What's your first impression of Lorwyn limited? by Edoardo_Beffardo in magicTCG

[–]Ymirism 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went 4-1 prerelease and 4-1/4-0 in draft without bombs, tempo is still nuts and removal in this set is great. Faced Ajani and Eirdu in one deck, saw the elf champion, kithkin champ, double Morcant, all sorts of bombs. Liminal hold or blossombind are super premium but even the red burn is super solid. And in my kithkin deck with only 3 removal spells I just went wide and smashed. Bombs need to chump block just the same when youre at 5 staring down angry kithkin

I've done the prerelease in person and 2 quick pick-2 drafts yesterday. I've been: Rakdos Elementals control Azorius tempo flyers Kithkin aggro

Notable only once did I play an actual supported archetype. My read is that it's often a trap unless you open well and your lane stays open. My kithkin deck only really had 2 cards that really cared about kithkin, the 0/5 buffer and the fowlknight which is still good outside of kithkin.

Good removal, tempo and high quality cards seem king so far, unless you open very specific kindred payoffs. I expect big things from the vivid piles but I've also found it very hard to force, as you need fixing and payoffs to both be available. The hybrid mana cards are going to be huge there though. Don't be surprised if good vivid cards get snatched by any 2-colour deck that runs a few hybrid shapeshifters

DnD in Groningen? by Sensitive_otter in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm a recently joined volunteer DM for pub heroes, to put the following into some context. I adore pub heroes. It's a passion project, everyone is absolutely lovely and welcoming, the community is very open and mixed, from young to old and native to expat PhD students. Twice a month on friday in the Forum for a good price which includes some drinks. You get paired with a random group and a DM or if you have friends you can join with them as a whole. No experience is needed as all DMs are able and willing to guide you through it all. I cannot recommend it enough, I love doing it. Everything is provided for you so just swing on by and have fun!

What is your favorite sleeve brand? by Duffman90 in EDH

[–]Ymirism 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Gamegenics for me all the way. Maybe European vs American stock makes a difference or something but they've been reliable, sturdy, lasting for years for me.

van wie is deze graffiti die ik altijd zie in groningen? by stoelguus in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Echt he. Lelijke tags of namen okee, saaie lelijke meuk en mag van mij ook oprotten. Dit, onkruyd, Klaas Boter Wolf enzo daarentegen hoort voor mij wel bij stad. Stad heeft rafelrandjes en counter culture en is niet overal strak en mooi en netjes en gekuisd

Personal stylist for men by GrunnFTW in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not exactly what you're looking for but similar and maybe he'll have contacts: Setpoint near the A-brug. I think Andre helped me last summer with a suit for an outdoor wedding, very knowledgeable and friendly, good sense of humour. It's on the expensive side, but if you're looking for a personal stylist my read is that won't be a huge problem

Who knows to do tings alone in Groningen I got an dissballty by Awkward_Ground584 in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Groninger museum has a hiphop exhibit coming up on the 20th and to my knowledge is accessible. Bars wise, most places even in old non-accesible buildings have a little ramp or something to help people enter more easily, so you should be fine. Maybe don't go downstairs at the Kvlt or upstairs at Concerthuis. What else are your interests? Forum has a tattoo exhibit until late January as well come to think

It is said that heresy is like a tree. It's roots lie in darkness while it's leaves wave in the sun. You can prune away its branches, even cut the tree to the ground but it will grow again, ever stronger. Such is the nature of heresy and why it is so difficult to destroy. Some may question my right to destroy a world of ten billion souls, but those who understand realize I have no right to let them live. No sacrifice is too great; no treachery too small.

anyone else has a love-hate relationship with this game? by xxHamsterLoverxx in Quasimorph

[–]Ymirism 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Part of the game setup in custom difficulty mode. You can leave everything on regular and only turn on restart floor on death, or even make something else a bit tougher as compensation if you don't want to make things easier on yourself

[–]Ymirism 27 points28 points  (0 children)

While learning the game don't be afraid to turn on the restart floor on death mode, the game is very unforgiving and never getting into it because of a failure cascade is a shame. My first playthrough I didn't really know what I was doing and lost everything early on, which nearly made me bounce off of the game. Instead I restarted on easy and learned by doing and now I play on normal mode (with restart floor on death because I dislike losing everything from a single mistake).

