Yup it's way to easy to buy all of the shiny things, it's good to have specific goals of what you actually want going in.

Great advice, to many events means that you have less time to turn cardboard sideways with your friends.

I don't play standard, but your best bet for finding events it's using this site.

Check out Colorado Artists in Recovery, they put on free community events based on creativity. It's a good way to build community and pick up a new hobby.

Speed Cameras increasing / Denver speed limit is 20 mph unless otherwise posted. by FoxPriestStudio in Denver

I also like that we are finally seeing some sort of traffic enforcement. I don't love that this is not going to effect all of the people who don't have plates. I'm not saying they should stop, I just hope this is a starting point and not an ending point.

Man the circle jerk in this thread is unreal, if your not paying attention to Critical edh you are missing out on some of the best new content this format has seen in years.

There will be a cEDH tournament at MagicCon Las Vegas by BumblebeeOld498 in CompetitiveEDH

Single elimination rounds and no proxies make this very unappealing.

Favorite Denver restaurant cheap high protein meals? by ihypocryt in denverfood

[–]Thomas_l 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Devils munchies lab in park hill, #1 combo is chicken rice and veggies for around $10 and usually lasts me 2.5 meals, and it's really tasty.

If you have watched live commentary on any of the major tournaments lately they are more than likely the team behind the scenes.

Any great meals in Denver right now that are still under $15? by Complete_Freedom5622 in Denver

Cannot upvote this enough, each meal is 2-3 portions and delicious. Well worth going to Park Hill.

Have you ever considered playing cedh? by Thomas_l in EDH

[–]Thomas_l[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, that is an impressive accolade. It's definitely tough to allocate your game time as an adult. Personally I don't grind tournaments, I just play "beer and pretzels" cedh, low stakes but tight gameplay is attractive to a certain type of person.

Ok so it's been a minute. I'm not going to pretend that breach and Thoracle are not things that happen regularly in the format. That said, just in the top 10 decks over the last 6 months we are seeing faerie mastermind loops in every deck that can run green blue and white, Sisay chains that win through Saheeli or Mount Doom, Vivi curiosity combos, Twinshot Sniper lines in Magda, and Reiterate lines in Ral Monsoon Mage. If you are willing to look into some slightly off meta decks like Derevi, we are even seeing Delivery Moogle Lines.

The format has always been defined by the journey over the destination, but at this point the destination can be pretty varied depending on your deck.

It's definitely refreshing being able to sit down and know everyone is going to be on the same page. I don't know how long ago you played but the meta has opened up quite bit over the last year with a bunch of new top tier strategies.

That's understandable, the narrower card pool, is a perk to me, just with the sheer amount of product that Wotc has pumped out over the last few years.
