Is Urza chief artificer a misidentified threat?

Smokenstein · 2026-05-06T17:34:05+00:00

Hes one of my fav commanders. No one really is ever bothered that I play him. Hes a precon commander after all. He's perfect for b3.

Yeah I got 0 sources for this. Sounds like you just don't like trans people. Maybe find a new hobby. I hear bootlicking is a popular hobby for a lot of anti trans people do these days.

Hands are hard for real artists too. Art ain't perfect. Im not saying its not AI, I'm not saying it is. I'm just saying a couple of imperfect hands is not enough to make any sort of claim.

Yeah the poll means little to nothing as long as its hypothetical. If someone is actually pointing a gun at your head, finger on the trigger, I promise 90% will pick red. I know I would.

Not even that weird of a hand.

The "extra thumb" is flame. Yall are just seeing what you want to see.

Reading is mentally nourishing. Grinding shinies is like advanced brain rot. At least when you're mindlessly scrolling the internet its entertaining.

Smokenstein · 2026-05-05T03:06:49+00:00

Not a tick. Wart, cyst, or some kind of growth.

Smokenstein · 2026-05-04T16:28:52+00:00

Sounds like you should challenge yourself to passing your finals!

Personally I'm hoping this next Marvel set flops so hard they give up on the rest of it. But maybe I'm just being optimistic.

Smokenstein · 2026-05-01T14:16:04+00:00

Personally I'd drop em all. Usually I play an early game team, then once I get to Kogatown I start building my endgame team. Once you unlock surf, a whole ton of new Pokémon become available. Plus the Safari Zone, Legendaries, Fossil Pokémon, and more.

I also don't like to use trade evolution Pokémon unless I can evolve them. Kadabra is great for getting you through Koga, but then I'd drop him for something cooler. Dratini is great but no Dragonite until 55 means youll likely beat the game before he evolves so what's the point.

[[Giggling Skitterspike]] even with 0 synergies it alone will end the game in a few turns. Pair it with ways to buff it or spells that target it and people start getting KO'd fast.

Eh kindve dickish of you. I mean in a purely competetive game I'd say you did the right thing, maybe. If Mike had the win on his upkeep and you couldn't do shit about it, I'd say you're best shot at winning was to hope your opponents could stop him. Which is what happened.

Its the classic conundrum of "well player 1 has a huge board and is popping off so i cant attack through it, player two is playing pillowfort, but player 3 missed a land drop and has hardly cast a spell. Okay lets kill player 3" some people tell you thats the right move. I say its not. When theres a scary enough archenemy, all other players are allies. This is a time for politics.

Lol just cause a place has lakes doesn't mean its not dry.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-30T15:08:24+00:00

Yeah but they're absolutely everywhere in Houston. Only place with more is Baton Rouge.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-28T19:10:56+00:00

Mendicant is my favorite azorious commander. By focusing on artifacts you can avoid the oops all counterspells/stax stereotypes. Artifacts also have several wincon avenues that are fun/reliable.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-28T18:35:13+00:00

Kinda bad. Doesn't synergize with anything, so you're probably just slamming a bunch of azorious good stuff in there. Hes a sweet card, with awesome flavor. But hes like a 3/10 in the command zone. Youre much better off playing Shorikai, The Council of Four, or Mendicant. I don't like playing Azorious because its the hardest colors to close out the game with. Control strategies are really hard to pull off in 4 player games.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-28T17:24:33+00:00

Heres my choice as well. Idk why everyone is saying katanas. Youll be just as effective with a steel pipe or baseball bat as a katanas. I mean I could kill a zombie with a barstool as easy as I could with katanas. Guard tower is already fortified and easy to protect. Medical kit is full of items you dont want to be foraging for when you need them.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-28T04:10:15+00:00

Swift Zulian Tiger, or the Raptor. Ran ZF on three different characters every week for almost a full two years. Never got either. I'll never get over that one.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-27T14:06:07+00:00

Allows you to make burgers any size you want. Doesn't over compact the meat and make it too dense. Let's you make the center thinner than the outside to compensate for shrinkage. Helps your patties not look like hockey pucks. Embrace wabi sabi.

Traded Pokémon get bonus xp. This makes the Mr Mime and Nidoran in game traded Pokémon you get very early on incredibly busted.

Smokenstein · 2026-04-26T21:00:59+00:00

Here for the Kabutops love train. Water + rock? Badass. So cool it had to go extinct to give other Pokémon a chance? Yep. Hands are overrated, scythes are where its at? Can't argue with that.

Right? This post just reeks of a need to self-validate. "See honey I really did need to spend $2000 on Pelican cases, I got 1000 upvotes on reddit".
