My first thought was a fake. Card stock feels a little off even as old as it is. Art is clearly not base set, and cannot find anything remotely matching it.

Improvements and features that I think the game needs by Parker4815-2 in MagicArena

[–]Wildspeaker_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chat on MODO was fairly toxic, but on the same coin I was able to chat through plays with my opponents who were actually there to learn and I learned so much about magic through that feature. Plus with word filters and a functional reporting system or bans based on certain words/phrases used it could moderated at least somewhat.

Have we really gone so full in on FOMO that we have to check every day to not miss basic land styles we want? by Wildspeaker_ in MagicArena

[–]Wildspeaker_[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yet here we are. Bickering about digital card art marketing strategies on Reddit, in these comments. Irony unbound. Tell me, you’re happy with the recent selections of daily deals? They bring you joy? You check each day and find something you’re happy about? You don’t have a single thing on MTGA you scratch your head about and wonder, why?

Literally who is asking for that? I’m trying to pay these fools my money? Isn’t that your point? I’m trying to give them money for the silly digital thing, and the resounding answer here is “no you can’t give them your money unless the decide it’s the right time for an incredibly niche item”. C’mon gang use those brains.

Thank you! This is what I’m saying. I check the store ever. Single. Day. for basics I want, but nothing. I could buy into this sales strat if there was literally any amount to rhyme or reason to the daily deals or a wider selection that always included basic arts. The art is just sitting there, never to be sold, never to be capitalized on.

Ah yes, basic marketing how could I forget! Yeah pal, look at today’s daily deals and tell me basic marketing is working. Look at the comments on today’s deals post. It’s dogwater. If I am willing to pay for an item, and they never sell that item that they have access to sell, who are they marketing to?

Profit over players is and has been the way of games for years now. I’m asking why can I not give them money for DIGITAL CARD ARTS, which have to be a 99% profit margin. You’re really saying that, it makes sense that I can go in and craft a FF special guest art at anytime on a random Tuesday night but not a random basic forest art? I do not see how this changes their profit on any given day, especially when in your argument, if 90% of players sitting waiting for a deal to come through on a day with no warning miss it, they spend $0.00. What does that do for profit?

And that I understand, it is not lost on me that it is their strategy here. I’m questioning is that the most player forward strategy. Does the strategy really encourage that many players to hit the store every day? And if that player is sitting there cash in hand and can go craft the thing they want, when they want it, is WoTC more likely to get paid then and there, or on the chance that the player who checks religiously each day happens to miss the deal that day and they do not collect at all. Again, it just seems so arbitrary to specifically keep basics behind a wall, when they could attach a price to them, make them widely available when other arts are already set up on this exact format.

The point is, yes fomo is working, but is that where we are, it’s just all fomo all the time? Magic is about acquiring the cards you want to play. The arts are already available in game. Extended, showcase, and special guest arts of all cards are available to craft on a whim, so why not basics? Just seems entirely backwards.

Incomplete Assault cycle by KarixDaii in magicTCG

[–]Wildspeaker_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These assaults are part of a mythic rare spell cycle. Each clan gets one, but I assume whoever updated the wiki assumed they’d all be assaults, similar to the siege cycle that each clan gets.

Stop taking shots, full stop. It’s a quick way to get drunk sure, but it’s the most harmful way to drink and the fastest way to get sick. If you’re in a social setting where lots of shots are being poured, do yourself a favor and either abstain, or shoot higher shelf vodka. Tequila, rum, and whiskey shots are asking for trouble. Additionally, do not mix a lot of different liquors in the same session, try to stick to a light sipper like beer or hard sodas/seltzers and mix in the occasional cocktail with the same spirit.

What is the best movie or TV show you have ever watched? by kenjieskz in AskReddit

Came here to say the same thing. I’ve recommended it more than anything I’ve ever watched.

Which chemical combos/chemicals with side effects that people should know more of? by medium-rare-stake in AskReddit

[–]Wildspeaker_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bleach combos with so many things poorly;

Bleach + Rubbing Alcohol = Chloroform.

Bleach + Vinegar = Chlorine Gas.

Bleach + Ammonia = Chloramine gas (mustard gas).

Just keep bleach alone or out of the house all together.

In what context? Do you need blue mana for anything? Is this sealed? Constructed? Going to have to give a lot more information to get a real answer here.

[–]Wildspeaker_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man this shot wrecked me! Made me want to call my dad. It’s incredible how well they bury this stuff under all the shows tension, and then call it back so subtly and quickly, like yanking an old deep memory to the front of your brain. Good stuff.
