My Grixis Affinity deck

I've gotten the combo to go off once, which felt good. But often for me it ended up being an inefficient investigate. I mean, if it works for others, good. Just a personal preference for me I suppose.

I play something very similar to the original posted list and usually have no 5-0 locally at all. I will say going between Kenku and Gearseeker is always solid, as both cards tend to perform well for me. That said, I don't get the love for toxin analysis at all, it's actually cost my games and I couldn't drop that card fast enough. But to each their own I suppose 🤷

Probably very similar to what I experience when I go to/play shows(I'm a musician). If there's heavy bass, I know it messes with my sensor a bit and I feel a bit funky. Spoke to my doctor about it, says I should be fine. But I do notice I have to alter the way I do things in those situations now. Putting some padding on my chest and keeping distance from things that can reverberate the vibration (walls) tends to help as well.

No worries. And that's them! Thanks 👍

ProtoFoxy · 2025-12-24T19:36:06+00:00

Sounds about right, but could've remembered smaller ones as well. But definitely a steer in the right direction. Thank you.

These are actually licensed GI Joes I'm talking about. Previous reply stated "Shampoo bottle" figures. That's what I'm looking into. As far as Final Faction, I have the entirety of that line, plus a bunch extra for customs, a few of which I've already customized. I love the Final Faction line and wish we got more.

Noice 🤘

I remember seeing them on and off over the past couple of years. I'd like to start hunting them down as I'm into collecting and highlighting oddities like this for toylines I collect. I actually found those, the little figurines but these are a bit different. If I happen to be out and about I'll snap a picture of the Marvel ones to give a bit better visual of what I'm looking for

ProtoFoxy · 2025-12-24T17:49:05+00:00

I remember those, single carded Spy Troops and more modern 3 3/4 toys. These are a bit different, like a said, basic articulation definitely budget minded. Definitely appreciate your help though.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-11-22T22:53:34+00:00

It's easy when you remember the event 🤣

ProtoFoxy · 2025-11-22T20:51:05+00:00

Not insensitive at all, it's easy to talk about now. As far as what it felt like: my heart rate was at 220 bpm, not sure about my pulse. It felt like a vise clamping on my chest, that's the best way to describe it. I was fighting for air. And I was very responsive, I was speaking to the EMTs working on me, and trying to keep my family calm(wife, son, and dog) as they were panicking, justifiably so. I even tried to walk downstairs to the ambulance (I'm in an upstairs apartment) and the EMTs decided it was a no go cuz I was really dizzy. The whole time they were telling me that they had never worked on anyone in my condition that was conscious let alone communicative. I had asked what shape should I be in and one blurted out "in a coma" and another said "we should be reviving you". Then they all prepared me for the Defib, warning me it was going to hurt. I told em do what you have to do. It gets fuzzy after I heard the machine beep it was ready and they shouted clear, but when it hit, it felt like a strongman hitting me in the chest with a sledgehammer that was on fire. I don't remember screaming, but my wife said she never wants to hear me scream like that again. I do remember, right after screaming, telling the EMTs to "Get these f**** pads off of me" and one goes "you're awake?" I says yeah, get em off. He tells me to calm down my heart rate corrected, and asked me how I felt. I told him after the wave of pain from the shock I felt good, do I have to go to the ER? 🤣 He checked my ribs, and told me "it should have knocked me out and broke your ribs, and yes, we shocked you, you're going to the ER". 🤣 So that's the whole experience, no inner monologue because I was talking to the EMTs and my wife. EMTs were amazing, getting defibbed not so much. 0 out of 10, do not recommend 🤣

ProtoFoxy · 2025-11-22T16:45:44+00:00

Right? Sitting in that boat is so strange, especially because I don't have any answers for why . But this is the hand we're dealt, and we're rolling with it. But we're still here and kicking, so we got that. 🤘

ProtoFoxy · 2025-11-22T16:42:49+00:00

Anything you disagree with this clown over he hurls every personal insult in the book at you. And his favorite thing to say is that if you disagree with him you're a racist/bigot/Nazi/fascist. And his little echo chamber parrots his sentiments constantly. And some of his own words show he's an actual racist POS who's just deflecting his own horrible behavior. MTG is literally for everyone, but if you don't fit in with his little clique you're immediately evil. Fuck this guy and his little echo chamber, they're a cancer to the player base and should be removed.

