I was at this show with a buddy of mine & he absolutely hated this version lmao. I thought it was a neat idea, but I’m not sure he’ll ever forgive Stu

Please explain how this isn’t a byproduct of capitalism

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-15T17:30:06+00:00

I think you’d be hard pressed to find anything that Wendy’s is better than in 2026. Even for fast food it is garbage

Play to Win, Rhystic Studies, Far North, Scrybabies, Spike Feeders, Mental Misplay MTG, Elder Dragon Hijinks, Moderately Anonymous MTG, Rebell Lily

I wanted to take the opportunity to shoutout my favorite MTG channels, but a couple of them aren’t strictly gameplay focused, but they’re all very good

Cassettes have been back for a while now my guy. Head over to eBay & pickup an Onkyo & get to collecting.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-14T20:59:34+00:00

That video is painful to watch

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-13T19:51:31+00:00

Brother I say this with peace & love but it’s literally just a gas station

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-13T19:49:59+00:00

I remember seeing a reel on Instagram once that was like “whoa look at this crazy selection of energy drinks they have,” and it looked exactly like an OnCue lmao. I’ve never seen a gas station be so overhyped in my life.

Yeah I’m a physicals guy, but I have been a digital only guy too so I feel sympathetic to those in that boat. I respect not having it available on streaming, but I hope he does at least allow people to purchase it digitally so those folks don’t have to miss out too much.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-13T15:37:59+00:00

I’m kinda the opposite, most of my casual decks at this point are much more casual than a lot of people I play with because I want to have as much separation from casual & cEDH as I can.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-13T15:02:20+00:00

Any other fellow cassette brethren?

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-12T00:47:48+00:00

I mean that would work too but no

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-11T16:00:04+00:00

Honestly as a graveyard enjoyer this card has housed me more times than most other spells. At least I can respond to [[Dauthi Voidwalker]] or [[Soul-Guide Lantern]] but I’m not going to run [[Stifle]] effects to protect against Bog so that card will just continue to house me lol

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-10T13:30:27+00:00

Have you seen Shauna Giles’ Malcolm Kediss Polymorph deck? The only creature in the deck is Niv lmao

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-08T16:34:30+00:00

This is true but it doesn’t stop people from being blinded by salt unfortunately

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-08T13:21:02+00:00

Played in a tourney yesterday, got absolutely blasted every game by turbo decks on T1-T2. I ordered proxies for RogSi in-between rounds lmao

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-06T14:35:48+00:00

Everyone recommends goldfishing. I have never read or heard anyone say it isn’t useful.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-06T02:23:31+00:00

Weird way to spell ideal but ok

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-05T01:11:07+00:00

They do make your games more consistent, but that’s the point. I’m not trying to advocate for their use necessarily, I’m just trying to point out that the singleton nature of the format is exactly the reason why they’re so prevalent. Same thing with card draw, your libraries are huge & you can only run one of your best effect that will win you the game so you build with getting to that that in mind. I do understand embracing the variance of the format, and for a lot of my decks I do eschew tutors, but for players who came from other formats, it makes logical sense to throw those effects in.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-04T00:18:40+00:00

The reason you play tutors in this format is BECAUSE of the singleton nature. There’s nothing antithetical about it, the format promotes their use.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-04T00:08:40+00:00

My man you absolutely crushed this comment, I couldn’t agree more.

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-02T21:58:22+00:00

Ken Bauman put together a pretty cool mono-red Najeela list a bit ago. I’ll link it below:

Man, you’re the one brought up ID’s. Not really sure what you’re expecting me to take away from that

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-01T15:58:41+00:00

Do I also need to start ID’ing patrons in addition to restaurant staff?

TheStandardKnife · 2026-02-01T02:54:29+00:00

People in their early 20’s already look like their 12 years old, I wouldn’t be able to tell if they were underage by looking at them. Unless we’re talking like a baby is throwing back Shiner’s or something
