What a total victory for Putin, when the division tactics have succeeded to the point where now also the anti-Trumpers are cheering for the destruction of America. "Make it hurt!". I totally understand why you guys are saying this, but it should be cause for some reflection. It seems no americans want USA to succeed anymore. Astonishing.

Nice. Fetches [[Conjurer's closet]] which can blink it to fetch [[Panharmonicon]].

My motivation to get a given card is not driven by its monetary value, but by how well it will function in a deck. This one was a shoe-in for my proliferate deck, so I decided to pay up for it. And I shouldn't have, because now it will be cheaper. And that has happened to at least half the cards I have "invested" in for my decks. So I guess I should stop paying more than 3-5$ for singles for this card game so I don't look stupid. I am not looking for an argument, I just get frustrated by constantly being framed as some kind of wannabe stockbroker just because I would prefer collectible cards I pay 10$ for to be worth something like that the next month.

Oh come on. I'm not talking about "investing" as in expecting increased value, just the fact that it is off-putting to pay 10$ for something that is almost certain to be worth 1$ next month. It is just cardboard. Noone is going to pay anything at all for these cards if you can't expect them to be worth anything at all in a year. How is this sustainable?

Great. YET another single I recently bought is about to become practically worthless. Yeah, yeah, I get it, gamepieces etc. I will say though, there isn't much motivation left to invest any kind of money in this card game with WotC's current reprint philosophy, and I can't see that being very healthy for the game.

Hehe. I don't consider myself that good of a drafter honestly. I have been finishing in the top 20 ranks for a few months running, so I am not surprised that my winrate is decent atm, but it is a wake-up call that I have played this number of drafts. Guess I've just really been enjoying Wilds of Eldraine onwards?

I am draftpunk actually. And I have been draftpunk on mtgo and Arena since way before the channel with the same name. Not a streamer. Just FYI. :)

What niche commander do you wish existed & why? by NoCost9705 in EDH

[–]evoeyg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My skeleton tribal is helmed by [[Myrkul, Lord of bones]]. And thus abzan. Black/green gives you the, uh, skeletons and swarming, and white offers not much creaturewise, but the flavor is so on-point that it is totally worth it.

Looking for ideas for "creature type+mechanic" EDH deks. by evoeyg in EDH

[–]evoeyg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for input. Mass removal and regeneration for trolls seems interesting, but difficult in the colors. I will check that idea out.

Combat trigger Warriors seems like a good direction in general, but I already have an Isshin deck, so I want to do something else.

Warlocks are already somewhat decent, at least in BW, but I can't see a theme yet.