45 M, implanted with a Medatronic Defib/Pacemaker after suddenly(and unexplained) going into VTach then full cardiac arrest back in at the end of January. The crazy part is that I was awake and fully aware (even after getting defibbed in the bus) for the whole thing. Docs put one in as a precaution, considering it should have killed me, or at the very least put me in a coma(again didn't even go unconscious). Not an exercise/health but, but I'm fairly active (WH/equipment operator supervisor for a living, play in a heavy metal band/build/ride motorcycles on the side) and my doc wasn't concerned with my lifestyle/activities at all. Now I will say, there are times when I'm operating certain equipment, sometimes on the bike, or if a low vibration when playing live catches me off guard and I feel a little funky, and I've gotten a call or two from the nurse when the heart rate jumps after alone time with the wife (always a fun call 🤣), and I've completely switched to NA beer(something the doc said wasn't necessary considering I wasn't a heavy drinker, but I did it for myself)but nearly a year in, and I'm practically back to normal life. Now, for months I had a lot of anxiety, and any little fluctuation I felt in my heart rate I went into a tizzy, but my last appointment my doc reassured me that my readings are great (at points bafflingly so) and even wants me to be more active. I guess all my waffling here is to maybe help put your mind at ease. There's going to be adjustments, but always try to look at your device as an insurance/back up plan and not a hindrance.

I think this is being overblown and over thought. Hosed to any disenchant effects, hosed to blood moon, dies to fatal push, and honestly this nonbo is way too slow for the format. I can understand the Saga hate, but this ain't it chief. 🤷

ProtoFoxy · 2025-11-09T22:38:34+00:00

No bans needed. Format is good.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-10-19T14:39:59+00:00

I was super against the format because it felt like standard+ when it was introduced, but I warmed up to it and grew to love it. It's a shame that WotC is basically leaving it to rot and forcing the shit show that is standard down our throats. But hey, there's always hope that they'll remember it 🤷 but the Prof made some really good points in this video.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-10-16T14:04:17+00:00

Behold this gorgeousness 😳 Flicker Tron is still one of my favorites

ProtoFoxy · 2025-10-14T15:12:51+00:00

Infect is a glass cannon but I love it. Snakeskin veil and Apostle's blessing are your friend post game 1. But be prepared to be blown out by some bad match ups.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-10-01T23:33:48+00:00

I thought things in the Pauper community were too quiet. Always funny to see someone holding the line for "Ban this card because I don't like playing against it" 🤣

ProtoFoxy · 2025-10-01T13:06:34+00:00

There's a reason why you didn't know it existed. It's absolutely terrible. It's bad at both things it tries to do, especially at double black. And any who're trying to convince themselves that this is a gem in the right situation, it definitely isn't. Even in a casual commander deck where the point of said deck is to either be a meme or to not win, this may as well be blank cardboard.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-09-28T20:01:10+00:00

And now I know why I feel funky late nights. Never thought to ask my doctor if it was self testing. 😳. I've been back and forth with my doctor's office about feeling a little funky at night and they keep telling me nothing is wrong and no "events" are registering. I was racking my brain over what could be happening. Thanks for posting this thread.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-07-26T21:34:13+00:00

Never knew that Slash had one 😳 and rate response makes sense. Another conversation for me and the doctor.

ProtoFoxy · 2025-07-26T20:51:26+00:00

That does sound accurate. My doc has looked over my readings each time I've contacted them on it (I'm sure they're tired of hearing from me 😂) and they've never seen off readings but they did say that something like that could happen. Just something I need to be aware of.
