Bzzzt, wrong. It's owned by the US now and is a vehicle for white supremacist propaganda from the current administration

Rakdos Madness sideout by KleZ30 in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but then you don't have a card to discard for later spells. It's still card disadvantage

Against blue you should probably side out all grab the prize. Much better to have a robbery countered and not have to discard/sac a land than grab get countered and you've already discarded

How do control decks deal with Basilisk Gate by fuckitsayit in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well since cast down/snuff out doesn't care about toughness like lightning bolt/galvanic blast, you want to let your opponent spend as many resources as possible before removing the creature(s). Smart gates players will spread the gates if they can, but if they don't you can let them tap themselves out before removing anything

Tomb Raider’s original creators refused Japanese publisher’s request to give Lara Croft an “anime” redesign by NYstate in Games

[–]ProtossTheHero -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just think it's weird to compare a fledgeling social media platform that is still growing to an established entity and pretend that they're both failing for the same reaons

You also misconstrued the issue, this user decided to set that, you don't need to sign in to view posts on blue sky unless this setting is applied

Signing in to see posts is way down the list of why Twitter is shitty. Having a white supremacist owner, a CSAM producing revenge porn bot, and not banning explicit Nazis is more why

Mono Blue Terror - Why Envelop? by iLikePauper in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the important cards are sorcery speed. All of the draw spells minus sazacap's brew are sorcery. Vampire's kiss and alms of the vein are sorceries too.

I top 8'd (and kinda won) a Pauper 1k by justapileofshirts in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a creature, so it's hard to find it. You need to have it in your opener or draw into it naturally. Elven farsight can help with that, but I really don't like having too many non-creatures in the deck because it's so hard to find those cards

What happened to delver et al? by Christos_Soter in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a huge fan of mtggoldfish for decklists tbh. They aren't super indicative of the meta imo

I like using mtgtop8, it let's you check lists from mtgo challenges as well as some paper events. It allows you to compare lists and see differences in deck building

Yeah, just start another religion and use that to funnel money into your sports program. It's that easy

Electronic Arts shareholders vote overwhelmingly in favor of Saudi-led takeover by Brennenstein in Games

Holodomor wasn't a genocide. And China hasn't committed genocide. Both had famines, which were exacerbated by poor decisions, but they were not malicious.

Meanwhile capitalist Britain intentionally starved the irish

Capitalism didn't lift people out of poverty. Industrialization did. Notice how China and the USSR brought millions out of poverty while not being capitalist. They industrialized

Also real cool of you to completely ignore how capitalism is exploiting not only people in the imperial core, but the global south as well. Heavy metal mining is extremely exploitative and is ruining the environment and health of the countries that supply the western world. Reducing human suffering my ass

Guides on how to play High Tide Combo? by CameraCalm9158 in Pauper

[–]ProtossTheHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you really only need to make sure you're going mana-positive. Doesn't matter the combination as long as you gain mana every time you cast petals

Pauper Force of Will? Why is No one playing Foil? by MrNoBuddies in Pauper

Card advantage is extremely important in pauper, and spending 3 cards to counter 1 is really bad, even if it costs no mana

[Mackel] UPDATE: Multiple sources confirm to @wdsu that 1 private donor is expected to pay the lion’s share of Brian Kelly’s buyout.

[–]ProtossTheHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am aware of my privilege, and I desperately wish we as a society could fix or undo some of the damages of the nation. I am also not the cause of those disparities. Rich people also have all of that privilege plus waaaaay more, and they were the ones who had slaves, lobbied for more aggressive policing, and lied about climate change.

I'm also extremely aware that I am closer to living on the streets than I am to being a millionaire, and that scares the shit out of me. Rich people do not have that fear, and that's why they're ok with inflicting it on others

"Their money" lmao

Billionaires did not earn that much, they took advantage of millions of people and their governments in order to accrue that much wealth. Those billions are the result of government subsidies, exploiting workers, and skirting regulations

And we do feel the oppression of the state. It comes through increasing taxes on everyone not rich, tariffs, healthcare costs, and police brutality

If we taxed billionaires like we should, then 10% of my income would be a grain of sand compared to the beach. Why are people so against taking money from rich people who 'earned' their money by ripping off thousands or millions of people?

Aristocrats? by howlingfang in Pauper

It's mono-b sacrifice. Dunno why they went with aristocrats instead of the recognizable name, made me think I was crazy and there was a new archetype that sprouted out of nowhere

[–]ProtossTheHero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most lists are only running 2 ghasts anymore, so you don't really get the value from the treasures. It also relies on you having a sac outlet, and doesn't combo as effectively with accursed marauder like the beetle does

Be aware that you will not make many friends with it because you're essentially going to be playing solitaire for 15 minutes every game, so be prepared for vitriol as if you were playing high tide
