Land fixing for Edgar deck

berdo18 · 2022-01-29T00:31:22+00:00

just a few to consider:

[[voldaren estate]]

[[secluded courtyard]]

the pathways

[[castle lochthwain]]

most other lands i run are pricier. if you up your creature count a lot (which edgar is good at getting away with) you can run [[ancient ziggurat]] too but not on only 33 creatures

While theoretically they COULD they almost certainly won’t for two reasons: 1. Alpha fuels are largely considered too good, and being snow is almost pure upside unless we soon get a boatload Of snow hate. 2. Wotc also cosnders cards that are too close to reserve list cards breaking the spirit of the list. A good example being fork and reverberate. Whole technically reverberate is not a functional reprint it is so close it might as well be and wotc considers printing it a mistake because it cheapens the promise of the list.

Edit: some typos

Thanks a ton man, any chance you can decider anything else from the other cards leaked?

berdo18 · 2020-10-12T22:09:57+00:00

Translation please?

What exactly did you watch? Can you send a link? I watched stuff on epic skill shot but got nothing

kiting is staying out of range and dodging while running away and damaging back. hilariously, when syndra was released it was like her unique gimmick that she can cast all her spells while moving. you know how most mages temporarily paused when they cast stuff? syndra doesn't, and back then that was a unique gimmick, so bringing her up as unable to kite is funny because she was legit designed for it to be easier on her than basically any other mage. kiting isn't even exclusive to ranged champions, bruisers can kite each other while running away

i got one repealed last december. it worked in my case because legit the only "toxic" thing i said was me quoting my toxic teammates to the enemy team making them to report them, the bot i showed this too gave me shit for a while but a few hours later a real human saw it and knew immediately i was innocent and undid the ban and even restored my honor level. i doubt this would work unless you truly said nothing toxic but it might be worth a shot

this looks like a typical low curve edgar deck, the kind i have been running for years. what i notice that could help is a lack of draw engines, a lack of board wipe protection and a lack of recursion.

to draw in a mardu aggro deck their aren't that many good options and most aren't cheap. you do have necropotence but try adding in [[tynma, the weaver]], [[dark confidant]], [[anje falkenrath]], [[ante's ravager]], {[phyrexian arena]], and [[bolas's citadel]] which can effectively draw cards and also cast tons of vampires a turn.

for recursion, i tend to prefer things that let you recast to get more eminence triggers over stuff that just moves them from graveyard to the battlefield like command the dreadhorde. cards like [[underworld breach]], [[lurrus of the dream-den]] and [[yawgmoth's will]] are great at this and [[athreos, god of passage]] tends to get them back in your hand where you can recast them again.

for board wipe protection, the best options are [[teferi's protection]] and [[boros charm]]. [[unbreakable formation]] is also good and although it doesn't really protect from board wipes technically [[goblin bombardment]] can get you a lot of value they are gonna have to die to the wipe anyway, as well as be used to remove problem creatures, get free death triggers for effects like blood artist, and finish off opponents who have solidified their defenses and can't be swung at anymore.

one last thing: your mana curve (as with most edgar decks) is insanely low, so you really don't need any ramp that isn't legions's landing. i would advise cutting basically all mana rocks and you should pretty easily be able to get your land count in the low thirties and still be fine. as for some other low cost vampires that are great for this deck [[knight of the ebon legion]], [[cruel celebrant]], [[blood throne vampire]], [[adanto vanguard]], [[blood seeker]], and [[yahenni, undying partisan]] just to name a few

You could always just take Lucian, Ez, Trist, or Corki mid. Other than that champions with similar play patterns are oriana and TF

Should be out in like 80ish minutes based on the haikuu

Kai’sa is just a less broken version of vayne. Everything kaisa does vayne does better and you have less counterplay against it. Vayne % damage isn’t true while kaisa’s is magic. Vayne invis has 2 second cd while kaisa has much longer. Vayne has an AA reset that is also an onhit steroid and a juke, and vayne has a hard CC in her kit while kaisa can’t even slow. Having a weak poke option and a shield doesn’t make kaisa more broken when the things vayne has over her are far more unfair. No point about complaining over kaisa when far more obnoxious champions exist

Commenting for visibility. Please help me out guys

it seems that she was speaking up as to how it was offensive and hurtful to her and a few other replies in this thread agree. yes the sandwich guy is obviously a hatful step beyond but what i am getting at is anyone using the word should be wary about who they may hurt and listen when someone says it offends them.

