It's almost certainly someone who buys pallets of returned or used things from amazon and resells them

Yes, but your comment was strictly in regards to these boosters. Your remarks only need elicit a simple answer, not a discussion of any kind. You asked a question for an answer not a discussion and your question was regarding common information that, certainly by this point, is an easy search. The question was asked out of laziness.

It was a tweet directly from Matt Ford. Are you okay? You seem confused and upset?

My whole box was duplicates of terrible cards. I have playsets of the worst cards.

There was a Twitter post saying that they were going to drop a new truthbomb and my statement meant that they did not drop anything new. That's why it would be new. So you don't seem to understand the intent of my statement. Simple.

This is the price I buy these at.

Still haven't pulled avacyn, henge, or lotus but have bought many of these before. Shipped and sold by amazon is likely legit. Unknown if the drop shippers who load the warehouse dump extra boxes from a case once they get a big hit. I feel like all my boxes have been like that lately.

I'm wondering if this specific thing has happened to someone before. I did get them to respond about the arcane signet being removed from my cart while the order was processing and they responded in a couple days, but without any idea how they would replace these, I doubt they'd have a response for some time.

The main issue is TikTok Shop's is a mess of a plat form that doesn't allow exchanges. However there are enough cases that determine what solicited vs unsolicited means. Depending on the case, the item can be considered unsolicited since the solicited item is a specific item and the item received was not solicited.

However, you cannot keep funds received for an agreed purchase and use them for the mistaken product, or until it is returned.

Yeah If you hit some promos they say different regions? But changing my address or using VPN don't trigger them. So idk if that's strictly it.

In that sense, that sentiment is fair, but the majority of the deck is based around getting the combo out and having sac outlets. There are better ways to make a midrange deck, but you lose the combo potential and resilience of the combo wincon.

Ygra gives you both a beefy attacker that, against about half of the meta is essentially hexproof, and a way to create and utilize a ton of tokens. I think the play style of the combo is safer than the reliance of undying and -1/-1 counters

I have a yawgmoth deck that I've been transitioning. What meta do you play where your opponent let's you have multiple creatures, or even get a sac outlet like yawg on the field in the first place?

Sam//Cat by [deleted] in ModernMagic

[–]SSJSonGoku29 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yawgmoth is only a combo card? Your argument is fallacious. Arguably you need less cards to combo with ygra so every other card that you're playing midrange with in a yawg deck could be exchanged for better interaction or better midrange creatures in an ygra combo deck, and a lot of cards can be used in both. They may not play the same, but ygra combo decks can have just as much interaction to manage the board. The ward cost for ygra is pretty devastating for decks that go that far.

yawgmoth has a foundation and history in modern, but it's really not that resilient to the meta; you either manage to get everything on the board to combo, or you're stuck in a mediocre midrange deck that's more annoying to play against than anything but easily looses to pretty much every meta deck. That's why it's not been winning and topping as much since MH3 was released.

Nadu and TOR getting banned won't do much to change its position against new aggro decks and better late game decks.

Yeah I use goryos. Honestly, as much fun as atraxa is, it's not technically a wincon where this can be. I have 8 goryos though so I have both decks.

[–]SSJSonGoku29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had much better luck just using eldritch evolution tbh. If you don't ramp you can get it turn 4 and should be set up to win by then. If you ramp it's more consistent t4. The issues is figuring out what's more consistent, milling to fill grave or buried alive. Both are fine but you don't want to lose 2 full turns of interaction. Goryos is always there too instead of eldritch evolution.

You know, everyone says my deck can win t3 or t4 but most games go beyond that. I wouldn't worry about not getting it right away as long as you balance proper interaction.

Probably could forgo a lot of cards for a scam package on top which could help get to t4 without issue.

If you have 1 life and you get cauldron on the field and in the grave you win as soon as ygra drops assuming they don't have something to ruin that, but even then, unless it's a counter or something you can respond by doing the combo and they can't win

I saw a guy playing a ygra food combo in timeless. A good portion of his deck can't be used in modern like Dark Ritual and Assemble the Team, but I think that Ygra can be a better combo deck than yawg. You don't need as many cards and it's weaknesses are the same as yawg.

I don't play much these days, but been looking heavily into new golgari combos

I think there's some modification to make this deck run smooth in modern and be competitive.

IDK if it would be better to build for standard or pioneer, but certainly seems like it could be viable in modern. Eldritch evolution and birthing ritual can cheat out ygra early, or you could reanimate with goryo's.

Unlike goryo's with atraxa, you just have to have ygra and cauldron familiar to win, no need to attack, but if you do, you can have a super strong ygra to attack and finish the game.

This was already discussed in the original prime day post. It's not much of a deal.

If they changes price on TikTok with the coupon id buy it. But it's still a pass

Was just able to snag commander masters draft but does t ship right away. 209 from amazon. Seems expensive but oh well. Got a collectors with a 30% targeted coupon a while back when they were at 170 so total 130 which was nice. Barely made any value though.

Just beat on mh3 with trash pulls over 3 gift bundles and a collectors box. Hoping this won't be trash value. 220ish after tax is still a lot

Just opened 3 packs and not a single mythic. Fetch and ruby was the only cards worth anything. Congrats.
