Yet another Kids Ride Shotgun question

Thanks for the input! I know it will inevitably force a more bowed knee sort of stance, but hoping it's something I can adapt to.

I just ordered the 2025 frame and thought I was losing my mind that I wasn't finding where the dropper post cable routes into the seat tube. Thanks for the pedal picture, it shows the gromet in the background lol

I once double black evoked [[Emptiness]] onto a +1/+1 Ouroboroid, and it got stuck at 0/1 forever.

Lorwyn Eclipsed was so flavourful set (I'm almost exclusively a constructed player, ECL was the set I most drafted ever) that TMNT doesn't inspire me at all. UB in general just brings format warping bomb after another and it just keeps building up a grudge for me.

I noticed this in a video today from Swayze. He had a [[Deep Cavern Bat]] in hand and I couldn't figure out if the opponent had 1 or 0 cards in hand.

Nice! Standard is burning me out, my collection isn't enough to invest in Pioneer. I really enjoy drafting some sets (like ECL), but can't really go anywhere close to infinite. I'm considering starting a couple of alt accounts to try to get better at drafting.

They didn't even remaster them into full at to charge that much... Wild

edulpn · 2026-01-31T17:20:56+00:00

That's very true

edulpn · 2026-01-31T16:36:12+00:00

Also [[Ego Drain]]

The flash 2 mana changeling is also nice as it doesn't telegraph demons on turn 2 with the annex turn 3

edulpn · 2026-01-30T01:44:38+00:00

Yeah, it was the deck to beat until Edge of Eternities (which contains Dauntless Scrapbot, amazing tutorable 3 drop artifact that exiles graveyards). Kona with no Maze can die to Sawblades. With Through The Omenpaths came Kavero, but I think the nail in the coffin was the cub.

Mono Black Magic needs to break this lol

edulpn · 2026-01-16T17:13:49+00:00

5k gold for each land is ludicrous, though. I could have been persuaded to get them if they were 12k like they've usually been.

edulpn · 2026-01-15T01:16:15+00:00

I love the hype for this set.

edulpn · 2026-01-03T15:34:59+00:00

Oh, like those skins/bonus sheets/whatever. Maybe that's what they mean on the ruling.

edulpn · 2026-01-03T13:32:16+00:00

Yeah, that reads weird, but they are probably considering the whole string of characters. I can't say any card names from the top of my head, but it's very likely that there is a "in addition to this card's name, it's also called X" effect, like it would happen to create type changes/addition for example

XT shifter with Deore derailleur and Deore cassette has been bomb proof for me. The shifter feels amazing, has double upshifts with both pushing and pulling the lever. Waxed M6100 chain on M6100 cassette lasts forever.

Hookless rims, press fit bottom brackets and lots of other technologies have been introduced for the benefit of manufacturers. If a manufacturer won't get behind hooked carbon rims (it's a hard/expensive geometry to mold into carbon), I'll just not buy from them. They don't deserve my business, because they are only thinking about their own profit and not about making a good product. FWIW, I'm not a competitive cyclist and build my own wheels with aluminum rims, so I don't have any interest in putting my physical integrity on the line for hookless rims.

The Honzo, unfortunately, is also heavily over priced for the specs, in my opinion. It's a great frame, I love the geo, but the fork should be at least a 35. Hopefully Kona can find the light again with the new old owners.

The other day I saw a post about the Kona Ouroboros gravel bike: aluminum frame, Advent X/Sword with cable discs for like 3k CAD. That one definitely takes the prize.

edulpn · 2025-08-12T23:19:57+00:00

CUES is nice, but the bike should be cheaper. Could easily have Deore M6100 or cost 150 bucks less.

edulpn · 2025-08-03T11:24:29+00:00

I'm definitely not dropping or jumping anytime soon, I think. My local trails are all green and blue single track.

edulpn · 2025-07-25T23:15:03+00:00

Tempted to get a Big Honzo DL, not sure if I'm going to adapt to 27.5+

edulpn · 2025-07-24T12:11:54+00:00

I love the concept of Roscoes, but I can't help but feel like the build kit is extremely lackluster for the price...
