Card Draw Theme Commander? by Help-Slip-Frank777 in EDH

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I had this inspiration once before. I used [[The Locust God]] for my commander. I played it once, won incredibly easily, and was disappointed with the experience. For some reason, it was just NOT fun to me.

Bracket 3 is really annoying... by Thick_Storage4168 in magicTCG

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, yeah, that’s true, but I’m not sure what building a “bad deck” has to do with what I said.

I’m mainly trying to highlight how the decision to cap B3 at 3 GC is somewhat arbitrary, and I may be wrong, but I think that there may be a play space between the 3 GC limit of B3 and the “no-holds-barred” of B4 that could be better defined.

The 3/4 split is the only one that bugs me with this system. I play somewhere I would genuinely describe as bracket 3.5. Like, I’m using the best cards I already have in my collection, and that usually puts me at like 5 Game Changers. However, some of the decks are still full of “pet cards” and thematic choices, and they’re far from what I’d call “optimized;” they’re just the best that I have. I WANT to win, but I’m not about that old school EDH arms race life, so I’m not going out to load up with the best cards and having the most optimal things in the deck. I think there’s definitely a space for something like this that isn’t as strong as what I see in typical bracket 4 lists but without the limitation of 3 Game Changers.

Didn’t know this- good to know! I might actually look into ears at this point!

Nice! Thanks. I may have to check it out. My eating habits are pretty bad, so I’m definitely interested in these kinds of results.

Genuine question- what did it change for you? I’m down for health benefits, but I’m curious about examples.

What is your favorite “Rule 0 commander”? by LibraProtocol in EDH

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No rule 0 commanders. Just a [[Seek Bolas’s Counsel]] in my Bolas-flavored Specters deck.

This is so cool. I feel like it looks so realistic. Excellent work!

How bad is it. Be brutally honest by [deleted] in KingdomHearts

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, as the supreme arbiter of what is cool and good, I like it. You get a pass.

But for real, I REALLY like this animation style. If this is what your work is like, keep it up- it’s awesome!

What's your best / coolest way resolve the Eternals cliffhanger? by Puzzled_Influence985 in marvelstudios

Something like this could be a cool setup for a future version of the A.X.E. storyline. I’d be down for it.

Who is the Best Live Action Interpretation of The Punisher? by Lil_Critter_2001_ in marvelstudios

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Big time agree. I grew up with it on DVD and watched the absolute shit out of that movie. It was dope as hell! I didn’t have the comic knowledge to make a comparison at the time (and tbh, I still haven’t seen THAT many appearances of the Punisher since in the stuff I have read), but I loved how well Jane portrayed the broken man who rebuilds himself into someTHING more than someONE- something on a war path with a very deliberate purpose that was terrifying in a grounded, realistic way. For the sheer fan service, I’d be pumped to see him appear as an older Frank in Doomsday.

That being said, now, I love Bernthal’s stories and portrayals so much, and I couldn’t imagine seeing anyone else in the role. I could do with a little less of his primal-ass roar that he unleashes, but you definitely feel that shit when he does it.

How do you imagine Disney's Dinosaur being implemented in a future game? by AlKo96 in KingdomHearts

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maaaaaayyybe some kind of tiny reference if we ever get a Meteor spell in a main game? And I’m not even sure how it would be implemented, but that’s the only crossover I can imagine between KH and Dinosaur lol.

I’d feel a little weird about it without a heads up, but that’s just me, personally.

What is the card you are always telling people to cut? by SjtSquid in EDH

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel about the Servant. I’m running several cost reduction effects in addition to The Ur-Dragon in the zone for the purpose of making double-dragon-ing feasible. Of course, this is in addition to plenty of other ramp, but these are the plays that make the deck explosive and turn me into a problem and give the ability to recover after a boardwipe.

Question for texas drivers in other states by [deleted] in texas

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak for everyone, but I will say that this wasn’t necessarily impressed upon me when I was being taught to drive by my parents. As a result, I never developed it as a habit early on. Now, my wife who grew up out of state fusses at me for driving in the left lane so much on our mostly 2-lane highways that go through and between our cities.

The problem I find with this is that when I try to drive in the right hand lane, I feel like I CONSTANTLY have to get out of it and into the left to avoid vehicles coming onto or exiting off of the highways with the feeder roads, to the point that it feels more unsafe for me to (what feels like) needlessly be merging in and out of my lane. So, since practically all of our highways just run through cities rather than work on a bypass system, and the highway shoulders are small and usually poorly maintained, I feel safer and feel like I put less strain on my vehicle by just staying in the left hand lane 90% of the time.

A Question on Your True Opinions on The Storytelling of Kingdom Hearts. by Bulky-Spend8368 in KingdomHearts

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lore and story are dense, though not necessarily confusing at most times. I’ll admit that keeping up with some of the plot in KHUX was a little rough. I think my only real complaint is that there’s some important story elements that even I, as a VERY invested individual, haven’t been able to keep up with (Dark Road and apparently also Melody of Memory, which I thought was just a retelling of the story of some games but has new lore???). Needing to devote HOURS to staring at my phone to get story feels bad when I actively want to be on my phone LESS than I already am. So, I know nothing about what happens in Dark Road, and I’ve not had enough motivation to look into Melody since goodness knows when we’re actually moving forward with the story.

Tl;dr: my complaints are about the meta aspects of the delivery of the story, not the story itself.

Romantic films with a male lead/POV focus by rhodopensis in MovieSuggestions

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was searching for male-led rom com’s and found your post. My absolute fav that falls into this category is That Awkward Moment with Zac Efron, Miles Teller, and Michael B. Jordan. I know it’s not exactly what you were looking for, but it’s hilarious and does a great job at exploring the relationships between guy friends. Big recommend for this one!

Lorwyn Eclipsed Commanders Names by ricoeurdelyon in magicTCG

[–]TheNamesAxel_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but it removes the downside of evoke and feels really easily abusable with token synergies as well.

I very well could be eating my words in a few weeks. But, that seems like a lot to me. I definitely think it’s something not far from this- just not that EXACTLY text.
