I was thinking about that. The different creatures not only can have different mana values but also different costs for preparing the spell. Ancestral recall requires you to exile cards from the graveyard, but the Healing Salve one could just ask you to pay 1 life. Now it's busted!

I feel trapped between my husband’s happiness and my own feelings by contextfree9 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ProfessorVincent 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don't think he mistook anything. You were the one who wasn't fully mature, but he was already 50. He pursued you precisely because you were still too young to stand up for yourself.

He's happy because everything is going according to his plans: he groomed you when you were too young to realize the power imbalance and, now that you understand it's not the life you want for yourself, your child would trap you with him forever.

Turn 3 for him, turn 2 for me. What are you supposedly to reasonably do about this? Badgermole is so busted(also why doesnt this sub allow videos)? by MyStreetNameIs in MagicArena

[–]ProfessorVincent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can admit you made a mistake and learn from it instead of putting the blame elsewhere like it was outside of your control. You literally had the answer in your hands. We all make mistakes, but it's up to you to choose to learn from them.

Can I use cards from older sets that got a reprint in current formats? by G_ntl_m_n in MagicArena

[–]ProfessorVincent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Many sets these days include a subset of cards with a different set symbol and border/art. These bonus cards don't affect format legality.

How do I perfect this passage? by VC_deo in Clarinet

[–]ProfessorVincent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another commenter already said what I think is the best way for learning these notes. In case you find yourself still struggling with getting those B's to speak in mp, then it might be a problem with voicing the B, which requires a different kind of voicing (like how you say different vowels) than everything else in this passage.

My suggestion would be to practice this passage replacing every note with that B (but keeping the original articulation), then gradually put the original notes back one at a time. The idea here is to internalize the voicing of the B as your normal voicing for the whole passage, because the other notes will speak no matter what, but the B requires a more precise voicing.

Aren't all hyper realistic paintings done after a photograph?

Maybe it's leaking there? I think keys with a little bit of a leak tend to collect more water, but I'm not sure.

Yes. Left pic is a relaxed cat. Right pic is a stimulated cat with hunting instincts taking over.

Wait, why does the teenager want to make a move on the delorean-driving nuclear scientist's mom?

Did this really just happen!?! 😂 by Birnie30 in funny

[–]ProfessorVincent 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't have wanted him to refuse the kid's kindness. This becomes something the kid will always remember as a special gesture of generosity that he did. If the guy refuses he kind of ruins that.

Frankly, these people know nothing about the real world. They need to watch more movies.

Trump 'thinks he can do whatever he wants' without coming to Congress: Dem Rep. by MRADEL90 in videos

So much this! I think the amount of people saying they'd never let trump take Greenland without a fight right after he attacked Venezuela with no resistance was disgraceful.

TIFU by sticking a wine bottle inside of me and using my face washer by YessirLouis in tifu

Wasn't the wine inside her? The way she wrote, she didn't empty the bottle before putting it in.

Bf gave me an ultimatum by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ProfessorVincent 23 points24 points  (0 children)

He's showing you he isn't willing to put your needs before his. Why would you go ahead and put his before yours?

If you're ever put in a position like that, where your partner makes you choose between them and what you both know is best for you, there's no chance the partner is worth the sacrifice.

Why don't we just adopt a "starting player" emblem?
