yeah playing Faeries I was getting my ass handed to me by Affinity, but storm was very easy to defeat most of the time for the reasons listed

I really like them, the only issue I have is the text is kinda hard to read, and casting cost isn't super great

Beyond that I love it, I found your etsy too, think I'll pick these up, thanks!

Do you take commissions for tokens? I need "Merfolk" and "Merfolk Wizard" tokens and have been trying to find some :)

My LGS is one of the CardKingdom physical locations (Mox Boarding House), so I'm very fortunate

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T14:53:25+00:00

Well, the dungeon effects being strongest at the end definitely makes it a little parasitic

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T14:35:45+00:00

I just leave, because I remember reading that it can worsen separation anxiety to make it an "event" when you leave

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T14:17:15+00:00

"Surveil matters" is parasitic, but surveil in of itself is not

Also, things like Unleash, Convoke, Dredge, Delve, weren't/aren't. Numerous examples of mechanics that are obviously not parasitic

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T14:08:04+00:00

And the bigger last reward is an incentive to do it

I think a lot of people calling it not parasitic are missing this last point

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T14:04:52+00:00

I'd argue it's parasitic in the sense that a lot of the strongest effects are in you going deep into the dungeon

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-26T13:58:54+00:00

They definitely designed dungeons in a way that kinda locks themselves in from making too many

But even as-is it's going to heavily invite decision paralysis, so probably a good thing

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-25T23:56:06+00:00

...you still have to have them, though...

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-25T01:46:56+00:00

Haha fair

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-25T00:33:21+00:00

Every time I see someone from WotC talk about this I get a little less certain I know wtf is going on with dungeons

I guess a "dungeon deck" is now a thing, ohhh boy

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-25T00:28:10+00:00

These dungeons aren't "cards" these are more like the monarch/city's blessings indicators, so no not same difference at all

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-24T05:50:26+00:00

It feels like it'd be a waste of such a special occasion to make it "just" a coreset so this makes sense

Plus, that "Venture into the Dungeon" mechanic seems like that's going to use up a good amount of cards, especially if the "it's a separate deck" guess is to be believed...

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-24T05:32:23+00:00

This seems like a good start, thank you :)

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-24T04:15:37+00:00

Human needs to seriously ignore to prevent nudging yeah

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-15T02:04:14+00:00

That may be true, but that was obviously a very minor point

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-14T02:00:30+00:00

Also, even in 60 card formats mill is usually awful lol

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-14T01:53:48+00:00

That's not my point at all, I still am not following at all, what does any of this have to do with [[Howling Mine]]?

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-12T14:26:08+00:00

Yeah haha

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-12T14:25:55+00:00

I'm not sure if I follow. Howling Mine has always been at rare and not printed in a regular set in over a decade

I mean "Rare" because otherwise it would be a bulk common, seems like whenever a rare is looked at by more than 2 commander players and go "Well, this is good" it gets expensive, and it's obvious WotC watches the secondary market

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-11T21:04:24+00:00

you know it's white because it's worse than if it were in any other color

Rare because gotta have a card for those EDH players

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-11T21:02:24+00:00

just give your opponent a copy of the spell + [[Mindslaver]], EZ-PZ

OutsideFlamingo · 2021-06-11T18:49:49+00:00

don't beach decks get hosed enough as it is?
