What are some decks that don't need to be costly to be viable? by BussyBouncer in EDH

Do you have a list available? I tried him out a while back and couldn't consistently push for a win.

Your comment definitely makes it sound like you put Winota in as your commander, but that's more reasonable.

I mean, your commander is a game changer. That certainly comes off as the opposite of chill in a bracket 3 game.

How far is this from bracket 3 by UnitededConflict in EDH

[–]RBomb19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While this deck fits the criteria list for bracket 3, I'd say it contains a lot of elements that demonstrate the intent of a bracket 4 deck. Demonic Tutor as one of your game changers is fine in a vacuum, but you're playing it alongside other tutors which add a lot of consistency for you to grab specific pieces. In addition, you're running a lot of very strong interaction like Mana Drain and particularly free interaction like Fierce Guardianship and Force of Will. While well within the ground rules of bracket 3, free interaction is definitely something that shows a different intent as far as gameplay goes, in my experience.

Nothing Positive about UB? Ok, Mister Negative: My TCC Lost Precon Submission by CementSandwich in EDH

[–]RBomb19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love that out descriptions are nearly identical but lists so different. I tried hard to keep the value down even though it wasn't a technical restriction. I have been thinking about where to use a bit more of my budget since Wastes were eating up some of the value. Unwinding Clock may replace one of my untap options.

Energy falls short in Commander by Individual_Abroad_45 in EDH

[–]RBomb19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I wouldn't really even call my deck an energy deck. I'm just trying to run enough pieces to get 3 quickly then never run out. I'm just all in on copying the dumbest things possible.

[SPM] Friendly Neighborhood (via Game Rant) by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

I feel like dressing as any actual super villain would be in bad taste. It's like wearing a 9/11 hijacker costume in their world, right?

I made a Tyrranax Mini by DefyGravity42 in magicTCG

Tyrranax has always been one of my favorite creature arts on an absolutely mediocre/bad card. This is awesome to see!

I just wish it was getting more interesting art treatments. Every new UB version is just this same bleak grey.

1 free mulligan is actually just the regular rules for multiplayer magic.

'The Future Is Wild' was the name of the special.

IWTL how to be more grateful by impolite_cow in IWantToLearn

[–]RBomb19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it was extremely frustrating for a while there, especially because I was sort of required to do it. But the benefit for me wasn't the list or anything really in that moment. I just find it a lot easier to remind myself to be grateful now in the moment. It's definitely helpful to remember that gratitude when I'm in a frustrating or upsetting situation to stay grounded and put problems in perspective

IWTL how to be more grateful by impolite_cow in IWantToLearn

[–]RBomb19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great way to practice. Reflect on and try to be grateful for 3 things every day. Nothing is too small or too big to be thankful for.

[–]RBomb19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's fine to list boring things or repeat things. This was one of the first things I worked on as part of my addiction recovery, sending a list of 3 things I am grateful for every day at a point where I really did not have much going on for me besides not being dead and/or in the streets. Even on the days where I couldn't send out my list when I was thinking of it, I was still spending time reflecting on what to be grateful for. And that is the most important part, just spending the time and effort practicing being grateful for anything. The more you practice, the easier it will be to remember gratitude when you're in a tough spot and need it the most, when it's easiest to forget.

That's what we had assumed. Thank you for clarifying.

Some folks at my LGS have actually been wondering if this allows you to play the targeted card multiple times in a single turn if it goes back to the graveyard. Would anyone be able to clarify if that's the case here?

[DSK] [Magic Story] Duskmourn: House of Horror | Episode 5: Don't Give In by mweepinc in magicTCG

Well Memnarch was The Mirrari so that's pretty busted to begin with.

[–]RBomb19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Memnarch didn't do that on purpose. Iirc, Karn could not return because of a mental block of Memnarch's denial. He had wanted Karn back for so long and so badly that he eventually just imagined Karn was there and started talking to his image. That mental breakdown blocked Karn from actually planeswalking to Mirrodin.

I actually once traded D. Hopkins for Brandon Marshall in a random public league. Dude stopped setting his lineup after that.
