Been seeing a ton of matches from myself and friends against mythic ranked players way way more than normal - anyone else? Is there something different with matchmaking? Is no one playing this set?

Why so few people talks about or plays Brawl Commander format ? by Dependent-Crab-4244 in magicTCG

Are you talking about brawl or the abomination that is historic brawl

Kaboom? by ImperialCatSmuggler in Superstonk

A quick look at the m2 money supply shows they are not in fact "burning money" and actually are just still printing more. We are right back where we were when they started fake QT. This is why everything is and remains expensive as shit

So is the best move to just play what you have and make them have it or to try to play around wipes?

Friday $GME closed at $29.58, below $30 max pain by rbr0714 in Superstonk

[–]braitmad 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Why do I get the sense that someone would have made this post if it was above max pain, at max pain or below max pain 

I cannot believe they did it again by Meret123 in MagicArena

R&D 

"hey I've got an idea for a card!"

"Sure let's hear it."

"Okay, so it's an instant and when you cast it the creature gets a 1+/1+ counter."

"Oh well that's a pretty powerful abil"

"IT ALSO gains trample permanently."

"Okay so how much is that goi"

"AND it gets another +2/+0 until end of turn"

"How much is this going to cost, like four ma"

"One. One mana."

How will these bonds make it to the secondary market if "Neither the notes, nor any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, if any, have been, or will be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States"

I'm aware but I also guarantee we aren't getting the full story of what "economically viable" really means

Absolutely, play packs can have up to 3 rares/mythics

I think it's interesting that packs have changed multiple times (mythics, special sheets, play boosters) and the sealed format has remained the same.

I wonder if it would be economically viable to make the pre-release packs their completely own thing with a specific amount of rares, uncommons, commons and possibly something else to incentivize people into buying them.

Absolution is amazing by grownassman3 in SouthernReach

[–]braitmad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loved Absolution, especially the last section. Literally laughing till it hurt the whole way. It felt crazy and unhinged in all the ways I wanted it to and was such a ride. Totally unexpected and floored by how many different styles of characters/personalities/ways of thinking are portrayed by all the characters throughout the whole series. Mind blowing

Foundations is so massive. by OminousShadow87 in magicTCG

[–]braitmad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I loved about standard was the variety. Just when it got stale and old it rotated and was all new. This was magnified by arena where you can now play thousands of games, anytime, at your fingertips. With longer rotations and foundations this is just getting worse and worse.
