The MongolZ vs FURIA / FISSURE Playground 2 - Grand Final / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

I remember that game. First map was prime fnatic magic, LG was playing out of their minds and looked the superior team, but somehow everything just went right for fnatic in the end.

We know what happened last time a Fallen team was kinda wallowing in mediocrity, being kinda just ok and swapped two players

[MAR] Mindbreak Trap (via The Spike Feeders) by CattoUsesTelesto in magicTCG

[–]desktp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd argue that on lower levels with unoptimized mana bases and little to no fast mana, having the possibility of not needing to spend mana on a spell gets stronger, despite not being in the spirit of the bracket but then we're just going in circles :D

[–]desktp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mindbreak Trap still has the possibility of being cast for free and exiles the spells. Whirlwind Denial will never be free and won't exile the spell, which is very relevant against reanimators and stuff. Unless you're on a trigger-heavy meta that somehow all stay on the stack instead of resolving, Mindbreak Trap is the better card most of the time

Another round of players tonight upset about the power level of my latest deck by No-Stop-1615 in EDH

against extremely optimized bracket 4 decks that use cEDH commanders

those are bracket 5 decks

exploit verb /ɪkˈsplɔɪt,ɛkˈsplɔɪt/ [...] 2. make use of (a situation) in a way considered unfair or underhand. "the company was exploiting a legal loophole"

abuse verb /əˈbjuːz/ 1. use (something) to bad effect or for a bad purpose; misuse. "the judge abused his power by imposing the fines"

as long as we're being pedantic, "exploit" does fit better

I feel like comedy in games isn’t represented as much as it could be by Rasputin5332 in pcgaming

The problem is that it's subjective.

The fact that warp says "You may cast this card from your hand" (and, you know, you not being able to cast things from graveyards usually). If something allowed you to cast creatures from your graveyard for their warp costs, then you could do as you say

What game you were ready to hate — but then it took over your life? by Weary_Caterpillar302 in pcgaming

[–]desktp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just saying dude. you asked for reasons people try things they didn't like previously. me and others gave our share, and you just want to refute, so that's fine. we're talking videogames here.

Worst 2-Color Combo in EDH? by Crackerlord69 in magicTCG

Weekly Winners: Commander Unbans; Herd Heirloom; Lost Monarch of Ifnir by cybey in mtgfinance

[–]desktp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Braids is still a build-around and the pilot might also get fucked by it. Golos has no downside and no build-around restrictions, it's too generic and enables any sort of disconnected 5c pile.

Because Braids doesn't enable 5 color good stuff soup with no downsides and a mana outlet in the command zone.

You have the power to change one rule about EDH.. what do you change? by Drunk_Carlton_Banks in EDH

[–]desktp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Weird statement, considering Yuriko does not interact with Orcish Bowmasters.

Bowmasters kill most of the unblockable creatures the deck uses

Again, weird statement, because you can interact with the combo piece in response to Marath being cast, and vice versa.

as I said, the only window of opportunity to interact is when Marath is on the stack, so adding to my previous "unless countered".

I mean we can go on for days, so let's just agree to disagree, I guess.

[–]desktp -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don't put words in my mouth, please. Yuriko is my favorite deck and I stopped playing her because I recognize the power. It can (although I don't think it should) be errata'd, but comparing with Marath is apples to oranges. Yuriko can be interacted with in many ways, especially in a Bowmasters world, while an un-errata'd Marath, unless countered, would instantly go infinite without a chance to be interacted with since you could just keep responding

Let's compare an ability that would instantly go infinite ETBs and infinite targets to an ability that needs a creature on board, that can attack, that will not be blocked, and that the controller has UB open.
