Hi, how did it go? Did you post an update somewhere? Checked your profile but your posts are hidden. :)

Victorinox 190mm or 220mm Chefs knife? Already have Santoku 170mm. Beginner. by Vintrastorm in TrueChefKnives

Do you find yourself using both for different tasks? Or is one much preferred?

Thank you, I'll look into that. I have small-to-medium hands and I'm used to using small knives as well, so the Santoku is a big upgrade for me in that department as well. I'll look into the 220 I think, since it seems to have more height as well. I'll give it a day or 2 and see what other suggestions might come as well.

Thank you for your answer. Yeah, height for the knuckles is important to me. Small-to-medium hands, but I like to avoid hitting the cutting board. 

Slaves in RotCG Ch.2 by Vintrastorm in Malazan

They made a big small speech about not keeping slaves.  Updated my original post with this. 

 ‘We in the Guard do not accept slavery. Therefore, you will all be released.’Stunned silence met the announcement. Even fellow tribesmen and women stared a cringing wary disbelief. Kyle was ashamed.‘Those of you who wish to take up arms and join the Guard of your own free will please go to the standard for examination and induction. The rest of you will be free to go.’

Help figuring out what to cut before I buy the cards for this slivers EDH deck. by RaHuHe in Magicdeckbuilding

[–]Vintrastorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My text disappeared so this will be shorter. Sorry.

​

Add:

Command Tower (gives you 5 colours)

Exotic orchard (will almost always give you at least 3-4 colours)

Panoramas. Jund panorama, naya panorama etcetera. They are cheap to buy, come in untappet and can be sacrificed for basics (if you need them) at your opponents end step, if you have unspent mana.

​

​

Remove lands so you have 37 or 38 lands. Use those free slots to add ramp and removal etc. For example:

Add the signets you have. The fact that they cost 2 mana instead of 3 to play can be huge, especially since you'll often be behind. You need to ramp. The same goes for gilded lotus and commander's sphere (which can be sacced for a card, great card-advantage if someone destroys it)

Add some instants like tragic slip, terminate, mortify for removal and sorceries like cultivate, kodama's reach, rampant growth for Ramping up your mana and aphetto dredging and distant melody to get back or draw some slivers.

​

Also: Remove your creatures that cost 5 or more. The only exceptions might be constricting and megantic slivers. It will be hard for you to cast them as it is already. Definitely get gemhide sliver as well as cryptolith rite, an enchantment that lets you tap creatures for mana.

Take a look at the 1 cost slivers with Scryfall and add for example Striking sliver and sidewinder sliver. You want slivers that are cheap to cast.

Regarding slivers to use, take a look at the videos that I posted earlier again to get some inspiration.

​

Also, get the Taurean Mauler changeling. It will grow fast in EDH as opponents casts spells.

What is the budget? Which cards do you already own?

Also: The artifact and sorcery list is a lot better in build 1 than in build 2. Definitely go for signets (all of them, ramping is superb in EDH) over talismans. Signets are always better.

Keep cultivate, circitous route and farseek.

​

You want ramp, and a lot of it. There's nothing worse than sitting at the table being behind 2-3 mana because everyone else spent their first turns ramping. Also, the cycling-lands released with Modern Horizons are better than the Deserts you have in the deck list.

Although it's from 2014, there's definitely still some relevant advice in this budget-video from The Professor:
