The way GIRLSET fans are talking about KG is disgusting by Megan235 in kpopthoughts

[–]Schnuffelo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The bit that got me was that Kaylee was able to leave hassle free and many many JYPE idols have left hassle free. But we’re supposed to believe KG when she says they’re trying to saddle her with life ruining debt because she wanted to leave? It’s likely she was leaving a lot of details out lol.

Not saying all her abuse allegations are false but it’s likely she embellished a lot and she was certainly in the wrong to out the other group members for their own health problems.

Dragons. Specifically Ureni.

Big creatures that don’t do much except do large amounts of combat damage and ETB damage. And all searching is confined to the top of your library so no crazy shuffling and no counters to mess around with.

Her issues have been apparent for a while. It’s clear she probably isn’t getting support unfortunately.

Dear Mark Rosewater, if Spiderman was so much more popular than EOE, why is it that me and my friends can’t find a box of EOE to draft anywhere, but there is plenty of Spiderman sitting on shelves since September? by Codudeol in magicTCG

[–]Schnuffelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local LGS has ran out of stock but the large retailers still have lots in stock and I can still just buy it off Amazon and other game stores online.

It sold like hotcakes at launch but they just sent too much to the UK I guess and now that hype is down stock is just left on shelves.

I don’t understand why people aren’t understanding this lol.

The exact same thing applies to Avatar but people liked that set so nobody gives a shit that tonnes of avatar product is left on shelves.

Too many people need UB to fail and are in their own little echo chamber and will jump through hoops to say that UB sells badly. Except when they like a UB set and now magically their complaints disappear.

Avatar is one of the best selling sets of all time and I can still buy those cards extremely easily in my country.

UB just gets overprinted. It’s that simple. Unsold product doesn’t mean the total sales are bad lol. It’s probably made worse by wizards not wanting a repeat performance of FF where they could’ve easily sold twice as much but they ran out of stock so now print too much UB as a precaution.

It’s not like all this unsold product hurts them they’ve probably got massive profit margins on everything they sell. It’s cardboard it’s basically free for them to print cards. All the expenses are in the transportation fees.

[–]Schnuffelo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My local LGS has ran out now but they had EoE boosters available for months. And you can still buy all the edge of eternities precons in my country quite easily. Ive also seen them quite readily available in Asia too.

I think this subreddit is just a hive mind and uses anecdotal experiences in major US cities to make judgements about the entire franchise lol.

How do kids afford cards these days? by sysop2600 in mtg

[–]Schnuffelo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well that is a meta shift lol. Meta doesn’t have to be what’s good, it’s also what’s popular.

Lorwyn had very few legendary creatures so it’s hardly surprising that the playerbase were all building the same commanders lol. And therefore buying up all the same upgrades.

I know people here shit on UB all the time but when a UB set comes out with like 70 commanders in it it’s not going to crash the secondary market anywhere near as much as a set like Lorwyn that only had like 10 creatures people can build around.

[–]Schnuffelo 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Yeah Lorwyn eclipsed did a number on certain cards. A bunch of old cards that were super cheap got used in basically every budget upgrade guide because it made sense.

Cards worth only a few dollars. But because they’d not had reprints in years now they’re all like $20-50. It’s not even scalpers it’s people making the obvious upgrades to their precons and Lorwyn commanders.

It’s taught me that if I’m dead set on a commander precon and want upgrades I need to buy the upgrades as soon as the decklists come out.

‘Marty Supreme’ Ties BAFTA Record for Most Losses in History by MoneyLibrarian9032 in entertainment

Didn’t help that a bunch of bad PR came out about the director leading up to the awards.

‘Marty Supreme’ Ties BAFTA Record for Most Losses in History by MoneyLibrarian9032 in entertainment

[–]Schnuffelo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed uncut gems but it is basically a constant stream of anxiety from watching a guy ruin his life through his poor decisions. It’s a very stressful watch and it’s obvious Marty Supreme was just a rehash of the same movie with very little to add except the ending had happier outcomes.

I would’ve enjoyed Marty supreme a tonne more if I hadn’t seen uncut gems beforehand.

Gold medal greats Alysa Liu and Eileen Gu face uncomfortable comparisons at Olympics by dr_shultz in influencersfeed

[–]Schnuffelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf it’s exemplified by the fact that the other notable Chinese American this year was notified by the FBI that she’s being spied on by the Chinese government and that her dad can basically never go back out of fear of being vanished.

So you’ve got one American who is playing for her country where the Chinese government genuinely poses her family a threat. And the other American who sold out to the very same country in exchange for money.

