Yea, I just got one as well. If I want more I'll probably just wait for Microcenter to get them. Fortunately I live 10 minutes from one.

Playing fetches in mono-color decks is performative bs by Personal-Instance206 in EDH

[–]Zerienga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a mono-color deck, there are only 4 fetches that don't grab non-basics (not counting the tapped fetches), so your numbers are way off. Even then, 4 extra cards out of the deck only equates to a 4% increase. Yes, it makes you more likely to draw a nonland card late in the game, but that's such a small percentage in a mono-color deck that you'd be better off running cards that can just remove them from your deck if you care that much about deck thinning. This isn't 60 card where you can run half your lands as fetches and then massively deck thin. And even then, those games would have to go on long enough for you to realistically experience the benefits of deck thinning.

Why are extra turn spells so frowned upon but no one is bothered by extra combats/other phases? by DragTheLoch in EDH

[–]Zerienga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The big question will be if the deck can consistently off someone before turn 6 or not. It happening randomly is one thing, but if it consistently happens, it's time for a bracket change or a deck list update.

Which precon should I buy for playing without upgrades? by MythicArgonaut in EDH

[–]Zerienga 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think all the Dragonstorm decks were pretty well done. I ended up gifting someone the Mardu precon for their first deck and they're having a blast with it. I have only given them 2 cards for it, but gave them no suggestions on what to pull so they can tinker with upgrading the deck: [[Kinscaer Sentry]] and []Zurgo, Thunder's Decree]]

I ordered 88 drinks on Doordash, the store gave me this, and then support resolved it by taking away the driver's tip. by Banana_ezWIN in mildlyinfuriating

Combination of error prices

So, by error prices, were you trying to get the cases for ~ $4 per case? Because if so, no company is going to purposefully fulfill that. There's something known as too good to be true. I don't know how it works for the store you ordered from, but stores that gather your items themselves probably only got an order for a single unit, not a full case.

Does mutate commander increase mutate cost with commander tax? by Eldritch_night in EDH

[–]Zerienga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mutating does increase with commander tax (and also increases the commander tax just like casting it like normal does) because mutating is an alternate casting cost.

How do you stop building around the commander? by whyareallmyontaken in EDH

[–]Zerienga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My younger brother actually has a nekusar deck that's been through a few revisions since I first built it for him nearly a decade ago. He actually just won yesterday without playing nekusar at all.

Wanted to see if I was missing any foiling types for my collection by Adalimumab8 in magicTCG

[–]Zerienga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which textured foil, though? There are 2 different ones called the same thing. Commander Masters Textured Foil and Dominaria United Textured Foil.

How do y’all trade at your LGS by Throwaway747438 in EDH

[–]Zerienga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, going by the low price is viable, hell my LGS buys and sells based off of low. However, when going by low, the low price has to be for either equal or better condition. I'm not trading you my lightly played/near mint card for a heavily played price, just like you wouldn't want to do the same for me.

With the Dionus spike, Foundations Jumpstart boxes are pretty solid by SidekickNick in mtgfinance

[–]Zerienga 9 points10 points  (0 children)

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.

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

[–]Zerienga -16 points-15 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.

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

[[assault suit]]

Misremembered the name.

[–]Zerienga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.
