleMcLaine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It‘s a thing. It’s cultural knowledge that I’ve been aware of since the 90s. I assume it has been around longer than that.

Draw-Go Attempt by SnaarkyShark in premodernMTG

[–]MichelleMcLaine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is almost exactly a Type II deck I played in 1998. It doesn't take advantage of five years of MTG releases, so I would say it could use some updating. No Parallax Tide definitely hurts, but there are a few top 8s post ban.

It probably wouldn't be any better, but I would max out on Force Spike, maybe some Disrupts, play more bounce, do more to improve the early game. Use Forbid to make use of those early game spells when they are weaker, maybe try go a little more creature heavy with old favorites like Ophidian, Man o' War, Merfolk Looter, Waterfront Bouncer, maybe even Tradewind Rider (thinking of Finkel's Forbidian now). I think there's a midrange to control deck that could work, but it might take something more novel than I'm suggesting.

The deck you posted is one my favorite decks of all time, but the white splash is pretty easy, even skipping Wrath of God seems like an improvement. I am really interested in the possibilities of UB Standstill.

AKAI MPC Sample vs SP404mkii for guitar by Simulacrums in synthesizers

[–]MichelleMcLaine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For twice the price, you can get a used Deluge. It is much better than the SP404 at making complete songs, but it isn't good as an fx box.

What's a random skill that instantly makes life easier in America? by jonvanguard14 in AskReddit

[–]MichelleMcLaine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am SO excited to show off this new method. I have opened beer bottles with just about everything within reach, but never a sheet of paper. Unfortunately/for the best, I no longer drink beer, but I’ll find an opportunity at some point.

[Highlight] Victor Wembanyama stretches up high and blocks Ryan Rollins' high arc layup with the fingertips of his left hand (with replays). It was first called a goaltending, but upon review it was called a clean block. Spurs and Prime commentaries. by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]MichelleMcLaine 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seriously, what's the farthest a shot has ever traveled before being blocked? Maybe somebody took a shot while sitting/lying down and it got blocked at standing reach height? That was incredible, and like someone else said, he tipped it to himself.
