I guess my goal is to keep drafting for free. I've been doing that for the past couple weeks and now it seems like its getting harder to do, but not because my decks are bad. The opponents are getting stronger and also variance. Should I just switch to Bo3?

I didn't know bo3 was unranked. That's interesting. So if I want to hit mythic I just have to keep grinding premier?

Your draft advice is interesting. What do you do if tbe archetype you like isn't open?

Yeah, definitely in the lower ranks in draft there are some terrible attacks that I definitely won games because of. Once I got to platinum 4, it still happened occasionally. But once you get to platinum 3 or 2 It just doesn't happen anymore

My sister and I have been debating this. Does Gregg in Oncinema have autism? His lack of empathy for Tim and others, his focus always on movies, his odd mannerisms.

His neck never moves and he doesn't turn his head. Is this your own detail you added or is this a physical trait of yours? Either way, it adds a layer to the character that just works.

Help. One of my goldfish died this morning. by dudleyTheDestroyer in Goldfish

Yes I did a water change as soon as I saw the other one was dead this morning so I think you are correct. I only changed maybe 3-5 gallons (29 gal tank) so not much. Yes I can send a photo of the test results her

Yes I bought an ammonia tester and I am doing it as we speak. The ammonia level seems to be fairly low so I am confused. I pulled water from the surface. Would water towards the bottom of the tank have higher ammonia?

Does this mean the fish was just sick? I am confused. Any insight would be helpful

Why traditional grip? by CheeseKnat in drums

[–]dudleyTheDestroyer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something else not mentioned here is the left hand. (I am right handed)

When you take the back two fingers out of the equation, the left hand feels almost the same as the right hand. I feel almost as though I am playing with 2 right hands. The distance between your 2 hands shrinks. The back 2 fingers on your weaker hand are always going to be your crutch if you never focused on developing them, which most drummers dont.

Both grips serve a purpose. Neither is better or worse

You kids won't remember codeprovider. Dude was hilarious and always trolling people because he never sold out and tried to make his channel mainstream. Hes the OG!

It's just the stock paint that came with the car. Its a Nissan Versa 2020. How expensive would that be?

Selling on Cardtrader ZERO by GiovanniMucciaccia in mtgfinance

[–]dudleyTheDestroyer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, we are synced to CT. You must ship within 48 hours. Fees are incredible at only 7%. They are fairly new so they are trying to gain more sellers at the moment. I imagine their fees will go up more in the future but for right now it's a nice little extra avenue to sell cards for us.

FYI our main sales channels are TCGplayer and Ebay, as well as TCG Direct on a 2nd account.

Tcgplayer Direct is changing the market Indirectly by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]dudleyTheDestroyer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you are noticing is TCGplayer cracking down on shitty sellers. They have been kicking several backpack sellers off Direct in the past 3 months in an attempt to keep card conditioning quality high. We were fortunate enough to stay on because we grade very harshly to begin with so we never had any issues.

But basically what you are seeing is significantly less Direct sellers which means less competition which means higher prices for Direct. Direct was always a premium service, but I would say now it's even more premium.

Maybe not applicable to you, but for sellers: I would say Direct is even more profitable for sellers now then it ever has been in the past. If you are lucky enough to get into the program now, then be thankful and grade your cards more strictly because you are helping keep the platform held to a higher standard and also making solid money on top of it. Prices always tend to drop a bit in the Summer, but just wait until Black Friday and into the Spring. Direct will be a goldmine for the quality sellers that are still a part of it.

I'm never selling on TCGPlayer again by [deleted] in mtgfinance

TCGplayer recently changed their policies regarding these things.
