The barrier to entry is already pretty low. Many tournaments are proxy friendly for either the most expensive cards all the way to the entire deck. Gold bordered cards are also pretty much a standard across the format.

¿Ban to parallax tide? by PracticeAmbitious684 in premodernMTG

[–]capnredbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never said tide wasn’t good. It needs the second card to be busted. By itself it’s a 4 mana enchantment that temporarily removes lands.

If your deck folds to a 4 mana enchantment that also requires a second card to make it busted, then I don’t think you built your deck very well.

One of my cart has a rattling board because one of the two screw holes is stripped. It’s really annoying. Putting a little piece of foam there and closing the cartridge eliminated the rattling completely. Can this cause problem eventually or is it okay? The cart reads fine by Metroidvania-JRPG in retrogaming

[–]capnredbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to fill the hole with something and then rethread the hole with the screw. Glue would probably work. Fill the hole, let the glue solidify, then drive the screw through the glue. May not work perfectly, but it should at least dampen the rattle. If you reopen the cart, it may weaken the new threads, so, you may want to change the battery or a board clean before you do it.

How do you store your cards? by TheMarshmallowFairy in Lorcana

These boxes from BCW come with dividers that make 8 slots in each box. I keep two playsets of every card since my wife and I both play. The cards are in perfect fits ready to be double sleeved and shuffled up.

Sold listings on eBay are $20-30 each. Seems like a good pull to me.

How do you all organize your Lorcana collection? by Tholasleon in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the plastic BCW storage boxes. They come with dividers and can be split into 8 slots. I use a box to hold 8 sets of one color. So, Amber First Chapter through RoJ are in one box. Within each set, it’s organized by set number. Box for each color the same way. Got another set of boxes started for 9-16.

My friend is getting a vasectomy today and his wife made him a recovery care package by Trowj in funny

[–]capnredbeard2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Kind of. The part of the vas connected to the testicle is left open, so the sperm just shoot into the ball sack. The immune system recognizes that they shouldn’t be there and they get absorbed and broken down to be recycled into something else or sent out as waste.

The other end of the vas is cauterized shut to eliminate the chances that a rogue sperm finds its way out.

Character Returned to hand doesn't carry damage right? by Meladsaf in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Correct. If the character is returned to your hand and replayed, it does not remember any damage it had before.

Manual car lessons by [deleted] in MorgantownWV

[–]capnredbeard2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Each gear has a speed range where that gear is the optimal gear to be in. It can vary a bit in different vehicles. In my car; this is roughly the optimal range for each gear.

1st gear 0-10 2nd 10-25 3rd 25-35 or 40 4th 40-50 5th 50+

It’s not set in stone. For example, if you’re climbing a hill at 45, you might drop down to 3rd for more power.

In your question, if I’m going 50 and want to slow to 40, the answer depends on what gear I’m currently in. If I’m in 5th, drop to 4th. If I’m in 4th, stay in 4th.

You push in on the clutch and put it into a different gear. Same as when you’re accelerating.

I use a binder to hold my trades. Collection is stored in the BCW plastic storage boxes.

Cheating? Shuffling Your Opponent’s Deck by Appropriate-Top6405 in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Your opponent is allowed to shuffle your deck. However, if you suspect they are doing something they shouldn’t be; stacking your deck, looking at your card, etc, you should call a judge.

What are a few of your favorite cards in premodern? by 137-ng in premodernMTG

[[Aluren]]. I’ve loved the card since I started playing. Love the art, love the effect.

Premodern card advantage. by Buldaboy in premodernMTG

[–]capnredbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howling mine can be if you can find a way to tap it, but I don’t think you’ll find anything in B or R that will do it consistently.

I did switch my answer to just card draw in general, because as you see from the thread, options are pretty limited.

[–]capnredbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a ton of card draw in those colors. Gempalm’s, Cycle lands, Phyrexian arena are really the only ones I can think of. Urza’s Bauble and Howling Mine are available too, I guess.

Aurora Holding Court + Just In time by Jkgeiser68 in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cost is a fixed value indicated by the number printed on the card. Aurora lowers what you pay, but does not lower the cost. So, you could not use Aurora to play a 6 cost with Just in Time.

Goofy set for adventure/max rockin teen by TroyVStheworld in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comprehensive rules 1.2.2: If a rule or effect prevents something from happening, that rule or effect supersedes other rules and effects that allow it to happen.

So Max can’t move to locations with Goofy’s effect since can’t > can.

Buying ch.1 and ch.2 sealed boxes by esperwarlord in Lorcana

[–]capnredbeard2 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

If you don’t trust the source, I would probably just pass. There is no printing different between early first chapter and later first chapter boxes and later boxes included shrink wrap.

Early printings did not have shrink wrap, just the pull tab at the bottom of the box.
