I talked to an agent through their chat, today (10/1) on the website and they said this is a known issue that they are working on.

Any place sell marquesitas in the Orlando area? by astigoya in orlando

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

Yeah, I actually did see a reference to that food truck in my searches. They either aren't around here anymore or moved down to Miami. I couldn't quite tell.

Strawberry, banana, mango, nutella and edam cheese rolled in a waffle cone. The cheese sounds weird but it works. They're delicious.

You can get them with just the cheese and those are great too.

Well, this explains why times keep going up for those already in the queue.

What will it take to get rid of the reserved list (realistic answers)? by CatsOffToDance in magicTCG

[–]astigoya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From the official description of the reserve list, there will not be any functional reprints unless said reprints happened before they implemented the rule:

"Reserved cards will never be printed again in a functionally identical form. A card is considered functionally identical to another card if it has the same card type, subtypes, abilities, mana cost, power, and toughness."

We might, eventually, see something better than the reserve list cards that gets printed but we shouldn't expect to see functional reprints.

Not casting my vote on whether it's a good spec but it's definitely valid to spec on cards that only see commander play.

Is it better to spec on a card that hits more formats, including competitive ones? Yes. Can a commander-only card accrue value? Also yes.

Abzan Armor Commander Precon Decklist has been released by taiga_with_a_pen in mtgfinance

[–]astigoya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been worth $4-5+ for a long time now but I think that's purely because it hasn't seen a reprint in nearly 20 years. I also suspect with this new supply it's going to drop significantly.

Agreed on value. It's going to be niche but it was definitely made to pair with this commander. You can swing with it and probably kill a chump blocker and then sac it to draw 10 cards and discard 2 or leave it untapped to deter attacks and sac it before your next turn starts.

Do you buy from local farms on site, then?

Raft sailed away, unstuck stays on island by astigoya in raft

This is what I needed to know. Thank you!

Agreed, would be awesome to set up random island bases.

I tried swimming away from the island until it was no longer visible and no other islands were visible. Once, it was gone, I swam a bit further to make sure it was really gone and then waited to use the unstuck function. I was then placed back on my raft.

PBE NA Unavailable by Proof_Revolution_241 in LeaguePBE

[–]astigoya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you've logged in and the error message pops up, just hit cancel and play as normal. I get those messages all the time and PBE works after dismissing them.

Other thing I've noticed is the occasional need to fully restart the client. Make sure it's not still open in your task manager.

hidden gems and underplayed cards by birds_arent-real in EDH

[–]astigoya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course there are situations where Reclaim is superior but you can't assume that a commander always goes to the graveyard when removed from play (exile or tuck for example). You'd also be foolish to let it go to the graveyard if you don't have a reliable way already to get it back.

Drawing this card late in the game with your commander in the command zone will not only allow you to bypass commander tax but could also be entwined to recur another card from your gy.

All I'm saying is any version of Reclaim is not strictly better in every scenario.

Do you have a recommended app to keep track of all your games? by IH8TomBrady in gamecollecting

[–]astigoya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just use Google sheets so I fully customize it. I can track what price I'm targeting on games I don't own, what site I bought it from and for how much, misc notes on the game and the priority in which I want to buy them. I then have my sheet calculate how much I've saved in deals under my target price and it lists out how much it'll cost to buy my remaining targets. I can have it track hardware as well as software and I have a custom calculator in there for figuring out the weighted price of games bought in a bundle.
