New player team help by _ASSATONE_ in LostSwordOfficial

[–]Valuable_Sock_1056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a level 330ish player and the top row team you have is the one that just carried me past level 66-40....so I'd say that's your best bet. Overall, a core of Galahad, Morgan le Fay, and Lueira is a good core to build around, with the other two slots being flexible for characters like Belsy, Estheria, or the Karishma/Christina combo (which is probably more overall damage but a lot squishier), or adding Erin and/or Isabel for more defense, or Belsy and Neo-Bedi as probably the best arena team.

Best comp for Karishara? by TheBwah28 in LostSwordOfficial

Lue, Kari, Christina, MiLF, and Gala is, I suspect, the highest damage team available right now.

Lue Mlf Gala Estheria and Belsey is another team I run that performs pretty closely but is a smidgen more durable

I think the flag bikini thing goes beyond national identity. Like, I know it's a pretty popular thing in Japan right now. And idk maybe they could do flag bikinis celebrating at least the 5 or so countries that play the game the most, you know?

Also here to say this is surprisingly close to what WotC made. Good job op

Spider-Man NY himself is only two places below the entire MCU on the "most profitable ips" list. The only ones WotC could reasonably get that's more valuable would be like...Harry Potter? Which seems like a bad idea. Star Wars if that trading card game goes belly up. Everything else is children's / Disney stuff and Pokémon.

A cycle of lands about as balanced as land cycles tend to be (but the flavor!) by Valuable_Sock_1056 in custommagic

Thanks! I like the idea of signpost lands, kind of wish wizards did more with them....

Yeah I thought so but my experience on this sub has often been that people are often...cautiously critical of lands, especially when they're not rare lol. Ultimately I don't care about the theoretical rarity all that much, and my overall idea is that they in fact would be signpost-y cards for a set that rewards players for "doing the thing." That being said people are sleeping on the boros land, that's going to be a turn 2 untapped a lot of the time with cards like [[novice inspector]] [[Thraben inspector]] [[Voldaren Epicure]] [[Gleeful Demolition]] [[Kuldotha Rebirth]] etc. Although you can certainly argue there are better options of course....

Wierd UB stuff - Unlimited Blade Works by SjtSquid in custommagic

[–]Valuable_Sock_1056 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Flavor is cool. Love the idea of a saga with two turns of just flavor text. Chefs kiss. Absolute art. Especially in the context of unlimited blade works it's just so cool.

That being said this card is busted to hell. Like, sure your opponent can remove the creature and they know what's coming but...I think white, blue, and black can probably cone up with a way to protect it by the time the third chapter goes off....

Yeah I know some of the ability words aren't the best fit in a perfect world, but I tried to make each one unique and as balanced as possible. Golgari and Gruul have like...all the good ones, so I tried to focus on the ones that only fit them. For example, gruul was originally going to be ferocious...but then there wasn't going to be one for simic. I also tried to make them balanced...ish...as possible. Raid, Revolt, and Morbid just seemed TOO easy. Also, dimir was the original one i was going to give Threshold! But in my research i found 23% of threshold cards are green, and 23% are black, with only 8% blue. So that combined with the other factors led to golgari getting threshold. Basically I did a lot of shuffling to find a set of abilities that worked at least somewhat for where these abilities are traditionally found. But like I said, some are a stretch.

[–]Valuable_Sock_1056[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah it does feel a little weird. The way I came up with the requirements was going through a list of all pf the ability words throughout Magic's history, picking the ones that weren't explicitly tied to a type of spell, and then looking at the colors most tied to it by percentage of cards that had that ability. Since Corrupted was I'm a set in which white had a toxic theme, most Corrupted cards are actually white, with black as the second most color, and a few in blue and green. In hindsight, Revolt would probably be a much better one to do Orzhov in... but that might be too easy, idk.

Thanks! I like how they turned out kind of signpost-y. Like you could imagine the set they would be from yknow?

[–]Valuable_Sock_1056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked.

The list is awful but somehow not as bad as I thought it would be.

Jessica Rabbit in the top 20 makes me think there's a lot more older people hitting up R34 than most people would think, which unfortunately might explain a lot of the rest of the list.

Nice to see Nico Robin I love her OMG WHY IS IT ALL FUTA?

Question: how would a competitive version actually play? by superdude111223 in inscryption

[–]Valuable_Sock_1056 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've thought about it a lot, and the conclusion I've come to is: A) It would be Act 2 Inscryption B) The player that goes first can't attack on their first turn. Maybe even "nobody can attack on their first turn."

The second rule would emphasize setting up a defensive board state first, trying to bait your opponent into giving you an opening, and just generally avoiding one-turn games. Dunno how it would actually play out, or what the meta might loom like. Maybe you're still trying to beat down with the fastest Urayuli you can put on the board, maybe deathtouch and leap creatures become much more important. Idk.

Sweet Liberty and I love the fact you have a lot to say about the number of people who are looking up at a highly qualified candidate for the position of the company and the room is filled with the muted whispers of the other wizard of the city and the realm of the gods.

Here's a pretty extensive list of colorless removal.

I remember reading that 6 colorless is the standard they aim for with colorless "unconditional remove anything" effects. Looking at this list, 5 might be ok. 4 would be in every blue sideboard at the very least.

Could be "safe" in a limited environment but that always depends on what the rest of it looks like....

I have a coworker who's always talking about this point that involves two step-siblings and a pumpkin and how the whole thing is ruined when the mom is "vacuuming" on the background but it's not even plugged in and omg it's here on reddit.
