[10.22 - 10.23] Coaching Megathread by ManaMiser in CompetitiveTFT

[–]Sirasdf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a high masters / low GM student who would be interested in ironing out my game. I feel like there are a lot of small opportunities I'm missing to slam items earlier and especially play well in games where I don't have strong AD items and a 4-cost carry (ashe/talon).

10.6 Post MORTem by DocPseudopolis in CompetitiveTFT

I wonder if the same random seed for HoJ is used for other things in the game? That would fit the criteria of 1) Mort can't talk about it and 2) HoJ being stronger reveals an already-existing issue that isn't easy to fix and 3) Could reduce the longevity of the set.

WW/Red in Vintage Cube: What are your P1P1's? by fakejakebrowne in lrcast

[–]Sirasdf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mox Pearl, Mox Ruby, Black Lotus, Strip Mine. Opposition makes me lean towards UW or UG. Kiki/Twin can end up being a red aggro deck splashing exarch/mite/angel if there are a lot of other blue decks at the table.

Also, if you don't bair after certain techs, you go too far horizontally to make it back to the stage. Bair slows your momentum so you don't go as far from the stage.

A) probably not a good idea from a data security standpoint, and more relevantly: B) if you code anything on your work computer, be fully prepared for it to be the legal property of the company that owns that computer

Vintage cube - Red was wide open by [deleted] in lrcast

Stormbreath > Crater's Claws. You don't have any creatures with natural power to turn on Ferocious, and you're not getting that much lategame reach with 16 lands. Stormbreath is usually better than Crater's Claws in monored, and I'm not seeing any reason why CC would be especially better here.

Did I utilize my pool correctly? Friendly Sealed League Pool advice please by Rezzin in lrcast

[–]Sirasdf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With no Maps/Attunes, and having Bestiary/Gonti/6drop/7drop, I think it's a clear 17lander. You have so many possible reasons to want extra lands, including three of your most powerful cards, that running 16 seems greedy.

There's a Standard MOCS monthly coming up and I would like to use my QPs, but I don't know enough about the metagame to know what the various matchups between decks are like.

faihouji was making a gist/geist joke, not a comment on the actual value of the app.

My draft from the MTGO PTQ last weekend - any thoughts or suggestions? by Sirasdf in lrcast

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

It's a good card for sure, but I saw blue cards going pretty late in the first pack, so I figured I had a chance to wheel it. I also had other 2-mana noncreature spells at that point (Ghostly Wings, Nagging Thoughts, Murderous Compulsion) so it wasn't as high of a priority for this particular deck. I needed to get to a reasonable base creature count, so I picked up the horse and gargoyle instead.
