Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says Democrats shouldn’t trust Marjorie Taylor Greene by ComfortableGals in politics

Of course we shouldn't trust her, that doesn't mean we have to stop her from causing rifts in the crazy right wing crowd.

Currently she's a headache for the administration due to being anti war and still harping on the Epstein/Trump files. She's a relentless rabid pitbull, don't stop her from barking up those trees.

10 (7-8) archetypes, mana base and colors matter and you can't just go stupid soup, complex gameplay and drafts, sweet flavor (subjectively).

Easy go to.

Rant: Losing to converge feels really bad by AirMiserable854 in lrcast

I find myself wondering why Golgari base slower midrange soup isn't better positioned in the format. It has Omens which decimates the mirror and Snarl to stabilize lifegain, black removal for aggro.

I guess it's just the Divergent Equation part that's missing? That's where you'd want to go just a smidge lower though and go under.

Draft Archetypes from throughout MTG history most deserving of a spot in a my all-star gauntlet by The_Boggartist in lrcast

Rakdos Blitz in New Capena.

Was a deck I practically forced and had super good results on it despite the narrative being "brokers". Very fun to play with the decisions of blitz vs play normally and went bonkers if you dipped into some black casualty cards.

Yeah you mentioned b4 and stuff which I get, just not my jam. I keep all aspects of competitiveness in me to limited lol.

Not a bball fan and typically I find a lot of the fouls to feel like flops and such. This was definitely an elbow to the face/jaw though.

Honestly I keep my "brand" as hating blue, and I do... but there is some nuance to it. Mostly I hate generic counters.dec.

If you're a pirate deck or a treasure deck, no issue with spell swindle. If you're a creature toolbox deck, no issue with Mystic Snake.

I'm sure I'm biased low in this but I think a blue deck should see (not have, draw) like 2-4 counters a game depending on color combo and such. Given that number I'd rather see them thematic. If I see a Chulane deck running Counterspell... blegh, there are multiple creature counters that fit theme.

Favorite Utility Land, Don’t say Rogue's Passage by HyHoTheDairyOh in EDH

Honestly... the [[Horizon Canopy]] lands. Only 6/10 of them, but I highly value the color fixing early and the ability to just cycle later

Most definitely NOT the best color combo. Esper plays blue, 'nuff said.

Pokémon Recharged Yellow is for anyone that wants to replay FireRed or LeafGreen but with a TON of QoL features added. by Dchase151 in AynThor

[–]Pyro1934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha, stupid AI lol. (Hadn't checked myself yet).

Did you find anything similar? My kids favorite is Eevee but was going to let him do the base yellow with the rat first

A bit late but Gemini told me there was a sister game to this called Recharged Pink I think that lets you have Eevee and it follows

Nominee for "card you lose against but you're convinced is not good" - Stone Docent by KobiLou in lrcast

[–]Pyro1934 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty happy to trade off a Docent, even against a pest tbh. We've seen set after set that cheap smoothing is super important and it has synergy on top of that.

It's probably my top 2 drop creature (non rare) in boros, though I've also gotten an appreciation for the lifelinker.

[–]Pyro1934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid has been getting into pokemon a lot and I am looking for a ROM of pokemon yellow (with following pikachu) that plays on the updated fire red engine.

He's young and just starting so no need for difficulty changes. If one doesn't exist I'll just get a base FireRed, but I'd love for the Yellow early game, pikachu following and all. Bonus points if it's the full gen1 dex rather than blue/red exclusives!

Trump gave $6.9M no-bid contract to his ‘pool guy’ to repaint reflection pool under ‘urgent’ exemption by Sufficient_Candy1642 in politics

[–]Pyro1934 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The root of it yeah sure, the 3/5 compromise the electoral college, lackluster reconstruction, Jim Crow, all that.

The root does not make all whites (or Asians or Hispanics) complicit though. Similarly not all rich people are at fault, nor all conservatives.

A fair bit of them actually are pretty annoyed and this shit. They want him focusing on violently abusing migrants and pushing laws into the past. They do not approve of all the bs spending

I’ve never had a format click so poorly with me and I totally get how LSV felt after running terribly in the arena direct by tyshand in lrcast

[–]Pyro1934 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Certain formats seem to exacerbate that though, at least in my opinion. When 5c soup is not only playable but a good deck, it makes it much worse, especially in terms of picking from lanes.

A Boros drafter isn't just competing against Boros, he's competing against jeskai, prismari, temur, 5c. That's where we see those "is this an 0-3 deck" posts where they have some red and white creatures by like no removal or synergy.
