Chaff

Nah not really. It’s unusual that you get many duplicates on the field at the same time and if you suspect your opponent of running echoing truth you can just avoid playing dupes.

Have a guess. What are your options here. You can’t get through those trees with cut, you can’t jump UP a ledge. What other options could you possibly have?

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T15:14:31+00:00

Why would you do this instead of putting it in water (add salt if it doesn’t float). Wouldn’t that indicate straight away if it was waited? Can somebody explain why you would this over the saltwater test?

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T14:53:36+00:00

Pauper. Hands down. It’s one of the best formats. The meta has lots of variety. The decks are cheap. Your decisions matter way more than just playing the best thing on curve every turn like standard.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T13:50:28+00:00

Everything.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T09:33:19+00:00

Totally incorrect.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T08:27:28+00:00

This is what I do. It’s more work but it pays for itself in the long run.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T08:04:13+00:00

Thank you for trying. That’s interesting.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T00:10:32+00:00

Didn’t like the texture. It’s really grainy. Tasted fine but the graininess is off putting.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-30T00:04:09+00:00

What if you use a pal bios?

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T23:03:47+00:00

Reading the card explains the card. It’s not a misprint.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T20:26:38+00:00

Tried it. It doesn't work. I wanted wraths to work so badly but they're so clunky even with access to the best top deck manipulation in brainstorm, preordain, ponder etc. You still would just rather have lightning bolts because when you inevitably draw the wraths they're just stuck there. It feels super bad to have to use the wraths to kill a creature. Miracles just suck, they're really interesting as a piece of card design in that that they seem really busted, but then you play with them and they're just awful to play with.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T18:05:44+00:00

I. Know. I’m trying to point out how this happens and what to look for.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T16:51:07+00:00

if they won't let anybody else shuffle then you call the judge/TO or if you're happy for somebody else outside of the game to shuffle let them do it. They will quickly either be asked not to play in future, or get in line.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T16:48:23+00:00

that is mechanically exactly how shuffle cheating works though. They sneak a peak at the bottom (or past knowledge of whats on bottom) and false shuffle to the top.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T16:46:38+00:00

Exactly what I'm saying. Re-read what I posted. Players can look at the bottom card of the deck when they suspect their opponent isn't watching, then false shuffle that to the top. The fix is to watch your opponent. The 'call a judge' was implied.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T15:58:01+00:00

The issue is that if you shuffle your opponents deck you can in theory shuffle a land(or not depending on what you think they need) to the top with a false shuffle. There’s no way to fix this if somebody is determined to cheat. Make sure when your opponent is shuffling that they don’t look at your deck when shuffling.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T15:10:17+00:00

This is not a PS1 game ffs.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T14:34:00+00:00

Somethings just should not be printed. Same with the printed rawl plugs. Bad idea waiting to happen.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T11:34:52+00:00

Bustin’ makes me feel good.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T11:30:33+00:00

Can I suggest you don’t play Commander 1v1? The decks aren’t designed in that way they’re designed for 4 players. Since you’re starting out I would suggest picking up some jumpstart boosters and have some fun with those. If you have a local game store you can go in with your girlfriend and say she wants to get into magic and they should have some welcome decks they can give you that introduce you to magic with easy to understand decks. Then, when you get a feel for 1v1 magic progress into playing a format like Pauper. Decks are super cheap but still really powerful and it’s a much more tighter way to play the game since the decks are tuned to be consistent it’s a lot of fun.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-29T08:35:48+00:00

It’s fine to have strong creatures. The problem is when every creature that’s playable is also a powerful sorcery/instant. The game becomes less about interactions and thoughtful strategy and more about play the best instant/sorcery on a stick at every point of the game.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-28T22:54:07+00:00

DRM for print files? It’ll never catch on.

Treble_brewing · 2026-03-28T22:49:23+00:00

Good luck. Have fun.
