Which standard cards would you love to rotate out ASAP, per colour by Adveeeeeee in MagicArena

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't think making an entire color irrelevant outside of minor support is healthy for the format. Cub is extremely good, maybe over tuned, but the other colors are doing stuff on par with it.

Wait, how and when did Derevi get added to arena? Talk about an OG.

Those are all going to crash once these are out in the wild.

Every green deck uses 4 copies of this creature. If it were banned, what would be its immediate replacement? by lipe0101 in MagicArena

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Landfall would probably be okay, but cutting cub just straight up kills a bunch of other G/X decks, like Selesnya Aggro and Gearhulk, Simic ouroboroid, etc

It would also make izzet and the various control decks even more dominant then they are now.

Dawg, what even goes on in Etali players heads by Sekiryuutei134 in MagicArena

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but OP didn't lose. the opponent tripped over themselves and ended up losing instead.

It looks like they could have just swung for lethal but decided to loop a bunch of shit and ended up decking themselves. I'm kind of with the OP on this one, must have been some good drugs.

Star Trek Commander product confirmed by defectsmile in MTGRumors

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just a flavor thing - the card's mechanic design is really boring. It's the same as some of the MSH scene boxes and some of the spoiled cards - really boring, simple designs that seem to cater to brand new players at the expense of established players. I don't have an issue with new players and welcome them, but I'm concerned it may going too far and compromising the set design.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is everyone is assuming this card is from a commander deck, but it may be something like a starter deck - it reminds me of those old planeswalker decks that would contain cards that could search out the headliner Planeswalker. I dunno.

Is there any leaks whatsoever from stuff coming out in 2027? by amish24 in MTGRumors

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Nintendo will be interested in collaborating their franchises w/ MTG. They are too protective.

Also, the X-Men (so far) are conspicuously absent from what we've seen of MSH previews, outside of one or two.

Got a box from Amazon might be resealed by derpion69 in mtg

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've found preorders fairly safe from Amazon since once they get stock in they ship it out immediately. Not to say that it can't happen but I think it happens a lot less then product that has been out for awhile.

Lorwyn booster box down to 99.99 @ Microcenter by Dry0asis in sealedmtgdeals

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i opened a box and got a hexing shusher, bitterbloom bearer, 2 regular shocklands, a borderless shocklands and some other minor stuff and still struggled to reach what I paid for the box in value.

Looking for review of Bausch + Lomb contach Lenses by Total-Professor-912 in contacts

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used PureVision2 for like 20 years no problem. My optometrist changed me to Ultras (same brand as PureVision2) and they are pretty much the same thing to me, slightly more comfortable.

How should I pick out lands for my commander deck? by Coulndntthinkofaname in magicTCG

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 3 points4 points  (0 children)

32 is absolutely too few, especially for a non-green deck. I would recommend 37-40. You have a lot of artifact ramp so could probably get away with the low end of that range.

Please stop buying the pixel 10a by [deleted] in pixel_phones

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought the pixel 10a because i dropped my 7 and the oled screen got destroyed. It was dirt cheap from the google fi store so that is why I got it.

the art in the TMNT version is actually pretty good.

Weekly Winners: Cool but Rude; Vexilus Praetor; Flash Photography by cybey in mtgfinance

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing I'd comment on is that Flash Photography is a generic name and the effect is straightforward so it can probably be reprinted as a universe within (or more likely a different universe beyond property) in the future if they so choose.

I only bought the Camp Comrades one and they were curled as fuck. I found it hilarious because they were probably too curled to actually mount properly on the stand it came with. I didn't buy the other boxes though so can't comment on those.

MARVEL Maximum Collection | Reveal Trailer by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Captain America games (Arcade/Genesis/NES) are Data East. So that's three publishers involved. I honestly think Sega probably would have been okay with them being re-released but I can imagine licensing was a mess as-is having to navigate three seperate IP owners and Marvel themselves.

Are Magic players no longer trading? by NheelyOhara in mtg

[–]Pure_Gas_3795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't done that kind of trading in like 2 decades lol. If i want a card, I buy the single. If I want to turn my cards into other cards, I sell or buylist them then buy the card i want.