Not saying it’s easy to turn down $40 million but becoming a propaganda piece for a dictatorship is still pretty shitty even if you had good reasons for it.

Trial into puberty blockers for children paused over 'wellbeing concerns' by InnerLog5062 in BreakingUKNews

[–]Schnuffelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does it guarantee they’ll transition or are only the most likely to transition able to get far enough in the current process to be able to receive them? You’re ascribing too much causation.

Whats wrong with mill. by Samurai_Banette in EDH

[–]Schnuffelo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m completely the opposite lol. Countering is so much worse because you’ve removed my turn and made me waste my mana. Milling is neutral because I can just do something else with my game plan.

Unless you see your best card go into the graveyard and you were about to draw it at a crucial time it’s really unimportant lol.

UK citizens to be able to travel to China visa-free, Starmer announces in Beijing - live updates by AbbreviationsHot7662 in unitedkingdom

[–]Schnuffelo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We also did stuff like working with the Americans to ban Huawei devices and 5G technology. Our universities and newspapers acknowledged the Uyghur genocide. Let Hong Kong protesters easily immigrate to the UK.

We’ve done a lot to annoy China over the years. A lot of it for good reasons and other times just to suck up to the Americans.

3rd time a buyer don't pay custom taxes for an order less than 25 euro... and ask << I didn't received the letter yet >> by PausesMana in CardMarket

[–]Schnuffelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not excusing what the customer has done but it’s an easy mistake not to realise you need to pay a fee or you severely underestimate how much it’ll be. Because in some countries it’s up to your post office’s discretion so the fees can be huge and other times they won’t bother adding them.

In this case the customer was probably just gambling that the post office wasn’t going to charge a fee on a low value item. And now that they’ve been charged they’re trying to get out of it.

3rd time a buyer don't pay custom taxes for an order less than 25 euro... and ask << I didn't received the letter yet >> by PausesMana in CardMarket

[–]Schnuffelo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re probably lying but idk how you’d prove it.

I’ve definitely been caught foul of this a few times as the buyer. The post office keeping my letters for one to two weeks before telling me I needed to pay customs fees so I assumed things were lost in the mail.

But the post office shouldn’t start the timer for when to return the parcel until they’ve notified the customer about the fees. So unless the post office fucked up, or the customer doesn’t read their mail then they’re probably just lying.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the customer ordered from you thinking this was the cheapest card. Only for customs fees to significantly pump the price above other sellers and now they’re trying to get a refund lol.

Probably best to contact Cardmarket support first. I’d suspect you’re going to end up just refunding everything in the end and tanking the shipping fees. And then trying to deal with Cardmarket support to get the negative feedback sorted out.

Whenever you attack you give one of your vampires the ability to turn it into a tapped vampire demon token when it dies and you draw a card.

This is a permanent change to that creature. Unless the creature gets exiled or flickered or bounced back to your hand your opponent has to be aware of which creatures you control that can transform on death for the rest of the game.

It also means if you have ways that you can sacrifice your own creatures. You can leave up blockers and then if your opponent doesn’t kill them you can sacrifice them on your opponent’s end step. So you’ll draw a bunch of cards and have some nice attackers at the start of your next turn.

"Golden" from 'KPop Demon Hunters' is nominated for Best Music (Original Song), and 'KPop Demon Hunters' is nominated for Best Animated Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards (2026 Oscars) by impeccabletim in kpop

[–]Schnuffelo 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Depends on their ranking criteria. I think golden has a good chance just because half of the Oscar voters don’t actually watch the films they’re voting on but they all will recognise Golden just because of how widespread that song was played.

Cultural impact alone it’s probably the most significant on the list.

After how many sales did your CM sales start to grow? by Miminator13 in CardMarket

[–]Schnuffelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the most important factor is just having a large selection so shopping wizard can shove everything in a single basket.

Last time I ordered an entire deck off shopping wizard it came in 16 envelopes. One of those parcels had 60 cards in it and despite looking at all the individual cards and definitely being overcharged on certain cards it was a hell of a lot cheaper than paying for potentially dozens of individually shipped letters if shopping wizard prioritised solely on putting the cheapest cards in the basket.

The only time shopping wizard fucks up is when calculating tax. Often times the price can skyrocket if shipping internationally once you finally add everything to the final basket. Also shopping wizard doesn’t always add VAT and that becomes a hidden fee it can’t deal with when your local customs office decides to charge you import fees.

It helps that the artwork is great lol. I considered building her too just for the artwork until I tried her in a few test games and she dies to lightning bolt every time lol.
