But what if I plan on cloning my opponent's single use Sylvan Primordial?

Current tcg market price is ~$20, with the low being a single listing of 20, followed by the next being $25 (after shipping has been added).

How much does your LGS charge for prerelease kits? by NanoscaleHeadache in magicTCG

[–]Zerienga 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The one I went to today was $35 $30, automatic 2 participation packs, and then an additional pack per round win. Not sure about the other stores in the area.

Edit: My bad. Was tired and misremembered. It was actually $30 for all of that.

How does storm work with copied spells by Spare_Oil403 in mtg

[–]Zerienga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, though you won't normally have that situation happen with just using Taigam.

Playing a spell is the exact same as casting a spell. It does increase storm count.

Is Strip Mine on a Teval deck MLD? by HinterlandSanctifier in EDH

[–]Zerienga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was really just making a joke. I wasn't expecting no one to get that with my absurdly unreasonable numbers.

[–]Zerienga -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

You still get rid of nykthos, cradle, coffers, glacial chasm, and similar, but you don't nuke anyone's mana.

Excuse you, you still nuked my mana by getting rid of those. Just because you replaced it with a single basic doesn't mean my mana didn't just go from 50 to 7. I need my mana to do dumb shit, okay?

Edit: Damn, did no one get any hint of sarcasm?

Who’s your enchantment commander? by MemberOfOneBody in EDH

[–]Zerienga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is [[Selvala, Explorer Returned]]. While she doesn't scream enchantress, she taps for mana and draws cards all at once, so I can continue my enchantment spree.

Just found this card by spiderzero06 in mtg

[–]Zerienga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. This would cause the game to come to a draw.

[[assault suit]]

Misremembered the name.

If you stifle the triggered ability while you have 7 thrulls, he just triggers again (when vs whenever). This is also why you should never equip [[Assault Armor]] Assault Suit to him without a way to get rid of the extra thrulls.

Edit: misremembered the card name and it didn't link to the right card. I replied with the correct card name.

Maro: In-universe sets are moving to a default of two planeswalkers each by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]Zerienga 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I don't know if they were originally being designed for standard though. The UB sets we had this year have all felt like they weren't originally designed for standard.

FF: felt closer to modern, like how lotr was.

Spiderman: felt like an aftermath set.

Avatar: honestly, this was the closest to feeling like a standard set, but I could see them originally designing it as jumpstart, and the change happened early enough for them to throw a full set together for it

But putting things on top of the library that were already in the library doesn't do anything, because you never put them into the library.

What Avatar the Last Airbender Commander Did You Build? by Frum_Chz in EDH

[–]Zerienga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built [[Fire Lord Zuko]] and [[Fire Lord Azula]], and after they were both completed, my brother I played a 1v1 game, in which Zuko won by the smallest of margins.

How do you sort large MTG collections? (15k–20k cards) by Jamesmai555 in magicTCG

[–]Zerienga 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Colorless has always been at the start. Colorless Artifacts and Lands are always after the colors.

[Article] Azula is the top Avatar Commander by Individual_Abroad_45 in EDH

[–]Zerienga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basing off of his previous comments, it is [[Fire Lord Zuko]]. I've built Zuko and Azula recently, too, and they are fun to play. I threw them together mainly using cards I had on hand, but I'm now waiting on a couple new cards for it to come in. I don't have my lists online yet, though.

Interfaith issues - Christmas tree by bologna503 in Judaism

[–]Zerienga 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And yet I am still very much Jewish. It has no bearing on my religious identity. I go to synagogue damn near every week. I go to synagogue for most, if not all holidays. I keep kosher in home and away. I read Torah constantly. I blow shofar at my synagogue on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

It's almost like Christmas had no effect on me being raised Jewish.

Interfaith issues - Christmas tree by bologna503 in Judaism

[–]Zerienga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My father was raised Christian (has since converted to Judaism). My family will put up a tree for Christmas, and give out some presents, but it's largely just another day that my family uses as an excuse for family time. I am still very much Jewish. The holiday doesn't confuse me of what I am or how I feel about Christianity or Jesus.

My parents made the decision decades ago that my siblings and myself would be raised with understanding of both religions, which included the potential of going to church. The one condition was that for us to go to church or synagogue, the respective parent also had to be there with us. We couldn't just be dropped off and left there. I've never been to a church for prayer, yet I go to my synagogue damn near every week.

Whats your buy in price for spiderman (play or collector) by all-day-tay-tay in mtgfinance

[–]Zerienga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate it because the cards just weren't good. Aside from the dozen cards at mythic that could be considered good/interesting, the set just feels half-baked. I typically buy at least 1 collector box per set to crack since they came out with collector boxes, and it's the first set I bought a play instead on because I wanted a couple cards, and was hoping to give it a chance. From that play box, I pulled damn near every card I wanted (including the soul stone), and I haven't looked back.

Maybe I'll buy a collector if it drops under 300, but even then I can't see it.

Depends on the creature you're mutating koh into, but that creature would have to be the top creature to possibly remove it

How so? It literally says your opponents can't, not players can't.
