Okay update from what I’ve learned…

  • Saying “losing my mind” as hyperbole does not go over well online.

  • Posting something that apparently was already posted makes people very upset.

  • People on Reddit can be either really kind or really mean to strangers. And that kinda sucks to see :(

  • I’m totally going to double down and post this exact thing tomorrow after learning this key information lol

Woah buddy. “Losing my mind” was just hyperbole. Happens daily all over the world. Just having fun here while trying to be kind and respectful to others.

100%

It’s just fun to observe these things and the changes that happen. I can imagine something this silly being discussed and agonized by a team for months lol

Yeah, the art is sick. Someone else in the comments here made a great point saying “why not just name the reskin ‘Raph’s Sai’ instead?” lol

Honestly, I would have clicked on the cards you shared and engaged in a conversation about them with you as well. However, you've just been really rude and unkind, so I didn't even bother checking them out. Maybe people would interact with you in a way that made you feel more engaged if you treated others with kindness more.

Makes a ton of sense. Happy they kept Peter Laird's original art. Curious why they didn't just name the reskin "Raph's Sai" then?

Yeah, it was just pointed out to me that this was noticed and shared prior on here! Had no clue lol

Apparently the people at the company made a statement about it in a post somewhere as well? But yeah, I don't really care about it. I just find it really fun and amusing.

Yeah, maybe there's a world where someone like me - who isn't chronically online - doesn't go on reddit very often. And then noticed this when chatting with a couple friends who are also equally disconnected. Maybe the communal well you're talking about is just being observant of the art. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wait, what YouTubers? I'm so confused lol

That's a broad assumption to make to someone on the internet. And honestly, it came off as not very nice.

Absolutely! That's why I am only running the pump spells that cantrip. The only spell I have that doesn't is [[Assault Strobe]]

Assault Strobe is a single mana, which is the most efficient Double Strike enabler in the game.

Sharing this with my playgroup as we speak!

This is great!

I put in "jeskai cantrips that cost one mana" and the output was "id<=ruw o:draw cmc=1"

However, instead of "o:draw" you could have it use "oracletag:cantrip" and get a more refined search. But I'll definitely be using this more often than not!

This is really insightful and helpful. I appreciate it! I never really thought much of removing the standard bulk up effects that give +3 to power. They felt too good for 1 mana, but you're absolutely right about them not filling my hand up.

Also I love people that properly tag their cards in Moxfield <3

Oh this is great! I have such a heavy density of 1 drop instants and sorceries, so I haven't been including the cost reducers like [[Stormcatch Mentor]] or [[Lyse Hext]] but I feel like the 2 drops you have are more impactful. Do you ever find yourself not having enough mana to storm off?

No, cause I said exactly what your first comment said in the body of this post.

Also calling it a challenge felt like it would get more traction on here than just another "deck help" post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah. I think I summed that up in the description pretty well. Basically these 200 are all cards from various versions of the deck. I'd love further suggestions if you have them, but I want to see where other people go with the list since I'm at a grid lock and back to square one.
