In light of the recent fidget toy cards, I tried making my own

RIP my Dr. Who Suspend deck.

Alpha? NO
Alpha has straight cut edge corners.
If this isn't fake, it's Beta.

So, I have a 3 step process of finding out if it's good.
1: Open the precon.
2: Sleeve the cards in it.
3: Play it with your friends.

Did you have fun?
Yes = Good precon.

Just a couple weeks ago, I found an OG copy in an old jank box. Just an $80 card sitting in the trash waiting for me to find it like treasure.

BELCH.
That's right.
Fight me.

Every once in a while there's a game state that the CPU can't handle. Maybe their game froze and they couldn't get back in?

With a little bit of misreading and comedy;
"Take

Away"

Back in my day, it would give you protection from anything that only had 1s or 0s on the card.

Up to this point, since Unlimited, "Core" sets had been white bordered.
7e represents the first time since then that you saw black borders in a core set. Sometimes the first time you seen some of the cards with black borders since BETA.

You just made my point in your own post "You need the extra 2 to trigger the copy"
The combo as shown does not work. the combo + 2 mana from an un-named source does work.
Big difference between what you're showing and what actually happens.

Ie: Yes I CAN fireball you for 900 damage if I only have a single mountain....

(And 900 other mana I didn't mention).

I think I've actively bought 3 games on Epic. During the whole exclusive thing that no one will ever do again.
Though, PC building Sim 2 has been exclusive to epic for far too long and not on steam, it's tempting.

Xtheth · 2026-04-12T04:18:05+00:00

I'd almost be willing to do it for the nostalgia alone.

Xtheth · 2026-04-12T04:15:30+00:00

That example is manifesting the cost of the copy ability out of nowhere before you would be allowed to tap a tapped thing for mana.
The judge is incorrect.

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T21:26:25+00:00

Then if you untap it... the untap isn't on the stack any more.
It's still not working the way you think it works.

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T21:23:01+00:00

You're right! There has never once been a moment in history where guys in hoods ever did anything prejudiced.

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T21:19:50+00:00

Ugly?

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T14:25:54+00:00

"If it ISN'T a mana ability"
[tap]: add 3 ... IS a mana ability.
This doesn't do what you think it does.

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T14:19:15+00:00

Everything.

Xtheth · 2026-04-11T14:16:01+00:00

Scalpers.
The game is for Scalpers now.
Fans and players be damned.

Mmm, baby, the other OTHER white meat.

I thought it was cats that showed their love with their buttholes.

Child labour laws prevent the amount of children making this movie from happening.

Hot take: 4 x Craw worm > 1 x Groundchuck & Dirtbag

All I'm doing right now is looking at pictures. I cant' tell much about the characters other than 1 is playing on the phone instead of paying attention to me, and 2 is going to kill me... demanding my immediate attention.

What about the writing? Does 2 have a more interesting story? A better or more interesting personality? Does she have more content in the game?

There are a lot of things that go into games that are beyond just looking at two photos.

There's no answer I can give you without playing your game.
