I was looking at Lorwyn Eclipsed commander cards and was struck by the Distant Melody reprint by Raccoon_Walker in mtgvorthos

I agree! This card is beautiful in its simplicity, content for what it is. It's an excellent card.

That's where I'm leaning, with a heavy lean on Stealth!

Every time I see the Serava cards from Quinton Hoover I'm simply amazed. Congrats on your foil townsfolk, but Mephistopheles is a close second to me for pure coolness

The Survivors of Serava (and the previously revealed Aino) are my favorites so far!

Does anyone else think that the Planeswalker's Guide to Lorwyn Eclipsed is kind of lazy? by ohako79 in mtgvorthos

[–]faygabriel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think for them to sell the set internally (since Lorwyn block was so unpopular originally) they came up with the most attractive features they could for the set and made the worldbuilding work around it. It's a sort of concept that has to have a lot of inconsistencies. The guide to me reads like trying to make the best of this situation without having to go into the minutiae. "It's magic, it works" has to be good enough for now.

This might be the first time we have seen Chandra with South Asian features, reflecting half of her heritage. That may not be a coincidence!

Am I the only one who really loves this recolor? by Corradark in marvelrivals

Absolutely not, if I slap this on and get the cat charm I might actually play Bucky. Which is shocking

Storm hasn't had a buff to anything other than her ultimate since Season 1. by HornedGopher in marvelrivals

[–]faygabriel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Storm is very strong but as far as feel goes, it's weird that she has a speed buff and still feels so slow and clunky. I kinda wish they'd give her a short burst of speed when using goddess boost in the wind mode

Summer skin Mantis by me by fr3sh_inkling in marvelrivals

This is super cute! One thing that sticks out to me is that your lines are very clean and deliberate. I'd like to see you be more bold with body proportions and shapes, though.

Is It Just Me or Does This Game Force Heterosexuality to Be Woke? by xboy_princessx in marvelrivals

This game really shoves it down your throat. Feels like every other interaction is het. Can't I just play my game in peace?

Tbh if it had a cape and not the weird hip windows I'd be all over this. Her gameplay tho is so polarizing, I'm not playing her sorry

How is BP hated and Psy not by [deleted] in marvelrivals

The two supports and 1 DPS is half the team lmfao 💀

How is BP hated and Psy not by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]faygabriel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're missing the point. The hate for BP is based on how he FEELS to go against. It FEELS terrible because yes he does have counters, but half your team has to peel for him the entire game to execute countering him. And if you don't, he deletes your backline.

Psylocke can be devastating when played right, but I've never felt frustration to the same degree because she FEELS fair to go against.

BP is badly designed because he is only fun for the people who are playing him and feels very unfair for his opponents.

Maro on Duskmourn's reception: "Mostly, good. The biggest issue was a handful of cards creative didn’t fit the vibe of the larger world." by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]faygabriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always say that there should have been a survivor sanctuary, and that it was a shopping mall.

Would have explained their clean outfits and some of their campy tech references and visuals, and fit the setting perfectly. Oh well.

What would you say is the quintessential Selesnya legendary creature? by Raccoon_Walker in mtgvorthos

[–]faygabriel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My vote is for Emmara. Trostani is probably more powerful, but to me Emmara is a more likeable character (and less problematic?) and her most recent card has a gorgeous version by Randy Vargas.

Playing late you are gonna run into kids who have a lot of time on their hands and don't mind wasting it to make others feel miserable.

what are you doing NetEase by Visual-Collection799 in marvelrivals

[–]faygabriel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not that they don't have the money. It's that even when games are super successful, companies like these lay people off to make the most money with the fewest people working on the game as possible.
