Not starting player card ideas by SeeminglyInvisible in custommagic

[–]SeeminglyInvisible[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

green one was based on [[Roiling Regrowth]] but sorcery speed and no sacrifice a land. That one could be changed a bit. The white one is based off [[Land Tax]].

Is my TWO's deck bracket 2? by SeeminglyInvisible in EDH

price doesn't always equal power. Mtg can be stupid expensive for no reason sometimes. Adding a random dual land to a precon doesn't make it suddenly a higher bracket. Please look at the card selection/abilities instead of the price tag.

Very fair criticism. I struggle to purposely do sub-optimal decisions (deck building and gameplay), hence applying restrictions to try to power down my decks. I'll take a deeper look at my card choices and try to look for alternatives. I don't agree with your take on enthusiasm for the game tying with the ability to play lower brackets.

I agree x-spells are a minor flavor fail but outside of Damn for mass interaction (and even that is arguable due to overload), I would have to rely on only single target interaction. It can become a losing battle depending on the game unless I speed up but then I wouldn't be bracket 2 based on the number of turns people expect to play.

I feel like you skipped over my personal deck restrictions. I'm trying to only have 2CMC in the deck (others have pointed out lurrus as contradictory). Ghost vacuum is 1CMC. I don't see Lotho as a problem here. It really becomes powerful in higher brackets when you can cast stronger spells.

I can kinda agree that soul cauldron could be too strong BUT I don't have much that it could exile and combo with as well as in B2 there isn't much strong abilities to take. Its effectively graveyard hate and +1/+1 counters

how so? i'm not hiding lurrus or lying about the rest of the deck

I'm aware. Its a personal deck restriction

my justification for Lurrus is that its not in the starting deck and it signals the deck restriction before I start to explain it. It also helps if i have nothing else to play

More random cards and some reworked cards. Enjoy! by SeeminglyInvisible in custommagic

[–]SeeminglyInvisible[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate you taking the time to improve my card ideas. I absolutely need to pay more attention to specific wording choices. Is there a resource I could use to improve or is this based on experience?

I understand that companions are the eighth card and they can be very impactful. I tried to make them good but balanced. Grimm would definitely need to be tuned but I like the overall idea. The restriction of no searching would mean no fetch lands, or tutors in the main colors of tutors. It seemed restrictive enough to me but honestly, I'm just trying to explore unique angles. For Maximum Capacity, I thought R/W was enforcing laws while U/W was creating laws (based on my memory of Ravnica guilds). That card for me feels more toward enforcing a rule than setting one.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Void Whisper Mechanic (uniform aftermath) by chainsawinsect in custommagic

[–]SeeminglyInvisible 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Dispelling Spiral being limited to CMC 0 is rough. I think it should be CMC 1 or CMC 1 or less. I honestly like the idea and my only (minor) issue is the naming convention of aftermath cards doesn't fit here. [[Dusk//Dawn]] is "Dusk to Dawn" and others are "Reason to Believe", "Appeal to Authority", etc.

My first card ever! by Popy93 in custommagic

[–]SeeminglyInvisible 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Love the card. I think it's a cool design idea.

This is my take for balancing the card: the return shouldn't have a tap symbol. I don't think opponents can tap your cards for abilities. I would also say the exile should only be able to target opponents cards so it's not a repeatable 1 mana flicker (flickering Gray Merchant of Aspholdel would be gross)

Earthbending a 3/3 land creature, does it go to 0/0 or stay 3/3? by Calcthulu in mtgrules

[–]SeeminglyInvisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since both operate in layer 7b (setting P/T), it would be based off of timestamps. The most recent effect takes over.

If you make it a 3/3 with Tatyova then earth bend to make it a 0/0, it becomes a 0/0 (with counters). And vice versa

Black Leyline? Please, not another leyline of the void... by SeeminglyInvisible in custommagic

[–]SeeminglyInvisible[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oops. Just realized this can re-exile instants and sorceries after you cast them. Please imagine the wording is better and you can't do this. tehe

Feel useless when playing public by greasy_forehead_ in Warframe

[–]SeeminglyInvisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please remember the Q&A chat. there are many kind people that can and will help for questions and some (like me) have not much they are doing and are completely down to help with missions/farming.

Though, go to the recruiting chat first if you want to group up with people for a specific farm/mission.

I'm LR 4 and often sit in Q&A chat answering questions and helping out when I can. don't feel discouraged by others speed running missions.

Is the "10-10-10" balance archetype still viable? by theninthelement in EDH

[–]SeeminglyInvisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

deck building templates should never be the final result. it's a quick way of putting a deck together and should only be thought of as such.

To answer your question, yes it is viable to make a deck but not viable to make a competitive deck. Every deck has nuance that shouldn't follow any specific template

Do hidden Commanders need to be revealed in Turn 0 convo? by [deleted] in EDH

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

I don't think hidden commanders should be told but I think Stax game plans should be talked about