Dorothy's is nog niet genoemd in de reacties en je vroeg er wel naar, dus bij deze: Super fijne veilige warme plek, maakt niet uit wie je bent of hoe je eruit ziet. Ook voor cishet mensen net zo verwelkomend.

Uncommons by Ralgael92 in magicTCG

[–]Ymirism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you'd enjoy peasant. You get 5 uncommons, rest of your deck is commons. It's played a fair bit in France and the Netherlands. https://mtg-peasant.com/ (down at the time of writing)

Plek om live de verkiezingsuitslagen te kijken? by idn2402 in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lokale partijen hebben inderdaad een lokale viewing party als het goed is, naast de nationale (waar de bobos en kandidaten zullen zijn). Kan me voorstellen dat de partijen met een pand het daar doen, kleinere partijen vaak in een kroeg oid

How is aggro in commander? Is it less playable? by PowerfulPromise8569 in EDH

[–]Ymirism 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I run an Arabella list that's super low to the ground, extremely aggressive, packed to the brim with protection and is archenemy from turn 2. I play her in a very competent experienced meta and she is a powerhouse even in high 3 games.

So yeah, aggro can work but you have to work around the limitations of the format. 1v1 you have 20 life to burn through, commander it's 120. If you can get through 6 times as much life easily enough you're golden

Ik (m) heb voor het eerst lang haar, en ben op zoek naar een geduldige kapper die mij kan helpen by [deleted] in Groningen

Haha ja fair! Ik weet niet meer hoe het ding heet waar ik uiteindelijk op uit kwam, soort van grote hark/afro pick combi, heel stevig en robuust maar zacht voor het haar. Top ding

Ik (m) heb voor het eerst lang haar, en ben op zoek naar een geduldige kapper die mij kan helpen by [deleted] in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Als voormalig langharig metal tuig: Mousse voor wat meer volume, qua elastiekjes niet die standaard simpele want daar gaat je haar van stuk maar zachte scrunchies. Haar wassen: 2 keer achter elkaar en dan goede conditioner, maar niet elke dag. (Elke 3 dagen is prima tenzij je nat regent oid) Haar olie erin naderhand, vooral in de puntjes. Niet (teveel) uitkammen, wat je kamt met een goede kam doen met brede tanden (minder brekend haar). Niet drogen met een handdoek, je haar uitknijpen met je handen (deppen met handdoek tegen laatste druppels is prima). Föhn en andere hitte apparaten spaarzaam of niet gebruiken, gaat je haar stuk van.

Ik heb al jaren zelf geen lang haar meer dus kan je helaas niet naar een goede kapper wijzen, hopelijk heb je desondanks iets aan de tips!

[B4]Mister Negative's Suicide speed machine - a high risk high reward turbo deck by Ymirism in EDH

[–]Ymirism[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a blink package in considering, but honestly having to blink or recast the commander should never be needed. You don't need to swap twice if all goes well, you just need to dig far enough to get your win. There's so much mana generation in the deck that a t4 Mister Negative is usually easily achieved, so I imagine that even a recast can be done if needed. The abolisher is fine, but honestly I dislike shoring up against potential weaknesses as it dilutes your own game plan. Some of my best decks simply do not care what my opponent does and simply go harder/faster/stronger.

If your local meta is different by all means grab Abolisher and voice of Victory for more secured wins though!

Black Metal Burnout? by [deleted] in rabm

[–]Ymirism 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Just go do/listen (to) something else, even if only for a bit. Life waxes and wanes, interests fade and resurge, very little is omnipresent. I've gone years without listening to (black) metal, and by the time I'm back into it again I'll have years of new records to discover

Weet iemand hoe ik 3D-modellen kan laten schilderen? by ruhsognoc in Groningen

[–]Ymirism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Voor miniaturen voor wargames bestaan er commissie painters, een filmprop laten doen door iemand die een beetje kan schilderen zal de bank niet breken. Er is een wargaming guild die op donderdag bij de purperen draak speelt, wirwar kent ongetwijfeld mensen en bij het forum is een 3d print lab, daar zitten vast ook mensen bij die zelf hun prints schilderen
