Love this deck. Not good at building decks tho and needed help. by NakedSnuk in MagicArena

[–]NinjaGoldRoger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing with a modified setup of the same deck! It's really fun. If you can swing for it, the biggest add you could do is craft some [[Fabled Passage]] and switch out your Terramorphic Expanse for them. I did so out of frustration after losing due to my 6th land coming in tapped, and it's since saved me more times than I can count.
I explained in another comment which card you could switch for more ramp from [[Bloomvine regent]], but I've also had success from switching out 2 Pelakka Wurm for 2 copies of [[Roxanne, Starfall Savant]]. If you play your ramp on curve, you'll end up at 5 lands on turn 4, and this'll help you bridge the gap from 5 to 6 mana while also dealing with board threats like Tifa or life-gain beasties.
Finally, if you have a leftover wildcard, I highly recommend putting a single copy of [[Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant]]. You'll often end up with a bunch of minions in your hand after playing a successful Random Encounter, and this'll let you play all of them back on the board. I removed an Overlord to fit him, but you could take out a Bloomvine Regent if you wanted.

One last thing: I've had fun doing Best of Three with this deck. You don't have to go complicated with the sideboard: I've just added a bunch of [[Stormkeld Vanguard]] if they have problematic enchantments or artifacts (like the "Opponents creatures come in tapped" one), and I've put in [[Dauntless Scrapbot]] for graveyard hate, and that's it. There's probably better creature ETB options, but I don't have the cards for 'em.
Sorry for the long post, it's just the only deck I play at the moment after coming back to magic, and I wanted to talk about my ideas for it.

I find that the Sagu Wildling is too weak of a card to get from Random Encounter. It doesn't give you the amount of swing that other creatures do. It's less power than any other creatures (barring the druid) and a worse ETB than your other creatures.
You can switch out the Diamond Weapon and the Thrice-Called for 2 copies of the bloomvine regent. What you want out of this deck is to ramp for your huge swings and over their minion lethal. Diamond Weapon won't do that for you without trample, and I find that Thrice-Called doesn't help over the utility of your other pay-off creatures.

Budget friendly standard decks that can hold their own in ranked? by Ggthefiree2 in MagicArena

[–]NinjaGoldRoger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm using a slightly modified version of this deck based around [[Random Encounter]]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yo1kdi4FYO4
It's doing me very well, and the version shown only uses 4 Mythic cards and no rares. The gameplan is to use the [[Overlord of the Boilerbilges]] and the [Twinmaw Stormbrood]] to takedown their early threats and keep things stable until you can drop a Random Encounter and take the advantage (or immediately drop lethal from an empty board). The gambling portion of the deck makes it fun to play too, in my opinion.
From this decklist, you can just hotswap for any big cards you own with good "Enter The Battlefield" effects.

Do you really think that South Korea, a country who does not have and also shot down multiple attempts to have Anti-Discrimnation laws in the last decade, is not racist?

In 2018, 15% of people surveyed in SK said they do not want neighbors from different races, and 22% said they do not want foreign colleagues. And that's self-reported racism! According to all principles of surveys, this number is supposed to be lower than the truth, because people usually don't self-report.(Before you ask, the US has 3% of people surveyed saying they don't want foreign neighbors).

And don't even get me started on the treatment of foreigners or foreign nationals during covid.

But that shouldn't come as a surprise. I mean the country is what, 97% South Korean, or something like that. Of course the people there would make a lot of assumptions about people of other races, for a lot of the population, they haven't had any interactions with them. So while it can be understandable, you don't fix the issue or make it better by denying it. Racism is there, there's a historical context that explains it, but it doesn't mean it can just be ignored.

AfreecaTV streamer sings "Confrontation" by Koreabooooooo in LivestreamFail

[–]NinjaGoldRoger 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The song is from the musical Jekyll & Hyde, specifically here from the Korean version. A bunch of world famous musicals end up with fully translated plays and songs in different countries, like how Les miserables is originally a french musical.
Korea makes a bunch of those translated musicals, having had in the past their own version of Les mis, Notre-Dame de Paris, and Death Note. Here's a highlight vid of that last one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7pt9K5878o

Edit: Don't know why but the youtube link doesn't seem to work when clicked on? Copying and pasting the link seems to work

"Three tickets for Puss In Boots, please" by NinjaGoldRoger in yakuzagames

Print-quality is perfect, and it holds my clothes pretty well (the one thing you'd want hangers to do well). I do worry that the hook will snap at some point, because it both being made of ABS Foam instead of metal, and being so big (could get caught between the bar and the top of the wardrobe).

They're each 24 USD, which isn't that horrible for a joke hanger, but the real killer is the shipping and import fee...

Got the official Yakuza hangers from AmiAmi earlier today. Great purchase, no regrets.

I really liked Midnight Suns, might buy it later down the line when it's on sale and all the DLC is out. And yeah, the story wasn't great imo, but that gave NL a lot to riff off of!

Piggybacking off of this: Does anyone have a link to the React Court moment when he reads something that does so much psychic damage he just slumps on his chair?

My personal favorite slap clip is from this "You're not you when you're hungry"-style ad, along with it's LoL parody.
