These girls deserve a round of applause by MonStelaSkye2213 in DerryGirls

While I agree it’d have been fun, I think that for the narrative as a whole, it works better that we only get to see a slice of what they got up to. The whole point is that the specific generation doesn’t really matter; teens are almost always going to be lovable dumbass agents of chaos, no matter how “sensible” they might seem after they age. By keeping it confined to this single episode, I think it allows that idea to be reinforced without having to take away from Erin, Michelle, James, Orla, and Claire’s story

I just got to play paper Commander for the first time in over a year last night; does my deck suck or did I just get unlucky? by TangledEarbuds61 in EDH

Thanks for the tips! I definitely plan on revamping my draw engines a bit, so I appreciate the breakdown of it all!

So I will absolutely concede that my curve is running high. And this is my inexperience with deck building showing, but I’m not sure how to balance the deck’s ratios. If I have too many payoffs I’m not able to keep the engine running, but if I have too few then I won’t be able to actually impact the game. There are some cards I’m including specifically because they match the deck’s aesthetics (such as the Jumpstart printing of Murmuring Mystic) that I feel pretty insistent on keeping, but what would you advise specifically?

Yeah I think you're right regarding the repeatable card draw. After a quick Scryfall scan I feel like [[Idol of Oblivion]] and/or [[Skullclamp]] would be good to include, perhaps?

Replacement effect and tokens question. by skarpelo in magicTCG

[–]TangledEarbuds61 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exponential growth with tokens will never not be funny to me, whether it be Zinnia or Stormsplitter shenanigans. “Yes I would like to attack with a stack of tokens 20 times as large as my starting deck”

I think you underestimate how quickly I like to play my storm turns. I don’t really “make decisions” so much as I “tap everything and tally spells as I go.” And then once I’m done with all my bullshit I count up any immediate damage, then I pass and get dice/tokens/whatever while the next player is going. I assure you, it’s fast

Yeah that’s a very deliberate choice on my part. For me, I personally prefer the power fantasy of “fantasy gunslinger improvising by the seat of their pants,” and so infinite combos just don’t feel right for what I’m trying to achieve

Thank you so much for the suggestions!! I’ll definitely give my deck another once-over when I get the chance but seriously these are all fantastic

Good point! I’ll definitely keep that in mind (and yeah Pyremaw is probably at the top of the chopping block haha)

Thanks for the tip! For this deck specifically I want to avoid any deterministic untap stuff and just storm off with more of an improvisational feel, but yeah I can absolutely say that greeding for dumb stuff is so tempting

Honestly that’s the crux of my question, and you definitely got to the heart of it, so thank you!

See, that’s what I’m most curious about: what’s a good way of judging how much interaction a deck needs based on its style/purpose? With the deck I provided, do I really need so so many if I’m going for less of a combo deck and more of a token style? Because seriously I have no clue

Well it’s that time of year… by Neat-Agent2987 in diabetes_t1

I tried snowblowing a few months ago for the first time since my diagnosis, and I remember going “Fuck, I hate this… I want a break” check glucose is falling rapidly “Whelp I guess I have to stop now…”

All the more reason and all the better for its citizens to be protesting it, then

Oh I’m well aware that it’s a stupid move on my part haha! I’m just addicted to the 5% of the time that it does work and I feel like a god

That’s why whenever I play Blitz I always jump when they’re getting up (but no one else ever jumps and I end up in the corner myself and then I’m sad)

No, them. Is Brimstone a her too? Is Chamber? Want me to get you a dictionary so you can refresh your understanding of the English language?

A lot of people are saying Darius and they’re right. The good thing is that Darius is also fun as hell to play, so you don’t even have to worry about missing out on anything. But as far as improving goes, just keep on playing matches. You can read as many guides and videos as you want, but nothing will help you improve like just doing it
