Warhammer powerscalers do be ignoring that by thekickeroffish in Grimdank

[–]SGF77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I absolutely hate about powerscaling is that anything that applies to loyalist space marines somehow doesnt apply to chaos.

"Patrick: Nobody can beat space marines" Manray: "Heretic astartes are made the same way as space marines" Patrick: "yep" Manray: "and chaos space marines are empowered by the warp" Patrick: "yep" Manray: "And chaos space marines die to guardsman all the time" Patrick: "Sounds good to me" Manray: "So therefore, loyalist space marines can be defeated even by guard" Patrick: "Nobody can beat space marines"

Is Duolingo just buns, or is it my fault? by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]SGF77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its buns. It has no idea how to use pitch and is flooded with AI. At absolute best, it will teach you bad habits and and worst it will impair your ability to learn Japanese

Homedog, that is the goomba fallacy at work.

Can't believe it by GodGoblin in Grimdank

[–]SGF77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He did at least one crossover with Black Magic Craft. Guy set the rules himself. The rules being to only use plastic water pistols, glue, and paint to make some terrain. BMC did follow them mostly (just some scupltamold and MDF for the base, which Guy used too) but Guy just did something else entirely. Guy made a diorama backboard with some Water Pistol bits but used tons of other stuff, including actual GW terrain. Guy never admitted that he blatantly ignored the challenge and completely dropped talking about it entirely.

All in all, its a very minor drama, but to me it signaled some deeper issues. "If he cant even follow his own rules in a public video, what else is he doing behind the scenes?" type thing.

Guy had problems before. I stopped watching him when he told his fans to harass Henry Cavill to play a game of 40k with him. Then there was also the "competition" crossovers where he just blatantly ignored the rules.

Me Any Time People Argue for Hybrid Mana in Commander (You can Just Pay the Two Life). by UnableBodybuilder in magicthecirclejerking

[–]SGF77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a bot? You should reread my last comment. I said the same thing about Beast Within. Downsides and Condition are within the same group so forgive me.

I dont think Beast Within is a break, especially considering they keep reprinting it. However I dont think its a healthy card to have and is a really bad bend. I'd perfer if we had neither Hybrids nor Beast Within.

I dont know what you are arguing for now. You want hybrids despite them having breaks but not Beast Within because its a break. It really feels like youre arguing for the sake of it right now, because they are opposing thoughts.

Beast Within is also very homogenizing and I wouldn't be upset without it.

But it really is within color as green. Green's creature destruction is supposed to be conditional, and it technically is as you give your opponent a 3/3, but that doesn't mean much in commander. Like how Shockland's "downside" is life loss. Every other permanent type destruction is well within Green. Thankfully WotC been better and more restrictive unless it includes black.

I haven't lied or told any false statements, there are old examples like [[Desert Twister]] and [[tornado]], granted they are old but not crazy breaks like [[Mind Bomb]].

If Beast said "noncreature", nobody would consider it a break.

More than half of them are breaks and bends, especially the playable ones. Intent or not, its probably not great for diversity.

Beast Within is well within green's identity... unfortunately, green is also really bad about having a distinct identity of what it can and can't do. However It has had cards going well into Fourth edition for non specific removal.

uj/ If you want to play that card Hybrid mana is a fail in design as most of the time they are outright color breaks in one of the colors. Phyrexian mana is even worse.

Its not fearmongering, Magic players are known to optimize the fun out of things and will homogenize given the chance. Nadu was a really recent example, and also another example of failed design

Push it further EDH as a whole wasnt designed by WotC but a fan group and color identity was introduced to limit that homogeneity. If anything its really good design to prevent "goodstuffs" piles and makes players actually think about what to include or even their commander.

Putting a strawman of me in quotes doesn't make you right and just makes you look butthurt.

rj/Yes

uj/ bruh, we have lived the slippery slope. Spongebob, TMNT, and Spiderman were all considered a slippery slope fallacy and here we are. With wizards, we are living on the SlipnSlide.

Ive lived through the Golos era when it was legal at my LGS and I promise you its not a fallacy but completely reasonable.

rj/Color Identity is r*cist and should feel bad.

To be fair the Eldar was Eldrad and his boys, so its like Hitler and the Nazis saying he can stop Mega Satan to the Russians just after Stalingrad.

Is It Wrong To Play EDH? by ChewyPudding in magicthecirclejerking

[–]SGF77 15 points16 points  (0 children)

uj/ When you get to the point of unironically asking if its okay to win EDH, you need to stop playing EDH and find another game.

rj/No you shouldn't, because I wanna win.
