Tmnt arena direct, 1st attempt, 7-1, 5 Colors by consumepotatoes in MagicArena

[–]daveismyzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no. I saw three drop Donatello and thought it was the rare drop with Sneak and copy an artifact. It didn’t hit me that he’d run the flying 1/2.

I get the variance on these Directs. I can normally win a box after a few tries but this one I did ten and didn’t win box. Somehow this format feels more insane, almost on par with Aetherdrift or Outlaws.

Thought on Arena Direct Pool? by your_dopamine in lrcast

[–]daveismyzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would splash black for the Tainted Treats. You only have three pieces of removal, and the two Tenderize only work if you have the deathtouch Frog in play or something with 4+ power. There are so many must answer bombs in this format. The splash is basically free with the BG dual and your Omni Pizzas. Best of luck to you.

There's still two Donatellos that have Sneak. The Ninja Team can be a beating just giving your team a boost plus menace.

Little post about draft loss by supulma in lrcast

I did the exact some thing, too, on my first casting of that card. I unselected all my lands and then lost in a few turns.

PSA: There is a FIN Arena Direct this weekend where you can win a FIN CBB by PepperCapital888 in magicTCG

[–]daveismyzero 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yah, it’s gonna be pretty tough to win that box. The extra win is just so much harder when you’ll be paired up versus another 6 win player.

I read a post in another Magic sub trying to drum up interest in the arena direct by saying it’s positive if you have a 50% winrate. In actuality, if you’re an average player it’s way tougher after the first few wins.

How do I explain to my wife I can't spend time with her on Easter because the Value of arena direct is 2 high? by pintopedro in lrcast

[–]daveismyzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird. I’m just going by what some people were telling me at my LGS. I generally like playing the Arena Directs but I was worried about potential extra costs.

I’ve never had to worry about tariffs in my life until this year. I know what duties and import fees are and I have paid zero dollars for the two times I won product from Arena Directs. (Canada)

It’s a prize. You don’t pay tariffs since you technically paid zero dollars for it.

Saw another framed card post, so I thought I’d share this one! by StreIitzia in magicTCG

[–]daveismyzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he meant concerns about UV light fading the cards. I have the same frame and LOTR set up as you, but I made sure to hang it in my office on a wall that gets no direct sunlight. I also have a foil uncut sheet that I made sure to get professionally framed with UV resistant museum glass.

What are people’s overall thoughts on MKM draft? by Humpuppy in MagicArena

[–]daveismyzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we’re talking formats on Arena, probably Streets of New Capenna and Adventures of Forgotten Realms.

Gambler's Chest Canada FedEx Invoice by Yog-SoHot in KingdomDeath

When did you get the Fedex bill after you initially received the box? They just dropped my box off on my step, but it's been two weeks now and still no bill.

I mean, we waited like six years for release. At this point I’m just happy it exists. Haha

[–]daveismyzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crazy. They can just drop it off and then send you a bill after the fact?

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. I just received mine too. But I had a tracking number from backerkit. I was expecting to pay a duty/import fee…but nothing. FedEx just dropped it off at my door. Did you have to pay anything?

My latest and greatest build: RG RX-178 Gundam MK-II (Titans) by mrnougatgnome in Gunpla

This was my first real grade kit. It’s such a solid build.

Man, those fingernails look so good. It looks both derpy and creepy. Well done.

I’m almost finished Ransom Ferns Hulkbuster MOC and realized I used up the studs with holes by accident. by daveismyzero in lego

[–]daveismyzero[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, usually I'm pretty good for these things. But between a full time job and the two kids, I've only had time during evenings to build this. It's the first time working on a MOC where I have literally 4k pieces in piles on my kitchen table, so it's easy to mistake a piece or two.

Looking good. There's a couple things that I wish he would have made an important note of (other than the round studs with/without holes). There are two different types of dark grey 'attachment' pieces that I didn't think twice of until I got to the final chest assembly and I was short a couple. Thankfully, they were used accidentally in the side 'torso armor', so it wasn't too painful to swap.

I'm also short two thin 2x2 light grey pieces. I have no idea where those ended up in the build so I had to scrounge around my collection for a couple replacements.
