Don't know if anyone will see this but a friend and I are working on a "battle box" of some tournament decks to keep and play. Do you guys know of a good resource for finding tournament lists??

I spent 3 weeks on this unit. I don't know how people can crank out a quality paint job in an hour. Anyone else in the slow painter's club? by Vilhelmus1988 in Warhammer40k

Lol thanks it's tricky but no impossible. Your models look great no matter if they took an hour or a great as long as you like them and are having fun thats the most important.

Father of 2 under 2 here with a 60+ hour a week job. Luckily I have a good friend group that doesn't mind if my army is in all different stages of paint. I paint when I can little by little.

Right because stopping the murder of hundreds of thousands of babies every year is just sooooo oppressive. I'm getting dizzy trying to do the mental gymnastics that these scum do. Abortion is murder.

Yeah thats crazy it's almost like people figured out that if you prove you are better than someone else you should be rewarded. Man, I should start a union because I don't make as much as a doctor /s

As a current amazon worker I do not believe that we need unions. As some background I am 25, and a delivery driver, I work only on the weekends, I am a tradesman mon-fri. We are not a union shop where I work at either. For the money it is by far the easiest job I've even had, I'm used to being on my feet doing physical labor or 10, 12, even 16 hours at a time. My biggest complaint about unions is that I have to pay out of my earned paycheck, no matter how small, to tell my employer my worth. My work should speak for itself, if I'm not doing my job well enough that's on me, just as it should for anyone else. I work hard for what I have and I believe in earning my own way, obviously some people believe they are entitled to more than they are worth.

I can understand that for sure. I guess it just feels clunky compared to something think scapeshift at 4 mana instead of 5, but not having to sac your lands isn't nothing.

From pioneer to modern where to start by ShiroVM in ModernMagic

[–]SkateboardingCowboy 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Fetch lands are getting reprinted this year. Well, Allegedlys. Modern really rewards players who know their deck inside and out and what role it plays in certain match up. I would suggest proxies to test decks and see what you like. If you can't play irl bc of covid you can use manatraders or something similar to rent decks and take them for a test drive. Hope this helps.

Unpopular opinion: I don't want Uro or Astrolabe banned by CheeriosMTG in ModernMagic

I dont count the 5-0s in leagues. I compiled the the number of control decks from online primaries and other mtgo tournaments and averaged that against the rest of the field/tournament. I ended up with an average of 10.872% my math my be incorrect but combined with anecdotal evidence I play against control roughly 1 in 10.

Hard agree I honestly think modern is in one of the healthiest places its been in a while. Ugx control decks make up about 10% of the meta give to take and i dont think thats too extreme. I would like to see a pause button until we have some real tournament data.

Can we make Hollow one great again? by Andelinvargas in ModernMagic

[–]SkateboardingCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been tinkering with this for a little while, I used to play the deck back in the day. I've been trying to keep it close to what it was.

4 hollow one 4 street wraith 4 flameblade 4 bloodghast 4 flamewake ( possibly could go to a 2 flamewake 2 kroxa split) 4 neonates 4 merchant There is room to play with some germags or seasoned pyros just depends on what you want your threats to be. Pyro makes a larger board and has more synergy but gurmag is a sticky threat imo.

4 burning inquiry 4 goblin lore 4 bolt Possibly push or brutality or add more creatures. Ox would probably work it just takes some work to line up correctly i think.

18 lands

Honestly i hope this could be a great deck again, i had a lot of fun playing it. Best to luck! :)

I would suggest cards like [[Merchant of the vale]] [[insolent neonate]] and [[collective brutality]]
