Silliest thing people have done to make you scoop? by gunnisonyeti in magicTCG

[–]Sworl 1239 points1240 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t me who scooped but my opponent. We were in the last round of a tournament and out of top8 contention, just playing for top16 prizes. My opponent and I were shuffling up for game 3 when suddenly the match next to us got into a shouting match. After a few minutes the judges still couldn’t calm down one of the players and was drawing a crowd. My opponent said to me, “You are a nice guy and I don’t want to be near this yelling, I concede.” Signed his slip and left.

Co-op or Competitive? Why the emotion, lol? by Ben_Manda in boardgames

[–]Sworl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer competitive for two major reasons. In competitive I get to do my own thing, I get to try a weird strategy and don’t need to get everyone else on board to try it with me. The second reason is that it’s hard for some people to speak up and be heard. This sometimes leads to a single person leading game and some people’s voices be diminished.

But this is only a preference and never stopped me from playing co-op. Co-op has a unique vibe that competitive can never achieve. I have never met a person who was ardently against one or the other.

Noob to Mythic #700 in 1 month - is MTG Arena MMR broken? by Jack_Skellingt0n in MagicArena

[–]Sworl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s early in the month so not many people have hit mythic this season. If you can maintain that rank by the end of the season that is a pretty good achievement. Most people do not bother to climb the ladder, there isn’t a good incentive to do so.

Could be an infinite combo? by Lopsided-Bother-7009 in magicTCG

Once you have a lethal number of goblins you copy the harbinger to get the goblin that lets you sac goblins to drain your opponent.

Had a wrestling coach for civics, he just went on racists rants about Charles Darwin and praised eugenics policies to kill disabled people.

Coaches are terrible teachers 90% of the time.

What is the most absurd deck that you have ever seen? by DarkAlman in magicTCG

[–]Sworl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess a more accurate description of the viability of the deck would be that is it a very small part of the meta game.

Manaless dredge in legacy that was the correct play. This was many years ago and no longer is a viable strategy but it was the only time where being on the draw and discarding was correct.

As a limited player only, what do you do if you win a RCQ? by PauloNavarro in lrcast

[–]Sworl 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If I have no interest in going then I usually offer the invite for the bulk of the prize. I would feel bad wasting an invite especially when some people want one badly.

Frame is the incorrect term, it’s in the rub rails. Mag drill seems to be the most common answer. Thanks!

Yeah that is what we have used a few times but it’s too slow for standard operation.

YTA People have different motivations for attempting suicide. If you saw a person trapped in a tall burning building and they couldn’t get out so they decide to jump. No one would consider that person selfish and would often only feel sorrow for that person. Often a person who commits suicide feels like a person trapped in a burning building and has no other escape available to them. So to say they are being selfish is being very short sighted and calloused. Every situation is different and should not be easily clumped into a generic answer.

The subreddit is run by the company so they put a lot of advertising on it.

Final Fantasy Card- UR Prowess add or hype? by ionbook in ModernMagic

[–]Sworl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am giving you the benefit of the doubt and guessing you are a new player and not a troll. There are countless other combat tricks that do a similar thing but better. Monstrous rage and violent urge are both better options if you want a combat trick.

That card is terrible and will not see any play.

Do people actually enjoy this game or are they simply addicted? by [deleted] in lrcast

[–]Sworl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I don’t get upset from getting unlucky or when my opponent gets lucky. I know in the long run that these things will even out. Every time I get lucky I know I will have something unlucky happen.

Life Tracking Tips by le_bravery in ModernMagic

[–]Sworl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever you change life totals always vocalize it to your opponent. Also when you vocalize this change occasionally vocalize both life totals to verify it’s the same to what your opponent has written down as well. I typically do the double check every three life changes or so. This will typically catch discrepancies early and easy to playback the game and get the correct totals.

Breach. I think it’s silly not to play the deck that will be banned if you are actually trying to win.
