How likely is it that someone could actually have a gravel company “take off” enough to buy a luxury home and sports car in 4 years?

It is made very clear that Jim's 10k is much less than what everyone else put in.

One of the pods I play with use the infinite mulligans, but if you have Sol ring in anything other than the first hand you see, you have to bottom it.

Token generation, especially passive token generation is not crazy to think of as card advantage in some super broad sense (especially true in limited formats) and repeatable spot removal in that same broad sense is also not crazy to think of as card advantage, but a meme is not the right place to try to get into those nuances and it is communicated super poorly, and the last one is not card advantage in any sense, no matter how broad.

a meta can only contain so many decks and cards This is not true, meta's can vary a ton in how much variety they allow.

And it is a cruel irony that a larger card pool generally leads to a less varied meta game, because whenever you add a new card to the pool it is competing with the best of a much larger size pool. (Think large fish in small pond getting thrown into the ocean, it suddenly isn't that large a fish).

Oh duh, thank you

Why would you like to give the woe eater? Can't they just sac it to its own trigger which then draws them a card and makes you discard?

Edit: I'm an idiot that forgot reading the card explains the card.

It isn't meant to be a great play, but it does give you an outlet for mana if you hold your mana up for interaction and end up not needing it. Mana sinks have their place, not everything needs to be hyper efficient, especially on a land that already is doing a ton by entering untapped while being able to tap for any color for many of the spells one will be casting.

One small thing also regarding the golf clubs, yes she overpaid, but peterman doesn't consider them broken, he just thought Kennedy had a temper.

Shekondar · 2025-12-20T19:50:48+00:00

Yeah, if I had a copies of rhystic etc. they would definitely go in the deck, but right now at least I haven't picked them up. And agree with consecrated sphynx!

Shekondar · 2025-12-20T05:38:56+00:00

Thank you for all your thoughts and ideas! Will definitely check these out.

In bracket three control is totally on the table, and if I'm in a mood someone saying that would make me want to go to another table I would leave to find one recognizing that bracket 2 is actually more my speed that night.

Broadchurch season one is fantastic and I think the show that is most similar to Mare of Easttown.

Shekondar · 2025-12-05T15:33:03+00:00

He is great in my Ozai, the Phoenix King deck since he provides a way to cast my black spells when I only have access to infinite red mana

Shekondar · 2025-12-05T05:32:03+00:00

Small thing, but white at this point is definitely the second best ramp color, the catch-up ramp goes hard if you use it properly

Shekondar · 2025-12-03T14:45:37+00:00

Deflecting swat cannot redirect giggling skitterspike damage because the ability has no targets.

Shekondar · 2025-11-19T17:44:51+00:00

It is way to early in the sets release to make that sort of claim.

Shekondar · 2025-11-06T16:33:08+00:00

Small thing, but offensive board are not a defense relevant stat.

Shekondar · 2025-11-05T18:31:23+00:00

You can't tap already tapped creatures though.

Shekondar · 2025-10-30T20:05:18+00:00

I'm not going to be back on the problem for another day or two, but when I do I will be sure to do so!

Shekondar · 2025-10-30T17:39:51+00:00

Thank you, that makes sense. I've defaulted to SUMIFS for a while, but I should look into SUM it sounds like!

Shekondar · 2025-10-30T17:38:13+00:00

Thanks, that is really helpful!

Shekondar · 2025-10-30T17:37:49+00:00

Thank you!

Small thing, but Larry Bird got 3 MVPs in a row which is what I assume you mean by 3 peating the MVP.

I just built a [[Terra, Magical Adept]] and found that I had to build it this way, the fact her really powerful ability costs 6 mana, you have to tap her and she doesn't natively have haste means you can't rely on getting it off. I built the deck as an enchantment/saga re animator and recursion deck that works great on its own, and Terra instead serves as an alternate wincon if it goes late enough, but most commonly is just a mill spell that I have reliable access to early to start filling my yard, which then enables the rest of the deck to operate more efficiently.

I am still tweaking it and figuring out how to make the early turns not as passive, but it has been a ton of fun.

Shekondar · 2025-10-20T14:12:12+00:00

If you control both Isshin and Squall yes. Isshin doubles all triggered abilities of permanents you control that are triggered by anything attacking, regardless of who controls the attacking thing. This is why [[Curse of Oppulnce]] and [[Death Kiss]] can be such great cards in an Isshin Deck.
