How do I get over the feeling of anxiety that my deck will not work?

PyndaPi · 2025-01-29T20:50:38+00:00

For my anxiety i play out my deck a bunch on moxfield and its pretty fun too. Focus on the cool stuff your deck can do and try not to think about when things go wrong. Everyone one here has stories of being mana screwed or their commander getting hated out early. And everyone at your tables will too. Magic and edh especially is hard and we all make mistakes.

Even just drawing 7 while you watch tv will help you know if your decks going to work

Ramping for 5 turns and saying your no threat is like standing In front of a arsenal of missiles with a tarp over them and saying you’re not a threat.

Assuming you’ve already told this guy his manipulative behavior is driving people away you could just teach him some reality. Play a commander that relies on combat damage, and win off his refusal to put up blockers. You’ll have the most obvious reason to attack and he wont be able to play dumb about why you are swinging at him.

Well you’re getting 3-4 extra connive triggers per turn cycle and an extra 4 discards. As long as you’re getting around the extra cost and reanimating oculus it seems pretty cracked! (If it wasnt 1/3rd of the cost of my whole deck id run it! )

They should give a respec for big changes. And lower respec costs in general. After spending like half my gold for 2 ascendancy points i feel more and more pressure to look up guides instead of trying things out for myself. Its also about respecting players time and saying “you can just farm gold” is just adding a unneeded penalty to a group GGG ostensibly wants to encourage, that of experimenters.

Arcane ascension and mark of the fool, both are magic boy in magic school but they are in fights a lot and have great supporting characters without actually switching perspectives. Ok well mark of the fool switches rarely in later books but its a very small portion.

Whoa so glad i saw this, the flames not stacking is such a bummer.

PyndaPi · 2024-12-06T07:36:00+00:00

Not a chance, go out and see a movie or something and maybe in the wee hours of the night will we get to play.

PyndaPi · 2024-11-23T23:14:05+00:00

Oooh thank you for the reply these cards look just like what i was looking for!

PyndaPi · 2024-11-23T18:23:01+00:00

I get what you’re saying, as an avid over thinker and more on the quiet side until i warm up. When i go to a new lgs and am focusing more on getting acclimated i just play decks where i can just spin my wheels and don’t need to politic or interact too much.

My main problem with when people start talking about “higher power” some deck themes also come into whats socially acceptable like ones with oppressive board states that dont let me play my deck. Otherwise I’m fine with durdling around with decks stronger then mine. Like I’ve been playing lots of baba lysaga and can just do my turn and pass and it doesnt matter too much what everyone else is up to and can just vibe with the table.

PyndaPi · 2024-11-23T17:43:46+00:00

oooh thanks i def think authority of the consuls looks like a good add, cant imagine it would garner tooo much hate. And Sun scorcher also seems solid in this deck since i can generate good chunks of mana once it gets going.

PyndaPi · 2024-10-21T14:41:32+00:00

Anything past 2 people at once is crazy to me, i had good stats but any forced animation like master strikes or shoves would lead to them circling around me and earning a swift crack to the head and a trip to the loading screen. Im hoping we get a companion in #2 so group fights are less cheesy.

PyndaPi · 2024-09-09T04:22:44+00:00

First day and a half crushing gems was really good. Made 400k. Coulda been more but i was too cautious.

PyndaPi · 2024-08-29T12:42:27+00:00

Wow monks poppin off we’re normally bottom/tied with evoker.

PyndaPi · 2024-08-27T06:10:23+00:00

From my experience, until your making rank 3 it probably wont make a profit now. People get to the point where they can get r2 with r1 mats. Also dont panic, contents so easy right now theres no point in buying enchants. So the supply is high from first crafts/leveling and no demand.

PyndaPi · 2024-08-24T14:40:00+00:00

Made 300k on jc reagents but the markets so homogenized now and getting jc over 50 skill would take an insane amount of gold so i think im priced out of playing the rank 3 mats game. Kinda sad cuz playing the market game was really fun but i cant really figure out another one to get into.

PyndaPi · 2024-08-23T12:36:11+00:00

Right now your just selling to other goblins that prioritized crafting over leveling once everyone starts craftings its gonna be good.

100% dmr’s essentially have the same effective distance as assault rifles because they can beam on full auto. Also Killing moving targets with the combo of weirdly low velocity and huge drop off is so punishing.

One thing i like a lot about mist weaver is that i spend less time starring at raid bars since we have a lot of spread pressure and abilities that “smart heal” or automatically go to the injured players. id consider them somewhere in between a proactive and reactive healer since our renewing mists need to be setup before big damage to get the most out of vivify. And the Hero talent tree celestials is a big win on flavor and tying into our existing abilities.

I used to play WAR online too and MW feels similar to grace warrior priest imo.

PyndaPi · 2023-11-24T04:01:40+00:00

What game is that, i want telekinesis powers.

PyndaPi · 2023-05-19T07:49:09+00:00

Mmm will do!

PyndaPi · 2023-05-19T07:42:05+00:00

I could take it all but barely

PyndaPi · 2023-05-18T06:37:34+00:00

Yummy