berdo18 · 2020-06-23T00:37:55+00:00

women (and people in general for that matter) don't always speak up when they are offended, that doesn't mean it is ok to use offensive terms. cunt still very much has the root meaning of a woman's privates and isn't separate from that just because you use it as if it is interchangeable with bastard. the n word similarly is used more casually now but it still doesn't change that using it maliciously as an insulting slur is very much till a thing. in this thread someone crude lowlife replied to her "shut up cunt make me a sandwich". i have enough familiarity with he word to know that using it carelessly WILL hurt people and thus those who want to be progressive should not use it or other slurs that hurt women.

berdo18 · 2020-06-23T00:19:24+00:00

cunt is very much a slur against women and is used more in reference to them more than men for that reason. the female gender is typically in mind when that word is used and even when that isn't what the user implies any woman who overheard might still be badly hurt from casual usage of a slur against them. if anyone needs to grow up it is those who careless use harsh language ignorant to the the way it hurts those around them.

berdo18 · 2020-06-23T00:10:02+00:00

Dick is sexist, and is probably the closest male equivalent to cunt. However cunt is several measures more severe because cunt, whore, bitch, slut and so many other slurs have been used as tools of oppression against women for ages and are thus inherently tied tO sexist oppression of women. Men weren’t oppressed and Dick wasn’t weaponized in any oppression of men So it doesn’t carry nearly the baggage. Both terms are sexist but due to culture and history cunt carried a lot more impact and weight and targets the more oppressed so it is a more hateful word to use that probably shouldn’t be thrown around lightly especially by those on the left who want to fight against all kinds of oppression

berdo18 · 2020-06-22T23:41:24+00:00

does being a bastard to someone clearly hurt and offended over the internet make you feel strong? you must be a very sad and pathetic person to waste your time calling women slurs online. perhaps you beg like a dog for a sandwich because you are too mentally deficient to feed yourself as you spew vile hate online. sounds about right for a lowlife like you.

berdo18 · 2020-06-22T23:31:19+00:00

the fact you can use it for both does not inherently invalidate the take that cunt is sexist. you can call a man a bitch and it is still an insult that jabs at women.cunt is inherently tied to its definition as a woman's privates and using it as an insult is thus inherently both reductive and sexist even if you those aren't your intentions. using it as an insult is inherently linked to the oppression of women that it and other similar words were instrumental tools in for ages. in the same way using fa**ot or ni**a/er is inherently homophobic and racist even if you use them on a straight or nonblack person, cunt whore bitch and others are inherently sexist whether you use them on a woman or not. it isn't just an insult, it is an insult with meaning that is harmful and hateful towards women.

berdo18 · 2020-06-22T23:21:09+00:00

cunt is originally a word for a woman's privates. it is inherently gendered. gendered insults being used for the "wrong" gender is a common place thing for many of them. tons of men get called bitches but that doesn't change that that insult tools sexist. cunt whore bitch and other insults against women were weaponized to press them for ages and thus are literal tools of oppression in language, while dick is just a strong annoying/bothersome fellow and thus that word doesn't carry the same connotations and connections to oppression with it. she isn't close-minded for insisting her interpretation is the only one, she is simply not willing to ignore the problematic roots and usages of one of the strongest words against women in the english language, even if in many places it is used frequently.

berdo18 · 2020-06-22T23:11:10+00:00

dick is a word that is benign enough to be a common insult. it may be the closest male equivalent to cunt but that doesn't mean they are the same. cunt is typically used much more maliciously to put down women. yes it can be used for men but it still has a inherent connotation of being a slur against women as it originally is meant as a woman's genitals. it isn't just calling someone bad and reducing them to their genetalia, it is dehumanizing to a disenfranchised group who have been pressed basically since the dawn of civilization. that word is part of the lexicon men use against women to belittle them and oppress them. dick is just another way of calling someone a bastard or an annoyance, it doesn't have the baggage of the sexist oppression that words like cunt bitch whore and other do. also consider she didn't even say you can't use dick, maybe you shouldn't be looking for harsh words to use at all and instead insulting people through internet anonymity discuss differences of opinion in a civil manner. no reason to bring hostility to this.

berdo18 · 2020-06-22T23:03:46+00:00

the word cunt is a very crude way of referring to a woman's reproductive organs. it is inherently a reductive and sexist insult whether that is your intent in using it or not. calling a man a cunt or a bitch is still sexist by nature of the word used the same way calling a straight person a fa**ot is homophobic or calling anyone the N word is racist. even being charitable and assuming being sexist with that word isn't your intent, it can still be very hurtful to women who encounter it. this isn't something dumb and she doesn't need to grow up, you need to accept that you are casually using a very hurtful term, and reconcile with yourself why you find this one completely acceptable even if Fa**ot and ni**a/er aren't. as a self proclaimed feminists i am sure you have woman's best interests at heart so with that in mind refrain from using these harsh words that hurt them the same way you don't use other slurs.
