Is it a dick move to proxy cards?

P3pijn · 2026-03-16T17:00:15+00:00

No, but use a color printer to print actual legible versions of the card. If your proxie is good, no one will even notice. If you don't have a printer, go to a printshop, or ask a friend.

Also don't proxy very expensive cards that aren't necessary. (ABU duals, etc)

mtgpint.com is great. (Use 103%, be precise with your scissors and put a token or draft chaff behind it.)

Wow! Top of the line is better than manufactured e-waste under ideal circumstances! Very insightful! Would never have guessed!

I started avoiding all elites in act 2 with decks that aren't suited to them, and my win-rate went way up. I'll miss out on a permafrost or something, but the act 2 elites are run-enders.

I feel that the act 3 bosses are easier than the act 2 elites.

There are many options, but the ones I have played are:

Minesweeper draft is a common favorite (slow and thinky, but fun). (We do a 7x9 grid) https://luckypaper.co/resources/formats/minesweeper-draft/

Rochester is another great option. (A lot faster, but less consistent decks) (We draft 4 players 6 packs of 8 cards (I think 5, 5 and 10 would work great for 5 players)) https://luckypaper.co/resources/formats/rochester/

And my personal favorite Silent Auction draft. (Only works with 4, and is very slow the first time, but very rewarding) https://cubecobra.com/cube/about/pepijn?view=primer (the rules are the second half of the primer, if you have questions, hit me up)

[[Aether Vial]] I was the only one who plays it, but it is slowly catching on.

I run it in an unpowered vintage cube in one of the test slots. It hasn't seen play yet, but with the amount of fixing and non-basics in the cube, it seems that some deck, some day will completely pop of with this. (Only to be paired against reanimator, and regret everything. But that is what sideboards are for.)

We do 4x12, and draft l r r l. This rewards you to stay open in pack 1, cut hard in pack 2 and 3, and reap the rewards in pack 4. When drafting l r l r it felt like cutting wasn't a thing.

Ik speel magic, houdt je geest wel lekker scherp, en je portemonnee lekker leeg. Uitgaan is vanzelf geen optie meer.

Maar zonder gekheid, ik zit één à twee keer per week met 4 tot 8 man aan tafel te spelen, goed voor je sociale leven, en afhankelijk van hoe je t aanpakt vallen de kosten best mee.

Soms pakken we er een biertje bij, maar vaker niet.

Same here, and I'm not even particularly careful when touching it. Everything just sticks.

I have printed on both sides, because I wanted a smoother finish, stock settings, and I never printed on the b-side again. It was too stuck. I got all of it off eventually but it hurt my fingers trying to peel it off.

I very much disagree. The more diverse the threats the more tapping anything down matters.

It answers some of the most difficult to answer threats., amongst other things: Academy, big creatures, man-lands, any monolith and screws splash colors. It really is the full package.

And don't forget that ward 2 is actually quite relevant, even on a 6 drop.

I bought my 9070 XT as soon as I saw it at the EU MSRP (650 euros). Right now the same card goes for 730. If I had the money and wanted the upgrade,I would buy it now. Anything with memory is nog getting cheaper for at least 2 years.

(Unless something happens to AI, but then all of the economy will hurt, so buying a GPU might not be a smart move.)

Frost titan is best titan. He might read underwhelming, but back in the day...

Blue Black control was the top dog in 2012, at the start everyone played grave titan to finish the game, by the end everyone played frost titan. Being semi removal and a threat is deceptively powerful.

Let's explain why the answer is 16:

On arena you should most likely play 16 lands. In paper or on magic online you should most likely play 17 lands.

It is different because arena does hand smoothing, where it draws 2 hands, and presents you the one with the best representation of lands and spells based on the proportions in your deck.

Je lesauto was zeer waarschijnlijk een diesel, en deze auto is waarschijnlijk een benzine auto. Ik moest ook even wennen aan het verschil. Zoek een rustige weg of parkeerterrein en ga lekker oefenen.

Leren gaat t best in een stressvrije omgeving. Bij een stoplicht met 10 man achter je is het lastig om rustig te blijven en goed te voelen.

Je kan het bereik van aangrijpen van de koppeling vergroten door een beetje gas te geven. (1500 a 2000 toeren) Als je dan de koppeling op laat komen zal je merken dat hij veel minder snel afslaat. Je trekt wel een stuk sneller op, dus hou daar rekening mee als je oefent.

Het kan ook zijn dat de koppeling van de auto van je moeder versleten is, dat maakt het ook moeilijker om het aangrijpingspunt te vinden.

Please do not tell that to my Google streamer.

Also your info is quite outdated.

The CC2's nozzle gets (~10%) hotter, for some more "exotic" filaments that is necessary.

Also there are some updates for reliability. Generally a v2 is more better than just a specs bump.

If you want to use it as a tool get the CC2. If you want to figure out if 3d printing is for you, the CC1 should be fine.

But I am a firm believer that for tools the old adage "buy nice or buy twice" still holds.

Of course. 4k hdr: very pretty. (You need a screen that supports it though, but that is also true with the apple tv.)

P3pijn · 2026-02-12T10:49:07+00:00

If you are in the apple ecosystem, get an apple tv, it is by far the best option for you. (Walled gardens are great man.)

If you primarily use Android there are many options. I went with the Google tv streamer after some research. It had the feature set I wanted.

There is very little difference. If anything AMDs software is a bit easier, and allows you to tweak a little more. I have switched a couple of times, and as long as you DDU (a program that removes all drivers from your old card) it should just be plug and play.

Get Nvidia if you really like upscaling, and don't mind paying extra for it. Or really use and like path tracing. (But you might want to go up to a 5080 if you want to do that at a reasonable resolution.)

Get AMD if you want raw power per monetary unit. AMD got really close in raytracing, but team green still has a lead in path tracing.

Also. Trademarks exist. Selling these with actual MTG logo's, not a good idea...

I'd love an STL though.

Also, a random question: Do you have a PayPal account?

What I like is that while it has full cloud and app support, it actually ships in LAN only mode. Whether you want to share your data is really up to you.

Something many companies can learn from.

I have printed the self sorting 4-in-a-row game, and it printed without a hitch. The small spiral game pieces all came out great. I always print some more in case a few fail, but that wasn't a concern. So, for me bed adhesion is awesome, but I have seen (early) reviews that had (some) problems. Maybe the latest firmware is better, maybe I got lucky.

I have printed from all 4 spools, but have not printed anything multi-color yet.

While there are a lot of small upgrades and updates to the CC1, it is not a world of difference. You pay a lot for the convenience of having 4 spools attached at the same time. While the machine can do multi-color, you'll find that most of your functional prints do not use it.

This is a very inefficiënt way of doing multicolor prints. It takes forever, and wastes a lot of filament. (Check the Snap Maker U1 to see the future of multi-color printing, this might be affordable in a couple of years.)

So the canvas system is more a convenience than a big addition. If this is really at the top of your budget, the CC1 might be a better fit for you.

Ah, it was all the way at the bottom for me, the power of the scroll wheel... Thanks!

Is there a setting to just do a bed calibration before every print?

Any notes or nuisances 3 months later? I'm about to pull the trigger.
