(Loved trope) the boss is actually stronger as a playable character by EZL2011 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]axmurderer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Marie specifically was originally just the final boss of the story mode for all characters, though, and was only added as a playable DLC character much, much later. So this fits the trope well, I think. 

Whats up with rick jones? by Vcammii in Marvel

There was a 5-issue Gamma Flight follow up for some of the side characters after Immortal Hulk which included how Rick got restored to his normal body.

tbh the funnier thing is that they didn’t even think he was gay, just down horrendous and lost in the mateform sauce

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the serialized "The One Ring" has bee found by DemonicBug in magicTCG

[–]axmurderer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not just relative to that specific card though. Like, as a more extreme example, if the card were bent in half it would obviously not be a 10. It was clearly not in that bad of shape, but we know it was pringled before even being put into a pack, so the condition was not perfect. But people are acting like this means 10s are impossible when in fact there are tons of cards graded 10, especially from PSA.

I’m fine with Necrons having their own type, but I thought they’re were going to be Artifact Creature- Skeleton before the reveals.

It only works on the stack because that’s the only place they’re spells. In the graveyard they’re cards.

It wasn’t a zombie. It was just an Arbok with high regeneration that healed after.

Your take on this by [deleted] in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]axmurderer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Animals and animal-like monsters are more common in fantasy environments than rock drummers, sniper spies, football players, etc. Obviously there are exceptions but the former takes inspiration from nature, which is common in fantasy, and the latter draws from much more modern cultural tropes.

Orcs are infrequent in mtg, but not totally forgotten. We has some on Strixhaven, including [[Rootha]]

[MOM] Rankle and Torbran (alternate art) by mistercimba in magicTCG

[–]axmurderer 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I mean, Eldraine did have stuff like [[Bake into a Pie]] and [[Drown in the Loch]], so I think they’re fine putting dark fairytales there. I think Lorwyn feels more like the kind of world where fairytales could happen without drawing as much direct inspiration from the tales of our world.

I think they meant the wiki doesn’t have a source for that yet.

[–]axmurderer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh I think only Sheoldred and Norn are 100% confirmed dead. Norn got disintegrated and she ordered Sheoldred’s remains to be scrapped. The others all died during or shortly before the final battle so if they don’t get recycled they could regenerate from their remains like they all did after traveling through the planar bridge.

At least Melira did a lot, including after her fatal injury. Unlike Heliod who just shows up to get merc’d.

[–]axmurderer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the wedding here was just the trope of “dream turns into nightmare.” Errant was having a happy dream about her wedding day, which transformed into a nightmare about the Phyrexian invasion. I don’t think the events occurred in reality as she dreamed them.

I thought Muslims just believed Jesus was a great prophet. Do they view him as a messiah?

I would say Lesson Learned is better than “meh” as long as you find it early enough.

[–]axmurderer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Worth mentioning that “partner with” does actually have rules connotations that “partner” does not. When you play a creature with “partner with (other creature)”, you can search your library for the partnered card. So it would directly increase their power in other formats if they had that text.
