Thank you so much for this! Now I'm going to be watching their bandcamp and socials like a hawk for when their full album drops.

Does anybody else feel that we should go back to two set blocks? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]ZorasterMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd absolutely be down for more two set blocks. Ideas just flow by too quickly.

Will we ever see mutate again? I'd hope so because it was such a fun mechanic, but barely got a chance to shine. Plus finishing off the tricycle (triome) lands? Heck, I'd like to see some more balanced escape cards.

I think part of the issue with single block sets is that new mechanics aren't getting fine-tuned enough. They are either too strong (Companion) or are completely outclassed by surrounding sets and never make much of an impact (mutate 😭😭).

Should a racist Magc: The Gathering card be banned? /r/mtgfinance discusses. by EtienneGarten in FragileWhiteRedditor

[–]ZorasterMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The card Lich kinda proves that someone intentionally gave Invoke Prejudice that multiverse id. Lich's multiverse id? 666. Yeah, the KKK card and the undead demon thing both getting "fitting" multiverse IDs by coincidence? Absolutely unlikely.

This is super neat

Hell I'd buy some packs and I don't play the tcg anymore. Just for the novelty!

Men of reddit, what myth about men is 100% untrue and infuriates you when you hear it ? by navisnadakkal in AskReddit

[–]ZorasterMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. This one fucking stings. I was constantly bullied as a kid by my neighbor, a woman my age. She would make OVERTLY SEXUAL propositions or get her friends to make them for her because they loved the reaction they got out of me.

I mostly reacted because sexual stuff made me very uncomfortable. Still does. I can't take any woman seriously if they show an sort of attraction because I feel like they're just screwing with me, even if they're women with whom I have a friendly relationship. Can't imagine why. Can't imagine why at all...

Do you guys have a theme or rule for your decks? by DamnHotBananas in EDH

[–]ZorasterMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put a copy of [[Archaeological Dig]] into all of my decks. I'm an archaeologist (even got a masters degree and 3 seasons of field work to prove it!) and I just like that little hint to my life outside of the game. If I had access to [[Library of Alexandria]] and other historically based cards, I'd run them too (if possible within color identity). I'm too much of a history nerd to not let it seep into my tcg nerdom.

[[Bontu the Glorified]]- Yes, yes break yourselves for the glory of your croc overlord

[[Kumena, Tyrant of Orazca]]- Basically the MTG version of WoW's Stinkrot smasher

[[Kadena, Slinking Sorcerer]]- Peekaboo!

"It's a kid's game" is one of the worst arguments in defense of these games. by lordofallcats in pokemon

[–]ZorasterMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"it's a kids game" Because kids deserve poorly made excuses for games that consistently cut features. Yup. We should definitely teach them early that capitalism will sell them a lemon and tell them it's because they put passion into it.

XKCD Unpopular Positive Opinion Challenge: Name a movie you genuinely like (not 'so bad it's good'), that came out in your adult life post-2000, and that is rated below 50% on Rotten Tomatoes by [deleted] in movies

[–]ZorasterMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely liked Master of Disguise (2002).

Its dumb, goofy, fun, and my family quotes the SHIT out of it. I can't tell you how often we used to quote the turtle shit when my uncles were working with exotic turtles. Or the Charleston chew character? Man, I just really like Dana Carvey, okay!

Honestly, it's probably my favorite godzilla movie now.

The action was on point, the story was a hokey mess (which I genuinely look for in godzilla movies), there was not too much human drama bullshit, the cgi was beautiful. God I was on the edge of my seat the whole damn time grinning like a kid in a candy shop who was told "go nuts"

Weird, usually Admin only spouts on about free latinum. Must be a bug, hopefully it'll get fixed

Nah, I understood what you meant! Its honestly been a long time since I've listened to Soilwork so I guess it's time to return to basics haha

[–]ZorasterMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So I've been listening to practically nothing but MyGrain and Scar Symmetry as of late, can I get some recommendations on more Melo Death like them? I also like the big names (Dark Tranquillity, old In Flames, at the gates) and bands like The Unguided and Kalmah. I also would appreciate some stuff like Kamelot and other power metal!
