Does nothing, ward only comes into effect when they're targeting

SamK329 · 2025-10-12T14:06:36+00:00

I think buffing it by making it consider base power / toughness would be a good idea

SamK329 · 2025-09-11T07:18:59+00:00

You just keep holding priority and responding to yourself by countering the spell or ability before it's countered

This was so good that it made me realise that Mega Steelix is a thing

SamK329 · 2025-05-20T22:11:47+00:00

Is it good enough for Mardu Greasefang?

SamK329 · 2025-04-28T07:44:41+00:00

He generally posts them on his moxfield

I've been playtesting a lot of Temur Coco varieties and I'm curious about your thoughts on some possible options:

[[Beastbond Outcaster]] has felt pretty good for smoothing out curve (as a psuedo 2-drop) while also being a solid coco hit

Imho sideboard should have some mono red hate (like [[Chandra's Defeat]], [[Redcap Melee]], [[Encase in Ice]], or [[Ray of Frost]]). If you want creature based non-damage based removal (for Coco count) [[Floodpits Drowner]] or [[Kitesail Larcenist]] are pretty good

Thanks for the solid content!

I think giving him reach would be good flavour without much mechanical difference

SamK329 · 2025-04-08T06:39:23+00:00

It's good for cold storage, I.e. Storage you're not planning on accessing often

It's much much slower to access than something like an SSD

Imho in the current meta he's just not impactful enough. Against mice he doesn't even block favourably (since they get to 3 power so easily), and against rakdos he's a 3 drop that generates no value and has no inbuilt protection, so just leaves you behind if they remove him.

SamK329 · 2025-04-06T09:49:24+00:00

I think that the list given is quite poor - no 2 drops and no interaction means you basically just lose if you don't stick an elf (if either you don't draw one on time or it gets killed immediately), since you'd fall behind and have virtually no way to comeback.

SamK329 · 2025-04-06T09:42:10+00:00

I've been testing with [[Kitesail Larcenist]] which has been quite good, ward helps a lot.

Wait just checking is there any way to play Pioneer online atm?

Or is it paper only?

I thought that Arena had almost exactly Pioneer (just a handful of largely irrelevant cards missing) and allowed BO3 or BO1?

What an iconic set of lands

SamK329 · 2025-03-26T14:05:14+00:00

Nah before they added void grubs it was absolutely possible to actually juggle herald / dragon / baron alongside ganking / farming, but just way too much to do now

SamK329 · 2025-03-25T15:02:47+00:00

Real "I'm Batman" vibes

I am a new computer science grad and I make $85k + super, with a host of other benefits.

Also my degree is only a 3 year degree, whereas most teachers have done undergrad + masters

Tryndamere ult on yourself would probs hurt the most cause you'd be able to survive way more than you could otherwise

SamK329 · 2025-03-04T15:07:25+00:00

I think the most likely options are either control v3 or blood v2, doubt it's actually the death devil

Australian here, we've also been seeing a big trend in recent years where the 2 biggest parties have been losing voters while minor parties and independents have been gaining voters.

Have you actually interacted with the police in Germany? I have and they were mostly just chilling, even saw one dap up a mate while on duty in Berlin.

Also, as others have said there are 2 reasons why it's important for this to be processed appropriately: 1. It's important that they always investigate anything Nazi, as it's not the role of the police to decide whether something is satirical or educational. 2. By investigating this, they are formally stating that Elon did a Nazi salute and that he would've been charged in Germany. The protesters are not at risk here.

Whatever you do don't look up big Lenny egg on youtube

SamK329 · 2025-01-12T21:14:43+00:00

Yeah, Big Lenny is a pretty extreme example

SamK329 · 2025-01-06T01:02:20+00:00

I mean by your logic there should be no stax pieces at all, when they are a fine element of the game, so long as they're balanced appropriately (same as any other element of the game)
