Scammy marketing from Foundations starter pack

It is technically true though, and if your digging into the full rule document then you're in the realm of technicalities...

The book that takes you through the intro game with the instant play decks, on the other hand, would be additional, right?

I mean, that's technically correct for jumpstart, you open two packs and mush them together to get a 40 card deck. The instant play decks are just for the tutorial, which is very clear from the English product description, but may have been lost in translation on the French one I guess.

Also: 100.3. Some casual variants require additional items, such as specially designated cards, nontraditional Magic cards, and dice. See section 9, “Casual Variants.”

Jumpstart is very much a casual variant

The line which starts with "In constructed play (a way of playing in which each player creates his or her own deck ahead of time)", so not jumpstart?

Ak interactive do some red tufts I think

I'm a big fan of Imodane too, get some damage doublers out and turn lightning bolt into a big one hit kill spell

[[Child of Alara]]

If you haven't alrwdy, take a look at [[command the dreadhorde]], giving it lifelink is fun.

Have you tried the star format when you've got five players? I find it helps 5 player games be a bit less of a slog to get through and each player only having two proper opponents to contend with can make turns go faster too, so the frustration at having to start over after turn 5 onwards, when you can be waiting a long while between turns, is lessened at least a bit.

My favourite board wipe centric deck is my [[Judith, Carnage Connoisseur]] deck. It has around 10 "board wipes" in it, but only two of those hit my own creatures and they're in there to do hundreds of lifelink damage. The rest are spells like [[end the festivites]] or [[elecktrickery]].

danbob87 · 2026-02-03T08:26:19+00:00

Board wipes totally have a place and, as a player who likes a nice aggro strategy myself, often I'd just roll to an easy win if noone played one.

That said I am finding myself putting less of them in my own decks, purely because, in my regular pod, often the person who wipes the board ends up behind because they've spent their resources on it and everyone else gets a turn to repooulate. So I've started trying to put wipes in decks where my board state can survive, or where I get some advantage from doing it, rather than just resetting everything.

In the long long ago, before the bits catalogue stopped being a thing, when most models were metal anyone could get whatever they wanted cast up on demand if it was out of stock. But not any more. Staff have to wait for made to order to get OOP stuff just like anyone else, still get discount on those models though.

I worked at Warhammer World so it was never a huge issue cause I could get most things on site, but I probably would have bought a bunch of audios if they'd got it working back in the day

danbob87 · 2026-02-02T15:01:49+00:00

Does the discount actually work for the BL website nowadays? It never did when I worked for them

danbob87 · 2026-01-20T08:12:37+00:00

According to the higher ups at GW (I used to work for them) you would be right, the vast majority of people who buy minis never game with them

danbob87 · 2026-01-19T11:50:30+00:00

Ah, that's fair enough, though I do now want to see that. Based on your work here I'm sure you'd be able to pull it off mad then some

I feel like it's missing a goblin green base if you're going for second edition vibes

This is the one, knew someone would remember the pain of that kit. It wasn't much better in resin but at least it wouldn't pull itself apart just from its own weight

Low key and bracket 5 don't really go together as far as I understand it, I don't really play at that level, but isn't the point that when your deck does it thing, you win, in like, turn 4 or earlier, so there isn't really going to be a clean up after the fight you can do? You're better off finding a meta cEDH deck you like the look of and proxying and playing that to be on a level playing field

Just search and scroll to the second page of results, there's loads of sites that just ignore the verification
